Exercise No. 5 

In a forest near the ‘‘Narmada’’ River lived an old elephant named ‘‘Gajraj’’. 
He was known for his calm nature and thoughtful ‘‘character’’. 
Whenever animals faced trouble, they went to him for ‘‘advice’’. 
One summer, the river began to ‘‘dry’’ and the animals grew worried. 
Gajraj suggested that they share water wisely and dig small ‘‘pits’’ to collect rainwater. 

Meanwhile, a clever crow named ‘‘Kalu’’ lived nearby. 
He believed in acting fast rather than ‘‘waiting’’. 
Kalu flew to villages and dropped small ‘‘stones’’ into pots to raise water levels. 
In the end, both approaches helped the forest ‘‘survive’’ the summer. 

By comparing Gajraj and Kalu’s approaches, students learn how patience and cleverness both lead to success.
