SOAL-SOAL NARRATIVE
A fox fell into a well and couldnt get out. By and by a thirsty goat came along. Seeing the fox in the well it asked if the water was good. Good, said the fox. Its the best water Ive tasted in all my life. Come down and try it yourself. The goat thought of nothing but how thirsty he was. So he jumped into the well. When he had drunk enough he looked around but there was no way to get out. Then the fox said, I have a good idea. You stand on your hind legs and put your forelegs against the side of the well. Then Ill climb on your back, from there Ill step on your horns, and I can get out. And when Im out Ill help you out of the well. The goat did as he was asked and the fox got on his back and so out of the well. Then he coolly walked away. The goat called out loudly after him out. The fox merely turned to him and said, If you only has as much sense in your head as you have hairs in your beard you wouldnt have jumped into the well without making sure that you could get out again. 1. a. b. c. d. e. 2.

Text 2 This text is for no. 6 to 12 SANGKURIANG A long time ago, the ancient land of Sunda was ruled by a king and queen who had but a single daughter. Her name was Dayang Sumbi. She was beautiful and clever but also pampered and spolited. One day as she was weaving in her pavilion, she became moody and distracted, which caused her to keep dropping her shuttle on the floor. Once when it fell she exclaimed she would marry the one who gave it back to her. At that very moment her dog Tumang, a demigod possessing magic powers, came up to her with the shuttle in his mouth. Dayang Sumbi had to marry him. They lived happily together, and Dayang Sumbi gave birth to a baby boy, human in appearance but endowed with his fathers magic powers. She named him Sangkuriang. As the boy grew up, he was always guarded by the faithful dog Tumang, whom he knew only as a companion and not as his father, Sangkuriang became handsome and brave. One day his mother asked him to go hunting with the dog and bring her venison for a feast. After hunting all day without success, Sangkuriang worried about facing his mother empty-handed. Desperate, he took an arrow and shot the dog. He returned home and handed over the meat to his pleased mother. Soon after the feast, however, Dayang Sumbi questioned her son about the absence of Tumang. At first he evaded her queries but finally told her what had happened. She was horrified and struck her son so hard on the temple that he collapsed. For that, the old king banished his daughter from the court and she was made to roam around the kingdom. Sangkuriang recovered with a large scar on his temple, and he too left the court to wander about the world. Years later, Sangkuriang met a beautiful woman and instantly fell in love with her. It was his own motherthey did not recognize each other. He pro posed to her and she agreed to marry him. On the day before the wedding, as she was caressing her fiancees hair, Dayang Sumbi detected the scar on the temple. Horror struck her, for she was about to marry her own son, Sangkuriang. Without revealing the whole truth to him, she tried unsuccessfully to dissuade him. Desperate to avoid the marriage, she set conditions she thought impossible to meet. Sangkuriang had to make a lake that filled the whole valpley and build a boat for the couple to sail in, all before dawn. Sangkuriang started to work. His love gave him extraordinary strength, and he used his magic powers to summon the spirits to help him. With boulders and mud they dammed the river in the valley and the water rose and began to form a lake. In the early morning hours he chopped down a huge tree in the forest and began hollowing it out to make a boat. When Dayang Sumbi saw that he was about to accomplish what she has thought impossible, she called on the gods to bring the sun up early and thwart Sangkuriang. The cock crowed, the sun rose much earlier than usual, and Sangkuriang realized he had been deceived. In a fit of fury he caused Dayang Sumbi and kicked the half-finished boat back into the forest. There it lies upside down today, forming the mountain Tangkuban Perahu (Upturned Boat). Not far away is the stump of the tree Sangkuriang had felled, now called Bukit Tinggi. The dam Sangkuriang had built caused the

valley to become a lake, where both Sangkuriang and Dayang Sumbi drowned themselves. They were never heard of again. (taken from All Around Bandung Gottfrid Roelcke, Gary Crabb).

There was a princess standing outside, but what a sight the rain and the bad weather had made of her ! The water streamed down her hair and her clothes, and yet she said she was a real princess.

It wont take long to find that out, thought the old Queen. Without saying anything, she went into bed chamber, took off all the bedclothes, and places one pea on the bottom boards of the bed. Then she took twenty mattresses and put them on top of the pea, and after that she put twenty feather-pillows on top of the mattresses. That was where the princess was to spend the night. In the morning they asked her how she had slept. Oh, dreadfully! said the princess. I hardly slept a wink all night. Whatever could have been in the bed ? I was lying on something so hard that Im black and blue all over. So of course they could see that she was a real princess, since she had felt the pea through twenty mattresses and twenty feather-pillows.
