Once upon a time there was a prince
who wanted to marry a princess; but she would have to be a real princess. He
traveled all over the world to find one, but nowhere could he get what he
wanted. There were princesses enough, but it was difficult to find out whether
they were real ones. There was always something about them that was not as it
should be. So he came home again and was sad, for he would have liked very much
to have a real princess.
One evening a terrible storm came on;
there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents. Suddenly
a knocking was heard at the city gate, and the old king went to open it.
It was a princess standing out there
in front of the gate. But, good gracious! What a sight the rain and the wind
had made her look. The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down
into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels. And yet she said that
she was a real princess.
“Well, we’ll soon find that out,”
thought the old queen. But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all
the bedding off the bedstead, and laid a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty
mattresses and laid them on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of
the mattresses.
On this the princess had to lie all
night. In the morning she was asked how she had slept.
“Oh, very badly!” said she. “I have
scarcely closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I
was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body. It’s
horrible!”
Now they knew that she was a real
princess because she had felt the pea right through the twenty mattresses and
the twenty eider-down beds.
Nobody but a real princess could be as
sensitive as that.
So the prince took her for his wife,
for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put in the museum,
where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it.
There, that is a true story.
42.
What way did the old king use to know that
someone is the real princess?
A.
By laying the prince on the twenty
mattresses.
B.
By laying the pea on the mattresses.
C.
By asking the prince to meet the princess.
D.
By running down the water from the hair to
her toes.
E.
By laying the pea under the mattresses.
43.
What happened when the princess got up in
the morning?
A.
She felt pain on her body.
B.
She felt fresh and enthusiastic.
C.
She felt peace because she had slept all
night.
D.
She felt ashamed to the old king.
E.
She felt happy meeting the prince.
44.
Why was the pea put in the museum?
A.
Because the pea is very valuable.
B.
Because the pea is unique.
C.
Because the pea is very beautiful.
D.
Because the pea is fragrant.

Because the pea is only one in the world.
