The Practical Princess

Princess Bedelia was as lovely as the moon shining upon a lake full of water lilies. She was as graceful as a cat leaping. And she was also extremely practical, always ready to take actions instead of dead dreaming.

When she was born, three fairies came to her cradle to give her gifts as it was usual in that country. The first fairy gave her beauty. The second one gave her grace. But the third one , who was a wise old creature, said, "I' II give her common sense".

"I don't think much of that gift", said King Ludwig, raising his eye-brows. "What is good in hommon sense for a princesses? All she needs is charm".

But when Bedelia was eighteen years old, something happened that made king change his mind. A dragon moved into the neighbourhood. He settled in a dark cave on the top of mountain, and the first thing he did was to send a message to the king. "I must have a princess to eat up", the message said, "or I shall breathe out my fire and destroy the kingdom".

Sadly, Kind Ludwig called together his councilors, chosen to give advices, and read them the message. "Perhaps", said the Prime Minister, "we had better send for a knight to kill the dragon. That is what is generally done in these cases".

"I am afraid we haven't time", answered the king. The dragon has only given us time until tomorrow morning. There is no use in it. We shall have to send him the princess".

Princess Bedelia had come to the meeting because, as she said, she liked to mind her own business, and this was certainly her business. "Nonsense!" she said. "Dragons can't tell the difference between princess and anyone cause he's a snob".

"That may be so", said her father, "but if we don't send you along, he'll destroy the kingdom".

"Right!" said Bedelia. "I see I'll have to deal with this myself. She left the room in which the council sat. She got the largest brightest one of her state dresses, filled it with straw, and into the center of the bundle she packed about a hundred pounds of gunpowder. She got two strong young men to carry it up the mountain for her. She stood in front of the dragon's cave and called: "Come out! Here's the princess!"

The dragon appeared looking out of the darkness with curiosity. Seeing the bright dress covered with gold and silver embroidery, and hearing Bedelia's voice, he opened his mouth widely. At once, at Bedelia's signal, the two young men threw the dress right down the dragon's throat. Bedelia threw herself flat on the ground, and the two young men ran.

As the gunpowder met the flames inside the dragon there was a great explosion. Bedelia got up, dusting herself off. "Dragons", she said "are not very bright".

She left the two young mer sweeping up the pieces, and she went to the castle to have her geography lesson, for as you know, she  was very practical!

The Face in the Mirror.

The play now at the New Theatre as part of the Easter Arts Festival is not among the
best plays for which the director, Amy Fielding, has been responsible.

The action takes place in the home of Professor Spear. One night his landlady comes to
the house for a chat. After inviting her in, the professor hears a sound and, thinking it is
a burglar come to rob the house, fires his gun. By mistake, the wrong person is shot and
the thief gets away. 

The scene of the second act is a law court, in which everyone waits to find out if the
professor is guilty of murder. I did not care for the acting in some cases. Norman Jones
is normally seen in comedy and is not satisfactory as the professor. He does not look
like a wise old man. Also, Simon Fry, as the servant, shouted at the top of his voice all
through the play. The hit of the evening, however, was James Smith as the judge. On
the whole, the play appeared to me to be a little out date. I can think of many other
plays which would have been more suitable for a group of clever young actors to
perform. The play continues until the end of the month.

1. This passage is from (A) a review of a play. (B) an introduction to a book (C) a letter.
(D) an advertisement

2. What is the writer trying to do? (A) Give advice to the writer of the play. (B) Warn
people not to go and see the play. (C) Give his own opinion to the play. (D) Persuade
the director to change the play.

3. The writer's opinion about the play was that (A) there were not enough actors tor
the parts. (B) the actors would have performed better in a modem play. (C) the play
was being performed at the wrong time of the year. (D) the play was a comedy, but the
audience did not find it amusing.

4. The writer thought the actor who played the professor was unsatisfactory because
(A) he made the audience laugh too much. (B) he did not look like a professor. (C) he
had the wrong kind of moustache. (D) he was not clever enough to play the part.

5. Who will probably enjoy the play?

(A) I dont care much for serious subjects. I like comedies, especially about the young.
Nonnan Jones is great, so young and lively. I like the way he jumps about the stage. He
never stands still.

(B) I only like going to the theatre when there's something on with a fot of songs. Simon
Fry is a good singer: I saw him in a show last year. I hope he'll be singing again when I
next go to the theatre.

(C) I really prefer plays with a good story. I like to wonder about what is going to happen
in the end. I like fights, but I like to see the guilty person punished in the end. I'm a great
fan of James Smith.' •

(D) I prefer modern plays. This director did one that I liked last year. There were a
group of actors on a bare stage without any scenery. It showed what was wrong with
modem society.
