The jackrabbit is a type of wild hare found in the western parts of North America. Its strong hind legs allow it to leap up to 20 feed or 6 meters in a single bound! The jackrabbit uses a combination of zig-zags and leaps to outrun predators. At top, jackrabbit can reach 45 miles or 72 kilometers per hour.

Once upon a time (ժուկով-ժամանակով) there lived a king. This king announced (հայտարարեց) throughout the land:

“I will give half my kingdom (թագավորությանս կեսը) to the man who can tell a lie that I can agree that is a lie.”

A shepherd (հովիվ) came and said, “My father has got a pipe (ծխամորճ). The pipe is very long and he can stir (խառնել) the stars with it».

“That’s possible,” answered the King. “My grandfather had a pipe. He used to (սովորություն ուներ) put one end of it in his mouth and stretch (ձգել) the other up to the sun to light it.”

The man went out scratching (քորելով) his head.

A tailor came and said, “I am sorry, O King, to have come so late. Wind (քամի), storm (փոթորիկ) and lightning (կայծակ) did not let me come early”. I was patching up the crack (ճեղք) of the sky.

“Oh, “I believe it is true” said the King, “but you haven’t patched it very well, for it rained a little again this morning.

This man also went away empty-handed (դատարկաձեռն).

A villager came in with a bag on his shoulder. “What do you want, my good man?” asked the King. “You owe (պարտք լինել) me a bag of gold. I have come for it.” “A bag of gold!” exclaimed (բացականչեց)the King astonished (զարմացած). “That s a lie (սուտ). I do not owe you anything.”

“All right. It is a lie. Then give me half your kingdom.”

“No, no. You’re quite right (Դուք միանգամայն ճիշտ եք). It’s not a lie,” the king tried to correct (ուղղել) himself.

“So I am telling the truth. Then give me the bag of gold.”

Once upon a time there were two sisters and a brother. Their mother decided to make a cake for Christmas and asked Ann to bring honey. Ann went and didn’t come back. Mother called Liza and asked to find her sister. Liza went and didn’t come back. So, mother asked Alexander to bring the honey. Alexander joined his sisters who were in the basement. They all were so happy as they found Christmas gifts. Mother and father asked them to go home and have a Christmas dinner together.

Merry Christmas to everyone!

I wish you all health, success, happy and peaceful life.

Dear Santa,

THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Once upon a time there was a little fir tree in a forest in Norway. It was a very small tree and it did not grow. The other trees near it were so high and had such big branches that the poor little fir tree could not grow into a big high tree. There were oak trees, pine trees, and birches around the little fir tree. They were all very useful to people. But the little tree was not useful to anybody and it became very sad. One day the fir tree asked the other trees, “Do you know how a small fir tree could be useful?” Some of the trees were too proud to answer such a little tree. But the birch tree was a kind tree and it said. “You could be a Christmas tree, but that is all.” “What is a Christmas tree?” asked the little tree. “I don’t know,” replied the birch tree, “but once a year, in winter, men come and look at all the little fir trees and choose the prettiest for a Christmas tree. They chop it down but I don’t know what they do with it.” “I could be useful to some people”, thought the little fir tree. It was happy now and waited for Christmas Day. At last that frosty winter day came. A boy with an axe walked through the forest. He stopped in front of the little fir tree, then he chopped it down and took it home. “This will be the Christmas tree,” he told his brothers. The next day the boys put it in a big room and decorated it with balloons, paper bells and golden balls. Their mother put some candles on the branches of the tree and lit them. “It’s the most beautiful Christmas tree!” cried one of the boys. All the family gathered around the tree. They joined hands and began to sing songs and dance. They all were happy. But the little Christmas tree was the happiest. “I hope I shall not drop any of these beautiful things which the children put on me. I shall give joy and happiness to them. I am happy because I am useful now,” thought the little Christmas tree.

The Wind and the Sun

The wind and the sun are having a disagreement. 
“I am the most powerful!” says the wind.
“No, I am the most powerful!” says the sun.

“I can blow trees to the ground!” . “I can push ships across the ocean.

“Is that right?” replies the sun. “Well, I can melt all the snow on the mountains. I can dry up a lake.

Just then, they see a man walking along the road in his winter jacket .

“Let’s have a contest to see who is more powerful,” says the wind. “Whoever can remove the man’s jacket first wins.” 

The sun agrees.
The wind goes first. He blows a gust of cold wind at the man. 

The man shivers and zips up his jacket. “Brrr! What a cold and windy day!” 

It starts to rain. The wind blows even harder and turns the rain into snow.

“Well look at that! It’s snowing!” says the man. “Snow wasn’t in the weather forecast today…”
He pulls his hood over his head.

The wind blows his strongest gust towards the man, but the man’s jacket stays on.
«Hmm. It’s a bit fresh today…” he says. “A winter storm must be coming…» He zips the jacket higher to cover his nose.

“Gah! This is impossible,” says the wind. He stops blowing.
“My turn!” says the sun. 

First the sun shines enough to stop the snow. The man unzips his hood.

Then the sun pulls the clouds apart and gently shines down on the man. Suddenly, it is a beautiful spring day.

“Wow. The weather sure is strange around here!” says the man. He unzips his jacket. 

The sun gently wiggles her fingers and increases the temperature. 

“What strange weather. Now it feels like summer!” the man says as he begins to sweat. «Goodness me, it’s so hot!»

He removes his winter jacket. He lies down on the grass for a nap in the warm sun.

«I win!» says the sun, beaming.
