What did Lightning want to do?

Read the passage and Answer the following question:
At one time, many hundreds of years ago, Lightining and Thunder lived upon the Earth. Lightining was a boy with a wicked temper. He struck anybody he didn’t like and sometimes set fire to their houses. His mother, Thunder, shouted at him, but her loud voice deafened everybody and made the trees shake.
    At last, people began to grumble to the king.
“We are tired of Lightning’s temper and Thunder’s shouts,” they said.
“You’d better live outside the village,” the king said to Thunder and Lightining. ”Then you cannot upset anyone.”
Everything was quiet for a time. Then Lighting started burning houses and trees again and Thunder scolded him with her loudest, thundery voice.
“They are still bothering us,” the people complained to the king.
The king grew angry.
“Thunder and Lightning", he said, ”stop annoying everybody. Take yourselves off to the mountains and do not show yourselves here again.”
Thunder and Lighting were furious. Their eyes flashed, but to everyone’s surprise, they obeyed and moved off, rumbling and grumbling.
It was peaceful then in the village, but Lighting wanted revenge. One day, he crept back down the mountainside. When he reached the village, he crackled and hissed and set the farmer’s corn alight. He kicked tall trees until they split in two. He set fire to haystacks and farmhouses, and even killed cows and horses in the fields.
Thunder came after her wicked son. She shouted and bellowed, and frightened the people. She shouted so loudl y that the ground shook, but Lightning took no notice. He went on flashing and crackling for hours and hours. Thunder screamed and roared until at last both of them were tired out.
The people could take it no longer and rushed off to tell the king.
“You must send Thunder and Lightning far away,” they said.” We do not want them anywhere near us.”
The king thought long and hard. Then he ordered Thunder and Lightning to come and stand before him.
“Lightning,” he said sternly, ”you have been very wicked. As for you, Thunder, your big voice frightens us all. From now on you must both live in the sky.”
Thunder and Lightning begged him to relent.
“I promise I’ll never be bad-tempered again, hissed Lightning.
“And I’ll speak softly,” Thunder said. But, of course, she could only shout!
“You’ll never be able to keep those promises,” the people said. ”You’ve burned our fields and our houses. We cannot forgive you.”
“How can you put us up into the sky?” hissed Lightning rudely
“Wait and see" said the king.
They did not have to wait long. Hundreds of birds flocked round – parakeets from the forest, long-legged flamingos, pelicans and vultures. They cackled and squawked. Then they picked mother and son up with their claws and beaks and held them tightly.Up, up, up, the birds flew, high above the clouds, and there they left Thunder and Lightning.

It was peaceful then in the village, but Lighting wanted revenge. One day, he crept back down the mountainside. When he reached the village, he crackled and hissed and set the farmer’s corn alight. He kicked tall trees until they split in two. He set fire to haystacks and farmhouses, and even killed cows and horses in the fields.
Thunder came after her wicked son. She shouted and bellowed, and frightened the people. She shouted so loudl y that the ground shook, but Lightning took no notice. He went on flashing and crackling for hours and hours. Thunder screamed and roared until at last both of them were tired out.
The people could take it no longer and rushed off to tell the king.
“You must send Thunder and Lightning far away,” they said.” We do not want them anywhere near us.”
The king thought long and hard. Then he ordered Thunder and Lightning to come and stand before him.
“Lightning,” he said sternly, ”you have been very wicked. As for you, Thunder, your big voice frightens us all. From now on you must both live in the sky.”
Thunder and Lightning begged him to relent.
“I promise I’ll never be bad-tempered again, hissed Lightning.
“And I’ll speak softly,” Thunder said. But, of course, she could only shout!
“You’ll never be able to keep those promises,” the people said. ”You’ve burned our fields and our houses. We cannot forgive you.”
“How can you put us up into the sky?” hissed Lightning rudely
“Wait and see" said the king.
They did not have to wait long. Hundreds of birds flocked round – parakeets from the forest, long-legged flamingos, pelicans and vultures. They cackled and squawked. Then they picked mother and son up with their claws and beaks and held them tightly.Up, up, up, the birds flew, high above the clouds, and there they left Thunder and Lightning.

How did the birds pick them?

At one time, many hundreds of years ago, Lightining and Thunder lived upon the Earth. Lightining was a boy with a wicked temper. He struck anybody he didn’t like and sometimes set fire to their houses. His mother, Thunder, shouted at him, but her loud voice deafened everybody and made the trees shake.
    At last, people began to grumble to the king.
“We are tired of Lightning’s temper and Thunder’s shouts,” they said.
“You’d better live outside the village,” the king said to Thunder and Lightining. ”Then you cannot upset anyone.”
Everything was quiet for a time. Then Lighting started burning houses and trees again and Thunder scolded him with her loudest, thundery voice.
“They are still bothering us,” the people complained to the king.
The king grew angry.
“Thunder and Lightning", he said, ”stop annoying everybody. Take yourselves off to the mountains and do not show yourselves here again.”
Thunder and Lighting were furious. Their eyes flashed, but to everyone’s surprise, they obeyed and moved off, rumbling and grumbling.

“How can you put us up into the sky?” hissed Lightning rudely
“Wait and see" said the king.
They did not have to wait long. Hundreds of birds flocked round – parakeets from the forest, long-legged flamingos, pelicans and vultures. They cackled and squawked. Then they picked mother and son up with their claws and beaks and held them tightly.Up, up, up, the birds flew, high above the clouds, and there they left Thunder and Lightning.

What is the meaning of revenge?

Read the passage and Answer the following question:
At one time, many hundreds of years ago, Lightining and Thunder lived upon the Earth. Lightining was a boy with a wicked temper. He struck anybody he didn’t like and sometimes set fire to their houses. His mother, Thunder, shouted at him, but her loud voice deafened everybody and made the trees shake.
    At last, people began to grumble to the king.
“We are tired of Lightning’s temper and Thunder’s shouts,” they said.
“You’d better live outside the village,” the king said to Thunder and Lightining. ”Then you cannot upset anyone.”
Everything was quiet for a time. Then Lighting started burning houses and trees again and Thunder scolded him with her loudest, thundery voice.
“They are still bothering us,” the people complained to the king.
The king grew angry.
“Thunder and Lightning", he said, ”stop annoying everybody. Take yourselves off to the mountains and do not show yourselves here again.”
Thunder and Lighting were furious. Their eyes flashed, but to everyone’s surprise, they obeyed and moved off, rumbling and grumbling.
It was peaceful then in the village, but Lighting wanted revenge. One day, he crept back down the mountainside. When he reached the village, he crackled and hissed and set the farmer’s corn alight. He kicked tall trees until they split in two. He set fire to haystacks and farmhouses, and even killed cows and horses in the fields.
Thunder came after her wicked son. She shouted and bellowed, and frightened the people. She shouted so loudl y that the ground shook, but Lightning took no notice. He went on flashing and crackling for hours and hours. Thunder screamed and roared until at last both of them were tired out.
The people could take it no longer and rushed off to tell the king.
“You must send Thunder and Lightning far away,” they said.” We do not want them anywhere near us.”
The king thought long and hard. Then he ordered Thunder and Lightning to come and stand before him.
“Lightning,” he said sternly, ”you have been very wicked. As for you, Thunder, your big voice frightens us all. From now on you must both live in the sky.”
Thunder and Lightning begged him to relent.
“I promise I’ll never be bad-tempered again, hissed Lightning.
“And I’ll speak softly,” Thunder said. But, of course, she could only shout!
“You’ll never be able to keep those promises,” the people said. ”You’ve burned our fields and our houses. We cannot forgive you.”
“How can you put us up into the sky?” hissed Lightning rudely
“Wait and see" said the king.
