1 ELA Grade 3 Unit Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. The Secret Treasure Paco was a poor farmer who lived in the village of Mesa. He worked very hard to take care of his family. Every day Paco went out into the field and fed the animals. He also took care of his vegetable garden. Unfortunately, his cow was skinny, his sick chickens did not lay enough eggs, and his pigs were small. Paco, Paco," said his wife Maria. "We need more food. Our children are hungry." "Maria, Maria," answered Paco. "I need more help. I am so tired." Paco did not know what to do. He could not do all of the work himself. He also did not have any money to pay for help. Paco decided to go ask the old Wiseman for help. He rode on his donkey for many miles to see if the Wiseman could help him. After three days, he finally made it to the village of Rico. The Wiseman lived in the center of the town of Rico. When he came to the house of the Wiseman, he knocked three times. He heard a creak as the Wiseman slowly opened the door. "How can I help you?" asked the Wiseman. "Oh, Wiseman, I am a poor farmer. I need your help. I am very tired and my family is hungry." "Hmmm," said the Wiseman. "I will tell you what you must do, but you will have to travel very far." "Whatever you say," Paco replied. "You must take your donkey and go to Mount Diego. At the top of the mountain is a secret cave. Take three steps into the cave and you will find a treasure. When you find the treasure, you must not tell anyone. You must keep it a secret. If you tell anyone, your good fortune will disappear."

2 "Thank you, Wiseman. I will go to Mount Diego and find the treasure." So Paco, who was very tired, rode his donkey up Mount Diego. As the sun was setting, he finally found the cave. It was very dark and Paco was scared. He knew that he had to fight his fear and go in. He did as the Wiseman said. He took three steps into the cave. Right before his eyes was a bag of gold. Paco was so excited. He would finally be able to take care of his hungry family. Paco took the gold and quickly went down the mountain. As he passed people along the way, he wanted to tell them what he found. He was so happy. Every time he passed someone, he remembered what the Wiseman had said. He kept his treasure a secret. After three more days, Paco arrived at home. "Paco, Paco, you are back," cried Maria. "We missed you. The children are so hungry. What can be done?" Paco did not want his good fortune to disappear, so he did not say anything. Late that night, Paco quietly left town with his cow, chicken, and pig. He took them to the poor farmer Julio and gave them away. Julio was very happy. Later, he went to the rich farmer, Antonio. He bought several of his best cows, best pigs, and best chickens. He arrived home that night without making any noise. The next morning, Maria woke up early to feed the animals. "Paco, Paco, come quick!" yelled Maria. "We have more cows, pigs, and chickens." "Maria, Maria, our dreams have come true!" Paco shouted. From then on, Paco and his family had plenty of food. He kept his secret in his heart and he was happy for the Wiseman's help.

The Shepherd Boy and the Wolf A shepherd boy tended his master's sheep near a dark forest not far from the village. Soon he found life in the pasture very dull. All he could do to amuse himself was to talk to his dog or play on his shepherd's pipe. One day, he sat watching the sheep in the quiet forest, and began thinking about what he would do if he should see a wolf. All at once, he thought of a plan to amuse himself. His master had told him to call for help should a wolf attack the flock. Upon hearing his call, the villagers would drive it away. So now, though he had not seen anything that even looked like a wolf, he ran toward the village shouting at the top of his voice, "Wolf! Wolf!" As he expected, the villagers who heard the cry dropped their work and ran in great excitement to the pasture. But when they got there, they found the boy doubled up with laughter at the trick he had played on them. A few days later the shepherd boy again shouted, "Wolf! Wolf!" Again, the villagers ran to help him. But once again, the boy laughed at them. Then one evening, the sun was setting behind the forest and the shadows were creeping out over the pasture. From the underbrush, a wolf sprung up and fell upon the sheep. In terror, the boy ran toward the village shouting, "Wolf! Wolf!" But, though the villagers heard the cry, they did not run to help him as they had before. "He cannot fool us again," they said. The wolf killed a great many of the boy's sheep and then slipped away into the forest.
