H. Read the following paragraph .
It was the last night of the year. It was snowing heavily and the ominous sky had grown dark. A poor little girl was walking bare-foot through the streets trying to find people to buy her matches. She had had slippers on when she left home. But they were too big. She had lost them when she crossed the wide and deep street. So then she continued walking along without her slippers.
The sad girl looked as thin as the matches that she was selling. She had already been walking in the wind and snow for a whole day. No one had bought anything from her; no one had given her even a copper penny. She was shivering with cold, yet she did not dare to go home. If she did not bring money home, her father would beat her. Besides, her home was as cold as the street.
As her legs could no longer carry her, she sat down at the corner of the street. How fine it would be if she had a little fire before her! She drew a match from the box and struck it against the wall. Oh, how it burned! The girl struck one match after another. It really seemed as if she was sitting by a great beautiful stove. When the little fire was burning, in her imagination she saw a lot of fine things: a Christmas tree, a goose, and so on. It also seemed to her that her long dead grandmother was standing by her. She was the only person who had been good to her.
The next day the New Year’s sun was shinning upon the little body that was lying there with the pile of burned matches. The poor girl had gently frozen to death on the last day of the Old Year.
