She carefully read the text. Then, answer the proposed interpretative questions:
The jaguar had promised to catch the rabbit at the first opportunity.
The rabbit, who was very smart, devised a plan to end the chase. He saw the jaguar approaching and began his plan. He picked up the machete and began to gather vines, hurried and anxious.
The jaguar thought that was very strange and asked:
– Why does a rabbit like you need so much vine?
– Well, you don't know, comadre jaguar? It turns out that Tupã is furious with all the animals in the forest and will send a terrible punishment! Soon begins the Day of the Final Wind!
– Day of the Final Wind?! - The jaguar was startled.
- What is it?
– This is going to be windy like never before in the world. So much so that no animal will be able to stand on the ground. It's all blown up!
- How horrible! – the dumb jaguar was horrified. – And what can you do?
- Anyone who is not silly has to ask someone to tie him tightly tied to a very thick tree. I'm gathering these vines here and I'm running home to tie up all my little children!
The jaguar was terrified:
– Help me, bunny friend! I don't want to be blown away by the gale. Tie me up first!
– Sorry, comadre jaguar, but I can't. I have to run home and tie up my little kids.
– Don't do this to me, compadre rabbit, please! Tie me up!
The jaguar insisted so much that the rabbit, after pretending to refuse, just to hide it, ended up “agreeing”. He tied the damn jaguar very well tied, with a lot of vines, to the strongest tree in the forest!
And he went home happy, leaving the dumb jaguar very well tied up and very satisfied, waiting for the wind that would never appear...
