Look at the picture and the title. Can you predict what the story will be about
huge
a secret door
on wheels
the wooden horse
Title: the night of the horse
what—when—why
When does the story take place
Perhaps it takes place at night.
What does the horse look like
It is a huge wooden horse on wheels.
Why is the horse on wheels
Probably because the wheels make it easier to move the horse.
Pre-reading
Make prediction
Look at the pictures below. What is happening in each picture, and what time is it
Think: What may happen
The night of the horse
The soldier came down the stairs—two at a time. “Captain, they’ve gone,” he cried. “The Greek soldiers have disappeared—all of them. I can’t see …” But the captain was no longer listening. He was going up the stairs—three at a time.
Seconds later, the captain stood on the high wall of the city of Troy. He looked down at the empty Greek camp and, beyond it, at the empty sea. “They’ve gone and we’ve won,” he said. “The Greek army has tried for ten years to capture our city. Now, they’ve sailed away and taken everything with them.”
“Not everything, sir,” the soldier said. “They’ve left their horse.” Outside the main gate of the city stood a huge wooden horse.
While-reading
“Ah, yes,” the captain said, “that wooden horse. It’s so big that they couldn’t take it with them. Well, it’s ours now. Get some help and pull it into the city. That won’t be difficult. It’s on wheels.”
“But why is it on wheels ” asked the soldier. “I think that maybe the Greeks want us to …”
The captain stopped him and said, “You’re a soldier. It’s not your job to think. Your job is to obey orders, and I’m giving you one now. Move that horse!” So the Trojans pulled the wooden horse into the city.
That night, all the Trojans celebrated their victory in the main square. They sang and danced around the horse, and made jokes about the stupid Greeks. Then they made sure all the gates of the city were locked, and went to bed.
By midnight, the main square was empty, except for the huge horse. Some Greek soldiers were hiding inside. They waited for another hour, to be sure. Then, very carefully, they opened the secret door on the horse’s side and climbed out. No guards were around so they quietly made their way to the main gate and let in the Greek soldiers waiting outside. These soldiers secretly came back while the Trojans were celebrating. Now the Greek army entered the city.
The Greeks spent ten years trying to take over the city of Troy. In the end, they succeeded in capturing it in just one night with a clever trick—and without any fighting.
