Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her favorite story.
One night when he finished the story, he said, Jenny, could you give me your necklace?
Oh! Daddy, not my necklace! Jenny said. But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. Okay?
Oh no, darling, thats okay. Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss. Good night, little one.
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny for the necklace after her favorite story. Oh, Daddy, not my necklace! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her? Shes my favorite.
No, thats okay, her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams.
Several days later, when Jennys father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling. Here, Daddy, she said, holding out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her fathers hand.
With one hand her father held the plastic pearl necklace and with the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue box. Inside the box was a real, beautiful pearl necklace. He had had it all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap necklace so he could give her a real one.
56. What did Jenny have to do to get the plastic pearl necklace?
A. She had to help her mother do some housework.
