About the story
Everything begins when Priam is the King of Troy, and Hecuba is his queen.
At first, things go well for them. They have a daughter – Cassandra – and later, a son – Hector. Then, after some more years, they have a second son.
His name is Paris.
But when this child arrives,ย Hecuba is not happy.
โWhatโs wrong?โย Priam asks.
โIโm afraid,โ Hecuba answers. โI see Troy in flames years from now – because Paris brings disaster to us.โ
Priam takes away his young son fast.
He speaks quietly to one of his men, Agelaus. โTake this child into the mountains. He must die there.โ
So Agelaus takes Paris to Mount Ida. But he cannot kill the young boy there.
โYou can live here with me. And help with the sheep when youโre older,โ Agelaus says.
He gives the child to one of the women in his country house. Then he goes back to Troy. He gives a dead dogโs heart to Priam and says, โMy king, your son is dead. Hereโs his heart.โ
โGood work, Agelaus,โ Priam smiles.
As for me, I think that a short story is the best way to study English. So, can you do more short stories?
This is very amazing story for improve quality speaking skills
