Once upon a time, there was a train that loved to travel. On one of its trips, it met an ant carrying an apple. The train asked the ant where he was going and the ant replied, "I'm taking this delicious apple to my friend, the tiger."
The train was curious, so it asked if it could come along and meet the tiger. The ant said yes, so the train followed the ant.
On the way, they came across a car that was stuck in a ditch. The ant and the train decided to help the car out of its predicament. They worked together and finally managed to get the car back on the road.
The car was grateful and offered to give them a ride to the tiger's place. The ant and the train happily agreed, and soon they arrived at the tiger's house.
The tiger was having a party with his friends, the turtle and the cat. They were playing games and eating slices of apple (the same apple the ant brought) at the table. The turtle had spilled some juice and was trying to clean it up with a cup.
The train was so excited to join in the fun that it let out a loud whistle, which made everyone jump! But then everyone laughed and welcomed the train to the party.
From that day on, the train, the ant, the car, the tiger, the turtle, the table, the cat, and the cup were great friends and had many more adventures together.

3. How did everyone react when the train let out a whistle?
4. How do you think the story would have been different if the ant had not met the train?
5. What did everyone do at the party?
