 He said :
- "We are all pleased that you are now free, but you must understand that this is only because of
the difficult situation in Lilliput " .
" there are two problems in our country at this time.
 The 1st problem is inside the country :
 - There has been a great argument between the 2 main political groups :
 The Tramecksan , believe that people should wear high heels on their shoes
because this is the country's tradition.
 The Slamecksan , believe that People should wear low heels
because this is more modern.
- The King wants to wear low heels and has told all his men to do the same.
- although his son the Prince likes to wear high heels."

The result :
- The ( 2 ) political groups refuse to talk to each other.

 "The other problem's outside the country "
- The King is worried that Lilliput will be attacked by their enemies from ( Blefuscu ) .
- This island was nearly as large and as powerful as Lilliput.
Reldresal : explained how the war began.
- The traditional way to break an egg in Lilliput is to break it at the larger end.
- the King's grandfather, cut his finger when opening an egg in this way.
So he introduced a law that everyone should break their eggs at the smaller end.
- This law is not popular and there were many rebellions because of it.
- The rebellions were never successful, and the people who took part in them always ran
away to Blefuscu, where they were welcomed as friends.
Because of this , a war began between the two countries.
 Gullicer's opinion of this war : this sounded ridiculous.
 Their loses in the war :
- Lilliput lost ( 40 ) ships and around ( 30 000 ) soldiers.
- Although Blefuscu has lost a similar number of people, it seems that they are planning to
attack Lilliput any day soon."

" he is ready to help to defend their country from any coming attack."
Reldresal was happy. " I'm very pleased to hear this. I'll inform the King at once. "

Chapter 3
 Blefuscu an island about ( 800 ) m to the northeast of Lilliput.
 Why Gulliver decided not to go to this side of the island :
 After Reldresal had told Gulliver about a possible attack ,
- he decided not to go to that side of the island in case he was seen by the enemies of Lilliput.
-There was no communication between the 2 countries, so they didn't know anything about him.
 Gulliver's plan to end the war :
He could easily take all of Blefuscu's fleet of ships.
 Carrying out the plan :
- Gulliver asked a sailor about the depth of water between the 2 islands & it was about 2 m deep.
- That afternoon, He walked to the northeast of Lilliput
- and lay down on some fields next to the coast so that he could not be seen from Blefuscu.
- He used his pocket telescope to look at the island.
- He could see about ( 50 ) ships, and some smaller boats, in a small harbour.
 What he asked for to carry the ships :
1- He asked for some strong chains & ( 50 ) metal poles.
2- He shaped the poles into large hooks and fastened them onto the chains.
3- He took off his shoes and socks and walked into the cold sea.
4- He could walk for most of the way but He had to swim a little where it was deepest.
9
- He arrived in about half an hour.
 What was the feeling of the peple of Blefusco :
 When the people of Blefuscu saw him, they were terrified.
 Sailors jumped from the ships and swam as fast as they could to the shore.
 Gulliver arrived in Blefuscu :
 He fastened the metal hooks onto each ship and tied the chains together.
 When he began to pull the chains, the ships didn't move
and he realised that they were tied to the harbour wall.
 So he took a knife and cut all the ropes.
 He was able to pull all 50 boats away from the harbour.
 What the soldiers were doing :
 While he was doing this, Blefuscu's soldiers started to shoot arrows at him from the shore.
 The arrows hit his arms and hands, but his main worry was for his eyes,
so he put on the glasses which were hidden in his pocket.
The soldiers suddenly stopped shooting and watched in great surprise when they realised what
was happening. they could do nothing.
 Gulliver returned to Lilliput :
 When Gulliver reached Lilliput he said , " Long live the king of Lilliput ! "
 The King saw him and laughed.
 Gulliver's reward :
 Gulliver was welcomed back like a hero.
 The King gave him the most important medal in the land.

10. Mr . Hany Ahmed
10
 The king's ambitions to Gulliver :
 The King, with Gulliver's help, could easily take control of all of BIcfuscu.
and  put all of his enemies in prison, including the people from Lilliput who still wanted
to open their eggs at the larger end.
 Gulliver's opposition :
Gulliver said " Your Majesty, I do not want the free people of Blefuscu to become prisoners.
I cannot help you with your ambitions "
 The king's response :
 The king did not look pleased.
 Gulliver was surprised how quickly the King's opinion of him changed.
 Gulliver was beginning to get many enemies.
 Despite his brave visit to Blefuscu, his situation in Lilliput had become more dangerous.
 A visit from Blefuscu :
 A group of ( 6 ) officials from Blefuscu came to meet the King.
 They asked what they could do to end the war peacefully
 They asked to meet the enormous man who had taken their ships.
 What they did when they saw Gulliver :
 They thanked him for not hurting any of their people
 They told him how strong and brave he had been.
 They asked him to meet their King & invited him to their country.
 Gulliver accepted the invitation :
 He told them that he would be happy to do this.
 He did not realise that his promise would create many problems for him.
 The problems :
- An adviser to the King visited Gulliver without warning with some important news.
- He told him what the King's advisers were suggesting, and it did not sound very promising.
 Flimnap , the treasurer, told the King that Gulliver was costing too much money.
and it would be better if they removed him from the land.
 A top person in the navy was angry with him because, now that Blefuscu did not have
a fleet of ships, his job was no longer important. .
 Skyresh Bolgolam , said that Gulliver hadn't kept many of the promises he had agreed to
when they set him free.
 The biggest problem many of the King's advisers told him :
Gulliver was planning to work with the King of Blefuscu against Lilliput.
 Because of this , they wanted to punish Gulliver :
- He should be shot with poisonous arrows
- or set fire to his house while he is inside.
 What saved Gulliver : - The King didn't want to kill Gulliver
so it was agreed that he would be made blind.

11. Mr . Hany Ahmed
 What is the benefit of making Gulliver blind :
- He would still be strong enough to help the King if necessary but he would not be a danger.
11
 Who opposed this suggestion :
- The treasurer, Flimnap , said that if he was blind, he would still need to be given
( food & clothes ) and this would cost too much.
 The last suggestion :
- It was finally agreed that he shouldn't be given any food, as this would save the King's money.
 Gulliver's opinion of this suggestion :
 If he isn't given any food, he will soon die of hunger.
 Gulliver's thoughts to be ready :
- He could easily fight the King and his men :
If he threw a few stones at the city, he could easily destroy it.
 What made him rethink :
- He remembered the ordinary people who lived there.
- and the fact that the King had been kind to him when he arrived.
So he made a different plan.
 He sat down and wrote a letter to the King.
 He walked to the other side of the island before it got light.
 He took one of the largest ships , took off his clothes and put them inside the ship.
 He swam across to Blefuscu, pulling the ship behind him.
 When he arrived at Blefuscu, he put on the dry clothes.
 The guards called the king :
- The king with his family and advisers welcomed him.
- Gulliver was surprised that none of them seemed frightened of him.
 Gulliver to the king :
" Your Majesty, I am very pleased to meet you and will happily help you in any way I can "
- His night was uncomfortable because of
the hard ground because there was no building as large as the one that was his home in Lilliput.
- He explored the small island, which was not very different from Lilliput.
 While he was walking along the northeast coast of the island , he saw something in the sea.
- He suddenly felt excited : it was a real boat, big enough for him to go in !
 A storm had turned the boat over and it was floating off the coast.
 What he did to pull the boat :
 He hurried back to the city and asked the King to borrow some of his ships.
The king offered ( 20 ) ships, and his best sailors agreed to sail around the coast.
 The King's ships sailed close to the boat ,
 He swam into the water and carried ropes from the ships to the front of the boat.
 He tied the ropes to the boat and called for the ships to pull the boat towards the coast.
he helped by pushing the boat in the water as he swam.
- The wind helped them, and soon the boat was pushed to the beach.
- With the help of 1000 men and many ropes, they turned the boat over and he examined it .
- He could see there was little damage.
- He repaired the boat and made new oars from the biggest trees.

12. Mr . Hany Ahmed
 The next day the King of Blefuscu was uncertain about what to do with Gulliver.
Because :
 He received a letter from the King of Lilliput :
- He said that gulliver escaped punishment and should be sent back to Lilliput.
- If he wasn't tied up and returned to Lilliput at once, the war would begin again.
What was the response of the king :
The King of Blefuscu spoke for some time with his advisers.
He wrote a letter to the King of Lilliput saying it was impossible to send Gulliver back.
Why :
because  He had helped to stop the fighting between the 2 countries.
 He had hurt no one.
 He also explained that Gulliver had found a boat, he would soon be gone and
wouldn't be a problem for either country.
The ambitions of Blefuscu's king to Gulliver :
 After he had sent this letter,he promised to protect Gulliver if he would continue to help him.
Gulliver's answer :
- He no longer felt sure it was a good idea to help either of the kings.
- and he asked to be allowed to leave.
12
The king's answer :
- The King agreed to this and he even asked his men to help Gulliver to prepare his boat.
- ( 500 ) of them were employed to make new sails using hundreds of sheets,
- and after about ( a month ) , the boat was ready.
The king sees Gulliver off :
- One morning, the King came down to the beach with his family to say goodbye to him.
- He gave Gulliver  a painting of himself, (he put inside his glove to stop it from getting wet.)
 some tiny cows and sheep to supply him with food and drink at sea.
Gulliver leaves :
He left Blefuscu on ( 24 September 1701 ) at 6 in the morning.
 The wind took him north and he passed a small island. 
 The first night : was clear and he slept well before another day's sailing in the same direction.
 The next day he saw no land at all, the day after that he saw another boat not far from him :
- He tried to catch up with the boat and after many hours, it finally saw his sails.
- As he got closer, he was happy to see  the boat had an English flag.
 it was not a tiny ship but the correct size.
 he was safe.
 The boat :
- The boat belonged to a trader called John Biddel , who was " travelling from Japan to London.
- He had around ( 50 ) sailors, and they were very kind to Gulliver when he got onto their boat.
- John Biddel asked Gulliver where he had been, so he told him about his adventures.
- He thought he was completely mad, so he showed him - the tiny cows and sheep
- and the painting.

13. Mr . Hany Ahmed
- He was amazed. Gulliver offered him the sheep to give to his children.
- He was very pleased by this, and he fed the sheep on his best sea biscuits.
 In April 1702 They finally arrived back in England and Gulliver was very happy to see :
 his wife and family again.
 How tall his children had become !
- He sold his small animals for a lot of money and soon he was able to help his family to move to
a larger house in an expensive part of the town.
- His family were comfortable and happy, but he found life in the city difficult and work was
hard to find. So after just 2 and a half months back in England, he was offered a new job on a
ship called ( the Adventure ) .
- He accepted the job and prepared for another journey.

 The journey on the " Adventure " :
The start : On 20 June 1702
The Captain : John Nicholas
The destination : From England to India.
The weather : at first; the winds were kind
The first stop :They easily reached the south of Africa, where they stopped for ( fresh water )
The problem :
 There they discovered that ( the ship had a hole ) in its side which had to be repaired
 The captain fell ill . so they stayed in the south of Africa for most of the winter until the
captain had recovered and the ship was ready for the seas once more.
The next start :
 In March, they set off again, headed east, passing the island of ( Madagascar ).
 They continued to the north of the island
The Weather : the wind was ( stronger ) , so it was a difficult journey.
For ( 20 ) days they sailed against the winds,
moving slowly until finally the wind and the sea became calm.
- Gulliver was glad but the captain asked him not to be too glad.
because his experience told him that there would be a storm.
- 2 days later they were hit by a great wind from the south.
- They took down some of the sails and did all they could to control the ship,
- but the storm drove the ship east,
even their most experienced sailors didn't know where they were.
Luckily,  the ship was strong after its repairs.
 they had good supplies of food.
The problem they did not have much fresh water.
Their decision : They decided to continue in the direction the wind had taken them.
14
They reached land :
- On 16 June 1703 , a sailor could see land some distance away.
- A day later, they could all see a great island or continent in the distance .
- They saw a bay, but the captain did not think it was deep enough to take our ship,
so they put down the anchor near the coast.
- The captain ordered 12 men to go ashore in a small boat with containers to try to get some
fresh water to be ready to continue on their journey.
- Gulliver asked for permission to go with the men because he liked to visit different countries.

 What they saw on the beach,
- They couldn't see any ( people nor fresh water ).
- So the sailors decided to walk along the beach to look for a ( stream or a spring ).
- While they did this, he walked alone for about ( 1 km ) away from the beach.
This side of the land did not look very interesting:
- It had ( no trees ) and was mostly ( dry and full of rocks ).
- Because there was not very much to see, he decided to return to the beach
As he got near to the beach again,
- he realised the sailors were already in the small boat, rowing back towards the ship.
- Could they have forgotten him ?
- He was going to call out to them, when suddenly he saw something that he couldn't believe.
A huge giant was walking into the sea towards the small boat as fast as he could.
What Gulliver did :
 He didn't wait to see what happened to them, he turned and ran away from the beach.
 He climbed a small hill and when he reached the top, he sat down and looked to see what he
could find.
What he saw :
 He saw many fields, but the grass in the fields was very long, 6 m high.
 He walked down to ( a wide, rough road ) which went through fields filled with
wheat which was about ( 12 m high ).
- After ( an hour ) ! he reached the end of this enormous field.
- It ended with a wall : - it was at least 40 m tall.
- with trees behind it that were even taller.
- there were steps over the wall but it was impossible for him to use them
because every step was 2 m high.
 The second giant :
- He saw another giant, of the same size as the person on the beach.
- This person was quickly walking up the road towards the place where he stood.
- he was terrified and ran into the field of corn to hide.
- The giant easily climbed the steps onto the top of the wall, where he stopped.
he said something in a voice which was as loud as thunder,
- ( 7 ) more giants appeared each carrying enormous scythes.
- Their clothes were less well made than the first giant's,
- and Gulliver understood that the men were his workers.
- The first giant gave them an order and
The order : they began to cut the wheat in the field where HE was hiding.
 He tried to get away from them through the field,
but it was difficult to walk quickly or far, as the plants were very close together.
 Eventually, he reached a part of the field where the wind or rain had pushed the plants flat.
 He realised there was nowhere for him to go without being seen,
 He lay down with exhaustion and thought about his poor family who would soon be
without a father and husband.

16. Mr . Hany Ahmed
 What he thought :
- Why had he come on this voyage? his friends had told him not to go.
- he remembered Lilliput, a place where he was so strong and important.
And now he would be food for enormous giants.
- He realised that nothing is big or small unless you compare it with something else.
Perhaps there is another land where even these giants may feel small and unimportant.
 Suddenly he saw that one of the giants was walking towards him.
- he was worried that he had not seen him and would surely stand on him at any moment
, so he called out as loudly as he could.
- The giant stopped and looked around in surprise, before he saw him.
- he decided to carefully pick Gulliver up with his fingers to look at him closely.
- Gulliver thought quickly and decided not to move, although his fingers hurt his back
and he realised he was ( 20 m ) above the ground.
- He looked up at the sun and began to pray, worried that he would throw him onto the ground.
- Luckily he seemed pleased and also surprised that Gulliver was talking, although he clearly
didn't understand what he was saying.
" I'm very sorry, but you are hurting me " I then said and pointed to my back.
- The giant seemed to understand.
- He put Gulliver in his pocket and ran off to find his master.
 What Gulliver made with the farmer :
 He took off his hat and bowed to the farmer
 He offered him a bag of gold coins .
- He looked at the tiny coins in his hand, but didn't seem interested.
Finally, - the farmer told his workers to go back to work
- He put Gulliver inside his enormous handkerchief to show his wife.
 The wife :
- She screamed like a child who has seen a big spider.
- He showed her that Gulliver could stand up and talk and was nothing to be frightened of,
- slowly the wife looked at Gulliver with interest.
Later that day , a servant arrived with plates of food to feed the giant and his family :
16
( wife, 3 children & grandmother ) .
- The farmer put Gulliver next to him on the table,
- He was very worried he would fall because the table was at least 10 m high.
- The wife put some bread and meat on a plate for him.
- he had his own knife and fork.
- They gave him some water in a cup , which was so big that he found it difficult to lift it.
 "Thank you very much for your kindness " he said to them in English.
- When they heard him talking, they laughed so loudly that it hurt his ears.

17. Mr . Hany Ahmed
The farmer's son
- was about 10 years old and seemed very interested in Gulliver.
- He picked him up and held him by his legs so high in the air that he was terrified he would fall.
- His father quickly took him from his son and put him back on the table, saying something
angrily to the boy.
- He was worried that the son wouldn't like Gulliver after this, so through signs he tried to tell
the farmer not to punish him but to be kind .
- The farmer seemed to understand and smiled at his son.
17
The cat :
 Suddenly a cat appeared, which was 3 times the size of a cow.
- Gulliver understood that animals don't usually attack you if you show you aren't afraid of them,
- So Gulliver watched it carefully and then walked up and down in front of it.
- He was right. It didn't seem interested in him at all and soon walked away.
 A giant baby girl :
Gulliver was more worried when he saw a young woman carry a baby girl into the room:
- As soon as the baby saw him, she pointed at him and clearly wanted to play with him ,
- perhaps thinking he was a small toy.
- The mother picked him up and held him near the baby, who quickly took him in her hand.
- The baby giant filled him with fear. because the baby was about to put him in her mouth.
 What he did :
- "No, stop !" he cried out loudly, but this was not a very good idea.
- The baby was so surprised to hear him shout that she dropped him as if he were a hot rock.
- He was at ( 10 m ) from the ground and he began to fall fast towards the hard floor of their house.
