I fell in the road by Rusnara

Read the story with your friend.

One day I was playing with my brother. I was chasing him. I chased him into the road. I ran into the road. Then I fell down and I hurt my elbow and my knee. They were bleeding. I went home and I put a plaster on my elbow and on my knee. Then my mum hit my brother. She said, `Don't chase girls.' I said, `Don't hit him. He didn't chase me. I chased him.'

9. 
   Who played with Rusnara?

10. Who chased her brother into the road?
