What are the sample essays retelling the folktale "Cây khế" in a character's words for 6th-grade students in Vietnam?

I am the older brother in the story about the starfruit tree. If I could go back in time, I wish I had not been so greedy to face such a bitter outcome.

From a young age, our parents passed away early, leaving my younger brother and me with a large inheritance. However, I was selfish, seizing all the houses and fields, leaving my younger brother with only a small garden and a solitary starfruit tree. My brother never complained but tended to the starfruit tree every day, living a simple life.

One day, a strange bird flew down and ate the starfruit. My brother sadly said:

- Bird, this starfruit tree is all I have; if you eat it all, how will I survive?

Unexpectedly, the bird replied:

- Eat one fruit, return a lump of gold. Bring a bag three handspans wide tomorrow to carry!

My brother listened, prepared a bag three handspans in width, and miraculously, the bird carried him to an island full of gold and silver. He took just enough and returned to build a house and help the poor.

When I found out about it, my greed was awakened. I begged my brother to exchange the house for the starfruit tree. Then, like my brother, I met the strange bird too. But I was greedy, bringing a huge bag. As the bird flew over the sea, the bag was too heavy, and I fell into the sea, losing everything.

I paid a heavy price for my greed. If I could do it again, I would not be selfish or greedy but live harmoniously like my brother. But it is too late now...

Sample 2: Role-playing as the younger brother to retell the folktale "Cây khế"

I am the younger brother in the story "The Starfruit Tree". Even now, I still clearly remember the miraculous things I experienced.

Our parents passed away early, and I was left with my only sibling. But my brother was greedy, taking all the property, leaving me with just a small hut and a starfruit tree. I did not complain but took care of the starfruit tree every day, treating it as my only friend.

One day, a very large strange bird flew in, eating the ripe starfruit. I sadly said:

- Bird, this starfruit tree is all I have; if you eat it all, how will I survive?

The bird suddenly spoke:

- Eat one fruit, return a lump of gold. Bring a bag three handspans wide tomorrow to carry!

I was surprised but did as told. The next day, the bird carried me across the great sea to an island full of gold and silver. I took only a small enough amount and returned. Thanks to that gold, I rebuilt the house and helped the poor. I lived peacefully, never boasting or being greedy.

When my brother learned of this, he demanded to exchange all his assets for the starfruit tree. I cared for my brother and agreed. But he was too greedy, bringing a huge bag. As the bird flew over the sea, the bag was too heavy, and he fell into the water, losing his life.

I was heartbroken. If only my brother weren't greedy, perhaps we could have lived happily together. This story taught me that greed can make a person lose everything.
