The Camel and the Pig

A camel and a pig were arguing about their height.
The camel said, "Nothing is better than being tall! Look how tall I am!"
The pig responded, "Nothing is better than being small! Look how small I am!"
The camel said that if he failed to prove the truth of what he said, he would give up his hump.
The pig said that if he failed to prove the truth of what he said, he would give up his snout.
Both of them agreed with each other's conditions and proceeded to prove their point.
They came to a garden enclosed by a low wall without any opening, and the camel stood on the side of the wall, and reached the plants inside the garden using his long neck and had a good meal. Then, he turned to the pig who had been standing at the bottom of the wall without even being able to look at the good things in the garden.
He said, "Now, would you like to be tall or small?"
Next, they came to a garden enclosed by a high wall, with a small gate at one end, and the pig entered by the gate. He had his fill of the vegetables from the garden, and came out. He laughed at the poor camel who had to stay outside because he was too tall to enter the garden by the gate.
He said, "Now, would you like to be tall or small?"
The two thought the matter over and came to the conclusion that the camel should keep his hump and the pig his snout, and both agreed that, "It's better to be happy with what one has!"

If you’re looking for a place to visit, i recommend yosemite national park. visiting yosemite has been a high point of my life. can you imagine waking up, inhaling the pine-scented air, and watching the pink-tinted mountains reflect the sunrise? later, as you hike, you’ll encounter meadows strewn with rainbows of wildflowers and lakes in astonishing shades of blue. the tone of the passage is effective because it defines yosemite for the reader. the author entertain the reader. instructs the reader on how to enjoy yosemite. supports the author’s attempt to persuade.
