Narrative Text dan kunci jawaban (Batara Guru Sahala)

Once, a fisherman named
Batara Guru Sahala lived in the Batak Land. One day, he caught a fish. He was
surprised to find that the fish could talk. It begged Sahala to set it free. He
did accordingly.

As
soon as the fish was free, it changed into a woman. She was so beautiful that
Sahala fell in love at once. He asked her to marry him. The woman agreed to
marry Sahala. However, she told him that he must never let out the secret that
she was once a fish. Sahala promised that he would not tell anyone about it.

They
were happily married and had two daughters. Every morning Sahala went out
fishing. One day, his daughters brought him his lunch. However, instead of
bringing the food to their father, the two girls ate it. When Sahala knew what
they had done with the meal, he got very angry. He shouted at them saying,
"You behaved exactly like the daughters of the fish!”

They
did not know what their father meant. They went home and asked their mother
about it. Their mother was very upset. Although Sahala apologized to her, she
would not forgive him for breaking his promise.

Then
the earth began to shake, and the volcano started to erupt. The earth cracked
and formed a big hole. It is said that the hole became the Toba Lake.
