The power, of hope and inspiration can work miracles in our life. It can lift us up in desperate and distressed, moments and enable us to live and move forward with confidence. When faced with grave, difficulties and unbearable pain or suffering, hope seems to be the only antidote. This unit, consists of three literary pieces. The narrative ‘The Jungle Air Crash’ is a true account of the, horrifying experience and miraculous escape of Juliane Koepcke from a jungle. The poem ‘On, Killing a Tree’ by Gieve Paul explains that even nature plans its survival in spite of adversity and, a story ‘The Last Leaf’ by O.

The aircraft flew into a thunderstorm and crashed into the, dense Amazon forest hundreds of kilometres away from civilization. She was the sole survivor, among the 92 passengers on board. How she survived remains a mystery and a miracle., However, her survival is attributed to the tips she had learned from her parents during their, research trips to the jungle.
