Great job with your explanations! Just to add a few more points:

1. The structure of the story "The Black Horse" can be classified as a problem and solution structure because it presents a problem (thirsty rider with no water) and then provides a solution (riding the horse to the clouds to get water).

2. The problem faced by the rider of the black horse is that they are thirsty and there is no water available. This is stated in the story and drives the action of the plot.

3. In the story of the two mice, the first mouse thinks that her cousin is lazy. This is because the first mouse is hardworking and stores beans for the winter, while the second mouse only dances and asks for supplies without contributing any effort.

4. Stories from a culture's oral tradition often still use structures that will be familiar to modern readers. This allows the stories to resonate with people today and make connections across time and cultural boundaries.

Keep up the great work! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Thank you for providing the specific lesson and grade level. It seems like you are referring to a lesson on the structure of cultural literature. In this lesson, the focus is on understanding the different structures and elements found in various cultural stories.

In the first question, you are asked to identify the type of structure in the story "The Black Horse." By analyzing the story, you can determine that it follows a problem and solution structure. The problem in the story is that the rider of the black horse is thirsty and in need of water. The solution is that the person rides the horse to the clouds to get water back down. This structure presents a clear problem and then provides a solution to resolve it.

Moving on to the second question, the problem faced by the rider of the black horse is explicitly stated in the story. The rider is thirsty, and there is no water available. This problem sets the stage for the rider's journey to find a solution.

In the third question, you are asked about the first mouse's opinion of her cousin in a story. According to the story, the first mouse thinks that her cousin is lazy. This perception is based on the fact that the first mouse works hard and stores beans, while her cousin only dances and asks for supplies without putting in any effort.

Lastly, the fourth question focuses on stories from a culture's oral tradition. The correct answer is that these stories often use structures that are familiar to modern readers. The examples you provided from the black horse and the little mice stories highlight this point. These stories use simple and easily understandable structures and morals that can still resonate with modern audiences.
