A young lion came to a small zoo in Europe. In the next cage was a tired, old lion, which did nothing except lie about and sleep. “Lion ought not to be like that!”  Young lion said to himself, so he roared at all the visitors and tried to break the bars of the cage.

At three o’clock a man brought a big piece of meat and put it in the old lion’s cage then he put a bag of nuts and two bananas in the young lion’s cage. The young lion was very surprised. “I don’t understand this,” he said to the old lion, “I behave like a real lion while you lie there doing nothing, and look what happens!”

“Well, you see,” said the old lion kindly, “this is a small zoo. They haven’t got enough money for two lions, so in their books you are here as a monkey.

Hi, Septiangga S. Kakak bantu jawab ya.

Pembahasan
Teks di atas menceritakan tentang seekor singa muda yang memarahi singa tua karena singa muda itu merasa singa tua hanya tidur saja. Kemudian singa muda itu terkejut karena ia hanya mendapatkan sekantong kacang dan dua pisang sedangkan singa besar diberikan sepotong besar daging. Pada akhirnya, dia menyadari bahwa apapun yang ia lakukan tetap ia dianggap singa muda seperti kutipan berikut:

They haven’t got enough money for two lions, so in their books you are here as a monkey. (Mereka tidak punya cukup uang untuk dua singa, jadi dalam pikiran mereka kamu di sini dianggap sebagai monyet.)
 
Sehingga, dapat disimpulkan bahwa penulis ingin mengatakan bahwa kita harus menghormati orang yang lebih tua

Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah C. We must respect the older people
