Once upon a time, there lived a shepherd boy who tended his master's sheep in a place far away from the village. The pasture was surrounded by a dense and dark forest. He did not have much to entertain himself with, except for playing with his dog. As a result, he got bored very quickly. One day, he thought of something fun. He imagined if he ever had to encounter a wolf. He remembered that he was taught to call for help from the villagers to drive the wolf away from the village. Therefore his plan was to run to the village and shout for help even though he had not seen anything. He kept shouting, "Wolf! There is a wolf!" while acting very scared. The villagers quickly gathered and ran towards the pasture only to find the shepherd boy laughing, with no wolf in sight. Because his first try was successful, he did it again, for the second time, in a few days. Again, the villagers got tricked and laughed at by the shepherd boy. A couple of days later, the boy saw a wolf appearing from the forest which attacked one of the sheep. He ran straight to the village while shouting for help, "Wolf! Wolf!" with all his might. However, the villagers did not want to help him, thinking it was just another prank. They got back to work and ignored the boy. With no one to help, the shepherd boy lost a few sheep as the wolf disappeared back into the forest. What can we infer from the story? A. We should not stop working harder. B. We should take responsibility for our own actions. C. Nobody believes a liar even when he tells the truth. D. Difficult work can be done sooner by working together. E. Everyone should live diligently and have respect for each other.
