Pertanyaan

A tradesman had once transacted a good day’s business at a fair, disposed of all his goods, and filled his purse with gold and silver. He prepared afterward to return in order to reach home by the evening. He strapped his portmanteau, with the money in it, upon his horse’s back, and rode off. At noon he halted in a small town and as he was about to set out again, the stable-boy who brought his horse said to him: “Sir, a nail is wanting in the shoe on the left hind foot of your animal.” “Let it be wanting,” replied the tradesman; “I am in a hurry and the iron will doubtless hold the six hours I have yet to travel.” Late in the afternoon he had to dismount again, and feed his horse, and at this place also the boy came and told him that a nail was wanting in one of the shoes, and asked him whether he should take the horse to a farrier. “No, no, let it be!” replied the master; “it will last out the couple of hours that I have now to travel; I am in haste.” So saying he rode off; but his horse soon began to limp, and from limping it came to stumbling, and presently the beast fell down and broke its leg. Thereupon the tradesman had to leave his unfortunate horse lying on the road, to unbuckle the portmanteau, and to walk home with it upon his shoulder, where he arrived at last late at night. “And all this misfortune,” said he to himself, “is owing to the want of a nail. More haste, the less speed!” From his experience, what would the man probably do?

From his experience, what would the man probably do?  

  1. He would take a wagon instead of a horse

  2. He would take two horses for his next travel

  3. He would not take small things lightly anymore

  4. He would make sure to send his horse to a farrier

  5. He would not bring heavy stuff to prevent bad luck

Pembahasan

Pedagang mengabaikan peringatan orang lain sebanyak dua kali karena ia merasa terburu-buru ingin cepat sampai. Akhirnya ia membiarkan kudanya kehilangan satu tapal kuda karena ia berpikir hal itu hanyalah hal kecil. Lama-lama kuda tersebut tidak tahan dan tidak dapat berjalan hingga menimbulkan kesulitan besar kepada pedagang. Pesan moral yang hendak disampaikan adalah bahwa mengabaikan hal kecil bisa saja menimbulkan masalah dan membawa petaka pada kita. Oleh karena itu, kita tidak boleh menyepelekan suatu hal karena sesuatu yang mungkin terlihat kecil/ tidak penting sekali pun bisa saja memiliki peran yang sangat berarti bagi kita. Jawaban yang tepat adalah C.
