QUESTION
The Dog and the Bone A friendly butcher
gave a dog a bone. The dog was running home with
it as fast as he could go. Soon he came to the
river. He started walking across the bridge. But
he stopped halfway to look down. He saw his
reflection in the water. It was like looking into
a mirror. But the greedy dog thought what he saw
was another dog. And this other dog was carrying
a bigger bone. If he had stopped to think
he would have known better. But he did not think.
He dropped his bone into the water. Then he
jumped at the dog he saw in the river.

• What will happen?
• He will catch the other dog and drag him to
  shore.
• He will steal the other dogs bone and swim to
  shore.
• He will see he made a mistake and swim to
  shore.
• He will break the mirror.

106
ANSWER
C. He will see he made a mistake and swim to
shore. Here is the whole story The Dog and the
Bone A friendly butcher gave a dog a
bone. The dog was running home with it as fast as
he could go. Soon he came to the river. He
started walking across the bridge. But he stopped
halfway to look down. He saw his reflection in
the water. It was like looking into a mirror. But
the greedy dog thought what he saw was another
dog. And this other dog was carrying a bigger
bone. If he had stopped to think he would
have known better. But he did not think. He
dropped his bone into the water. Then he jumped
at the dog he saw in the river. But there was no
other dog. He began to sink. He had to swim very
hard to reach the shore. He finally made it out
of the river. He was very sad about the good bone
he had lost. He saw what a silly dog he had been.
It is very foolish to be greedy.
