Once a King saw an old man planting an apple tree. He asked the old man, “Why are you planting a fruit
tree when you cannot hope to see it bear fruits?” The old man replied that perhaps God willing. he might
live long enough to taste the fruit of the tree and even if he himself died, his children and grand-children
could surely eat the fruit. The King told him, “In any case, if you happen to live long enough to see the
tree bear fruits, please do not forget to send me some.” The old man promised and fortunately he lived
long enough to see the tree bear fruits. He then plucked some of the best ripened apples from the tree
and carried them in a basket to the King as he had promised. The King was extremely happy to accept
the gift. He also ordered that the basket of the old man be filled with gold and given back to him. Which of the following statements is true?
(A) The moral of the story is ‘Look at the brighter side of life.’
(B) The moral of the story is ‘Look at the darkest side of life.’
(C) The moral of the story is ‘Take life as it comes.’
