Answer:
THE BOY WOH CRIED WOLF
Explanation:
Once upon a time, there lived a boy in a village near a hill. He belonged to a family of shepherds. He used to take his flock of sheep and goats to a hill that was near the village. There was a thick forest on the hill-side. It was full of wild animals.
Along the feet of the hill were several fields where the farmers worked all the day long. The shepherd boy did not feel afraid of the wild animals as the farmers were always just at a stone's throw from him.
One day the boy was sitting on a rock minding his flock. Suddenly, he thought of some mischief. He thought for a while and then cried, '' Wolf ! Wolf !! save me.'' The farmers heard his shouts and ran with sticks in their hands to help him. Reaching there they asked the boy where the wolf was. He said, ''It has run away by hearing the noise.'' But he was laughing in his sleeves.
One of the farmer said, ''Why are you laughing like that ? " The boy could not help laughing aloud. He said,
" Oh! it was only a joke. There was no wolf indeed. " So, the farmers went away grumbling over his conduct. They decided never to believe him in future.
Several days passed without any happening. But one day it so happened that a wolf actually came and attacked the sheep. The boy did not know what to do. He cried aloud, "Wolf! Wolf!! save me, I am not joking this time. There is really a wolf here."
But nobody listened to his shouts. The boy at last attacked and killed by the wolf with his staff.
The news spread in the village and people came to see the boy lying dead. When the farmers told them the whole story, everybody said, " He has been rightly punished for telling lies."
