THE SHEPHERD BOY AND THE WOLF

http://blogs.sch.gr/makarono/files/2008/05/shepherd.jpg

Once, there was a shepherd boy who had to look after his http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/s...tiere/k030.gif sheep. One day, he felt bored http://www.alshref.com/vb/images/smilies/209.gif and decidedhttp://www.alshref.com/vb/images/smi...20%2873%29.gif to play a trick on the villagers. He shouted,

«Help! Wolf! http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/teufel/a010.gif Wolf!» The villagers heard his cries and rushed out of the village to help the shepherd boy. When they reached him, they asked, «Where is the wolf?» The shepherd boy laughed loudly, «Ha, Ha, Ha!http://yoursmiles.org/msmile/fun/m0139.gif I fooled all of you. I was only playing a trick on you.»

The shepherd boy played this trick several times. Then, some time later, http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/teufel/a025.gif a wolf went into the field. The wolf attacked one sheep, and then another and another. The shepherd boy ran towards the village shouting, «Help! Help! Wolf! Help! Somebody!»

The villagers heard his cries but they laughed because they thought it was another trickhttp://www.alshref.com/vb/images/smilies/sm99.gif. The boy ran to the nearest villager and said, «A wolf is attacking the sheephttp://www.alshref.com/vb/images/smilies/65482.gif. I lied before, but this time it is true!»

Finally, the villagers went to look. It was true. They could see the wolf running away and many dead sheep lying on the grass.

even when they speak the truth.
