EXAMPLE

A Wolf and A Dog

outline of his bones could be seen clearly beneath his thinning coat of hair. With hardly
enough energy to walk, the wolf had little hope of finding food. As he lay beneath a large
tree, a dog out for a walk noticed him. Seeing how thin and hungry-looking the wolf was,
the dog felt sorry for him and said, "You are in terrible shape! You look as if you haven't
eaten for many days."
"You're right," said the wolf. "I haven't eaten because you and your friends are doing such
a good job of guarding the sheep. Now I am so weak that I have little hope of finding
food. I think I will surely die."
Then why not join us? Asked the dog. "I work regularly and I eat regularly. You could do
the same. I will arrange it. You can help me and the other dogs guard the sheep. In that
way, we won't have to worry about your stealing the sheep any more and you won't have
to worry about going hungry any more. It's a good deal for both of us."
The wolf thought it over for a few minutes and then decided that the dog was right. So
they went off together toward the ranch house where the dog lived. But, as they were
walking, the wolf noticed that the hair on a certain part of the dog's neck was very thin.
He was curious about this, for the dog had such a beautiful coat every where else.
Finally, he asked the dog about it.
"Oh, don't worry about that," said the dog. "It's the place where the collar rubs on my
neck when my master chains me up at night."
"Chained up!" cried the wolf, "Do you mean that you are chained up at night? If I come to
live with you, will I be chained up at night too?"
That's right," answered the dog. "But, You'll get used to it soon enough. I hardly think
about it anymore."
"But, if I am chained up, then I won't be able to walk when I want to take a walk or to run
where I want to run," the wolf said. "If I come to live with you, I won't be free anymore."
