  1. Name:_____________________________ Date:______________________________ Subject:Comprehension The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Once in a beautiful village near lush rolling hills, there was a boy who watched over the village’s sheep. Being alone up in the hills watching sheep was a very boring task and he longed for some excitement in his life. To liven up his day, the boy thought it would be fun to scare the villagers. He raced towards the village screaming, “Wolf, wolf!” Upon hearing the screams of panic from the young shepherd, the villagers grabbed their pitch forks, rakes and brooms and raced up the hill to scare off the attacking wolf. When they reached the top, the boy toppled over and began laughing loudly. They soon realized they had been tricked by the mischievous boy. He laughed and laughed until the villagers angrily matched back down the hill. Even the sheep were not amused. The boy thought to himself, “IfI do it again, would they come?” One again, he hollered that a wolf was attacking his sheep. The villagers rushed up the hill again to find the boy bent over with laughter. This time the villagers warned him that the next time, they would no longer believe him. The boy rudely shrugged off the warning and laid down for a nap. A terrible sound woke the boy from sleep. Before he could even prepare himself, a wolf appeared right before him and began was chasing all the village’s sheep! The boy screamed, “Wolf, wolf!”, but having lied so many times, the people of the village just ignored him. With no one to help him fend off the wolf, he climbed a tree for safety and watched while the wolf ate a sheep while the others all ran away. All the boy could do was cry. He surely learnt a lesson that day.
