A very good morning to the honourable judges, loyal

time-keeper, MR/MS emcee, teachers and friends. Im


_____________ from SK Kampung Angus. Today, I would
like to tell you an interesting story entitled The Shepherd
Boy. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Once there was a shepherd boy who had to look after a

flock of sheep. One day, he felt bored and decided to play a

trick on the villagers. He shouted, Help! Wolf! 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! I fooled

all of you. I was only playing a trick on you.

A few days later, the shepherd boy played this trick

again.

Again he cried, Help! Help! Wolf! Wolf! Again, the

villagers rushed up the hill to help him and again they found

that boy had tricked them. They were very angry with him

for being so naughty. The villagers then return to their

homes.
Then, sometime later, 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 trick. The boy ran to the nearest

villager and said, A wolf is attacking the sheep. 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.

My friends! We may not believe someone who often tells

lies, even when he tells the truth. That is the moral value

that we can learn from this story.

Thats all from me. Thank you!
