Read part 1 carefully and fill in the table.
Once upon a time there was a king who often thought, “Nothing good can come to a nation whose people only complain and expect others to solve their problems.” One day, he had an idea.
Early one morning, the king disguised himself and went to a local village. He placed a large stone in the middle of the main street and hid gold coins under the stone. Then he hid behind a huge maple tree and watched.

Read part 2 carefully and fill in the table.
The first person down the street was a milkman with his cart. He crashed into the stone, spilling the milk everywhere. “What fool put this stone here ” he shouted. He picked himself up and angrily went away.
After a while, a group of women came along, each balancing a pot of water on her head. One woman tripped over the stone and her water pot went crashing to the ground. She picked herself up and limped away in tears. Neither she nor her friends thought about moving the stone out of the road.
The king watched all day as many people complained about the stone, but he found nobody making an attempt to move it. The king was in despair. “Is there no one in this village who feels any responsibility to keep their neighbours from harm ”
Just then, the king saw a young girl coming along. She was the daughter of a local farmer. She had been working all day and was very tired. But when she saw the stone, she said to herself, “This stone is a danger to anyone who comes down the street after dark. I’ll move it out of the way.”
The girl pushed the stone with all her might. After a great deal of effort, she finally succeeded in moving it to the side of the street. Imagine her surprise when she saw the gold coins where the stone had been!

Just then, the king stepped out from behind the tree. “Oh sir,” the girl said, “does this gold belong to you If not, we surely must find the owner, for he will certainly miss it.”
The king said, “My dear, the gold is mine. I put it in the road and moved the stone over it. Now the gold is yours, because you are the only person who has learnt the lesson I wanted to teach my people.”
1. The girl moved the stone, but got nothing.
2. The king found the person who had learnt the lesson he wanted to teach his
people.

Read the fable again and answer the following questions.
What was the king’s idea for teaching an important lesson to his people
What was the response from most of the people
What did the young girl think and do when she saw the coins
He put a huge stone in the middle of a road, and watched to see if anyone would move it.
Most of the people just got upset that the stone was in their way.
She thought that the money belonged to someone else and that it should be returned.
What do you think this fable is trying to tell us Do you think the king was wise Why or why not
The moral of the story is that we should all take responsibility for our community.
I don’t think that the king was very wise, however, because no one learnt anything from his experiment. The milkman, the woman with her water pot, and the other villagers continued on their travels without having changed their attitudes at all. The king did find one responsible young girl, but she was already a responsible person before she encountered the stone in the road.
Suggested Answer
Work in pairs. Discuss the questions.
Can you think of times in your own life when you felt and acted like the girl or like the other people in the story Give examples.
There have been times when I have acted responsibly like the girl in the story. For example, I recently saw some children playing on a dangerous balcony, and so I warned them it was dangerous and had them go somewhere else to play. However, often I’m more like the milkman in the story because I’m very busy with my own work and worries.

Sample: The Stone in the Road is an old fable about a king who wanted to teach his people a lesson by hiding gold under the stone in the street.
Sample: The author used the story to impress on readers the need to take personal responsibility for problems in the community. The story is quite successful in achieving its purpose, and I like it because it has a clear moral.
Sample: However, while the moral of the story is clear, the actions of the king seemed pointless to me, because none of the characters in the story learnt anything. For this reason, I think there are better stories that can be used to impress on people the need for personal responsibility.
