Read "The Fox and the Cat by The Brothers Grimm. Then, answer the question that follows
It happened that the cat met the fox in a forest, and as she thought to herself, "He is clever and full of experience, and much esteemed in the world." She spoke to him in a friendly way.
"Good day, dear Mr. Fox, how are you? How is all with you? How are you getting on in these hard times?"
The fox, full of all kinds of arrogance, looked at the cat from head to foot, and for a long time did not know whether he would give any answer or not. At last, he said: "Oh, you wretched
beard-cleaner, you piebald fool, you hungry mouse-hunter, what can you be thinking of? Have you the cheek to ask how I am getting on? What have you learnt? How many arts do you
understand?" "I understand but one." replied the cat, modestly
"What art is that?" asked the fox
When the hounds are following me, I can spring into a tree and save myself."
"Is that all?" said the fox 1 am master of a hundred arts and have into the bargain a sackful of cunning. You make me sorry for you, come with me, I will teach you how people get away
from the hounds." Just then came a hunter with four dogs. The cat sprang nimbly up a tree, and sat down at the top of it, where the branches and foliage quite concealed her.
"Open your sack, Mr. Fox, open your sack," cried the cat to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast. "Ah, Mr. Fox," cried the cat "You with your hundred
arts are left in the lurch! Had you been able to climb like me, you would not have lost your life."
Which statement best describes how the perspective of the cat changes from the beginning to the end of the story?
O Expressing confidence about its survival skills to feeling uncertainty about escaping the dogs
O Feeling as though the fox were more accomplished to being aware that sometimes our differences make us stronger
O Seeing the fox for exactly who he was to realizing the fox was far more skilled than the cat previous believed
O Believing that it is okay to be different to understanding that every animal should act the same way
