(B)

       A great French writer said that we should help everyone as much as possible because we often need help ourselves. The small even can help the great. To show this,he tells a simple story.

       An ant was drinking at a small river and fell in. She tried hard to reach the side,but it didn't work. The poor ant,almost tired out,was still doing her best when a bird saw her. Moved (被感动) with pity,the bird threw her a blade (叶片) of grass,which supported her like a boat,and she reached the bank again. While she was resting and drying herself in the grass she heard a man coming near. He was walking along barefooted (赤脚的) and carrying a gun in his hand. As he saw the bird,he wished to kill her,and he would certainly do so,but the ant bit him in the foot just before he put up his gun to fire. He stopped to see what bit him,and the bird flew away at once. It was an animal much weaker and smaller than herself that saved her life.
