The Boy who cried Wolf 4

A few days later, a wolf DID come out of the forest.
Sam was terrified. He ran down to the village as fast as he could.
　Help
　please help!

    terrified：（形容詞）恐れた　怯えた

Nobody believed him.
　Do you think we're so stupid?
　I promise you, there's a wolf!

stupid：愚かな　馬鹿な
promise：約束する

Sam begged them to come with him.
　You have to help me.
This time, they just laughed at him.

In the end, Sam had to go back up the hill all alone.
The wolf had killed some of the sheep.
The rest had run away.

Sam stayed in the meadow until it was dark.
Finally, the villagers came to find him.

　　Finally：とうとう　結局

　（Our sheep! NO!）
　（I told you!）

"Why didn't you believe me?” he asked.
“You always told lies before,” they said.
　I’m sorry.

　　lie：嘘、偽り

“I've learned my lesson.
Never again,” said Sam.
