What do you think this fable is trying to tell us
A person who is responsible and considerate（考虑周到的） will deserve（值得） help or success, otherwise（否则）, one will miss the chance to get help or succeed.
I don't think that the king was very wise, however, because no one learnt anything from his experiment. The milkman, the woman with the water, and the other villagers continued on their travels without having changed their attitudes at all. The king did find one responsible little girl, but she was already a responsible person before she encountered the stone in the road.

Paragraph 3:Your opinion about the story
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 upon people the need for personal responsibility.
