The wolf sighed. He had (1) scoured for shelter from the impending storm but there was nowhere to hide. Just then, he spotted a faint light coming from a small hut and dashed towards it, knocking (2) desperately on the door. Little did he know that the hut belonged to a little pig.
The pig peered cautiously through the window, his heart pounding. “Please let me in,” (3) implored the wolf. As the pig reached for the door, he remembered his mother’s stern warning: “Never trust a wolf.” Although he felt (4) apprehensive, he saw the wolf shivering in the rain. His fear gave way to compassion, and he let the wolf in.
