A lark had made her nest in the early spring on the young green wheat. The brood had almost grown to their full strength and gained the use of their wings and the full plumage of their feathers, when the owner of the field, looking over his ripe crop, said, “The time has come when I must ask all my neighbors to help me with my harvest.” One of the young Larks heard this and relayed it to his mother inquiring of her to what place they should move for safety. “There is no occasion to move yet, my son,” replied; “the man who only sends for his friends to help him with his harvest is not really in earnest.” The owner of the field came again a few days later and saw the wheat shedding the grain from becoming overripe. He said, “I will come myself tomorrow with my laborers, and with as many reapers as I can hire, and will get in the harvest.” The Lark, on hearing these words, said to her brood, “It is time now to be off, my little ones, for the man is in earnest this; he no longer trusts his friends, but will reap the field himself.” 1. What is the author’s theme or message for this text _______________. A.One should get help from his friends first. B. Self-help is the most reliable and best help available. C. One should never ask for any help from anyone. D. Help is appropriate in all situations.
