A

Shang Yang was an official in the state of Qin during the Warring States period. He worked out many reforms(变革) for the state, like focusing on farming and giving rewards to soldiers who were successful at war. However, these reforms were not easily carried out at first because most people didn’t trust him.

To work out this problem, Shang Yang came up with an idea. He put a thin wooden pole(木桩) at the south gate of the Qin capital. Many people came to see him. Then, in front of the crowd, he said loudly, “The one who takes this pole to the north gate will get 10 gold pieces.”

It was a simple job and the reward was huge. However, some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought that Shang Yang was just joking.

Hearing no answers, Shang Yang stepped forward and said, “The reward now goes to 50 gold pieces.” This offer was unbelievable. Finally, a man from the crowd came forward. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word, Shang Yang gave the man 50 gold pieces.

After that, the people of Qin were all talking about what Shang Yang did at the south gate. They believed that Shang Yang was a man of his word. So when Shang Yang began carrying out his reforms, the people followed him. Under these great reforms, Qin grew strong and unified all the states, becoming the first empire of China.

A. Because they were bad.

B. Because most people didn’t believe in him.
