The king smiled warmly at her and handed a small chest filled with more gold coins to the girl, saying that she had proven herself worthy of such treasure through her act of kindness and of love.

Debate
Do you think the king was wise? Why or why not?
正方
I think that the
king was wise.
Reasons: at least 2
反方
I don’t think that
the king was wise.
Reasons: at least 2
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.
