The answer is C: Parable.

 This story of <em>The Boy Who Cried Wolf,</em> <em>Wolf</em> contains a message with a moral lesson in the line of "a liar is not believed even when he tells the truth". This  is a parable, a <em>figure of speech</em>, which uses a short story that expresses an overall point, a moral or spiritual lesson. The word parable comes from the Greek, meaning "comparison."<em> It is an easy way to explain complicate lessons.</em>

Drupady [299]
Well, you can turn these into percents to get a different view if the fraction thing is messing you up. Do this by dividing the top by the bottom and multiplying bu 100. 

1/8 = 0.125           0.125 x 100 = 12.5%
3/8 = 0.375           0.375 x 100 = 37.5%
1/4 = 0.25             0.25 x 100 = 25%

1/8 is the smallest and 3/8 is the largest

Another way to do this would be to multiply 1/4 so all three numbers have equal denominatior. 
1/4 x 2/2 = 2/8 

comparing, 2/8 3/8 and 1/8, you can see that 1/8 is the least and 3/8 is the most
