The correct answer is A. The Goatherd took good care of the Wild Goats during the storm, enven to almost neglect the others,but his motive was not good, desiring only increase his flock. And, not getting the result he wanted, he scolded them, showing his character and failing to be a good leader, whose job is to care, provide and protect without selfish expectations.
The statement that accurately explains the theme in the Fable's passage is: "Good leaders treat everyone the same."
An explanation is that if the Goatherd would have treated both his goats and the Wild Goats the same way, the latter would have trusted him and stayed with him. The fact that they were "new" does not mean it is right to leave his own flock behind.
