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>
