Explanation:
"Zlateh the Goat" is a short story written by Polish-American author Isaac Bashevis Singer.
The story takes place in a Polish village, in the late 19th century, during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. Reuven, a local furrier, is forced to sell Zlateh, the family goat, because of financial issues. He sends his son Aaron with Zlateh to town to sell Zlateh to the butcher. During the trip, Aaron and Zlateh get caught in a snowstorm. They hide in a haystack covered with snow and spend the next three days there together. The food Aaron had with him quickly runs out and he fears that he may starve to death, but luckily, Zlateh is able to produce milk by eating the hay. By drinking that milk, Aaron survives.
The idea of this story is that people often need the help of animals in order to live, as stated by statement C. All other statements refer to plot points.
