Answer 1

A.

The wolf gets caught in the hunters' trap

Step-by-step explanation:

The folk tale of Nho Lobu the wolf and the two men is one that raises questions on morals, and the reward for doing good to others.

The wolf met two men whom he wanted to eat. But as they got talking about preparing cachupa he became more interested in eating it with them.

He helped them get onions and mandioca. The men then tricked him into going to look for rabbits for the cachupa. This was when the wolf was caught in a trap set by the men.

The story ended with them laughing and saying the cachupa will be tastier with the meat of the wolf.

Later, they suggested adding mandioca to the cachupa, in which Nho Lobo agreed to get in a bid to get larger share of cachupa, he got it as well, after some search. Finally, the suggested getting rabbits meat for the cachupa, and this time, when Nho Lobo agreed to get rabbit for them, he got caught in a trap set out, while searching.
