One day, when there was a good deal of kicking, my mother said to me , "I wish you to pay attention to what I am going to say to you. The colts who live here are very good colts, but they have not learned manners. You have been well bred and well born; I hope you will grow up gentle and good, and never learn bad ways."

　　I have never forgotten my mother's advice; I knew she was a wise old horse, and our master thought a great deal of her. Her name was Duchess, but he often called her Pet.

　　Our master was a good, kind man. He gave us good food and kind words; he spoke as kindly to us as he did to his little children; we were all fond of him.There was a plowboy, Dick. He would have what he called fun with the colts, throwing stones and sticks at us to make us gallop.

　　One day he was playing this game, and did not know that the master was in the next field; he was there, watching what was going on,"Bad boy!" he said, " This is not the first time, nor the second, but it shall be

　　the last. There—take your money and go home; I shall not want you on my farm again." So we never saw Dick any more. Old Daniel, the man who looked after the horses, was just as gentle as our master, so we were well off.

　　66.What is Paragraph I mainly about?

　　A. The summary of the plot

　　B. The description of the setting

　　C. The explanation of the conflict
