How did the bee save the dove?

Directions: Read the passage given below carefully and answer the question that follows.

A bee fell into a river with a flow, unluckily. The river had strong waves of water in it. A dove was sitting on a branch of a tree. Its eyes fell upon the bee and saw that it was in a sorry state. Taking pity on the bee, it at once plucked a broad leaf and threw it near the bee. The bee climbed on the leaf, dried its wings and flew away. It was full of thankfulness for the good-natured and bighearted dove. After a few days, the bee noticed a cruel hunter trying to shoot the dove. The dove's life was in danger. Realising the serious situation, it flew directly to the hunter's hand, sat lightly on it and stung him just as he was about to shoot. The hunter missed the aim. He cried out in pain. The dove flew away. The bee had returned the help of the dove. Do unto others as you wish to be done to you.
