After the tree was cut down, the animals left．The prince was sad．He wanted to know where the animals {#blank#}5{#/blank#}．He asked many people but {#blank#}6{#/blank#}knew．He thought these people  were  very {#blank#}7{#/blank#}．And he was angry with them．He decided to kill them．Luckily ,a {#blank#}8{#/blank#}boy stopped him and explained that it was because of the tree that those animals went away．The boy advised the prince to plant more trees so that more animals would come．
