Question

this dove had followed the ant and saw that she was in trouble. quickly, he snapped a twig from a nearby tree and dropped it into the water. the ant climbed onto its twig and floated to the shore.
not long after, the ant saw a hunter stomping through the tall grass. the ant hurried out of the hunter’s way not wanting to be squashed under the man’s heavy boot.
what is the topic of “the dove and the ant” and “the boy and the bee”?

Explanation:

The story is about a dove helping an ant (by dropping a twig for the ant to float to shore) and later the ant helping the dove (by warning it about the hunter). So the theme revolves around helping one another. Looking at the options, "helping one another" matches this theme. The other options: "needing an enemy" doesn't fit as they help each other, "having a residence" is not related, "using a snapper" is not the main theme.

Answer:

helping one another
