The Trojan Horse Reading Response

Author's Note: This is a reading response on the old story of, The Trojan Horse.

Not only were the Greeks and Trojans in war, but after that Greek Army departed an odd gift, a wooden horse, was left behind for the Trojans.  This was the conflict of the story, the Trojans either thought that they should burn the wooden horse or praise it.  After the priest stabbed the wooden horse the conflict was resolved by Sinon sharing his knowledge with the Trojans.  The whole thing was so sneaky, because the whole time the Greek band of warriors were hiding in the belly of the wooden horse.  This devious scheme could happen nowadays, because there are wars going on today.  None of that could happen at a school or small work place, because today a tactic known as, compromise, is used in schools and work places.  Lastly I haven't seen any thing relatively close to this story in novels, films, or real life of this century.
