Question

Spend a pound to win a penny
Some people were steaming peas under a tree in order to make a meal for their horses. Up in the branches sat a monkey,1what they were doing.
"Aha" thought the monkey. “I spot my2!” So when the men had finished steaming the peas and3 for a moment to look after the horses,4,the monkey let himself down from the tree. He snatched (抓) the peas and filled his5and both hands as full as they could6. Then he climbed up the tree and sat there, eating happily.
Suddenly one pea fell.
"Oh dear! Oh my pea!" cried the monkey. The other peas7to drop out of his mouth. He8his hands in despair(绝望地), and the peas fell out of his hands too, but he took no9. All he thought of was that one pea was gone,10 he climbed down the trunk to hunt for his lost pea on the ground. At this time, the men came back. When they saw a monkey11with their pots, they all12their arms and shouted, "Shoo! Shoo!" Then they picked up stones and began to13 the monkey with them. The monkey was so14that he gave one jump to the nearest15 , and swung himself up to the top of the tree.
"After all," said he to himself, “it was16one pea.” But he ought to have thought of that17 ,for now all the other peas had gone too.
That day the monkey had to content himself with the18 of boiled peas for dinner, and I hope the 19taught him not to be so20 in future.
