题目内容
【题目】There was once a cave (岩洞) near a town. It was called “Cave of Fear”. Anyone who tried to enter it didn't return. People in the town said that there was a monster in the cave. In order to stop the monster from getting out of the cave, people often left gifts and food at the mouth of the cave, and these things always disappeared soon.
One day, a young man came to the town. When he heard about the cave, he decided to enter the cave and found out whether there was a monster in it. As he went deep into the cave, he heard some strange sounds. So he followed the sounds. Suddenly, he felt that something was pushing his back. He was too scared to turn around to look at it. Finally, he was pushed into a huge cavern (洞穴). As he entered the cavern, he got very surprised. He found that he was right in the middle of a big party. There were a lot of people in the party. They were all those people who had never returned to the town.
Then those people told him that this was the idea of an old wise man in the town.
