Question

【题目】

Monkeys are clever, but they are very greedy(贪婪的) as well. They have suffered(吃亏)a lot because of this. But they never change this way.

In India, people use monkeys’ greed to catch them. Do you know how they can catch monkeys? Here are some instructions.

*Make a hole(洞)in a big pumpkin. The hole must be just right-not too big or too small.

*Put some jujubes(枣)in the hole.

*Leave the pumpkin under the tree. Make sure there are some monkeys in the tree.

*Hide yourself and watch the monkeys.

When you leave, the monkeys come down to the pumpkin. When they find a hole in the pumpkin, they don’t know what’s in it and one of them puts its hand into the hole to find out what is inside. When it touches the jujubes, it will hold some of them in its hand. So it isn’t able to take its fist(拳)out of the hole. You can’t come close at this time. Will the monkey drop off the pumpkin? Don’t worry. It seems it likes the pumpkin better than its life. It will run with the pumpkin, holding its fist more tightly. Finally, people can catch it easily.
