         This is a story about a monkey. An old man had a monkey. The old man liked the monkey very much.
The monkey was very clever. When birds came to the garden, he drove them away. He also helped the old man
in many other ways.
          One hot afternoon in the summer, the old man was sleeping in his chair in the garden. A fly (苍蝇) came
and sat on the old man's nose. The monkey drove it away. Soon the fly came back and sat on the old man's nose
again. Again the monkey drove it away. Again and again, the monkey became very angry. He jumped up and ran
to pick a large stone. When the fly was on the old man's nose again, the monkey hit it hard with that stone. The
fly fell off, but the old man's nose was broken.
