Whenver they find delicious food, they will eat enough. What's more, they will take it when they leave. They have suffered a lot because of this. But they never change this way. In India, people use monkey's greed to catch them. Do you know how they can catch monkeys? Here are some instructions. * Make a hole in a big pumpkin . The hole must be just right ----neither too big nor too small. * Put some jujubes in the hole. * Leave the pumpkin under a tree. Make sure there are some monkeys in the tree. * Hide yourself and watch the monkeys. As soon you leave, the monkeys can't wait to 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 can't help putting its hand into the hole to find what on earth there is. When it touches the jujubes, it will clench some of them in its hand. As a result, it isn't able to take its fist out of the hole. You can't come close until this time.

*Question*
I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts , while the other led some kind of army across America. I looked at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: let the coin decide. I flipped a coin and ah! Tails ! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver. Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was completely lost. "What could be causing everyone to act this way?" Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, "My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence." The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington? Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly: No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I should get a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmaster's office again, but this time a completely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year as the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term. Question: People in the class acted strangely because _ . Options: A: I was too proud of my homework B: I mistook what the homework was about C: the whole world suddenly became quiet D: the teacher's face turned to a stone
