Question

This is a story about a monkey. An old man had a monkey. The monkey was very clever. The old man liked him very much. When birds came to the garden, he drove(驱赶) them away. He also helped the old man in many other ways. On a hot afternoon, the old man was asleep 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 again 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, ran to pick a large stone(石头). When he came back, 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.
