An old scientist recently made several tests with different animals to find out which was cleverer than
other animals.

wereinside other boxes. One small box had some food in it. The scientist wanted to watch the monkey
and to find out how long it would take the monkey to find the food. The scientist left the room. He waited
a few minutes outside the door. Then he got down on his knees (膝盖) and put his eyes to the keyhole.
