No More Mystery in the Neighborhood
Last week, in a quiet neighborhood, something strange happened. What is it? Let me tell you.
We now know what was happening in the neighborhood. Three monkeys ran away from thecity zoo ten days ago. The monkeys were hungry but they were afraid to come out in the daytime.
So they visited the homes in the neighborhood for food at night. They got into the houses through
the windows. One night they heard some noises and tried to run away. But the police caught the
three monkeys and took them back to the zoo.
Now the mystery is solved. People in the neighborhood don't feel afraid anymore. All in all, we
should try our best to find out the truth. Seeing is believing.
