The Monkey Buffet Festival is on the last Sunday of November. It is a great day for monkeys in Thailand(泰国). The festival has a history of twenty-five years. People there think monkeys can bring good luck to them. So, to thank monkeys, they have this special festival.

    On that day every year, people put lots of fruit, vegetables, cakes and even drinks on the tables outside. They are all for monkeys. Many people come to see the monkeys on that day.

    During the festival, there are a lot of interesting activities about monkeys. Young people always dress like monkeys. And they sing and dance and play some music on the street.

    Monkeys always live in groups. Most of them live in the trees. They are good at running and jumping. They eat fruit, vegetables, flowers and birds' eggs. Monkeys are clever. Do you think so?

      One day, a mother crocodile (鳄鱼) and a baby crocodile swam slowly in a riven Suddenly, the mother crocodile saw a monkey, "Oh, a monkey! How nice if I have it for dinner!"

    "My son, can you go and get the monkey for me? I want to eat his heart," the mother crocodile said.

    "All right," the baby crocodile answered.

    The baby crocodile swam near the river bank (河岸). He shouted at the monkey, "Hey, monkey! Would you like some bananas? There are many banana trees over there on the other bank of the river."

    "I like them very much. But I can't swim. How can I get there?" the monkey asked.

    "Oh, I can take you there," the baby crocodile said.

    "Really? Thank you very much!" the monkey jumped onto the baby crocodile's back. In the middle of the river, the baby crocodile went into the water. When he came up again, the monkey was wet all over. "Don't do that again, or you'll kill me!" the monkey shouted.

    "I know, but I must do that! My mother wants to eat your heart."

    "My heart? Why didn't you tell me earlier7 I left it in a tree. We should go back for it!" So they went back.

    As soon as they got to the bank, the monkey picked up a big stone (石头) and climbed up onto the street quickly. He shouted at the baby crocodile, "Don't you want my heart? Well, catch!" The monkey threw(扔) the big stone at the crocodile.

Dear Jack,

    My town is very small. Only a few hundred people live here. It has a river with an old bridge across it. There is a church and a school along the river. They are next to each other. Across from our school is a park. It was built last year. I always go there to have fun with my friends. On Main Street there is a hotel, a supermarket, a gas station, a bakery, a butcher's shop and a grocery store.

    We don't have a hospital or a police station, but we do have a doctor and a police officer. They live on opposite sides of the river.

    We don't have a movie theater. If we want to go to a movie, we have to go to the next town. It is a 30-minute bus ride away. The bus stop is outside my house I usually go to the movies with my mom every Saturday.

    Please write soon and tell me something about your place.

    Best wishes

Bruce
