Ⅰ、阅读理解：5%

An old woman is on her way home and she is carrying a large of groceries（食品，杂货）. Suddenly a monkey comes and takes the groceries and runs away.

Where does this happen? This happens in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is a big city with a big problem—a problem with monkeys. About 700 monkeys live in the forests near Hong Kong and they usually come to the city to eat their meals.

The monkeys take bags of groceries from old women，take bread from babies，go into flats through open windows and take fruit from kitchen tables. In some flats the monkeys find cans of beer. They open the pop-top cans and drink the beer.

The people of Hong Kong don’t want the monkeys in their city. They say，‘Hong Kong is not a good place for moneys. The forest is a good place for monkeys.’

But the monkeys don’t want to eat in the forest because there is no bread in the forest，and there is no beer either.

So，every day the monkeys come into the city. How can people stop them? Nobody knows！

Decide whether the following statements are True(T) or False(F)：

(   ) 1. Monkeys stay in Hong Kong because people in Hong Kong like them very much.

(   ) 2. Monkeys in Hong Kong often take things from people’s hands.

(   ) 3. Monkeys in Hong Kong have got used to（习惯于）the life in the city of Hong Kong.

(   ) 4. People in Hong Kong have got some ways to get the monkeys back into the forests.

(   ) 5. The passage tells us about the monkey problem in Hong Kong.
