The Monkey and the Crocodile

One day, there was a monkey. He wanted to cross a river. There he saw a crocodile so he asked the crocodile to take him across the other side of the river. The crocodile agreed and told the monkey to jump on its back. Then the crocodile swam down the river with the monkey on his top.
 
Unluckily, the crocodile was very hungry, he stopped in the middle of the river and said to the monkey, “My father is very sick. He has to eat the heart of the monkey. So he will be health again.”

At the time, the monkey was in dangerous situation and he had to think hard. Then he had a good idea. He told the crocodile to swim back to the river bank. “What’s for?” asked the crocodile. “Because I don’t bring my heart,” said the monkey. “I left it under a tree, near some coconuts in the river bank.”
 
The crocodile agreed and turned around. He swam back to the bank of the river. As soon as they reached the river bank, the monkey jumped off the crocodile’s back. Then he climbed up to the top of a tree.
 
“Where is your heart?” asked the crocodile. “You are foolish,” said the monkey to the crocodile. “Now I am free and I have my heart.”

Halo Okedia, kakak bantu jawab ya :)

Jawaban soal ini adalah (B). Stupid.

Soal menanyakan tentang karakter dari buaya pada cerita di atas.

Bacaan di atas diawali dengan cerita tentang monyet yang meminta bantuan buaya untuk menyeberangi sungai. (Paragraf 1)

Buaya yang sangat lapar, berniat untuk memakan hati monyet saat berada di tengah sungai. (Paragraf 2)

Monyet yang merasa dalam situasi berbahaya kemudian menipu buaya dengan memintanya kembali ke daratan untuk mengambil hatinya yang ditinggalkan di bawah pohon. (Paragraf 3)

Buaya yang tertipu dengan trik monyet tersebut, membawa monyet kembali ke daratan (Paragraf 4).

Di paragraf terakhir monyet mengatakan "“You are foolish,” said the monkey to the crocodile. “Now I am free and I have my heart.” (“Kamu bodoh,” kata monyet kepada buaya. “Sekarang saya bebas dan saya memiliki hati saya.”)

Dari cerita tersebut, bisa disimpulkan bahwa karakter buaya yang gampang ditipu oleh monyet adalah stupid (bodoh).

Jadi, jawabannya adalah (B). Stupid.
