Monkey Takes Selfies – level 1

21-09-2020 15:00

A student from Malaysia loses his phone. It happens when he sleeps. He does not know how it happens. It is a mystery.

Later, the student hears a sound from the forest behind his house. It is the sound of his phone. The man finds his phone.

The man speaks to his uncle. His uncle asks the man to check the camera in his phone. Maybe a picture of the thief is in the phone. The man’s uncle is right.

Many pictures of the thief are in the phone. However, the thief is very unusual. It is a monkey. The monkey takes selfies. The monkey makes a video. He tries to eat the phone.

The man lives in a safe place. Monkeys do not usually steal things there. However, it is possible that the monkey gets in the house through an open window.

Difficult words: mystery (something that people cannot explain), thief (a person who steals something), selfie (when you take a picture or a video of yourself).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
