A few hours later, he woke up and realized that all his hats were gone. 一个卖帽人路过一片森林，决定在一棵树下小憩一会，他把整篮帽子放在傍边。 过了几个小时他醒来，发现到他的帽子都不见了。 He looked up and to his surprise, the tree was full of monkeys and they had taken all his hats. He sits down and thinks of how he can get the hats down. 他抬起头往上一看，让他十分吃惊，树上爬满了猴子，都戴着他的帽子。他坐下 来寻思，怎么才能把帽子都弄拿回来。 While thinking he started to scratch his head. At the moment, the monkeys were doing the same. Next, he took down his own hat, the monkeys did exactly the same. An idea came to him, he took his hat and threw it on the floor and the monkeys did that too. So he finally managed to get all his hats back.from the monkeys. 他开始挠头思考，猴子们也学样开始挠头。接下来，他摘下自己的帽子，猴子们也都 摘下帽子。他想出一个主意，摘下帽子扔在地上，猴子们也摘下帽子，把它们扔倒地 上。就这样，他成功地把帽子从猴子那里取了回来。 Fifty years later, his grandson, also became a hat-seller and had heard this monkey story from his grandfather father. One day, just like his grandfather, he passed by the same forest. It was very hot, and he took a nap under the same tree and left the hats on the floor. 五十年后，他的孙子也成为一个卖帽人。他听说过猴子从爷爷拿帽人的故事。有一天， 像他爷爷一样，他路过同一片森林。天很热，他在同一棵树下打盹，把帽子都放在地 上。
He woke up and realized that all his hats were taken by the monkeys on the tree. He remembered his grandfather's words, he started scratching his head and the monkeys followed. He took down his hat and fanned himself and again the monkeys followed. 他醒来发现他帽子都被树上的猴子拿走了。他记起爷爷的话，开始挠头，猴子们也学 样挠头。他摘下帽子拿它扇风，猴子们也摘下帽子拿它们扇风。 Now, very convinced of his grandfather's idea, he threw his hat on the floor but to his surprise, the monkeys still held on to all the hats. 这时候他很信他爷爷的法子，于是把帽子扔在地上，但让他惊讶的是，猴子们手里仍 拿着帽子，没有一只猴扔帽子。 Then one monkey climbed down the tree, grabbed the hat on the floor, gave him a slap and said, "You think only you have a grandfather?" 接着有一只猴爬下树，抓起地上的帽子，击打了他一下说道：“你以为只有你有爷爷 吗?”
