I bought it,thinking that when I returned i home it would remind me 3. my wonderful Indian adventure. The book claimed that India* s;people were very welcoming,and never tried to cheat tourists.

   Suddenly,a monkey came down from a nearby tree,snatched (抢走）the book from my hand and took 4. away,along with my bag which contained all my belongings. I couldn,t do anything 5. stand and stare. Then a man approached

j me and asked 6. I wanted my belongings back. He said it would cost me five US dollars. I had no other choice,so I agreed 7. (pay) , but only aftermy bag was returned.

   He blew a whistle and the monkey 8. (immediate) threw the bag down. I picked it up and gave him the money. I later learned that the man made his 9. (live) this way — tricking tourists. This was the 10. (bad) thing I had ever experienced in “Interesting India”.
