In Lopburi, Thailand, there is an interesting festival—the Monkey Buffet Festival (猴子自助餐节). It is on the last Sunday of November and it is a great day for monkeys. People there think monkeys can bring good luck to them, so they have this special (特别的) festival to thank monkeys. Now, the monkey is one of Lopburi' s symbols.
Every year on that day, people prepare (准备) more than 300 kg of fruit, vegetables, cakes and even drinks for the monkeys. About 20, 000 monkeys enjoy their delicious food during the festival. People from different places come to see the monkeys on that day.
During the festival, there are a lot of interesting activities (活动) about monkeys. People always dress up as (打扮成) monkeys and they sing, dance and play music on the street. People take photos of the monkeys and play with them. Everyone has a great time there.
Monkeys are smart animals. They always live in groups. When they are in danger, they fight with their enemies (敌人). Most of them live in the trees. They are good at climbing trees. Monkeys can do some easy work for people. They can even work out some easy maths problems.
