变聋
A biology class student was conducting an experiment on what would happen to a grasshopper 1 if its legs were taken off.
一个学生物的学生正在做实验要验证切除蚂蚱的腿后会发生什么。
He pulled off one of its legs and yelled "hop 2!", and the grasshopper hopped 3.
他先切除了蚂蚱的一条腿，然后叫“跳！”，蚂蚱跳了一下。
Then he took another leg and yelled "hop!" and the grasshopper hopped.
然后他又切除了蚂蚱的一条腿，然后叫“跳”，蚂蚱又跳了一下。
Then he took all of its legs and yelled "hop!" but the insect did not hop.
接着他把蚂蚱剩下的腿都切除了，然后叫“跳！”，这回蚂蚱没跳。
He yelled again, but the insect did not hop.
他又叫“跳！”，蚂蚱还是没跳。
So he came to the conclusion that when all the legs of a grasshopper are removed, it will become deaf!
