задайте 10 вопросов к тексту a clever trick


It was a cold and stormy night. A traveller was riding a horse. It was raining cats and

dogs and he was wet to the skin. He had been riding for a few hours before he could find

an inn.

When he entered the inn he saw a lot of people there. They were sitting in front of the

fire and there wasn't a seat left for him.

A good idea struck him. He called the waiter and said to him in a loud voice: "Boy, take

a plate of oysters to my horse."

Everybody was surprised. The waiter put some oysters on the plate and went out.

Naturally, the other people went out to see if the horse would eat the oysters.

A few minutes later the waiter returned with the news that the horse had refused to eat

the oysters. When the other people returned they saw that the traveller was sitting

comfortably in a chair. He was warming his feet beside the fire. And suddenly

everybody realized why the traveller had ordered the waiter to take the oysters to the

horse.
