How A Donkey Reads
During a conversation with Tamerlane, Hodja started bragging about his donkey. “It is so smart that I can teach it even how to read,”He said.
“Then go ahead and teach it reading. I give you 3 months.” Tamerlane ardered. Hodja went home and began to train his donkey. He put its feed between the pages of a big book and taught it to turn the pages by its tongue to find its feed. Three days before the three month period was over, he stopped feeding it.
When he took his donkey to Tamerlane, he asked for a big book and put it in front of the donkey. The hungry animal turned the pages of the book one by one with its tongue and when it couldn’t find any feed between the pages it started braying.
Tamerlane watched the donkey closely and then said, “This is sure a strange way of reading!”
Hodja remarked,
“But this is how a donkey reads.”

Soal menanyakan karakter seperti apakah Hodja.
Teks tersebut menceritakan kisah Hodja yang menyombongkan kepada Tamerlane bahwa keledainya bisa membaca. Setelah diberi waktu oleh Tamelane selama 3 bulan untuk mengajari keledainya membaca, Hodja berbuat curang dengan cara menaruh makanan di sela-sela lembaran buku besar, lalu keledai membalik setiap lembaran buku untuk memakan makanan yang diselipkan oleh Hodja. Dengan demikian, si keledai terlihat seperti sedang membaca. Hingga pada akhirnya, ketika menunjukkannya kepada Tamerlane, dia tidak menyelipkan lagi makanan di sela-sela setiap halaman, sehingga keledai tetap membalik setiap halaman seolah seperti membaca dan karena tidak menemukan apapun keledai itu mulai meringkik.
Berdasarkan informasi tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa Hodja adalah orang yang berakal panjang dan cenderung licik yang dalam bahasa Inggris disebut “cunning”.
Oleh karena itu, jawabannya adalah: b. He is cunning.
Semoga terbantu dan tetap semangat belajar, ya. 🙂
