The king had a beautiful daughter whom he loved very much,and she secretly loved a young commoner(平民).When the king discovered their relationship,the man was immediately put in prison,and a day was set for him to enter the arena.
The princess knew behind which door stood the tiger,and behind which a lady.She also knew that the lady was one of the loveliest in the kingdom.Now and then the princess had seen her looking at and talking to the young man.The princess hated the woman behind that silent door.
As he entered the arena and his eyes met the princess’s,the young man knew that she knew behind which door waited the tiger,and behind which stood the lady.The princess raised her hand,and made a short,quick movement toward the right.No one but her lover saw it.Every eye was fixed on him.He turned,and with a firm,quick step he walked across the empty space to the door on the right and opened it.
Now,the point of the story is this:Did the tiger come out of that door,or did the lady?The more we think about this question,the harder it is to answer.It involves a study of the human heart.The soul of the princess loved the young man but also burned under the fires of sadness and jealousy(嫉妒).
The question of her decision cannot be easily answered.And so I leave it with all of you:which came out of the open door—the lady,or the tiger?
5.Whether the accused was declared guilty mainly depended on ______.
