這是怎么一回事?

希臘有一個(gè)關(guān)于怪物的故事，它要問(wèn)人們一個(gè)問(wèn)題，如要他們不能正確回答，它就殺了他們，這個(gè)問(wèn)題是：

它在早上有四條腿;

它在中午有兩條腿;

在晚上它有三條腿;

它是什么?

怪物殺了很多人。有一個(gè)人成功地猜測(cè)正確答案：這是一個(gè)男人。當(dāng)一個(gè)人是一個(gè)嬰兒(他生命的早晨)，他爬在手和腳上(四“腿”)。當(dāng)他長(zhǎng)大，他在兩只腳走路。當(dāng)他老了，他拄著拐杖走路，所以他有三的“腿”。

這些問(wèn)題都是所謂的“謎”。你會(huì)在所有語(yǔ)言中找到他們。有些是硬的，有些是容易的。下面是一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的人：

它有條腿卻不能走路。它是什么?

這是一把椅子。你能想到其他回答這個(gè)謎嗎?
