22．British musician plays the piano for monkeys When the British musician Paul Barton performs in central Thailand，his listeners react excitedly.
Some pull his hair.Some jump on his piano.Others make loud noises and play with each other.
This is normal.However，because the listeners are truly wild---wild monkeys in fact.Barton keeps his attention on his "show"，even as a small monkey runs over his hands and other monkeys take control of his music papers.He often plays to animals in Lopburi，an area known for its populations of wildlife.He has so far played at four places in Lopburi with his crazy group of animal fans.
The musician hopes to bring calm to the animals there.Nowadays，there are fewer people coming to see the monkeys and feed them.As result，the animals are hungry and angry.To Barton's surprise，music helps the animals calm down. "I'm glad to see that the monkeys seem to change when I play the piano.It looks like they are 'eating' the music I'm playing." The musician says that he will continue his work.
"I'm so happy to be able to help the poor animals in such a hard time." Barton calls on more people to pay attention to the monkeys' hunger problem. "We need to make efforts to make sure that they can get enough food to eat."
（1）Why are the monkeys hungry and angry？
（2）What does the underlined sentence mean？
（3）We often feel angry sometimes.Do you have any good ways to calm yourself down？What are they？組卷：17引用：1難度：0.4
