Chapter 6, Section 12 How the gorilla steals bananas?

Gorillas can also understand the world and solve problems in a wonderful way. ? ?

A gorilla was placed in a room with a bunch of bananas hanging from the roof. Although the gorilla could see the bananas, it couldn't reach them.There are several boxes on the floor in the room. ?
Faced with this situation, the orangutan tried to jump up and grab the banana at first, but it failed; it stopped jumping, but walked around the room, as if observing the things in the room. ?
After a while, the orangutan suddenly walked up to the box and stood still.After a while, it moved the box under the banana, jumped on the box, and got the banana.If one box is not tall enough, the orangutans can also stack two or more boxes to reach the bananas. ?
Mind walk?

This is an interesting experiment by German psychologist Kohler. He believes that orangutans do not learn how to get bananas by trial and error, but learn how to solve problems in an instant.Kohler also believes that this kind of learning can be explained by "perceptual reorganization": the orangutan suddenly discovered the relationship between the box and the banana, and it recombined the existing knowledge and experience in the cognitive structure, thus finding a way to solve the problem. new method. ?
