They don't sit in the box for a while

它们并不会坐在迷笼里
and mull it over and then figure out how to do it.

思索问题然后找到解决的方法
Instead, what they do is they bounce all around doing different things

相反它们来回乱窜做各种尝试
and gradually get better and better at it.

然后逐渐对于从迷笼中逃脱变得熟练
So, what they do is, the first time they might scratch at the bars,

起初小猫可能会抓栏杆
push at the ceiling, dig at the floor, howl, etc.

推顶棚挖底板吼叫等等
And one of their behaviors is pressing the lever.

其中的一个动作便是压杠杆
The lever gets them out of the box,

杠杆让它们逃出迷笼
but after more and more trials

但在经历多次尝试之后
they stopped scratching at the bars,

它们不再抓栏杆
pushing at the ceiling and so on.

不再推顶棚
They just pressed the lever.

它们只会去压动杠杆
