阅读理解 Years ago while lying in my hammock(吊床)and drinking JD from the bottle, I noticed my dog dragging something under the fence.Upon looking at it carefully, to my disappointment, I realized it was the next door neighbor's 10-year-old daughter's rabbit.For years I had watched her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the yard.I know today would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast. The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it off with the plastic pipe, combed it with the dog brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower.Upon finishing its grooming(修饰,打扮), I jumped the fence and replaced it back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as“natural causes”. Back to the hammock and JD.Within the hour the neighbor's Benz pulled in as usual and out pepped the little girl, and as usual she headed straight for the cage.Only this time did she stop about six feet away and screamed:“D…A…D…D…Y…!!!” Her father, panic stricken, stood looking at the cage.Being the good neighbor that I rushed to the fence and asked if there was anything I could do. Her father less than calmly shouted,“What kind of sick person would dig up a little girl's dead rabbit and put it back in its cage?” |
