James,the groom(马 夫).She says no one was kind to her before.But James and John Manly,our grooms,are very kind to us,and Squire Gordon doesn,t whip his horses.One day the Squire and Mrs Gordon decided to visit some friends who lived about forty-six milesfrom our home,and James drove them.In the evening we stopped at a big hotel to spend the night.We drove into a yard,The stablemanbrought us into the stable and two grooms looked after us.One man Towler,had a pipe in his mouth.nTowler,nthe stableman said.nGet some hay(干 草)for these horses,Put your pipe down first!”All right,nsaid Towler,He got the hay,and left.I did not know what time it was,but I woke up in the middle of the night.I felt very uncomfortable.Ginger was coughing.It was dark,and I could not see anything,but the stable was full of smoke,and it washard to breathe.I heard a strange noise.I did not know what the noise was,but I was very afraid.At last I heard steps outside and the stableman came in with a light.He tried to lead the horses out butthey were in fear.Finally he came to me next and tried to d rar me out.I did not want to go.In the end,hetried us all and then left the stable.Maybe we were foolish,but we knew we were in danger and we did not trust anyone.I looked up and I saw a red light dancing on the wall.Then I heard the shout of Firecoming fromoutside.Next 1 heard James*voice,calm and cheerfill.nCome,my beauties,wake up and come with me,nhesaid.He tied his scarf over my eyes and led me out of stable,and out of danger.Then he ran back inside.Igave a whinny as I saw him go.Ginger told me later that she heard my whinny and it gave her thecourage(勇 气)to come out.I heard a crash in the stable,then I saw James with Ginger:she was coughing and he was not able tospeak.We survived,but I knew that two horses burned to death in the stable it was terrible!We felt very sad.The next morning James heard that Dick Towler was responsible(担 责 彳 王 的)for the fire.The nightbefore,a man saw him in the stable

writing that used pictures instead of words.When theChinese wanted to write something that meantfish J they d 77 a picture of a fish.As time went by,many pictures stopped looking like the things they stood for as the pictures gotmuch simpler.These simplified p 78 are now called characters(字 符).Characters can be drawn morequickly than pictures.People can also use them to express ideas.The characters for rain,fbr example,alsocame to mean“the growth of crops.”Characters are s 79_used today.Originally,the Chinese language did not have an alphabet asEnglish does.Instead,there was a separate(单 独 的)character fbr each word.Because of this,Chinese hasthousands of d 80 characters.Now we usually write Chinese characters in one of three styles.These styles i 81cursive,script(草 书),raditional scrip(繁 体 字),and simplified scrip(简 体 字).Cursive script is often used forart and decoration.Traditional script is very beautiful.Some people like to use traditional characters towrite
