48 What the Little Dog Knew 一、请根据两个提示句进行故事续写，150词左右。In a wheelchair beside the nurses station, a tiny old woman sits, eyes closed, lips parted, hands folded in her lap. Visitors pass. No one acknowledges her presence. Its as if shes invisible.As nursing homes go, its a good one. Ive come to visit a friend, and since they allow dogs to visit, Ive brought my Boston Terrier(波士顿猎犬), Jake, to cheer her up. Im annoyed that the staff has left this pitiful, old woman in the middle of the main hall, so that everyone has to walk around her. I give her a wide berth(远远躲开)as I pass, turn away my eyes.But Jake stops, sits down by her wheelchair, and refuses to move. Im in a hurry and more than a little frustrated. I change my mind when the old woman suddenly opens her eyes and raises her head. Her watery eyes twinkle. To my astonishment, she is not asleep. She reaches her finger down and touches the little dogs ear gently. He stands, and keeps licking her finger, and then sits again, looking up expectantly. They regard each other silently. She smiles at me. “I love Boston Terriers. We used to have two of them: Maggie and Max. We got them as puppies from the same litter. They were inseparable and looked alike. They lived to be almost fourteen years old! Max died first, and within a few months, we lost Maggie, too. She died of a broken heart, poor little thing. Missed her buddy so badly, shed hardly eat.” I lift Jake up, bending over to chair height so she can pet him. “Hes so soft. Id forgotten how soft they are,” she gently touches his ears. “So soft” With his large eyes wide open, Jake quite enjoys such a treatment. She turns to me suddenly, a bright smile on her face. “Susan? Oh, I knew youd come. Im so glad to see you. And you brought Maggie! Its been so long since Ive seen her Shes so soft. So soft” Her voice is fading now. Her eyes are closing. Its time to go.As I walk away, I see people I hadnt noticed before. _We started therapy-dog training the next week, and since then, we have visited many nursing homes. _二、原版品读What the Little Dog KnewIn a wheelchair beside the nurses station, a tiny old woman sits, eyes closed, lips parted, hands folded in her lap. Maybe shes asleep, perhaps even comatose. Visitors pass. A nurse rushes by, jostles her wheel-chair, and offers no apology. No one acknowledges her presence. Its as if shes invisible.As nursing homes go, its a good one. Its clean, almost pristine. Ive come to visit a friend, and since they allow dogs to visit, Ive brought my Boston Terrier, Jake, to cheer her up. Im annoyed that the staff has left this pitiful, old woman in the middle of the main hall, so that everyone has to walk around her. It certainly doesnt do much for the facilitys image, I think to myself. I give her a wide berth as I pass, averting my eyes.But Jake stops, sits down by her wheelchair, and refuses to move. I tug at his leash. “Jake, come! Jake! Lets go!”Hes usually pretty good on the lead, but this time hes having none of it. Apparently, he thinks he has reached his destination. Im in a hurry and more than a little frustrated. I change my mind when the old woman suddenly opens her eyes and raises her head. A smile slowly spreads across her weathered face at the unexpected sight of a little dog at her feet. Her watery eyes twinkle. A soft voice breaks the silence.“Well, hello there! And arent you a pretty little thing?”To my astonishment, she is entirely lucid. A bony finger reaches down and strokes the little dogs ear. He stands, reciprocates with a swift lick of her finger, and then sits again, tongue sidewise, looking up expectantly. They regard each other silently. She reaches down and gently strokes his back.She smiles at me. “I love Boston Terriers. We used to have two of them: Maggie and Max. We got them as puppies from the same litter. They were inseparable. Two peas in a pod. They lived to be almost fourteen years old! Max died first, and within a few months, we lost Maggie, too. She died of a broken heart, poor little thing. Missed her buddy so badly, shed hardly eat.” She straightens in her chair, pushes her hair out of her face. I lift Jake up, bending over to chair height so she can pet him. “Hes so soft. Id forgotten how soft they are,” she strokes his ears. “So soft” Jakes large eyes bug out in solemn appreciation. She turns to me suddenly, a bright smile on her face. “Susan? Oh, I knew youd come. Im so glad to see you. And you brought Maggie! Its been so long since Ive seen her Shes so soft. So soft” Her voice is fading now. Her eyes are closing.Its time to go.As I walk away, I see people I hadnt noticed before. People with walkers, in wheelchairs, sitting alone on sofas. Tears well in my eyes. I consider myself a caring person, and yet I had rushed past all these people as though they were scenery. I tell myself I was busy, didnt know these people, or might upset them. But the truth is, I didnt know what to do.But Jake knows. It doesnt matter to him that the woman is elderly and disabled, that others ignore her. He isnt afraid of her. She offered him love, and he simply returned it. He wasnt in a rush; he lives in the moment. In that brief encounter, his simple gift of love worked a miracle on the woman in the wheelchair, and just as importantly, on me.We started therapy-dog training the next week. Since then, we have visited many nursing homes. Each time, I witness a miracle. A woman who babbles incoherently suddenly speaks clearly to Jake as he looks up at her. An Alzheimers patient who doesnt speak and “dislikes” dogs smiles as he holds Jake in his lap. A younger man, bedridden with ALS, chuckles as I place Jake on a pillow next to him.I cant explain these little miracles; I only know they continue to happen. Perhaps these arent miracles at all; perhaps there is a perfectly logical explanation. It really doesnt matter. What matters is the transformation in another persons life that a simple act of kindness can bring about.I.
