III Reading Comprehension.
(A)
Our summer vacation begins on July 15th and lasts nearly two months. Considering my brain needs a rest after a period of hard work, I, together with my family, went to my country home, a very small farmhouse in which my grandparents used to live, to spend the summer. Obviously, life, in the country is very different from that in the city.
Early in the morning I took a walk along the field side. The air was fresh and pure. With a dog following, sometimes I ran a race in the meadows covered with tall grass. Sometimes I climbed up the hill to see the sun slowly yet steadily rise from the dreams, singing restlessly among the bushes. In order to enjoy the quietness of the country, I gave myself entirely to nature, with a light heart and a happy mind. Sometimes in the afternoon I, together with my cousins, took a rod and went to the river to fish. It made the family happy when they saw me returning with a basketful of large fresh fish. When night came, I would sit at the door and tell the most wonderful and interesting stories to my cousins, who listened to the tale of wonder with open eyes and mouth.

Mr. and Mrs. Brown were going abroad for their holiday. They had a dog called Blackie which they were very fond of, but they could not take him abroad with them, so they looked for a good place to leave him in while they were away, and at last found a place which looked after dogs very well while their owners were away. They took Blackie there just before they left for their holiday, and sadly said good-bye to him.
At the end of their holiday, they got back to England very late at night, and as they thought that the place where Blackie was staying might be closed at that hour, they decided to wait until the next morning before going to get him back.

When he reached home with the dog , he said to his wife, “Do you know, dear, I don’t think Blackie can have enjoyed his stay at that place very much. He barked(叫) all the way home in the car as if he wanted to tell me something.
Mrs. Brown looked at the dog carefully and then answered, “you are quite right, dear, he was certainly trying to tell you something.
