"Oh, my son!"
a lady cried. Her child fell into the
river. The water carried him away quickly. A man came and said, "Can you
give me the clothes or shoes of your son?"
The lady gave him a pair
of shoes. The man turned to his dog. He first pointed to the shoes, and then to
where the child had sunk(下沉).
The dog jumped into the
river. Soon people saw him swim back with something in his mouth. When
people pulled the child and the dog from the water, everyone was happy. The
lady ran to her son. The child was alive(活着的)! The lady said
to the dog's owner, "Oh, sir. Thanks for saving my son. I'd love to give
you anything to buy the dog!"
"Madam, I am very
glad that my dog helped you. But I would
not give him to others for anything in the world," said the man.
It seemed that the dog
knew they were talking about him. He lay down beside his owner's feet and
seemed to say, "Nothing can separate(使分离) me from my
owner. "
