An old man was sitting in front of his house. Just then, a young man walked up to him, “Excuse me, what kinds of people live in this town?” asked the young man.

“What kinds of people lived in the town you left?” the old man replied with a smile. “Oh, they were unkind and angry. I couldn’t wait to leave” said the young man. “Then those are exactly the same kinds of people you will find in this town. You might not be happy here. ” After hearing his words, the young man moved on.

About an hour later, another young man walked to the old man with a big smile on his face. “Good afternoon, sir. Could you tell me what kinds of people live in this town?” the young man asked. “What kinds of people lived in the last town you lived in?” the old man asked. “Oh, they were amazing! They were polite and helpful. I really didn’t want to leave.” answered the young man. “You’ll find the same kinds of people in this town… Welcome! I hope you decide to stay here. ”

Brownie and Spotty were neighbor dogs. They loved each other and played together so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their houses.

One evening, Brownie’s family noticed that their dog hadn’t returned home. They went looking for him, but with no success. Brownie didn’t show up the next day, and by the next week he was still missing.

Curiously, Spotty showed up at Brownie’s house alone. He barked loudly. But busy with their own lives, Brownie’s family just ignored (忽略) their neighbor’s nervous little dog.

Finally, one morning Spotty refused to take “no” for an answer. He followed Ted, Brownie’s owner, everywhere he went. He barked, then rushed towards a nearby empty lot and back, as if to say, “ Follow me!”

Finally, Ted followed the dog across the empty lot. The dog led the man to a tree a half-mile from the house. There Ted found Brownie alive. One of his legs was crushed (夹住) in a trap. Ted wished he had taken Spotty’s earlier appeals (求助) seriously.

Then Ted noticed something amazing. In a circle around the injured dog, he saw a lot of dog food. They were the remains of lots of meals.

Spotty had been visiting Brownie every day. He had stayed with Brownie to protect him, snuggling(依偎) with him at night to keep him warm and nuzzling(用鼻子爱抚) him to keep his spirits up.
