My friend Monty Roberts told me a story about a young boy. One day at school, the boy was asked to write a paper 26 what he wanted to be and do when he grew up.
That night he wrote a seven – paper 27 his dream of owning a farm. He put a great deal of his heart into the paper and the next day he handed it in to his 28 . Two days later he received his paper back. On the 29 page was a large red F with a 30 that read, “See me after class.” The boy went to see the teacher after class and asked, “ 31 did I receive an F?” The teacher said, “This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you.

I stole your dog. No, I didn't set foot in your house, but from the condition of your dog, I can imagine what it looks like-the word "rubbish" comes to mind.
I found her along a road, with a heavy chain wrapped around her neck, still attached to rotten boards
from her doghouse. Not only did I know that most of the town's people had already ignored her, judging
by the place where I found her, but I knew that if she had gotten into the woods, the "cross" that she
dragged behind her would have wrapped itself around a tree until starvation or thirst killed her.
She has a beautiful name now. Already in the first week she has come to look more like what she
should. Her eyes sparkle and she has learned to wag her tail in greeting. She has stopped flinching (畏缩) when I make a sudden movement, because she knows now that I won't beat her. In fact, she rarely leaves my side. She's even become brave enough to bark at a cat and today as I looked out of the window she
attempted to play with other dogs. No, it's clear that she does not miss you or her former life on a chain.
It's not clear yet whether she'll remain here or whether I'll find her a loving home where she can count
on more individual attention than I can give her, but one thing is certain, this is a bit of stolen "property"
which is never returning to you. So sue me, accuse me, and plead with the court that she is rightfully
yours... I'm convinced that this is the best "crime" I've ever committed. Hardly anything has pleased me
more than the day when I stole your dog. I need only look into her beautiful brown eyes to know that she'd defend my decision with her life. If we have one prayer, it is that you will not replace her, and if we have
one special day to celebrate together, it is the day I stole your dog and the day she stole my heart.
