Molly wanted a dog more than anything. Every night, she asked Mom, “Please, may we get a dog?” Every morning, she said to Dad, “A dog would be a good thing to have.”
“Dogs are work,” said Mom. “You have to walk them every day.”
“You have to feed them and brush them,” said Dad. “They need fresh water, too.”
“I will take good care of a dog,” Molly said. “I will walk him and feed him. I will brush him and make sure he always has clean water.”
Her parents said nothing. Molly felt sad. “I will never get a dog,” she said.
On her seventh birthday, a box sat on the floor. “For Molly,” said the tag. The box wiggled. Then it barked. “My dog!” cried Molly.
狗
莫莉最想要一条狗。每天晚上，她都问妈妈：“拜托，我们能养条狗吗？”每天早上，她都对爸爸说：“养条狗会很好的。”
“养狗意味着工作，”妈妈说。“你每天都得遛狗。”
“你得喂它们，给它们刷毛，”爸爸说。“他们还需要新鲜的水。”
“我会好好照顾一条狗的，”莫莉说。“我会去遛他，喂他吃的。我会给他刷毛，并确保他总是有干净的水。”
她父母什么也没说。莫莉感到难过。“我永远不会有条狗了。”她说。
在她七岁生日那天，地板上放着一个盒子。标签上写着：“给莫莉。”盒子晃动起来，然后它叫了起来。莫莉叫了起来：“我的狗！”
