I could have easily gone through life without getting to know one of the most romantic feelings---love for a dog. For at least ten years my
1 had been suggesting that we get a dog. There were several reasons why the
2 came up. We had noticed that, on our block, couples with no children as a rule
3 one large or two small dogs. So we got one puppy (小狗)
4 we too had no children.
He flew into the house with the
5 of a Formula 1 (一级方程式赛车). In several minutes he ran over all the house,
6 from my shoulder onto the bed, and ended up in the
7 , where my wife washed him with
8 care. From that day on, the invisible(看不见的)
9 for the love of the new member of our household began at my home.
He seemed to
10 that at once. Most of the meals that my wife had
11 for him with greater care than those for me—he didn’t
12 look at them.
Every evening I went out walking with him. I could not know who was walking whom
13 one evening, when, tired from work, I
14 the walk. The dog was very angry and dragged me out.
Last night our dog pulled me by the ear with his teeth,
15 me up in my dream, and dragged me into the kitchen to make me turn off the
16 which had disturbed his sleep. I meekly(乖乖地)
17 that I had forgotten to turn off the light, but that was not
18 . He looked at me like a teacher at a pupil who repeatedly makes
19 .
Now we finally know who’s the
20 at home, and for twenty years we had seriously argued whether it was my wife or I.
