22、Mr. Hunt went to the country on business. Bad luck! The rain lasted from Tuesday to Sunday and all the traffic stopped. His bags were heavy and he could not carry them to town. He had to stay in an inn (小旅店) alone. There were only several houses in the small village and he could talk with nobody when the night fell. He could not see any televisions and there was no cinema there, either. He had to go to bed early after supper. But he often woke up early in the morning. He would not get up, but lay in bed, listening to the rain falling.

One morning he was listening to the radio on the bed. Suddenly he remembered it was his birthday that day. He borrowed a bike. It took him nearly three hours to get to the small town by bike. There was a restaurant. He told the waiter to take some nice food to him. He called out after he ate a little, “Waiter! Your food is very terrible! Call your manager (经理) here!”

“I’m sorry, sir,” said the waiter. “Our manager has gone out (已经出去) for lunch.”

【3】Mr. Hunt couldn’t watch TV or see a film in the inn.

【4】Mr. Hunt went to the small town to buy a cake for his birthday.

【5】The manager might also think the food in his restaurant was terrible.

23、Scooter is a Chinese Crested dog (冠毛犬). His body is hairless, but he has a thin white hair on his head. His back legs face backward (向后), and his tongue (舌头) often hangs out of his mouth. Scooter’s special looks won him the 2023 World’s Ugliest Dog competition.

The World’s Ugliest Dog Competition started in the 1970s in America. The competition name may not sound very nice, but it isn’t about laughing at ugly dogs. Instead, the competition shows unusual dogs. It also asks people to adopt (领养) dogs that need a loving home.

Scooter may be a star now, but his life was in danger when he was very young. He was born with his back legs facing backward, so he couldn’t walk on the back legs. But after training (训练), Scooter now can walk on his two front legs. When he needs a rest, he rests on his bottom.

Linda, who adopted Scooter, says Scooter doesn’t think that he is different from other dogs. She says Scooter sometimes shouts at much bigger dogs, and isn’t worried about the size difference. But Scooter is friendly with almost everyone.

Scooter won the first prize with $1,500. It shows that every dog, no matter what it looks like, can get love and a good home.
