     It was Christmas morning and she felt sorry. "Mr. Harriet, I'm so sorry to bother you today. I think you
 want a rest at Christmas like anybody else. "
     "Please don't worry about that," I said. "Which one is it this time?"
     "It's not one of the dogs. It's. . . Debbie. "
     "Debbie? She's at your house now?"
     "Yes… but there's something wrong. Please come quickly. "
     When I went to Mrs. Ainsworth's home, Debbie was there all right, but this time everything was
 different. She wasn't sitting in her usual place;  she was lying down quietly on her side, and close to her lay
  a little black kitten.
      I examined Debbie carefully while Mrs. Ainsworth looked at me. Her voice seemed to come from
 afar. "Is she ill,  Mr. Harriet?"
      "Yes… yes,  I'm afraid so. She is very ill. " I stood up. "There's really nothing you can do. I'm sorry. "
      Mrs. Ainsworth reached out and touched black Debbie's body. "Isn't it strange? She was dying and
 she brought her kitten here. And on Christmas Day. "
     Tears went down Mrs. Ainsworth's face and she was bright-eyed as she looked at me. "I've never had
 a cat before." She said.
     I smiled. "Well, it looks as though you've got one now. "
     "Debbie would be pleased. " She said.
      I nodded. "Yes,  she would. . . It was just a year ago that she came here,  wasn't it?"
     "That's right. " She looked at the kitten kindly. "The best Christmas present I have ever had. "

       Cyrus McCormick grew up on a farm in Virginia. His dream was to earn a million dollars. In 1833
that was a lot of money. An ordinary worker only earned a nickel(镍币)an hour. Twenty-six years later,
he earned a million dollars. He also changed the way people farmed,with his wheat harvester called the
reaper(收割机). Cyrus was very generous,sharing his money with people who needed help. Before his
invention ,a farmer could harvest only one to three acres (英亩) a day. With the invention, a farmer and
a helper could harvest 12 acres a day!
       He had invented the reaper when he was only 22 years old. His father had tried for 15 years to invent a harvester, but had not been able to build one successfully. He had made a lot of mistakes, but young
Cyrus learned from his father's mistakes.   He asked his father if he could take over working on the
invention. His father gave his permission, but thought it was hopeless (没有希望的) .In just 2 months he
was able to make a harvester. When he tested it,he could harvest an acre an hour.
根据短文内容,回答问题。
