English book Animal Farm （195）tells a story about farm animals．They are fed up with （受够了） Mr Jones，the farmer．He treats them badly，so they decide to kick him off the farm and run the farm themselves．
One day an old pig called Old Major gathers the animals around him．He tells them that all animals should stand together．He says they should take over the farm．They say that all animals are equal．
After they get rid of （摆脱） Mr Jones，two pigs become the leaders of Animal Farm．One pig called Snowball is a great speaker．He has big ideas for Animal Farm．The other leader is a pig called Napoleon．Napoleon is a crafty （狡猾的） animal．He brings together supporters by offering them advantages．
Napoleon makes a war against Snowball and kicks him away from the farm．He turns Snowball into a big enemy．He says that Snowball is working with Farmer Jones and other farmers to do harm to Animal Farm．
But as it turns out it is Napoleon who is working with the enemies of the animals．He joins up with the old human enemies of the animals．But he tells the animals that he is working for them．At the same time the animals work hard．It seems that it is as bad to live under Napoleon as it was under Farmer Jones!

2．When I was a baby，I interested you and made you laugh．Whenever I was"bad"，you'd shake your finger at me and ask："How could you？"-but then you'd give up，and roll me over for a belly scratch（腹部抓痒） and I believed that life could not be any more perfect．
My housetraining was a long process，because you were terribly busy，but we worked on that together．We went for long walks，runs in the park and car rides．We stopped for ice cream．I took long sleeps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day．
Step by step，you began spending more time at work and on your career，and more time searching for a human friend．Finally，you fell in love．She，now your wife，is not a dog person，but I still welcomed her into our home．I was happy because you were hapy．Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement，I was attracted by their pinkness，how they smelled，and I wanted to mother them too．Your wife was afraid I would bite them．However，as they began to grow，I became their friend．
Now，you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to a flat that does not allow pets．You've made the right decision for your"family"，but there was a time when I was your only family．
I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound（收容所）．It smelled of dogs and cats，of fear，of hopelessness．You filled out the paperwork and said："I know you will find a good home for her．"They shrugged（耸肩） and gave you a pained look．The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye．And"How could you？"were the only three words that swept over my mind．
Is it better to live with hope or without hope？At first，whenever anyone passed my pen，I rushed to the front，hoping it was you，that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream．
My beloved master，I will think of you and wait for you forever．I hope you receive more faithfulness（忠诚） from your family than you showed to me．
