A strange thing happened in our garden the other day. I went out to play with the dog for a few minutes, and 1 that the dog was barking 2 a big tree. I went to look at it and saw a hole at the 3 of the tree. I didn't know how long it had been there.
The dog was very 4 and started to dig at the hole. 5 what was in the hole, I got the garden hose (软管) and turned 6 the water. Then I pushed the hose 7 the hole and waited to see what would happen.
At first nothing happened. 8 suddenly a large rat rushed out of the hole, ran 9 the garden and disappeared into some waste ground behind the garden. 10 this unexpected incident, the poor dog was 11 to react. It ran to the fence and 12 into the trees, but without any 13 .
Now 14 we go into the garden, the dog always goes to the hole and waits eagerly 15 to the hole again.
