Dick hated the dog very much because the dog frightened the fish away. "Why do you2your dog here?" said Dick to Kidom. "he3here and there. All the fish are frightened and swim4 ." "You are right." answered Kidom. "Next time, I shall come without Vick. Shall we go home now, Dick?" Just then Dick shouted, "Wait. A5is biting (咬)my line. I can feel it." Dick was very glad. He forgot the danger. He went to pull the line. The boy fell down into the water. "Help! Help! I can't swiim." Dick shouted, up and down in the water .

But Kidom could not swim, either. Just then Vick came up. The dog jumped into the water and pulled Dick onto the dry land by biting 's shirt with his teeth. Dick was saved. He was still holding the line in his hand. On its end was a big fish.
