    A farmer had some puppies ( baby dogs ) to sell . As he was putting up an ad on the edge of his yard , he felt a pull on his trousers . He looked down into the eyes of a little boy .

    “ Mister , ” he said , “ I want to buy one your puppies . ”

    “ Well , ” said the farmer , “ these puppies come from fine parents and cost much money . ”

    The boy dropped his head for a moment . Then reaching deep into his pocket , he pulled out a handful of change and held it up to the farmer . “ I’ve got thirty-nine cents . Is that enough to take a look ? ”

    “ Sure , ” said the farmer .

    And with that he called , “ Here , Dolly ! ”

    Out from the doghouse ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur ( 绒毛 ) . The little boy’s eyes danced with joy . As the dogs made their way to the fence ( 栅栏 ) , the little boy noticed something else inside the doghouse . Slowly another little ball appeared ; this one noticeably smaller . Then in a somewhat awkward manner ( 笨拙地 ) the little pup began running toward the others , doing its best to catch up .

    “ I want that one . ” the little boy said , pointing to the smallest puppy .

    The farmer knelt ( 跪 ) down at the boy’s side and said , “ Son , you don’t want that puppy . He will never b e able to run and play with you like these other dogs would . ”

    With that the little boy stepped back from the fence , reached down , and began rolling up ( 卷起 ) one leg of his trousers . In doing so he showed a steel brace ( 金属支架 ) running down both sides of his leg and a specially made shoe . Looking back up at the farmer , he said , “ You see , sir , I don’t run too well myself , and he will need someone who understands . ”

    Actually our world is full of people who need someone who understands .
