第一节 英语 ——我的狗
My Dog
If you really want me to talk about this, the first thing you may want to know is that he is my dog, a really really silly dog. He grabs
my pillow every night! Once I kicked him under my bed, and he jumped on my bed and bit me again. I had to fight with him on my bed.I can't believe that I fought with a dog, and I lost. I thought that makes no sense, so I pushed him out of my door and locked it. It is my room,isn't it? But anyway, he is my dog, so I have to take care of him. I promise I have never had a dog like him. He sees anywhere as his bathroom.That's a terrible habit. When I was in China, I never let him wear a dog chain, and he never barked at anyone. He did something that I never thought he would do. When I was walking with him, I didn't have the chain. He followed me all the time. One time, though, suddenly he ran away, and stopped at the middle of the street. That was 10:00 pm, so there were no cars in the street. Why did he stop in the middle of the street? After a few seconds, I knew the answer. He smelt around and squatted right in the middle of the street. He thought that was his bathroom!
I can't believe that happened to my dog! He left a piece of shit right in the middle of the street. I bet he is the bravest dog in this world. I don't know how I can describe him. He was crazy, even more crazier than my aunt. When I was thinking about how I could take my dog's feces, a car came...I can't say how the feces smelt. Anyway, that means I have to chain my dog next time.
Another thing about my dog is that, he has never beaten any cat. That's all I worry about. I mean, if he really wants to fight with a cat, the result is that he is beaten by a little cat, Ha! I was trying to teach him how to fight but he never listens to me. That's his problem, so I decided to let him choose his life.
If you want to know why there is a scar on my forehead, I will tell you the truth. My dog did that great job. Most people think he scratched me or something. When I was 11 years old, I played with him at home. He fought with me just because I robbed his toy bug. He almost got mad! So he pushed me on the ground and bit into his toy. He was trying to get his toy back, and he did it. He ran away as quickly as he could. But I didn't give up. I called that bullshit. I was crazy sometimes,you know. So I chased him. When he turned into my room, there was something on the ground that tripped me. My mom said she heard something make a big noise, like rat-tat. Then she went out of her room and saw me lying on the floor. Then I went to hospital and stitched my wound.I collided with the door. The doctor said if that door was made of iron, I wouldn't be standing here.
But I forgave my dog, because it wasn't his fault. It was the door's fault.I was so mad that I kept punching my door everyday. Anyway, back to my dog. Both of us like eating. We are unstoppable when we are having lunch and dinner. I tried my dog's food once. I figured out that dog food smells so good, but when you really eat it, it tastes like my aunt's dish. The funny thing is, my dog always puts his leg on my leg when he is watching me eat. I think he is poor, so I let him smell the food, then I continue eating it. That's fair enough.
To tell you the truth, I spent one night finishing this story about my dog.
我叫薛楸禹,是一名来自安徽合肥的美国留学生。现居学校为处在康涅狄格州New Haven的Hamden Hall Country Day School。我呢,虽然成绩不是太好,但是能说一口流利的英语。个人比较喜欢和外国朋友交往。当然啦,我的中国好哥们儿也不少。
我的个子是1米72,15周岁,最爱的动物就是狼,其次是各种各样的神话动物。我喜欢狼的程度达到了希望快快长大,然后在后背纹一匹狼的图案。平时喜欢看日本动漫和玩游戏,当然,一天最开心的时候就是打棒球的时候。
我两年前初到美国时就被美国人最喜欢的体育项目之一棒球吸引住了。没有玩过棒球的同学们不知道,当对方将球击打到外野的时候,我的心情简直不敢想象!当棒球稳稳地落到我的手套里时,球与手套撞击一刹那的声音和震感能赶跑一天不顺心的压力!秋天的时候,在学校提供的所有运动里,我最喜欢的当然还是足球!只可惜棒球才是我的真爱!
我在中国的同学都认为美国学习很轻松,不需要费什么脑子,其实,也没有他们想得这么简单。我们虽然学习的内容很简单,但是工作量比较大。中国学校注重作业和考试,我们却有Essay, Project, Presentation, Term Paper, Quiz, Test, Exam, Pop Quiz, Slide Show, Lab Report, Creative Writing等,都是一些比较麻烦的东西。学英语真的不轻松啊,托福 、SAT什么的,都是每一个留学生的仇人啊……

我非常喜欢这篇有趣的文章。作者很有趣,很真诚。我很佩服小男孩和这只特殊的小狗之间的友谊,尽管他们之间有过摩擦。
我的狗
如果你真的想听我说说我的狗,那我首先得告诉你,它是一只很傻的狗。每天晚上它都霸占我的枕头,如果我因此把它踢下去,它就会再跳上来咬我一口。我不得不在床上和它展开战斗,我简直不敢相信,自己竟然和一只狗打架,而且我还输了。但我觉得这样的争斗毫无意义,这是我的房间!于是我把它轰出去,然后锁上门。但不论如何,我是它的主人,我有义务照顾它。我发誓从来没有见过这样的狗,它有一个很可怕的习惯,就是不分时间地点地任意大小便。在中国的时候,我一直没给它栓链子,它也从来不向陌生人乱叫。它的行为超出了我的预料,当它跟我出去时,虽然没有链子,但它也会紧紧地跟着我。但是有一次,走着走着它突然跑开,在马路中间停了下来,幸好当时是晚上10点多,路上车很少。它为什么要待在那儿?几秒钟后我知道了答案,原来它把那儿当厕所了。
我简直不敢相信这是我的狗干出来的事!他在马路中间拉了一泡屎,我打赌它是世界上最勇敢的狗,我简直不知道应该如何形容它,它甚至比我那个疯狂的阿姨还要更疯狂。当我正在琢磨要怎么把这坨粪便弄走时,一辆车飞快地开了过去,此时这坨粪便已是面目全非。我想,下次一定要拴好狗链再带它出来。
另一件让我很担心的事是我的狗从来没和猫打过架,我的意思是说,如果有一天它真的和猫打架了,估计也是它输。我曾试图教它如何与一只猫打架,但是它不听我的,算了,就让它自生自灭吧。
我的额头上有一道疤,这还是拜我的狗所赐。别人都以为是被它抓伤的,其实事情是这样的:在我11岁那年,有一天我和它在家里玩儿,因为我拿了它的玩具,它几乎要疯了。它把我扑倒在地,然后去夺它的玩具,在它把玩具重新占为己有之后,就一溜烟地跑没影儿了。你知道,我有时会有点儿疯狂,所以我没有放弃,我边喊边追它,当我跟着它跑进我的房间后,我被地上的东西绊倒了,我的妈妈听到“砰”一声巨响后奔向了我的房间,看见我躺在地板上,她赶紧带我去医院处理伤口。医生说如果我撞上的那扇门是铁做的,就不会如此幸运地站在这儿和他说话了。
我原谅了我的狗,因为这也不是它的错,而是那扇该死的门的错。再来说说我的狗吧,我们俩都喜欢吃,一顿都不能落下。有一次我尝了它的狗粮,闻起来很香,但当我真的吃下去,那味道简直太恐怖了。可笑的是,每当我吃饭时,我的狗就会把两只前爪搭在我的腿上,看着我吃,我觉得它很可怜,于是我就让它闻了闻,然后继续吃我的。我觉得我对它已经很不错了。
说实话,我花了一整晚的时间来写这个关于我的狗的故事。
