When I was young, I spent my summer vacations on my grandparents' farm. The summer that I graduated from college, I __56__ my grandparents once again. When I arrived, I discovered that there was a family __57__ in progress.

我小的时候,经常去我祖父母的农场过暑假。我从大学毕业的那个暑假,我再一次去农场看望我的祖父母。我到那里就发现,一场家庭危机正在进行。

Grandpa’s dog and hunting partner, Rusty, had taken on a very bad__58__ in his old age. He had begun __59__ into the chicken coop(鸡笼)and eggs. In the eyes of the local famers, __60__ dogs started stealing eggs, there was no __61__ to cure them. They knew there was only one thing to be done __62__ such a dog—you had to shoot it and the sooner the __63__.

祖父打猎的伙伴是一条叫Rusty的狗,上了年纪以后,养成了一个坏习惯。他开始闯进鸡笼偷鸡蛋吃。在当地农夫的眼里,一旦狗开始偷鸡蛋吃,就没有任何办法让他们改掉这个毛病。他们知道对这样的狗唯一能做的事,就是你不得不一枪崩了它,而且是越快越好。

Rusty and Grandpa were old friends. Grandpa certainly didn't__64__ to shoot Rusty, but he knew it needed to be done. The “egg money” was Grandma’s private income, so you can imagine __65__ she felt about the problem.__66__ the inexperienced confidence of youth, I told Grandpa that I thought I could “cure” the egg-stealing dog. I wanted to at least have a __67__ to save Rusty’s life, and save Grandpa from the sadness of __68__ Rusty.

Rusty和祖父是老朋友了。祖父当然不想打死Rusty,但是他知道这件事需要这样处理才行。“卖鸡蛋的钱”是祖母的私人收入,所以你可以想象祖母对这个问题的感受。出于年轻人毫无经验的信心,我对祖父说,我能“治好”狗偷鸡蛋的毛病。我想至少有一次机会去拯救Rusty的生命,把祖父从失去Rusty的悲伤中拯救出来。

The next morning, I broke open six fresh eggs and put them in Rusty’s bowl __69__ at the door to the chicken coop. Rusty came __70__ and noticed the eggs. He quickly __71__ the eggs and happily walked off for his nap (打盹).The following morning I did __72__ thing. I put the eggs a few feet away from the chicken coop, toward the back door of the farmhouse __73__Grandma usually fed Rusty. The next day I again moved the bowl closer to the house,and added some dog food to the eggs. Every day I moved the bowl closer to the back door, mixing more dog food and __74__ eggs. By the time the bowl reached the door, it was all dog food and no eggs. Rusty had again become__75__ to looking for his food at the back door of the house, and never again went into the chicken coop.

第二天早上,我打碎了六个鸡蛋,然后把鸡蛋放到Rusty喂食的碗里,这碗靠门边,紧挨鸡笼放着。Rusty过来了,注意到碗里的鸡蛋。它很快就吃完了鸡蛋,然后高高兴兴地跑去打盹了。第二天早上,我依法炮制。我把鸡蛋放在距离鸡笼有几英尺的地方,朝着农舍的后门,平常祖母在这儿给Rusty喂食。第二天,我把给Rusty喂食的碗放在更靠近农舍的地方,在鸡蛋里面加了一些狗粮。每天我都把喂食的碗靠近农舍后门一点,在鸡蛋里面加入更多的狗粮,减少鸡蛋。等给

Rusty喂食的碗放在农舍的门口的时候,碗里全是狗粮,没有鸡蛋了。Rusty又开始习惯在农舍的后门那里找自己的食物了,再也不闯入鸡笼偷鸡蛋了。
