way. Say we stayed in the woods, throwing rocks, shooting frogs, picking blackberries, digging in what we were briefly persuaded was an Indian burial mound. Often we got lost and had to climb a tree to find out where we were. If you read a story in which someone does that successfully, be skeptical。 the topmost branches are usually too skinny to hold weight, and we could never climb high enough to see anything except other trees. There were four or five trees that we visited regularlytall beeches easy to climb and fortable to sit in. It was in a tree, too, that our days of fooling around in the woods came to an end. By then some of us has reached seventh grade and had begun the rough ride of adolescence (青春期). In March, the month when we usually took to the woods again after winter, two friends and I set out to go exploring. We climbed a tree, and all of a sudden it occurred to all three of us at the same time that we really were rather big to be up in a tree. Soon there would be the spring dances on Friday evenings in the high school cafeteria.(1)The author and his friends were often out in the woods to .

The man, Bob, was alone when he left his Michigan farmhouse on New Year39。s Eve to collect firewood. Expecting a journey of only several meters, Bob was wearing just long johns (襯褲), a shirt and slippers when he went outside, although the temperature was around 4℃. After the accident, he was unable to move in the snow. Fortunately, Kelsey came to his assistance. I was shouting for help, but my nearest neighbor is about 400 meters away, and it was 10:30 pm, Bob explained. But my Kelsey came.

She licked his face and hands to keep him awake. Kelsey kept barking but never left my side, Bob recalled. She kept me warm. I knew I couldn39。t give up and that it was my choice to stay alive. Bob spent 20 hours in the freezing cold. When he finally lost consciousness, his dog kept barking. Finally, hearing the barking, Bob39。s neighbor discovered him at 6:30 pm on New Year39。s Day and called the emergency services at once. When Bob arrived in hospital, his body temperature was below 21℃. However, doctors were surprised to find that he didn39。t have any frostbite (凍瘡). They believed it was because of Kelsey39。s determination to keep him warm, Dr. Chaim Colen, the doctor who treated Bob, said, Animals can help and his dog really saved him...
