二、閱讀理解(本大題共5小題,每小題3分,共15分)
Simon was not a handsome dog. He had been our family’s first pet. Our girls wept when he passed away. My husband and I tried not to let them see our tears but as we climbed into bed that night without Simon, we cried.
I have had a few dogs, but Simon was the best. He trained himself. He never ate any shoes and never dug in the garden. However, one time I discovered a mess on the carpet. “Simon”, I asked, with strong voice, “what is this?” His expression was shameless.
Ten months after Simon died, I started looking for another dog. I searched every rescue site for a puppy. I was becoming more desperate but my husband wasn’t. When I floated the idea of a larger dog, he said he didn’t want an 85-pound animal in his bed.
I found a black female puppy and our girls fell in love with her. My husband was particularly happy. Yet my heart didn’t open to her as I assumed it would. As I set about training her, I accidentally praised her with “good baby”. I caller her Simon so many times. A friend said “Her name is Scout. You have to say her name.”
Perhaps my expectations were unrealistic. After all, Simon and I developed a groove over 13 years. Had I made a mistake by getting a puppy? Would I ever feel the same way about Scout as I did about Simon?
I looked forward to her getting bigger. Though I overfilled Scout’s food fish, she remained small. Her fur was nothing like Simon’s coat. But seriously, what difference did any of this make? I asked myself. Did I expect Scout to replace him?
I glanced over at her as she lay beside my desk. She was cute, but she had ruined two of her collars, a TV remote and a pair of shoes. Last week, she jumped up on a man’s legs, though I firmly shouted “OFF, Scout!”
I was ashamed of how often I had said to her, “Simon would never have done that.” Thankfully, she didn’t understand.
When we return from our walk this morning, I scooped her up into my arms. “You are half the dog Simon was,” I whispered in her ear as I gave her a kiss, trying my best to love her as much as I did to Simon.
