We were doing the best to control the fire of the burning garage (车库). Outside, I heard the sounds of cats crying. I couldn’t stop—I would have to look for the cats after the fire was put out.
It took a long time to finally bring the big fire under control. No one inside was hurt. At that point I was free to find out where the cat noises were from. There was still a lot of smoke and heat coming from the building. I followed the meowing to the sidewalk in front of the garage. There, crying and huddled (挤作一团) together, were five frightened kittens (小猫). They must have been inside the building, as their fur was badly hurt.
I wanted to find the mother cat. It was clear that she had gone into the burning garage and carried out all her babies, one by one—unbelievable.
We finally found her. Her paws and face were blackened, and her fur was burned all over. You could even see her reddened skin under the burned fur. She could hardly move. I picked her up, and she relaxed in my arms as much as her pain would allow. I decided to save this brave little cat and her family.
The vet told me they would watch the kittens and their mother for the night, but they weren’t confident about the mother’s chances.
About a week later, I found out she was going to live. We named her Scarlet because of her reddened skin.
I was happy to see Scarlet get together with the kittens again. She touched each of them, nose to nose. She had been in danger for five times and it had paid off. All of her babies had survived.
As a fireman, I see heroic acts every day. But what Scarlet showed me that day was the kind of bravery that can only come from a mother’s love.

One night, I was sitting in my kitchen half listening as my 15-year-old brother Tommy fought with my 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn’t pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.
About 20minutes later, as I was walking upstairs I heard Kevin crying inside the ____. I knocked on the door and asked, “Hey Kev, do you want to talk?” No answer. I tried again, “Hey, why don’t you come out of there?” Again, no answer. So I took a stack of（一堆） cards and a pencil and wrote, “If you don’t want to ______, we can write notes to each other.”
An hour later I was _______ sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me.

It said, “______ in this family cares about me, I’m not clever. Tommy thinks I’m a fool and Dad wishes he had the other Kevin as a kid because he’s better at basketball. And you’re never around to even ___ me.”
Tears came to my eyes as I wrote back to him. It was ______what he had said about me. I wrote back, “You know Kev, I really do love you and I’m sorry I don’t always show it to you. I am here for you and you are _____ in this family.”
There was no answer for a while, but then I heard a tearing sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin, who had _____ cards wrote on a torn-up(撕毁的) paper cup, “Thanks.”
I wrote back “For what?” It returned to me with “loving me” written on it. Since then, I try my best to ____ half notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer _____ now, and sometimes when one of us notices that the other is upset we’ll smile and say “Write it on a paper cup.”

A bag is useful and the word “bag” is useful too. It gives us some interesting phrases(短语). One is “ to let the cat out of the bag.” It is the same as “to tell a secret”. There’s an old interesting story about it.
Long ago, when people sold things in big cloth bags, a woman asked a man for a pig. The man held up his cloth bag. There seemed to be a little pig in it. The woman asked to see it. When the man opened the cloth bag, a big black cat ran out. Not a pig! The man’s secret was out and everyone knew it.
Now when someone lets out a secret, he “ lets the cat out of the bag”. And that is the story where the interesting phrase came from.
