问题 How Did Newtown Become a Very Clean Place?
Today Newtown is a very clean place. Many years ago, however (然面,不管怎样), there are millions of rats in Newtown. They attacked the cats and dogs. Sometimes a great number of them knocked down a man or a woman walking home at night. The rats were very large and they harmed many people.
The government (政府, 管理) ordered everybody to kill rats. Most were lazy (懒惰的), so they did not kill many. Then the government promised to pay some money for each dead rat. That made people very happy. They killed thousands of rats every day. A government officer put all the dead rats in a big pile. Sometimes a man brought hundreds in one day.
After two weeks there were not many rats in the city, but people still brought many rats to the government officer. The government officer thought (认为,考虑) that people were stealing dead rats from the pile. He ordered his men to dig a deep hole and put the rats in it. Soon there were no more rats, and the government did not pay anymore money.
