    "Oh, my son!" a lady cried. Her baby fell into the river. The water carried him away quickly. A man came and said, "Can you give me the clothes or shoes of your son?

    The lady gave him a pair of shoes. The man turned to his dog. He first pointed to the shoes, and then to where the child had sunk(下沉).

    The dog jumped into the river. Soon people saw him swim back with something in his mouth. When people pulled the child and the dog from the water, everyone was happy. The lady ran to her son. The child was alive! "Oh, sir. Thanks for saving my baby. I'd love to give you anything to buy the dog!"

    It seemed that the dog knew they were talking about him. He lay down beside his owner's feet and seemed to say, "Nothing shall part(分开)."
