Passage 4

Little Tom down the street calls our dog "The  keep dog". Zip is a sheep dog. But when Tom tries to say" Sheep"， it comes out "keep". And in a way Tom is right. Zip is always bringing things home for us to keep! I'll tell you about some of them.

Zip's first present was a shoe. It was made of green silk.

We didn't know how Zip found the shoe. But after a moment Mary， my big sister， told me the shoe had a strange smell. I nodded(点头)and held my nose. "What do you think it is?"

"It smells like something for cleaning. I think someone tried to clean a spot (污点) off the shoe. Then he put it at the door to dry."

"Along came Zip. And good-bye shoe!" I said. "We should take it back."

"We can't ".said my sister.

"Maybe little Tom is right，" Mary said. "Maybe Zip is a keep dog!"
