Night after night, a wolf walks around a group of sheep, looking for one of them to eat, but the shepherd (牧羊人) and his dogs always make him go away.
But one day, the wolf finds the skin (皮)of a sheep. He puts the skin carefully over him. Then he walks into the group of sheep.
The shepherd thinks that the wolf is one of his sheep, and makes the wolf eat the grass with the sheep, and even lets him sleep with the sheep.
For many days and nights, the wolf eats and sleeps very well. The wolf enjoys himself very much. But one day, the shepherd wants to sell one of his sheep at the market. He finds the biggest and fattest sheep and brings him into town. Can you guess who it is? It is the wolf!
Do you know how to train (训练)dogs? Some schools in the US are giving students a chance to learn how to do so. At Hutton High School in New York, there is a guide dog training program. It started two years ago. Students train dogs to help blind people. Many other schools have similar programs.
In this program, students first work as dog sitters (临时看狗的人). They get training and go to meetings to learn how to take care of dogs. After a while, they can get a dog of their own. Then, they start to train them in different places. They can keep the dogs for one year.
Lisa Harris, 15, joined the program about a year ago. She has her own guide dog. She spends a lot of time with the dog at school. She trains the dog to ignore (忽略)things while walking, like food and people. When she's in class, the dog sits or lies between her feet.
Johnny English is a funny spy (特工). He isn't very smart and often makes mistakes. After he retires (退休)as a spy, he teaches English at a primary school.
One day, a hacker (黑客)attacks (攻击)the UK. The hacker reveals (公布) the names of all of Britain's spies. Only English is left, since he is retired. He is asked to find the hacker.
English knows nothing about high—tech weapons (高科技武器). He makes a fool of himself quite often. To find the hacker, he has to work with his old friend, Bough. Soon, they find the hacker as well as a bigger plan behind him.
English and Bough show that two heads are not always better than one. Sometimes they do silly things. But they stop the hacker's plan in the end. Do you want to meet these two silly spies? You can see them in Johnny English (《憨豆特工3》). It opened in Chinese mainland theaters on November 23rd.
