如果你家的宠物狗突然变成了机器狗,你会有怎样的感受？
One day Andrew and his dog Rocky went for a walk. They walked and walked. After a little while, they walked past a big tree.
Poof! Rocky was a robot dog.
"Woof, woof," barked Rocky the robot dog.
"What is going on?" asked Andrew. "Who turned my dog into a robot dog?"
Andrew looked all around him. He looked up the street. He looked down the street. He looked behind the tree. He looked up into the tree. No one was there. He stopped and stood still.
"Hee, hee, hee," he heard. It came from the tree.
"Woof, woof," barked Rocky the robot dog at the tree.
Andrew looked at the tree. He could not see anything different about this tree. He could not think of what to do.
"Tree, are you a real tree?" asked Andrew. The tree did not say anything.
Rocky the robot dog came over and smelled the tree.
"Woof, woof," he barked at it again.
Andrew was mad. He did not like it that Rocky was a robot dog. Andrew walked over to the tree and tickled it.
"Stop that," said the tree. "Why did you tickle me?"
"I think you turned my dog into a robot dog," said Andrew.
"Maybe I did, and maybe I didn't," said the tree who was holding his branches in front of himself so Andrew could not tickle him again. "It is kind of funny to see a dog become a robot."
Andrew got really mad this time and went up to the tree. He pushed away the tree's branches and tickled him some more.
"Oh, stop, stop," said the tree. "I don't want to be tickled any more."
"I still think you turned Rocky into a robot dog," said Andrew who was about to tickle the tree again.
"Okay, okay," said the tree. "I turned your dog into a robot dog. Just don't tickle me any more."
"Well, I don't think it is funny," said Andrew. "Now turn Rocky the robot dog back into Rocky the real dog."
"Okay," said the tree.
Poof! Rocky was Rocky the real dog again.
"Now don't do that any more," said Andrew. "Someone might get mad and tickle you again. You would not like that."
"Okay, I won't turn dogs into robot dogs any more," said the tree.
Andrew and Rocky walked home. The tree never turned any more dogs into robots, but every now and then, Andrew would see a robot butterfly go flying past his home.

如果你的宠物狗突然变成了机器狗，你会有怎样的感受？
一天，安德鲁和他的狗洛奇去散步。他们走啊走。过了一会儿，他们走过一棵大树。
噗！洛奇变成了一只机器狗。
“汪，汪，”机器狗洛奇叫着。
“这是怎么回事？”安德鲁问道。“谁把我的狗变成机器狗了？”
安德鲁环顾四周。他朝街道的上方望去。他朝街道的下方望去。他朝树后望去。他朝树的上方望去。那里没有人。他停下来，一动不动地站着。
“嘻嘻嘻，”他听到了声音。声音来自树那里。
“汪，汪，”机器狗洛奇朝着树叫着。
安德鲁看着树。他没发现这棵树有什么不同。他不知道该怎么办。
“树，你是一棵真树吗？”安德鲁问道。树什么也没说。
机器狗洛奇走过来，闻了闻树。
“汪，汪，”它又朝着树叫了起来。
安德鲁很生气。他不喜欢洛奇变成机器狗。安德鲁走到树旁，挠树的痒痒。
“别那样做，”树说道。“你为什么挠我痒痒？”
“我觉得是你把我的狗变成机器狗的，”安德鲁说。
“也许我做了，也许我没做，”树说着，把树枝挡在自己面前，这样安德鲁就不能再挠它痒痒了。“看到一只狗变成机器狗有点有趣。”
这一次安德鲁真的很生气，他走到树跟前。他拨开树的树枝，又挠了它更多下。
“哦，别挠了，别挠了，”树说道。“我不想再被挠痒痒了。”
“我还是觉得是你把洛奇变成机器狗的，”安德鲁说着，正要再挠树痒痒。
“好吧，好吧，”树说。“我把你的狗变成机器狗了。别再挠我痒痒了。”
“嗯，我觉得这不好笑，”安德鲁说。“现在把机器狗洛奇变回真正的狗洛奇。”
“好的，”树说。
噗！洛奇又变回真正的狗洛奇了。
“现在别再那样做了，”安德鲁说。“有人可能会生气，然后再挠你痒痒。你不会喜欢那样的。”
“好的，我不会再把狗变成机器狗了，”树说。
安德鲁和洛奇走回家。树再也没有把任何狗变成机器狗，但时不时地，安德鲁会看到一只机器蝴蝶从他家旁边飞过。
