五． 阅读理解
My friends and I bought our favorite candies from Mrs. Pratchett’s Store every day on our way to school. My favorites were Sherbet Suckers and Liquorice Bootlaces.
Thwaites told me I should never eat Liquorice Bootlaces. Thwaites’s father was a doctor. He said that it was made from rats’ (耗子的) blood. The father told his young son a lot about Liquorice Bootlaces after he found that his son ate it. “Every ratcatcher in the country,” said the father, “takes his rats to the Liquorice Bootlace Factory and they pay him for each rat. Many ratcatchers have become rich by selling rats to the factory.”
“Don’t ever eat them,” said the father. “If you eat, you’ll get ratitis.”
“What is ratitis, Daddy?” asked young Thwaites.
“It’s a very terrible disease (疾病),” said the father.
“I see. But what will happen to me if I catch it?” asked young Thwaites.
“Your teeth will fall out one by one,” answered the father. “And a short tail (尾巴) will grow out of your back. There is no medicine for ratitis. I know. I am a doctor.”
We all enjoyed Thwaites’s story. We asked him to tell us this wonderful story many times on our walks to and from school. But any of us didn’t stop buying Liquorice Bootlaces except (除……之外) Thwaites.
