My Timmy
I have some pets. However, my
favourite pet is Timmy. Timmy is a male tabby cat. He is very adorable with his
soft stripes fur. He has innocent round eyes and feeble sweet voice. He always
meows when I come home, he usually give me a kiss.
Timmy is a nice playmate. I’m
so happy to spend my time with him. Most of the time, he’s a good cat. It’s

The Story of the Smart Parrot
A man in Puerto Rico had a
wonderful parrot. There was no another parrot like it.
It was very, very smart. This
parrot would say any word-except one. He would not say the name of the town
where he was born. The name of the town was Catano.
The man tried to teach the
parrot to say Catano. But the bird would not say the word. At first the man was
very nice, but then he got angry. “You are a stupid bird! Why can’t you say the
word? Say CAtano, or I will kill you!” but the parrot would not say it. Then
the man got to so angry that the shouted over and over, “Say Catano, or I’ll
kill you!” but the bird wouldn’t talk.
One day after trying for many
hours to make the bird say Catano, the man got very angry. He picked up the
bird and threw him into the chicken house. “You are more stupid than the
chickens. Soon I will eat them, and I will eat you, too.”
In the chicken house there are
four old chickens. They were for Sunday’s dinner. The man put the parrot in the
chicken house and left.
The next day the man came back
to the chicken house. He opened the door and stopped. He was very surprised at
what he saw!
He saw three dead chickens on
the floor. The parrot was screaming at the fourth chicken, “Say Catano, or I’ll
kill you!
