Ⅰ.阅读理解

• 1．Luke has always been my closest and constant companion these past five years.In fact，he is very friendly to me especially when I take care of other furry friends in our shelter.
     There have been a lot of forest fires during the summer season.Not far from our shelter，a forest caught fire during this hot summer.Luke rushed towards the forest where flames send out a terrible heat.There's no longer any hope at the moment to wait for Luke to come back to the shelter.In fact，I was waiting for the firemen to announce me his death in the forest.Suddenly，a fireman burst into my office and informed me that my dog Luke succeeded in saving four cats which were trapped by the flames.Luke seized the kittens，one by one moving them to a safe place.
     I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to pick up the rescued kittens，but Luke was not there.Then we heard the sound of a dog came from the forest barking furiously.The firemen followed the tracks of the dog until they found him barking loudly by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground.
     That day，I was very proud of Luke for his two heroic actions.I paid a visit to the fireman accompanied with my adorable Luke.What a memorable scene when the fireman hugged Luke tightly to his chest! "One thousand thanks，Luke，for saving my life，" the fireman said.
     This true story of love shows us that pets are kind，loving，and caring.We should love and protect them.Don't belittle them.Little animals can make enormous things for humans.
