Question

Newtown is a good place to travel. There are a lot of sights now.

But many years ago there were millions of rats(老鼠）in Newtown. They even attacked cats and dogs. Sometimes many of them knocked down a man or a woman at night. The rats were very big and many people felt they were dangerous.

The city office asked everyone to kill the rats. Most people were lazy, so they did not kill many. Then the city office said they would pay some money for each dead rat. That made people very happy. They killed thousands of rats every day. A city official(官員) put all the dead rats together. Sometimes a man brought a hundred in a day.

After two weeks there were not many rats in the city, but people ,still brought many rats to the city office. The city official thought that people were stealing(偷) the dead rats. He asked his man to put all the dead rats in a hole. Soon there were no more rats, and the city office didn't pay any more money.
