We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was fullof flowersinside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf. It stood outside a furniture (家具) shop.“Buy it,”she said at once.“We'll carry ithome on the roof- rack (车顶架). I've always wanted one like that. " What could Ido? Tenminutes lateiwas twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof-rack.It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too. As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Otherdrivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to letus through. Carrying furniture was a good idea. After a time my wife said, "There'sa longline of cars behind. Why don't they overtake （超车)?"Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers （警官）inside looked at us seriously when they went past. Butthen, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church (教堂). One of the offices came to me.

"Right, sir, " he said. "Do you need any more help now?"

I didn't quite understand. "Thanks, officer, " I said. "You've been very kind. I livejust down the road. "

He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. " Well,Well, " he said and laughed. "It's a bookshelf you've got there! We thought it was ...something else. " My wifebegan to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer"Yes, it's a bookshelfbut thanks again.

19.When you pat your pet dog, he wags (摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he lovesyou.And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every move-ment of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness ; if histail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight ; and if his tail is tucked (塞) behind his legs, itmeans he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, cats' tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs him-self up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, helashes out(甩动) his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats hadnot become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for theirfood. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were closeto each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance c,o~mmunication, theyused their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language toooften. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs'.A cat tries to appear big when it is __________ .
