Hi 大家好呀！今天Lydia来分享《百万只猫》这篇文章的第一篇：无数只猫
Once upon a time there was a very old man and a very old woman.
They lived in a nice clean house which had flowers all around it, except where the door was.
But they couldn't be happy because they were so very lonely.
"If only we had a cat!" sighed the very old woman.
"A cat?" asked the very old man.
"Yes, a sweet little fluffy cat," said the very old woman.
"I will get you a cat, my dear," said the very old man.
And he set out over the hills to look for one.

He climbed over the sunny hills.
He trudged through the cool valleys.
He walked a long, long time and at last he came to a hill which was quite covered with cats.
Cats here, cats there,
Cats and kittens, everywhere,
Hundreds of cats,
Thousands of cats,
Millions and billions and trillions of cats.
"Oh," cried the old man joyfully, "Now I can choose the prettiest cat and take it home with me!"
So he chose one. It was white.
But just as he was about to leave, he saw another one all black and white and it seemed just as pretty as the first.
So he took this one also.
But then he saw a fuzzy gray kitten way over here which was every bit as pretty as the others so he took it too.

And now he saw one way down in a corner, which he thought too lovely to leave so he took this too.
And just then, over here, the very old man found a kitten, which was black and very beautiful.
"It would be a shame to leave that one," said the very old man. So he took it.
And now, over there, he saw a cat, which had brown and yellow stripes like a baby tiger.
"I simply must take it!" cried the very old man, and he did.
So it happened that every time the very old man looked up, he saw another cat which was so pretty he could not bear to leave it,
and before he knew it, he had chosen them all.
