Tom tries to say "sheep", it comes out "keep". And in a way Tom is right. Zip is always
bringing things home for us to keep! I"ll tell you about some of them. Zip"s first present
was a shoe. It was made of green silk. We didn"t know how Zip found the shoe. But after a

my nose. "What do you think it is?" "It smells like something for cleaning. I think someone
tried to clean a spot (污点) off the shoe. Then he put it at the door to dry." I said.
"We should take it back." "We can"t," said my sister. "I know we can"t," I said."We don"t
know where Zip found it." "Maybe little Tom is right," Mary said. "Maybe Zip is a keep
dog!"
