小毛人系列之《营救》To the Rescue 附原文

Dad goes to the basement. He has work to do. I am working, too. I am working with my tools. I am tired of working. I hear my dad walking up the basement stairs. He calls me. He needs my help. The door is stuck. I will help. I twist and turn the doorknob. I can&`&t open the door. I say, "I will get keys. Keys will open the door. They are hanging in the hall." I climb up and get them. There are many keys. I try them all. Oops! One breaks off. "Don&`&t worry, Dad," I say. "I will call 9-1-1. Stay there. I&`&ll be right back." I dial 9-1-1 on the telephone. A very nice 9-1-1 lady answers the phone. I say, "My dad is locked in the basement and can&`&t get out." The 9-1-1 lady asks me my telephone number. I tell her. She asks what my address is. I know my addess, too. I tell her. I tell Dad that help is on the way. Suddenly, I am hungry. I go to the kitchen. I make a snack to eat until help arrives. Soon I hear sirens. First the police car comes. Then the fire truck comes. I see Fireman Joe. "We have to get my dad out of the basement. Follow me," I tell everyone. I will show them where to go. Fireman Joe tells Dad to stand back. Fireman Joe takes a big ax. He breaks down the door. Hooray! Dad is safe! Everyone helps take the broken door outside. The policemen say goodbye. The firemen say goodbye. "Thank you and good-bye!" I say. Dad says I am a hero. I just called 9-1-1.
