Any dog’s love and loyalty can feel like a miracle. By that measure, Mason, a one-year-old terrier mix, may be the most miraculous dog on Earth. 任何狗狗的爱心和忠诚都如同奇迹一般打动人心。但这只名叫“梅森”的混血猎犬却是世界上最大的奇迹。 The long-legged pup in North Smithfield, Alabama, rode out a tornado in his family’s garage last spring. His family thought he would be safe there, but the tornado blasted through the garage door and Mason disappeared. 这只长腿狗狗住在阿拉巴马州的北史密斯，去年春天飓风来袭时，它的家人把它关在了车库里，原以为这样就能安全了。但飓风还是轰开了库门，梅森不见了。 Dozens of people perished that day from the twister. Mason’s family was grateful just to be alive, even if the storm had left their home uninhabitable. But they were heartbroken at the thought that their sweet, playful companion had died. They combed the neighborhood, hoping by chance to find him, but Mason didn’t turn up. 那场飓风夺走了很多人的生命。虽然房屋一篇狼藉，但梅森一家都活了下来，为此他们倍感幸运。可是，一想到他们可爱的狗狗就这么死了，他们又都心碎不已。他们在小区周围四处寻找，期待看到狗狗梅森的身影，但毫无音讯。 Until he did. 直到狗狗梅森出现。 Three weeks after the disaster, Mason’s family stopped by the house to collect some belongings. There Mason sat on the front porch, so ecstatic to see his family that his entire body was wagging. They were overjoyed. Where had Mason landed during the windstorm? What did he eat for those long weeks? How did he find his way back home? |
