　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　I went nose to nose with a mouse last week, and I'd rather not say who won.

　　I was cooking when my friend phoned me to help her catch a mouse she had found in the kitchen. The mouse was under the fridge when I arrived. The cat was standing guard, slowly swinging its tail. I tried to put a broom handle beneath the fridge to force it out, but there were too many wires. My friend pulled up a chair at the table and I pulled a chair beside the fridge, armed with a plastic box as my trap. It_was_a_good_plan,_but_as_is_usually_the case,_it_didn't go according_to_the_plan.

　　After a while, the mouse put its head out. I knelt down on the floor in front of the fridge and angled the box to create a no­escape trap. The mouse moved out farther and I put the box down immediately. Unfortunately, the only thing inside the box was the mouse's tail, still attached to the mouse, which was now struggling with its little legs in an attempt to take_to_its_heels. The cat just sat.

　　The mouse crawled (爬) up on the broom handle I'd used earlier, and we were now eyeball to eyeball. If I'd wanted to - and I didn't - I could have seized it with my teeth. I shouted I needed something else to get the mouse. My friend handed me another container. I lowered box two over the mouse's body, still on the broom handle, with its tail still in box one. Despite my two­box move, the mouse escaped and shot back under the fridge.

　　Shortly after I left, my friend found the mouse. It was bathed in the sunlight in her bedroom. The cat was sitting next to it, enjoying the rays as well. She said they were a cute couple. Learning from my mistakes, she got a box - and a lid - and said the mouse all but jumped in the box and helped her seal the lid. Just a small change brought about an unexpected result.
