A woman whose sports car was stolen with her dog in it put up notices all over the area that made it clear getting back her pet was more important than her car.
“Whoever did this can keep my car. Please let Benjerman come home,” the notice said.
It is not known whether the thief showed any pity, but almost 30 hours after the 1 pm theft Friday, Kimberly Atkins of Dover and Benjerman, a 12-year-old black retriever (猎犬), were reunited after police located them in Barrington.
“He’s hungry, he’s dirty, but he’s very happy to be home,” Atkins said.
The car was found at about 5 pm Saturday off Route 125 in a swampy (沼泽地) area frequented by off-the-road cars and dirt bikes. However, the police couldn’t control Benjerman, and they had to call Atkins to come and get him.
Atkins said the thief cared for Benjerman a little by providing him with some dry cat food. She believed Benjerman ended up drinking some muddy water in the area. She said they have been together for nearly 11 years after she took him back from a society shelter in Dallas, Texas.
Before Benjelman was found, Atkins and several friends put up notices all over the city and in Somersworth. They also contacted animal shelters,throughout southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
The notice stated there was a reward, and also that the dog needed medication. Any caller could remain anonymous (匿名的).
Atkins had parked the car outside a hardware store with the keys inside and gone in to rent a carpet cleaner. “It was l0 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Benjerman in broad daylight,” Atkins said. The car thief threw Atkins’ wallet and other personal items out of the car before escaping from the scene.

The scientists who heard the signals did not tell anybody else.They were rather afraid to tell in case they frightened people.The signals were coming from a very small body—no bigger,perhaps,than the earth.Was that why no light could be seen from it? Or were the signals coming from a planet that belonged to some other star?
There was no end to the questions.but the scientists kept the discussion secret.“Perhaps there are intelligent beings out there,”they thought,“little green men who are trying to send messages to other planets,or to us!” So the news was not given to the newspapers.Instead,the scientists studied the signals and searched for others like them.
Well, all that happened in 1967 and 1968.Since then scientists have learned more about those strange,regular radio signals.And they have told the story,of course.The signals do not come from a planet;they come from a new kind of star called “pulsar”.About a hundred other pulsars have now been found,and most of them are very like the first one.
Pulsars are strong radio stars.They are the smallest but the heaviest stars we know at present.A handful of pulsar would weigh a few thousand tons.Their light—if they give much light—is too small for us to see.But we can be sure of this:no little green men are living on them.
1. How was the first pulsar discovered?
A.Scientists heard a new kind of radio signal.
B.Scientists heard radio signals coming from an unknown star.
C.Scientists searched the sky and saw it.
D.Scientists heard radio signals sent by little green men from a small planet.
2.What made the scientists think that the signals might be a sign of intelligent life?
A.Because they were coming from a very small body.possibly a planet.
B.Because they couldn't see the body.
C.Because it seemed that they were controlled by a clock.
D.Because they couldn't understand the messages sent by the intelligent beings.
3.Why didn't they report the news?
A.Because they were afraid of frightening people.
B.Because scientists wanted to keep their discoveries secret.
C.Because the signals were heard only once.
D.Because they didn't know if the signals were from a pulsar.
4. When did they think it safe to report the news?
A.When everyone had forgotten the signals.
B.When the signals stopped.
C.When they were tired of studying the signals.
D.When other pulsars were discovered.
These radio signals were heard first in 1967.They were coming from a point in the sky where there were no known stars.They were coming very regularly too:once in just about a second.It was as if they were controlled by a clock.
