       A store owner was putting a sign above his door that read “Puppies For Sale”. Signs like that have a way of     21     small children, and    22     enough, a little boy appeared under the store owner’s sign. “   23     are you going to sell the puppies for?” he asked.

       The store owner answered, “You really don’t want to buy this little dog. He is   37   going to be able to jump and play with you like the other puppies.”

       To his surprise, the little boy reached    38    and rolled up his pant leg to show a badly twisted, crippled（残疾的）left leg    39     by a big metal brace（支架）.
