One day last November, when Delores, the owner, returned from a market, she found Hank didn't come in for his dinner. As it got 21, she began to look for him around the house. Then she heard the meow(猫叫声) of a cat, looked up and saw Hank in her neighbour's tree. He must have climbed up the tree while some dogs were running after him. He became too 22 to climb down.
Delores, now very worried, called the firefighters right away. But it was not easy, for they didn't have a ladder(梯子) tall enough to 23 the cat. She asked a tree company for help. Again they gave up for safety 24.
The poor owner could do 25 but sit under the tree and call Hank's name. A kind neighbour offered(提供) her some cat food, 26 it would make the hungry cat come down. Nearby dog owners took their pets for walks 27 letting them out in their yards so that Hank would not be afraid and climb even higher.
Delores tried all kinds of ways, but none of them 28. 29, Lydia, another neighbour, came up with a clever way of getting the cat down from the tree. Delores decided to give it a try at once. Together, they made a set of pulleys(滑轮) and sent a basket with some of Hank's favourite things up to him. To their excitement, Hank jumped into it.
Delores was really thankful. "Everyone tried their best to protect Hank from danger. I feel good living in such a friendly neighbourhood. It gave me 30 when Hank was in trouble," she said.
