There was once an old farmer with a horse．He used the horse to pull a plow(犁)so that he could plow his field．He used him to pull a cart(马车)．Sometimes he used him to ride to market．They were good friends．

One day the farmer found there was something wrong with his horse．He was very sick．The farmer called a vet and asked him to come and look at his sick horse．

“He’s a very good horse，”the farmer said to the vet，“I can’t do anything on the farm without him．Please make him better for me．He doesn’t want to stand up，and he doesn’t want to eat，either．Is he going to die?”

“I don’t know yet．”the vet said．“I’II tell you after I’ve examined him．”

The vet examined the horse， and then said，“You’re lucky．There is nothing seriously wrong with him．Give him one of these pills twice a day. He'll soon be better．”

He gave the farmer a box of large pills．

The farmer looked at them and said．“But my horse won’t eat．How Call l make him swallow(吞)the pills?”

The vet said，“Get a tube(管子)．Put a pill in the lube．Put on end of the tube in the horse’s mouth and the other end i11 your own．Then blow hard．The pill will shoot out of the tube and go down the horse’s throat．”

“OK，”the old farmer said happily．

A few days later the farmer went to see the vet．He looked really ill．

“You look sick．”the vet said．“What’s the trouble with you?”

“oh．my dear vet．My horse blew first!” the old farmer said sadly．
