Life is full of the unexpected. This is even true to a small pet dog. A dog called Romeo
has been pulled out from the rubble(瓦砾) of an earthquake, more than nine days after the
earthquake.
On August 24, 2016, a terrible earthquake happened in Italy. The earthquake made
millions of people lose their houses, killing at least 250 people and hurting more than 360
people.Romeo’s owners were sleeping on the second floor of their house when the earthquake
happened. They managed to get out. But Romeo, who was sleeping on the first floor, was
trapped inside. They tried their best to search for Romeo, but failed. After a few hours, they
had to leave the village for their own safety.
All hope of finding Romeo alive seemed to disappear until Friday evening. That night
the couple returned to their home with a group of firemen. Almost as soon as they came into
the village, Romeo heard their voices and began barking(吠叫).
The couple couldn’t believe their ears. The firemen began digging at once where the
barking was coming from and got to the dog. It was lucky that the dog was in pretty good
condition. He looked like he had just woken from a short sleep.
Appearing completely relaxed, the dog drank his first drop of water in more than 230
hours from a bottle held by one of the firemen.
As it became clear he didn’t get hurt, the fireman put him down. When Romeo’s owners
saw him, they couldn’t help crying. “We thought we had lost him forever!” said one of
Romeo’s owners. Then Romeo left happily with his owners who had given up hope of finding
him alive.
The discovery of Romeo also cheered those firemen. “We believe there must be many
more that are still alive. We’ll try our best to save them.”
