Best Friend Saves Man from Icy Lake Narrator: One snowy winter day, a man and his dog Ruby hiked to a lake. The weather was so cold that the lake water was frozen! They walked on the ice. 一個下雪的日子，一位男子跟他的狗狗Ruby爬山去了一個湖。天氣冷到湖面都結冰了，他們直接走在湖面上。 But then the ice broke! The man fell into the icy water! He couldn't get out! Man: Help! Hello? Help! Please, someone help! Narrator: Ruby stayed by him. Someone called the police. 但是湖面的冰突然碎裂，男子掉進水裡出不來。Ruby待在他身邊，目擊者趕緊報警。 The police officer was worried. The ice might break more! So he tried to throw a rope to the man … Police: I'm going to try to send this out to you, OK? Narrator: But the man was too far! 警察擔心湖面的冰會有更多裂痕，於是把繩子扔給男子，但距離實在太遠了。 The officer called the man's dog … Police: Ruby! Ruby, come here! Come here, Ruby … That's it. Narrator: Ruby ran to the officer. He gave her one end of the rope. The officer told the man to call Ruby … Police: Call her! Call her! Narrator: The man called Ruby … Man: Ruby! Good girl, come here! Narrator: She ran back to the man with the rope … Man: Ruby! That's it! Yes, well done! Good girl. Narrator: Then the officer pulled the rope. He got the man out of the icy water! 警察叫Ruby過來，把繩子的一頭交給狗狗。接著主人就叫Ruby回來，他抓住Ruby帶過來的繩子，然後警察從另一邊拉，終於把人救了出來。 The man went to the hospital. He was okay! Ruby saved the man.
