He would sit for hours in his room, or go off on long walks all on his own. He seemed to be all alone in his own world, so far away. Try as I did, I could not reach him. Then one day, I was in the kitchen here, when I saw Bertie hurrying down the hill, waving his stick and shouting for me. “I’ve got an idea,” he cried, as he came in. “I finally thought of it.” He showed me the end of his stick. It was white. “See this, Millie? It was white chalk (白垩)! “So?” I said. “You know the famous White Horse on the hill at Uffington, the one they carved out (雕刻) of the chalk a thousand years ago? It seems that the horse never dies. Well, that’s what we’re going to do, so he will never be forgotten! We’ll carve him out on the hill—he’ll be there forever.” “It’ll take a long time, won’t it?” I said. “We’ve got plenty, haven’t we?” he replied, with the same smile he had when he was a ten-year-old boy. It took us twenty years to do it. Every spare moment we had, we were on the hill, digging with shovels and using buckets to carry away the dirt. It was hard, back-breaking work, but it was a labour of love. We made the paws, tail, body, and mane until he was perfect in every detail. It was just after we’d finished that the butterflies first came. In summer, when the sun comes out after the rain, these butterflies would drink on the chalk face. Then the “White Lion” becomes a butterfly lion, and it comes back to life again. So now you know how Bertie’s white lion became our special butterfly lion. (Adapted from The Butterfly Lion) ( )1.
