Jack was a small dog. But he was cleverer than big dogs. His master taught him to many tricks. Jack
learnt them more rapidly than a dog could do. But there was one thing Jack could not understand. All
dogs like to bury their food in the ground. Jack often buried a bone or a piece of bread. He never forgot
where he could find it. When he was hungry, he always knew where to look for food.
In the summer when weather got warmer Jack loved to gnaw a piece of ice. It made his mouth feel cooler.
He sat and waited when the iceman left a piece of ice for him. Sometimes the piece of ice was larger than
usual. When Jack could not gnaw any more he buried it. Later he dug in the place where he had left the
ice there was no ice there. He seemed greatly puzzled when he could not find the ice./
