This farmhouse had been 2 too long．It needed a family．Zigfried's 3 made a noise．He realized that he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday．He jumped from the windowsill(窗沿), grabbed a 4 from his home, and went next door to Farmer Mike's．
Farmer Mike's house had been a great place for the little mouse 5 the farmer married a wife who had a cat．Zigfried 6 when he thought of it．He looked around cautiously as he 7 into the room where grain was stored and was quite 8 as he filled his bag with wheat．He was turning to leave when suddenly he 9 a hot breath about his ear．His heart beat 10 , and without thinking he started to run and luckily 11 the cat's paws(爪子)．
The next afternoon Zigfried heard some good news：a 12 family would be moving into the farmhouse soon．Zigfried's granny would arrive on Christmas Eve to 13 with him．He hoped that the family would come before his granny came．Before long, a car came 14 the road leading to the house, with butter sandwiches, cheese and chocolate．
