"Where’s Daddy going with the axe（斧头）?"said Joan to her mother.
"Out to the hoghouse（猪圈）," replied Mrs. Arable. "Some pigs were born last night."
"I don’t know why he needs an axe," continued Joan. She was only eight.
"Well," said her mother, "one of the pigs is very small, thin and weak, and it will never grow up. So your father has to do away with it."
"Do away with it?" cried Joan. "Just because it’s smaller than the others?"
"Don’t cry, Joan!" Mrs Arable said. "The pig would probably die anyway." Joan pushed a chair out of the way and ran outdoors.
"Please don’t do it!" she said with eyes full of tears（眼泪）. "It’s not its mistake to be so weak." "Joan," Mr. Arable said gently, "you will have to learn to control yourself." "This is a matter of life and death, and you talk about controlling myself." cried Joan. Tears ran down her face and she took hold of the axe and tried to pull it out of her father’s hand.
"Joan," said Mr. Arable, "I know more about raising pigs than you do. A thin and weak pig makes trouble."
"But it’s not right," cried Joan. "If I had been very weak at birth, would you have killed me?" Mr. Arable smiled. "Certainly not," he said, looking down at his daughter with love. "But this is different. A little girl is one thing; a little weak pig is another. "
"I see no difference," replied Joan, still holding on to the axe. "This is the most terrible thing I have ever heard of." A strange look came over Mr. Arable’s face. He seemed almost ready to cry himself.
