2、 a plane to the forest and killed a tiger, and the newspapers showed photographs of Loona Bimberton with a tiger-skin on. In a world supposed to be moved by hunger and by love, Mrs. Packletides movements were largely governed by dislike of Loona Bimberton.Circumstances proved favorable. Mrs. Packlet

4、hold animals.

The one great fear was that he should die of old age before the day of Mrs. Packletides shoot
5、.The great night arrived. A platform had been built in a tree, on which sat Mrs. Packletide and her paid panion, Miss Mebbin. A goat with a loud bleat (咩咩叫) was tied down at the correct distance.

9、; but anyway, she owned a dead tiger, and the villagers, anxious for their thousand rupees, gladly accepted the fiction that she had shot the tiger. And Miss Mebbin was a paid panion.

10、nd and America.
