When I was a child, I was a tomboy(假小子). I had a cowboy hat and cowboy boots. My brothers were two and four years older than I. We often played games together.

　　Once, my brothers and I fell in love with playing a game called ＂stealing horses＂. Then my parents decided to buy my brothers guns. These were not ＂real＂ guns. Because I was a girl, I didn’t get a gun. They shot and shot at everything with their new guns. I tried to ＂fight＂ them with my bow and arrows (弓和箭). But I was still in the poor position without a gun.

　　One day while I was hiding behind a wall, looking out toward the fields, I felt a terrible blow to my right eye. I looked up just in time to see my brother lower his gun. Both brothers rushed to my side. My eye felt great pain and I covered it with my hand. ＂If you tell that to Mummy,＂ they said, ＂We will get a whipping(鞭打) from Daddy. You don’t want that to happen, do you?＂ I did not. ＂Here is a piece of wire(電線),＂ said the older brother, picking it up from the floor, ＂Say you stepped on one end of it and the other flew up and hit you.＂ ＂Yes,＂ I said. To be honest, I didn’t want them to be punished. So I did as my brothers told me to do.

　　A week after the ＂accident＂ my parents took me to see a doctor. Finally I knew my brothers were worried about my eye, so they told our parents what had happened and asked them to take me to see a doctor.
