Today Newtown is a very clean place. But many years ago, there were millions of rats(老鼠)in Newtown. They attacked(袭击) the cats and dogs. Sometimes a lot of them knocked down a man or woman walking home at night. The rats were very big in size and they hurt many people.
The government (政府) ordered (命令) everybody to kill rats. Most people were lazy, so they did not kill many. Then the government decided to pay some money for each dead rat.
