That made her so angry that she started throwing baseballs into the air and hitting them as as she could.
One day Ada hit a ball through Mr. Patti’s window. She was about to run away when a bright yellow butterfly flew through the hole in the window. A blue butterfly . Then a lot of colourful butterflies flew out like a rainbow（彩虹）. Ada to open her arms and catch the butterflies.
It was too bad she didn’t she heard Mr. Patti shouting, “Hey! You there!” Ada almost jumped 12 feet. When she landed, Mr. Patti handed her a net and a box. He pointed to the butterflies. “One hundred butterflies. We need to get them all back. Go!”
