That evening Lavender went to the bottom of the garden determined to catch a newt. They are swiftly-moving animals and not easy to get hold of. She lay on the bank for a lo原由网ng time waiting patiently until she spotted a whopper（特大的；硕大的）. Then, using her school hat as a net, she swooped(猛冲；猛扑) and caught it. 原由网She had lined her pencil-box with pond-weed(杂草) ready to receive the creature, but she discovered that it was not easy to get the newt out of the hat and into the pencil-box. It wriggled and squirmed(蠕动) like quicksilver and, apart from that, the box was only just long enough to take it. When she did get it in at last, she had to be careful not to trap（夹住） its tail in the lid（盖子） when she slid（滑动） it closed. A boy next door called Rupert Entwistle had told her that if you chopped offa newt's tail, the tail stayed alive and grew into another newt ten times bigger than the first one. It could be the size of an alligator. Lavender didn't quite believe that, but she was not prepared to risk it happening.
Eventually she managed to slide the lid of the pencil-box right homeand the newt was hers. Then, on second thoughts, she opened the lid just the tiniest fraction so that the creature could breathe.
The next day she carried her secret weapon to school in her satchel. She was tingling withexcitement. She was longing totell Matilda about her plan of battle. In fact, she wanted to tell the whole class. But she finally decided to tell nobody. It was better that way because then no one, even when put under the most severe torture, would be able to name her as the culprit.
Lunchtime came. Today it was sausages and baked beans, Lavender's favourite, but she couldn't eat it.
"Are you feeling all right, Lavender?" Miss Honey asked from the head of the table.
"I had such a huge breakfast", Lavender said, "I really couldn't eat a thing."
