Grammar in this story

1 concepts

The neighbors in the alley all dry clothes on the rooftop.

The orange cat usually naps on the rooftop too.

Today, however, it sits at the stairway on the first floor.

Xiaoqing says, “It must know it will rain this afternoon.”

Everyone quickly collects clothes on their balconies and blankets on the rooftop.

In the afternoon, the sun is still strong.

The orange cat keeps watching the market opposite from the stairway.

When the fish shop opens, it runs over immediately.

Only then does everyone understand it was forecasting lunch, not the weather.
