Pets and dogs
寵物和狗When I was in the fifth grade, I moved to the country.
當我在五年級的時候,我搬到了鄉下。We had pigs, chickens, rabbits, fish, turtles, cats, dogs and a horse.
我們有豬、雞、兔、魚、龜、貓、狗和馬。
I would run everywhere with the dogs.
我帶着狗到處跑。I can say what dogs are called---men's best friends.
我能說狗被稱爲——-人類最好的朋友。They are loyal.
它們非常忠誠。They always seem happy to see you. be fond and listen to you.
它們似乎總是很高興見到你,喜歡聽你說話。I really love my dog.

當我搬去城市,動物們就被丟在了後面。Stanley said that they are having a pet around at home,
斯坦利稱他們在家裏擁有一隻寵物,that's a lot to get rid of stress. I totally agree.
這可以擺脫很多壓力。我完全同意這一觀點。Before I came to career, I was not really a friend of animals coming into the house.
在我的職業生涯前,我並沒有把房間中的動物們當成真正的朋友。But after coming to career, and seeing how much joy as small animal can bring to someone, I don't have any problem with pets living with people.
但是一旦踏入職業生涯,看着小動物能帶給某人的歡樂,我對於寵物與人一起生活就沒有任何問題。As long as they are housebroken and follow the rules.
儘管它們會把房間弄的一團糟,並且有時候不守規矩。My brother-in-law has a nice puppy that brings his family a lot of joy.
