In America, when people say “man's best friend”, they don't mean another person. Instead, they
are talking about a lovely animal—a dog! These words show the friendship(友谊) between people
and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people's lives. Some people think of their pets as
their children. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to be the “eyes” for a blind person (盲人) or “ears”
for a deaf(耳聋) person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people
happier, too. Because of that, they bring animals into hospitals for “visits”.
Americans hold “Be Kind to Animals Week” in the first week of May. Pet shows are held
during the week. Even if you don't live in America, you, too, can do this. How? First think about
how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food.
If you don't have a pet, be kind to animals around you. For example, if you see a street dog, just
leave it alone, or make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to animals, try to speak up.
As people, we must protect(保护) animals who can't speak for themselves.
25. “Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!” is used to prove _________ .
A. pets have the right(权利) to inherit(继承) money

27. During the “Be Kind to Animals Week”, the people in America __________.
A. hold pet shows B. play with the pets the whole week
C. cook delicious food for pets D. make friends with other people's pets
28. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A lot of people are interested in dogs.
B. Dogs can help people do many things.
C. Pets are lovely and need care and protection(保护).
D. We have done a lot of things for pets.

People in Australia love koalas and take care of them．They have set up places for them to live

Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a
habit of walking on the beach before he began his work.One day he was walking along the shore. As
he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the
thought that someone would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.As he got
closer, he saw that it was a young man and the young man wasn’t dancing, but instead he was
reaching down to the shore, picking up something and very gently throwing it into the ocean.As he
got closer he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?” The young man paused, looked up
and replied, “Throwing starfish in the ocean.” “I guess I should have asked, why are you throwing
starfish in the ocean?”“The sun is up and the tide is going out. And if I don’t throw them in, they’ll
die.”“But, young man, don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along
it. You can’t possibly make a difference!”The young man listened politely. Then he bent down,
picked another starfish, and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves and said, “It made a
difference for that one.”There is something very special in each and every one of us. We have all
been gifted with the ability to make a difference. And if we can know that gift, we will gain through
the strength of our visions the power to shape the future.We must each find our starfish. And if we throw our starfish wisely and well, the world will be better.

C. the young man had the ability to make a difference
D. it is necessary for us to save starfish on the beach
