Even in the animal kingdom,the loss of a loved one is quite a sad thing,and this upset dog in the picture,near a village in Russia's Perm area,gives us a real model in our life.
His mate (配偶) was hit to die by a car while she was trying to cross the road over seven days ago,but now he's still standing guard (站岗) over her body,hoping she will wake up one day. People who passed by the dog said the dog dragged his mate from the road right after she was hit and hadn’t left her side since then. He kept trying to move her with his paws and keep her warm with his own body,and the local people knew the story of his loyalty (忠诚) just in a few days. When children and adults passed the dog and heard his heartbreaking (令人心碎的) cry,and saw him standing guard over her body they often broke into tears. “It's very sad. He won’t let anyone walk near to her and he keeps trying to warm her up with his own body”，a local farmer said.

Vegetarianism (素食主义) is increasing in the UK as more and more British people are deciding not to eat meat and animal products. According to the Vegetarian Society,2. 000 people are giving up meat and “ going veggie ” in Britain every week. In 1989 a survey showed that 3% of the UK’s population was vegetarian.

In numbers this means there are over 3 million vegetarians in the UK today and vegetarians (people who don't eat meat) ， and vegans ( people who don't eat or use any animal products) are becoming increasingly common in the UK culture.

The day was Thankful Thursday. It's a weekly tradition that my two little girls and I began years ago. We go out in the world and do charity work. Last Thursday,we were going to buy lunch for the panhandlers in the street.
I ordered 15 lunches from McDonald's and set out to deliver them.
We loved what we saw in the street： a surprised and happy person holding up their lunch bag.
Then we noticed a small,old woman,asking for change. We handed her our final lunch bag. As we got into the car she started to speak to us. “ No one has ever done anything like this for me before ,” she said with a smile. “Well,I'm glad that we were the first，” I replied. “So,when will you eat your lunch?” I asked.
She just looked at me with her huge,tired brown eyes and said, “Oh honey,I'm not going to eat this lunch. You see,I have a little girl of my own. I usually can't afford to buy her the food she enjoys. But tonight she will be so happy!”
I don't know if the kids noticed the tears in my eyes. I have questioned many times whether our acts of kindness were too small to really effect change.
