　　Dear Lucy,

　　In my opinion, animals like cats or dogs are good company for old and lonely people. But in the past dogs were good helpers for hunters, they watched the house, and so on. The cats who lived on the farms helped the farmers to kill rats and keep other small animals out of the farm. I agree with Mark about the danger of keeping animals in big cities and houses and giving them plastic bones and bad food, etc. I hope we can give them the old life back again so they can live in natural environment but also close to people.

Yours sincerely,

Hans Borjesson

　　Dear Lucy,

　　We are some pupils who don't like Mark's opinion about pets in the October issue of Modern English. We disagree with him because we think that children have a lot of fun with pets and they learn how to treat animals. Many old people usually live alone and they love to talk to pets, they depend on them.

　　And what would happen if you let the pets go free? Very soon there would be more cats and dogs in the world than people. Or the animals would die because they weren't able to manage on their own. Look at the alleycats nowadays! They weren't taken care of. Finally, we don't think that Mark has a pet himself or else he would have known better.

Yours sincerely,

Pupils from Broager Central Skole

It’s never easy to admit（承认）you are in the wrong. We all 1 to know the art of apology（道歉）. Think how often you’ve done wrong. Then count how many 2 you’ve expressed clearly you were 3 . You can’t go to bed with an easy mind if you do 4 about it.
A doctor friend, Mr Lieb, told me about a man who came to him with different kinds of signs: headaches, heart trouble and insomnia（失眠症）. 5 some careful exams, Mr Lieb found nothing wrong with him and said, “If you don’t tell me what’s 6 you, I can’t help you”.
The man admitted he was cheating（骗取） his brother of his inheritance（遗产）. Then and there the clever doctor 7 the man write to his brother and 8 his money. As soon as the letter was put into the post box, the man suddenly cried.“Thank you ,” he said to the doctor, “I think I’ve got well.”
An apology can not only save a broken relationship（关系）, but also make it 9 . If you can think of someone who should be 10 an apology from you, do something about in right now.
