A dog can’t speak any words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. Sometimes it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely, and you can find out its feelings. You can see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down. When a dog is afraid, it may run away. When you are angry with other people, you stare at(凝视) them. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.
Do you feel guilty (有罪的) when you have done something wrong? Dogs can feel guilty, too. Sometimes when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he has done something wrong.
Dogs need love and attention (关心). Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs snaps(撕咬)if they don’t get enough attention.
You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Take it for a walk. Don’t order（命令） it round too much. Try not to punish (惩罚) it. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do. Talk to a dog, and it will talk to you.

       When an earthquake hit a small town, many houses fell down. After the earthquake，all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.

       One Sunday, when I was reading a newspaper, a special picture touches(触动)me. It suggested everyone should give something helpful to the people in the earthquake. I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves. I said to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Brett, and three-year-old Meghan. "We have so much, and these poor people now have nothing. We'll share what we have with them.”

       I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this, I encouraged the boys to choose their toys and give away some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched quietly when the boys took out their old toys and games and put them together. Then she walked away. A few minutes later she came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll. She put the doll on top of the other toys. "Oh, dear,” I said. “You don't have to give Lucy. You love her so much.” Meghan said, “Lucy makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe she'll make another little girl happy, too.”

       I looked at Meghan for a long moment. She taught me a lesson. It's easy to give something that we don't  want any more，but harder to give what we cherish(珍爱), isn’t it?
