M: Hey, Lisa. I need some advice from you.
W: What’s going on, Jimmy?
M: My parents finally agree that I can keep a pet. But I don’t know if I should buy a cat or a dog. Can you help me
decide?
W: Of course, you ask the right person. I have two dogs, a cat and a rabbit. I think you can have a cat instead of a
dog.
M: Why do you say so?
W: Because dogs need a lot of time and care. Cats require less work, and they are quieter and cleaner than dogs.
M: I see. I will take your advice. Do you know any pet store?
W: Yes, there’s one on North Street.听下面第二段对话，回答第8-9两个问题。

W: Yes. Rabbits can eat four meals a day. They eat dry vegetables and sometimes grass.
M: Do they make any noise?
W: Not very often. Only when they get hurt or feel angry.

M: OK. Thank you so much, Amy.

some suggestions?
W: Well … What symptoms did you notice?
M: He has been vomiting and coughing, and he has no appetite.
W: Oh! My dog had the same symptoms last year. You’d better take him to the vet soon.
M: You are right. Do you know any pet hospital?
W: Yeah. There’s one near my house. Maybe you can take him to the vet after school. I can go with you.
M: That’s very kind of you. I’ll make an appointment soon.
W: I will meet you at the school gate at 5:30 p.m. after school, OK?

Keeping a pet is increasingly popular. Last month, a local school did a survey about the popularity of keeping

pet. Of these, 30% have a dog, 25% have a cat and 10% have other kinds of pet, such as birds, rabbits, fish and so
on. Among 35% of those students who don’t have a pet, 12% of them cannot keep one because their parents are
against it; 13% don’t have enough space, and the remaining 10% don’t like pets. In general, those who have pets

Hello. We are students of Animals World Club. Today we want to talk about elephants. Elephants are smart
animals. They can even play soccer or music. They can also draw very well. People say that “an elephant never
forgets”. Elephants can walk for a whole day and never get lost. They can also remember places with food and
water. This helps them to live. But elephants are in great danger now. People cut down many trees so elephants
are losing their homes. Today there are only about 3,000 elephants. We must save them and protect their homes.
Today is March 13th, Elephant Day. We can start from now on.

A dog’s story
My name is Robbie. I was born on a farm with my brothers and sisters. One day, a man and two little boys
came to the farm. They wanted to keep me. So they drove me to my new home in the city. The boys promised they
would look after me very carefully, and they did.
They fed me, played with me and walked me every day. Then one day, they got a computer. After that, the
boys played computer games all the time. They did not play with me or feed me any more.
Eventually the boys’ father took me to a pet centre. He told the staff that his boys loved their computer more
than me. The centre gave me lots of food and took good care of me. One day, a nice girl called Emma came to
visit.
She took me home. Emma feeds me and takes me for walks every day. I know I will live here happily for the rest
of my life.
