【題目】When I was a baby, I entertained you and made you laugh. Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.

My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.

Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.

Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.

I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.

Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen (圍欄), I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.

My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.

Empathy

Last year，researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy，the ability to understand other people，among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time，the researchers said. 【1】 .

Jennifer Freed，a codirector of a teen program，has another explanation.Turn on the TV，and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting，competing，and generally treating one another with no respect. 【2】 .

There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature. Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human — and having empathy is decisive to those relationships. Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high selfrespect. 【3】 .Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact，F(xiàn)reed says，many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. 【4】 “Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional （情感的） intelligence，you won't be as successful in work or in your love life，” she says.

What's the best way to up your EQ （情商）? For starters，let down your guard and really listen to others. 【5】 .

To really develop empathy，you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital，join a club or a team that has a diverse membership，have a “sharing circle” with your family，or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A. Today，people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.

B. “One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking，” Freed says.

C. Humans learn by example and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.

D. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else — both what they think and how they feel.

E. Good social skills, including empathy, are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.

F. Besides，empathy can be a cure for loneliness，sadness，anxiety，and fear.

G. Everyone is different，and levels of empathy differ from person to person.

Trampolining

What’s more fun than standing still? Jumping up and down on a springy piece of fabric (織物)! This activity is known as trampolining and it’s sweeping the nation.

The idea of trampolining is ancient. Eskimos have been throwing each other in the air for thousands of years. Firemen began using a life net to catch people jumping from buildings in 1887. 【1】

A gymnast named George Nissan and his coach Larry Griswold made the first modern trampoline in 1936. They got the idea by watching swimming artists bouncing off of a tight net at the circus. They named their equipment after the Spanish word trampolín, which means diving board.

【2】 In 1942 they began making trampolines to sell to the public.

【3】 Experts find that more than 100,000 people hurt themselves while using one each year. Clubs and gyms use large safety nets or other equipment to make it safer. Most trampoline injuries happen at home. Since trampolines are more affordable than ever, injuries are even more common.

These injuries happen for many reasons. People may bounce too high and land off of the trampoline or onto the springs. 【4】 Perhaps the worst injuries happen when untrained people try to do flips(快速翻轉(zhuǎn)). Landing on your neck or head can cause injuries or even kill you.

But don’t let all that bad news keep you down. There are many things that you can do to practice safe trampolining. Trampolines have been around for a while now. They have brought a lot of joy to many people. They can be a good source of exercise and activity. 【5】 But they can also be deadly. It is important to follow some professional guidance. Be sure that you are practicing safety while having a good time. Happy bouncing!

A．They can help people improve their balance and moves.

B．Trampolines may be fun, but they can also be dangerous.

C．The men wanted to share their idea with the whole world.

D．Injuries also happen when many people are jumping at the same time.

E．You can surround your trampoline with a net so that people don’t fall off of it.

F．They found a winner when they performed a piece of spring across a steel frame.

G．And in the early 1900s, circus performers began bouncing off of netting to amuse audiences.
