Animals are our friends. Sometimes they make trouble, but sometimes they can help us. And they hope to live a happy life, too. Here are two real stories from our readers.
The first story is from Ray. “My cat, Tiger, hates it when I use my iPad because it takes my attention away from him. One year, I had a fall at home and was on the floor for 16 hours. During this time, I was unable to move and couldn't get to the phone to call for help. Tiger stayed by my side until he disappeared under my bed. 'What's he up to ' I wondered. To my surprise, he started to push something towards me. It was my iPad, which I didn't realize had fallen off the bed and onto the floor. He probably didn't know what it was, but he knew that it made me happy. Thanks to Tiger, I was able to communicate with my friend, Becky, who then told my doctor.”
The second story is from Colin. “Years ago, my friend Julius saved a bird-a wild “Mom” cockatoo（凤头鹦鹉）from the side of the road and kept it as a pet in a big cage（笼子）. It lost one of her wings，so she was unable to return to the wild. Soon, two wild cockatoos came visiting and one "Dad” bird wanted to find his way into the cage. The 'Mom' cockatoo in the cage was soon expecting him. But as she couldn't fly, the 'Dad' cockatoo built a home in the tree, keeping off everyone who got close to "Mom' cockatoo. The 'Baby' cockatoo would spend his days flying off with his dad, leaving his mom behind. She would sit and wait until they returned home each afternoon. The family stayed together happily.”

书面表达
Nowadays, after-class activities are becoming more and more popular. In our school, there are various kinds of activities.
Playing football and reading stories are my favorites, so I often do them in my free time, I was weak and under too much pressure in the past, but now they help not only build my body and enrich my knowledge, but also free the heavy burden of study.
Here I have some suggestions. To students, you'd better choose the activities which interest you and suit you; to schools, you should organize more activities for students and leave students more time for activities by giving us less homework. If so, we will have a colorful school life and we will also get better grades.
