Dog Laws Keep Us Safe
遛狗拴绳入法，这件事为什么重要？
Taking your dog for a walk can be fun to do. But it can also be a danger to others. People in Beijing and Shanghai are already asked to keep their dogs on a leash(绳子). There will be a similar law across the country. It’s listed in the newly amended(修订的) Animal Quarantine Law(《动物防疫法》). The law will come into effect(生效) on May 1.
The law mainly prevents rabies(狂犬病). The rabies is mainly carried by dogs. The law makes it clear that anyone who keeps dogs must regularly vaccinate(给…接种疫苗)them. Those who walk their dogs outdoors must keep their dogs on a leash to prevent them from hurting people or spreading disease. Or they will face a fine.
In the past, the dog owners decided whether to vaccinate the dog. This meant that if someone was bitten by a dog, they would have to go to a hospital and get treated and vaccinated immediately. Actually, it’s more meaningful to vaccinate dogs than humans.
Many other diseases can also spread between animals and humans. According to experts, 70 percent of animal diseases can be passed on to humans. And 75 percent of all new infectious(传染性的) human diseases come from animals, China Daily reported.

【推荐1】The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many benefits (优点，益处 ) to knowing more than one language.The first advantage is that you can communicate more directly with more people around the world. You do not need to depend on others to talk for you, so you’re independent. People who know only one language must need others to help communicate.
What’s more, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively (高效地). Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can make a big difference to a person’s understanding of another language. So, knowing more than one language widen your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer and more peaceful. Countries will then have more respect for each other and understand each other’s problems better.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are almost no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don’t try to learn another language. It is even worse when people forget their own mother language and become silenced.

【推荐2】In today’s world, many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most effect (影响) on the poor. But once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.
If money was everything, all millionaires (百万富翁) would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.
Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought? I’m afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and a long life are probably the most valuable things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”.
Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can’t be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped (崇拜), money can cause brothers to fight, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to love, no one to laugh with, no one to cry for.

【推荐3】Do you know mukbang? It is a South Korean word and is about the eating shows in front of the camera on the Internet. In the shows, mukbangers eat food and sometimes talk to their viewers.
Mukbang started in South Korea in around 2010 and has spread all over the world. Why did mukbang first appear in this country? According to Jeff Yang, an Asian-American culture expert, eating on one’s own can be hard in a country like South Korea because it has the culture of eating together. But eating alone is quite common in the country. Watching mukbang can be a way to havesomeone to eat with. It allows people to connect with others even though they are at home alone.
This is one of the reasons why many people around the world like watching mukbang. However, mukbang has its dark sides. The way mukbangers eat food in some shows isn’t healthy. This can encourage（鼓励）bad habits and bring serious health problems. To attract people’s attention, some mukbangers prepare a lot of food in front of the camera. But they throw away much food secretly during the show or throw up food after the show to make viewers believe they have eaten up everything. These mukbangers waste a lot of food.
Such shows have been criticized（批评）by many people. Food waste is a serious problem around the world, and stopping food waste has special meaning for our country. Thus, our countryhas done a lot of things to solve the problem and asked short-video platforms, such as TiTok and Kuaishou, to regulate（管理）their eating shows.

One afternoon, something on the Internet caught my eye: a tiny hedgehog (刺猬) held by a hand. The post read: “HELP! My hedgehog didn’t take care of her baby, and I cannot raise it because I have to go to school fulltime. Good home with experience needed as soon as possible!”
I had no experience with baby hedgehogs, but I had raised cats, dogs, and birds. It touched me that he was not taken good care of. And maybe I could love him and be the best mom for him.
I wrote the most heartfelt (诚挚的) email I could. That was how I found my Louie. True to my word, he was my baby. It seems that Louie didn’t know he was a hedgehog. He never curled (蜷缩) into a ball, and he liked my two cats, no fear. The cats, however, were afraid of him, as he often moved into the room, running after the cats and blocking my way.
He helped me realize my dream of hedgehog photography, a hobby that began during childhood with cats and dollhouses. I love showing off his photos.
Life has meaning because of the purpose we have. Louie needed a good home and mom, and in return, I got to be a good mother and be needed. Hedgehogs require great amounts of patience, trust, and knowledge—but the payoff (回报) is pretty great.
1. Where did the writer get Louie?| A．From a pet shop. | B．From an animal center |
| C．From a family friend. | D．From a hedgehog owner. |
| A．Scared. | B．Relaxed. | C．Lonely. | D．Bored. |
| A．It was easier than expected. | B．It gave her a sense of safety. |
| C．It made her lose her patience. | D．It was satisfying and meaningful. |
