A doctor entered the hospital hurriedly after being called in for an important surgery (外科手术). He found the boy’s father in the hall waiting worriedly.

On seeing him, the father cried out, “Why did you take all this time to come? Don’t you know that my son is in danger?”

The doctor smiled and said, “I’m sorry. I wasn’t in the hospital and I came as fast as I could after receiving the call, and now I wish you’d calm down so that I can do my work.”

“Calm down! What if your son was in this room right now? Would you calm down?” said the father angrily. The doctor smiled again and replied, “We will do our best and you should also pray (祈祷) for your son’s healthy life.”

The surgery took some hours. And then the doctor went out happily, “Thank goodness! Your son is saved!” And without waiting for the father’s reply, he carried on his way running by saying. “If you have any questions, ask the nurse.”

“Couldn’t he wait some minutes so that I can ask about my sons state (情况)?” shouted the father when seeing the nurse.

The nurse answered, tears coming down her face. “His son died yesterday in a road accident. He was at the burial when we called him for your son’s surgery. And now that he saved your son’s life, he left, running to finish his son’s burial.”

After hearing what the nurse said, the dad was in deep thought with a red face.

However, there is one thing that it needs but cannot tell you about: that is music. There are a few reasons why your pet should listen to music.

Many pet owners play some music for their pets, because this can help their pets to feel better when they are at work. Most people are out throughout the day, and leave their pets alone at home. To make their pets feel comfortable and safe, they try playing some music before they leave the house. This works on all pets and makes even the most relaxed pet more comfortable to be alone at home.

You might have to change the music to see what kind of music is best for your pet. If you want to calm your pet down, you will need to play soft music instead of(代替) hard rock or hip-hop music, which might make your pet excited.
