In today's world of modern science and medicine, a more traditional treatment is once again becoming popular-animal friendship.

It is now well-known that people with problems such as heart disease or cancer live longer and get better more quickly if they have pets. Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals are increasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, entertainment and loving friendship.

Here is a case that shows the advantages of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned，had a parrot called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Net used to say, "Hi，John!" We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying "Hi，John!" when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied "Hi, Sally !" Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.

Another use of animal helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.

If you want to know more about animal helper programmes, you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a search under "animal therapy" on the Internet. You don't have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.

"Oh, how large he is!"

"Isn't he? And such wonderfully strong legs!"

"See his trunk(象鼻), too! Isn't it cute! And he is well stuffed(填充的)! This is really one of the best toys in the UK that ever came into our shop, Geraldine, don't you think so?"

"Yes, Angelina. I must call father to come and look at him. He will make a lovely present for some boy or girl - I mean this Stuffed Elephant will make a lovely present, not our father!" and Miss Angelina Mugg smiled at her sister across the big packing box of Christmas toys they were opening in their father's store.

"Oh, no! Of course we wouldn't want father to be given away as a toy!" laughed Geraldine. "But this Stuffed Elephant-oh, I just love him!"

Miss Geraldine Mugg caught up the rather large toy animal and hugged it tightly in her arms.

"Be careful" called her sister. "You may break him!"

"Oh, he's just a Stuffed Elephant!" laughed Geraldine. "I mean he hasn't any works inside him to wind up(结束).There's nothing but cotton inside him. But I am beginning to like him more than I cane for some of the toys that do wind up. I almost wish I were small again, so I could have this Elephant for myself!"

"He is nice," admitted(承认)Angelina.

"Well, I'm glad they like me," thought the Stuffed Elephant to himself, for just now he was not allowed to speak out loud or move around, as the Make Believe toys could do at certain times.

I couldn't understand teenage fashion, so I asked my 15-year-old niece Hanna to help me find out more about teenage fashion.

The Goths(哥特风)

The Goths are dressed from head to toe in black jeans, black fingernails and black make-up for both boys and girls. Hanna told me that the Goths think of themselves as "dark, romantic and mysterious". They like to listen to dark, depressing music in their bedrooms.

The "emos"(情绪摇滚风)

"Emos" teenagers can be recognized by their tight jeans and T-shirts, as well as their haircuts. Their hair usually has a long fringe(刘海), often covering one or both eyes. The name "emo" comes from "emotion hardcore(情绪硬核)", a type of underground rock music that developed from the mid-1980s hardcore punk(硬核朋克)

Ravers(锐舞派对风)

These teenagers were wearing very bright colours-greens, pinks, and yellows. These kids listen to electronic dance music and go to "raves"-parties where they dance all night.

Hanna pointed out members of other groups. The boys playing annoying music on their mobile phones were "hoodies". They are named after their hooded sweatshirts(连帽运动衫).The girl sitting at the front likes to wear alternative(另类的)clothes and listen to alternative music. Now I learned that "old" people like me(I'm 32 ) can't think it looks good. It's a language that young people speak and older people can't learn.

1.Which kind of music do the Goths like?

2.What does the writer think of the youth fashion

3.Do you like wearing alternative clothes? Why or why not?
