题目内容
11.I'm not an animal lover.Cats make me sneeze.When our daughter left home it never occurred to me to fill the empty home with a dog.But with Turkey now considering a law that would gather Istanbul's about 150,000 homeless cats and dogs,I may well change my mind.It wouldn't be possible to live in a neighborhood here and be against all animals.Hairy dogs walk down our main street,and my garden is home to lots of wild cats.The animals are wild in the sense that they don't belong to any single person.
These animals lead a good life.Self-appointed protectors put out food and water all year around.The doctor's wife is forever nursing a sick cat."live and let live"is the motto.The dogs bark at night defending their area,and if we tried to get rid of them,we'd only get a pack of unfamiliar ones in their place.
Senpolat,one of my neighbors,is the head of the Animal Rights Federation.He angrily complains about the illegal pet trade,the badly---run zoos and the failure to criminalize animal cruelty.
This summer the government suggested taking homeless animals off the streets and put them in"wild life parks"."Death camps"is how Senpolat described those,imagining a real dog-eat-dog world.The scheme reminds people of the great animal disaster of 1910,when a new,modern government forced thousands of dogs to live at a small island off Istanbul.The wind would carry the frightening howls(嚎叫) of the starving animals back to the city.
Other voices rose last Sunday when thousands of people in cities across the country walked through the streets to protest against the new law.First thing Monday morning,the government cancelled the law.Civil protest is not unusual in Turkey,but it's unusual for the government to listen.
