When I smoked with my family, I would feel so 16 and good that nothing else in the world seemed so 17 . I thought that smoking weed (烟草) was okay since many of my family members and people at my school smoked. 18 ever happened to them. 19 I started smoking weed a lot more during lunch and after school. I never thought 20 of it. At that time I just wanted to smoke. Then I began to 21 in school. I would 22 classes, come home late and spend all my money. I would spend 23 8 to 18 dollars a day. I never thought 24 that marijuana (大麻) had a bad effect on those things. Maybe my coming to class high (神智恍惚) was the reason why I was failing or coming home late. As I continued to smoke marijuana, I began to notice that I would always have the strong desire to smoke and that I would get 25 cigarettes if I smoked those, but I don’t. 26 I have learned more about marijuana, I have 27 the amount of marijuana that I use. I don’t want marijuana to be the most important in my life. I’m not smoking every day, and not spending as much money. Since I have 28 on my habit, I am 29 more money. I’m ready to go back to school and do good, so that I can make myself 50 . Everyone is always saying how weed 31 your mind and how it solves problems. I think it only brings more 32 . Marijuana is not good for your body or your brain. I’m not trying to tell you not to smoke, I’m just letting you know that marijuana can be 33 to your health, and 34 it may cause some long term negative (负面的) effects. Help yourself now, before it is too late. I don’t want to lecture anyone, just 35 my experience with you.

Do dogs understand us?
Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think.
A border collie博德牧羊犬 named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩).
In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.
In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.
The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by the process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive.
Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种)known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months.
It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!
