7．The city of Rome has passed a new law to prevent cruelty to animals．All goldfish bowls are no longer allowed and dog owners must walk their dogs．
This comes after a national law was passed to give prison sentences to people who desert （抛弃）cats or dogs．
"The civilization of a city can be measured by this，"said Monica Carina，the councilor behind the new law．
The newspaper reported that round bowls don't give enough oxygen for fish and may make them go blind．
"Rome has tried to protect fish more than anywhere else in the world．It stands out for recognizing that fish are interesting animals that deserve over respect and pity every bit as much as dogs and cats and other animals，"said Karin Robertson，director of the People for the Ethical treatment of Animals．
Last year a law was passed in Italy that gives people who desert pets big fines and prison sentences．Since then local governments have added their own animal protection rules．
The northern city of Turin passed a law in April to give pet owners fines of up to $598if they do not walk their dogs three times a day．
The new law in Rome also says that owners mustn't leave their dogs in hot cars or cut their dogs'tail to make them look lovelier．The law also gives legal recognition to the"cat ladies"who feed homeless cats．The cats live all over the city from ancient ruins to modern office car parks．

20．Like any good mother，when Karen found out that another baby was on the way，she did what she could to help her three-year-old son，Michael，prepare for a new sibling（兄弟姊妹）．They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl，and day after day，night after night，Michael sings to his sister in Mommy's stomach．
The pregnancy （怀孕） progresses normally for Karen．But problems appear during delivery （分娩）．Finally，Michael's little sister is born．But she is in serious condition．An ambulance rushes the infant to the intensive care unit at St．Mary's Hospital．
The little girl gets worse．The doctor tells the parents，"There is very little hope．Be prepared for the worst．"Karen and her husband have fixed up a special room in their home for the new baby-now they plan a funeral （葬礼）．
Michael，keeps begging his parents to let him see his sister，"I want to sing to her，"he says．But kids are never allowed in Intensive Care Unit（重症监护室）．However，Karen makes up her mind．She will take Michael whether they like it or not．"If he doesn't see his sister now，he may never see her alive．"She dresses him in an oversized coat and leads him into ICU．The head nurse recognizes him as a child and bellows，"Get that kid out of here now!"The mother，the usually mild-mannered lady glares steel-eyed into the head nurse's face，her lips a firm line．"He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!"Karen pulls Michael to his sister's bedside．He gazes at the tiny infant losing the battle to live．And he begins to sing．
"You are my sunshine，my only sunshine； you make me happy when skies are gray…"
Immediately the baby girl responds．The pulse rate（脉搏） becomes calm and steady．
"You never know，dear，how much I love you．Please don't take my sunshine away…"
The weak breathing becomes as smooth as a kitten's purr（咕噜声）．
Keep on singing，Michael．Tears conquer the face of the bossy head nurse as well as Karen．
Funeral plans are removed．The next day-the very next day-the little girl is well enough to go home!
