My name is Katie and I'm 13 years old. I wanted to do sports with a dog at the age of nine, but I couldn't find a right dog. When I was 11, my parents gave me a dog. His name is Dusty. I found Dusty perfect for me: he is fast, strong and likes to make me happy. I knew that this was the pet dog I wanted.

    I began his early training (训练)in a park when he was about 6 months old. I used anything I could find to make him jump. I used lots of food to train Dusty to practice jumping happily again and again. These months, I'm training Dusty to sit. It is easier for me. Let me show you how to do it.

    To train your dog to sit, just give him a treat-a piece of dog food will work, say "sit," hold it up and move it back over his head. Most dogs will just sit so they can watch the food. When the dog sits, give him the treat and say "good sit."

    If dogs don't sit when you hold the treat over their heads, you can push（推）their heads down. Remember to treat them when the dog's hindquarters（臀部及后腿）touch the ground.

    If you want to know more about how to train a dog, please e-mail me at happykatie@sina. com.

Hi, my name is Amy. I am a Grade 7 student, and I would like to tell you something about my class and myself.
There are ten classes in Grade 7.In each class, there are about forty students. I think that my class, Class 4 is the best(最好的).That is because all the students in my class work very hard and the teachers are all very nice to the students. But I am not one of the best students in the class.
I love reading, and I am very good at Chinese and English. I don’t find Maths very interesting, so I am not good at it. I want to work hard at it. My teacher, classmates and my parents would like to help me with my Maths.
