In America, when people say
“man's best friend”, they don't mean another person. Instead they are talking about a lovely animal--a dog! These words show the friendship between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people's life. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to become the
“eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf person. Scientists have found the pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too, because the animals are brought into hospitals for “visits”.Americans hold
“Be Kind to Animals Week” during the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don't live in America, you, too, can do this. How? First, think about how animals make your life richer. If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food. Also, be sure to keep your pet from those unwanted babies.If you don't have a pet, be kind to animals around you. For example, if you see a street dog, don't kick it or throw things at it. Instead, just leave it alone, or better yet, make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal, try to stop them. As people, we must protect animals that can't speak for themselves.

There are some easy things you can do to protect(保护) the environment and the earth. Choose ideas from the list or come up with a few of your own.
● Plant flowers, grass or trees.
●Whenever you visit a park or beach, take away what you bring there----keep rubbish in a bag until you can put it in a dustbin (垃圾箱).
●Turn off the lights, TV sets when you leave the room. This saves (节约)a lot of electricity.
●Turn off the tap (水笼头)when you brush your teeth. You can save some water by not letting it run. Also, use a glass cup instead of a paper cup because this saves paper.
●Keep the doors and windows closed in winter to keep warm air in.
●Give your old books and magazines to a library instead of throwing them away.
●Give your old clothes to poor children you know instead of throwing them away.
●Use both sides of paper.
●Stop pouring (倒)dirty water into the rivers or the lakes nearby (附近).
●Encourage all your friends to do the same things you do to help protect the earth.
You don’t have to wait until Earth Day to do these things. Make every day Earth Day.
If everyone makes a contribution (贡献)to protecting the environment, the world will become much more beautiful.
