Is your family interested in buying a dog? A dog can be a good friend to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it can cause you a lot of trouble.
Family should sit down and discuss the problems before buying a dog. Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog, the parent are the ones who are really responsible
(有责任的)for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you don't know much about dogs, it's a good idea to go to the library for books about different kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a young dog. Dogs of different kinds change in popularity as the years go by. One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd(牧羊犬). This is because it provides protection. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children. If your house is not big, a toy dog may be a good choice(选择).

Women's fashions

Women's shoes have also gone through all sorts(类别)of changes in the last ninety-five years. For example, boots for women were very common at the beginning of the century. Then for years, they were not thought fashionable. Today they are back again in all colours, lengths(长度). and materials(布料).In fact today's women can wear all types of clothes in any occasion

(青少年). Today, many teenagers are overweight, and some of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love food with a lot of fat, oil, salt, and sugar. People often call this kind of food“junk food”.But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don't have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don't have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey
(调查)at one school, scientists found that over two-thirds of the students didn't follow a healthy diet(饮食). They didn't like vegetables, and many of them didn't like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.Parents today also worry about their children's diet. Some doctors give the following advice:
· Teenagers shouldn't eat too much junk food.
· Teenagers shouldn't eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血压)in the future.
· Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.
· Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(维生素)and have little fat.
· Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.
· Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.
