17．The story of Juno and Lucas is one of the mos t touching stories about the amazing relationship between humans and their companion animals．
Juno is a Belgian Malinois（比利时马犬）．The dog was beautiful but was given up by its owners，as they did not want to take on the responsibility．
Lucas，a little boy，had a strange illness，a condition that stops the body's ability to process enzymes（酶）．As his life continues，he will lose the ability to speak and his physical and mental abilities will degrade till he is left in a vegetative（植物人的）state．The average life expectancy for the patients is 15 years．
Chester，the boy's father，wanted his child to enjoy his life on earth as much as possible and looked into getting a service dog for the child．However，Lucas wasn't a good candidate due to his deteriorating（恶化的）abilities，not to mention the $15，000 cost of the animal．
Not terrified by all of this，Chester looked into adopting a dog for his son．He found Juno on a website and drove two hours to meet her．Chester had worked with the breed（品种） in the police force and was familiar with how to train them．He put in patience and hard work，and trained Juno while allowing her to become accustomed to Lucas．Now，not only will Juno not leave Lucas'side，she is also helping with his illness．Chester said，"She has the ability to notice his neurological changes．Now she reminds us when Lucas is about to have a seizure（疾病发作） or if his oxygen levels drop really low．She has saved him several times．"
Companion animals are beautiful things and they establish a bond that can't be described without experiences．I know that I held my adopted dog a little closer after hearing this story．There are a lot of dogs out there that need good homes and that won't be as lucky as Juno．So，if you think you're prepared，you should consider giving one a nice home．

4．The Process of Ageing
At the age of twelve years，the human body is at its most vigorous．It has yet to reach its full size and strength，and its owner his or her full intelligence； but at this age the possibility of death is least．Earlier，we were infants and young children，and consequently more vulnerable （易受伤的）； later，we shall undergo a progressive loss of our vigour and resistance which，though vague at first，will finally become so steep that we can live no longer，however well we look after ourselves，and however well society，and our doctors，look after us．
This decline in vigour with the passing of time is called ageing．It is one of the most unpleasant discoveries which we all make that we must decline in this way，that if we escape wars，accidents and disease we shall eventually"die of old age"，and that this happens at a rate which differs little from person to person，so that there are heavy odds in favor of our dying between the ages of sixty-five and eighty．Some of us will die sooner，a few will live longer----on into a ninth or tenth decade．But the chances are against it，and there is a virtual limit on how long we can hope to remain alive，however lucky and physically strong we are．
Normal people tend to forget this process unless and until they are reminded of it．We are so familiar with the fact that man ages，that people have for years assumed that the process of losing vigour with time，of becoming more likely to die the older we get，was something self-evident，like the cooling of a hot kettle or the wearing-out of a pair of shoes．They have also assumed that all animals，and probably other organisms such as trees，or even the universe itself，must in the nature of things"wear out"．
Most animals we commonly observe do in fact age as we do，if given the chance to live long enough； and mechanical systems like a wound （上发条的） watch，or the sun，do in fact an out of energy in accordance with the second law of thermodynamics （热力学）．But these are not similar or equivalent to what happens when man ages．A run-down watch is still a watch and can be rewound．An old watch，by contrast，becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending．But a watch could never repair itself-it does not consist of living parts，only of metal，which wears away by friction （摩擦）．We could，at one time，repair ourselves-well enough，at least，to overcome all but the most instantly fatal illnesses and accidents．Between twelve and eighty years we gradually lose this power，an illness which at twelve would knock us over，at eighty can knock us out，and into our grave．If we could stay as vigorous as we are at twelve，it would take about 700 years for half of us to die，and another 700 for the survivors to be reduced by half again．

7．To many Singaporeans，Mr．Lee Kong Chian is a familiar name．Popularly known as the"Rubber and Pineapple King"，he was a person who had donated generously to the society by pouring his wealth into charity work．Knowing （33）what education means to a person，he devoted a lot of energy and money to （34）building（build） schools．He was particularly concerned with the less fortunate as he could relate himself to them．
