25、
Question A: My friend will go to a concert by my favorite singer. But she does not even like that singer! It is not fair. | Answer 1: When your friend comes over, spend time with her alone instead of including your sister. No fight, no problem. But if your friend and your sister get into a fight, you will need to stand out, “I know you don’t love my sister, but I do. Please don’t say anythingbad like that, OK?” A true friend wouldn’t make you choose between friendship and family. |
Question B: I love doing sports, but my dad says I will never be the best of the team. What should I do? | Answer 2: It’s easy to see why you are upset, and you are right- so not fair at all.

Envy(嫉妒) makes you feel uncomfortable, and there is no need to feel sorry for yourself or jealous(嫉妒的) of someone else. So try to let this go. Think about what you have and be thankful for them. |
Question C: My best friend doesn’t like my sister. I love my sister! But I don’t want to lose my friend. | Answer 3: Sports can be about competition.

If he worries about your study, you have to make a promise then. |

27、 Many people who are looking to get a pet dog get a puppy. There are many reasons why they get puppies. After all, puppies are cute, friendly, and playful. But even though puppies make good pets, there are good reasons why you should consider getting an adult dog instead.
When you get a puppy, you have to teach it how to behave. You have to make sure that the puppy is house-trained so that it does not go to the bathroom inside the house. You have to teach the puppy not to jump up on your guests or chew on your shoes. You have to train the puppy to walk on a leash (皮带). This is a lot of work.
Many adult dogs have already been house- trained. Many adult dogs will not jump on or chew things that you do not want them to jump on or chew. Many adult dogs will be able to walk on a leash without pulling you to the other side of the street, most adult dogs will wait for you to play. What is more, they will sleep when you are sleeping and are happy to watch television on the couch right beside you.
Puppies also have a lot of energy and want to play all of the time. This can be fun, but you might not want to play as much as your puppy does. Puppies will not always sleep through the night or let you relax as you watch television.
There is one last reason why you should get an adult dog instead of a puppy. When most people go to the pound (收容所) to get a dog, they get a puppy. This means that many adult dogs spend a lot of time in the pound, and some never find good homes. So if you are looking to get a dog for a pet, you should think about getting an adult dog. They are good pets who need good homes.

【3】Why are adult dogs easier to take care of than puppies?

B. Because puppies have less energy than adult dogs do.
C. Because it is harder for adult dogs to find a home than it is for puppies.
D. Because it is harder for puppies to find a home than it is for adult dogs.
