Sometimes...
Sometimes I feel lonely,
Like I’m by myself with no one here.
When I’m that way, I call a friend.
My lonely moods(心情) soon disappear(消失).
Sometimes I feel excited,
Like I have some news I have to share!
My friends open their ears to me.
They always listen, talk, and .
Sometimes I feel so sad,
Like my world is cold and darkest blue.
At those times my friends let me know
They’re with me, standing strong and true.
Sometimes I feel mixed-up,
Like I just don’t know how I should feel.
My friends then help me figure out
What’s right and wrong, what’s false and real!

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(友谊)between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give joy to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!
Animals can help people，too. Dogs can be taught to be the “eyes” for a blind person(盲人)or “ears” for a deaf(耳聋)person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier，too. Because of that，they bring animals into hospitals for “visits”.
Americans hold “Be Kind to Animals Week” in 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.
If you don’t have a pet，be kind to animals around you. For example，if you see a street dog，just leave it alone，or make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to animals，try to speak up. As people，we must protect(保护)animals who can’t speak for themselves.“Some people even leave all their money to their pets when they die!” is used to prove(证明) that ________.
| A．pets have the right(权利)to inherit(继承)money |
| B．money can make pets happy |
| C．it’s the best way to spend money |
| D．some pets are as important to their owners as their children |

| B．Dogs Call help people live happier. |
| C．Dogs can help people make everything. |
| D．Dogs can make people’s lives richer. |

| D．We have done a lot of things for pets. |
What do you see when you look at abstract (抽象) art? Does it make sense to you? Does it look like anything?
Abstract art became popular in the early 20th century. Artists did not want to paint, draw, or sculpt things like they looked. They didn’t want their art to be realistic (现实的). They were more interested in basic shapes（基础的造型） and colours.
Picasso is probably the most famous of these artists. He painted and drew in many, many styles. Sometimes he used a lot of blue colours (his “blue period”). Later, he used more red and pink colours (his “rose period”). Many of his other paintings are called “cubist (立体画派)” because they are made of painted squares.
After a long time, Picasso’s paintings became more and more abstract. He painted people and things using strange shapes. His work was so original, many his fellow artists didn’t understand it.
Kindinsky, another famous artist, used lines, shapes, and patterns to paint his subjects. His paintings also used strong colours to express feelings.
Other artists like the surrealists (超现实主义者), they were interested in the subconscious (潜意识). Painters like Breton and Magritte used many symbols (象征) in their work. The meaning or subject of their work wasn’t always clear. Dai, another artist, painted pictures that looked like dreams.
There are still many abstract artists around the world. It's often hard to say what their art is about. That’s the way many artists like better. They want each person to look at art and find their own meaning in it.
Which would be most like abstract art?
| A．a painting of a horse |
| B．a sculpture(雕塑) of a car |
| C．a drawing of two people in a coffee house. |
| D．A red and blue painting, with no clear subject. |
What happened to Picasso’s work after a long time?
| A．It became more abstract. |
| B．It became less original. |
| C．He went from using red colours to using blue colours |
| D．He only painted with coloured squares |
Who is probably the most famous abstract artist?
| A．Breton | B．Dali. | C．Picasso | D．Magritte |
Which of the following is Not true?
| A．Picasso painted in many different styles. |
| B．Dali was interested in dreams. |
| C．Abstract artists feel each work of art only has one meaning |
| D．Magritte’s art was full of symbols. |
An interesting experiment (实验) is being done at the Children’s Hospital I in London. Animals, such as dogs, cats, and even horses help sick children to get better.
There are many reasons why this treatment (治疗) is important. Dr. Marcus Finch of the Children’s Hospital said, “Children and teenagers have many changes as they are growing up. When they have problems, it is not easy for them to open up any talk. However, when they are with a pet animal, they calm down, relax, and smile. Animals do not speak and so they do not criticize (评论). They listen and they do not stop the children. Children can talk to animals because they can trust them. Animals know how to keep a secret! Also, the children feel needed because they help to feed the animals and look after them.”
At the Children’s Hospital, you can find children playing with cats, dogs, goats, and riding horses. The doctors just watch and take notes and wonder at the power of pets!
