Als, taking care f a pet teaches us respnsibility, as we need t feed them, walk them and keep them healthy.
Hwever, sme say animals shuld be free. That’s true t sme extent. We must never keep wild animals as pets. But fr dmesticated pets, a lving hme is better than being hmeless. What matters is that we treat pets with kindness and respect their needs. Then keeping pets can be a beautiful relatinship between humans and animals.Sng f the Parting Sn
Translated by Xu Yuanchng
Frm the threads (线) a mther’s hand weaves (编织);
A gwn (袍) fr the parting sn is made.
Sewn stitch by stitch befre he leaves;
Fr fear his return be delayed (延误).
Such kindness as yung grass receives;
Frm the warm sun can’t be repaid.
Sng f the Parting Sn is a simple and tuching pem written by Meng Jia（751-814）. The pem shws a cmmn picture in ur mind—a mther is making clthes fr her sn wh is leaving and will be away frm hme fr a lng time. Nearly every mther has dne smething like this fr her children. Fr this reasn, this shrt pem has tuched many peple’s hearts. Meng spent a great deal f time thinking abut every wrd. Fr example, the writer cmpared threads and the gwn t the clse relatinship between mm and sn. What’s mre, the grass in the pem refers t a special traditinal flwer in China. The warm sun refers t the lve a mther has fr her sn. One is s small and the ther is s great that they cannt match with each ther.
