We Should Respect Every Life In The World

曲永華

動物是人類的好朋友，本文講述了兩個有關(guān)動物的故事，告訴我們要和動物和平相處，尊重每一個生命。

Animals are our friends. Sometimes they make trouble， but sometimes they can help us. And they hope to live a happy life， too. Here are two real stories from our readers.

The first story is from Ray. “My cat， Tiger， hates it when I use my iPad because it takes my attention away from him. One year， I had a fall at home and was on the floor for 16 hours. During this time， I was unable to move and couldn’t get to the phone to call for help. Tiger stayed by my side until he disappeared under my bed. ‘What’s he up to？’ I wondered. To my surprise， he started to push something towards me. It was my iPad， which I didn’t realize had fallen off the bed and onto the floor. He probably didn’t know what it was， but he knew that it made me happy. Thanks to Tiger， I was able to communicate with my friend， Becky， who then told my doctor.”

The second story is from Colin. “Years ago， my friend Julius saved a bird—a wild ‘Mom’ cockatoo（鸚鵡）from the side of the road and kept it as a pet in a big cage（籠子）. It lost one of her wings， so she was unable to return to the wild. Soon， two wild cockatoos came visiting and one ‘Dad’ bird wanted to find his way into the cage. The ‘Mom’ cockatoo in the cage was soon expecting. But as she couldn’t fly， ‘Dad’ cockatoo built a home in the tree， keeping off everyone who got close to ‘Mom’ cockatoo. ‘Baby’ cockatoo would spend his days flying off with his dad， leaving his mom behind. She would sit and wait until they returned home each afternoon. The family stayed together happily.”

After reading the stories， don’t you think we should get along well with animals？ No matter they are our pets or live in the wild， they have their feelings. We should respect every life in the world.

我們應(yīng)該尊重世界上的每一個生命

動物是我們的朋友。有時他們制造麻煩，但有時他們能幫助我們。他們也希望過上幸福的生活。以下是來自讀者的兩個真實(shí)故事。

第一個故事是雷寫的。“我的貓?zhí)└裼憛捨矣胕Pad，因?yàn)樗鼤盐业淖⒁饬乃砩弦崎_。有一年，我在家摔了一跤，在地板上躺了16個小時。這段時間，我無法動彈，也無法打電話求助。泰格一直守在我身邊，直到他消失在我的床下?！诟墒裁?？’我想知道。令我驚訝的是，他開始向我推東西。那是我的iPad，我不知道它從床上掉到了地板上。泰格可能不知道那是什么，但他知道那讓我很開心。多虧了泰格，我才得以和我的朋友貝基交流，貝基隨后告訴了我的醫(yī)生?！?/p>

第二個故事是科林寫的?！皫啄昵埃业呐笥阎炖~斯從路邊救了一只鳥——一只野生的‘媽媽’鳳頭鸚鵡，把她當(dāng)作寵物養(yǎng)在一個大籠子里。她失去了一只翅膀，所以她無法回到野外。很快，兩只野生鳳頭鸚鵡來了，其中一只‘爸爸’鳳頭鸚鵡想要找到進(jìn)入籠子的路?；\子里的‘媽媽’鳳頭鸚鵡很快就懷孕了。但由于她不會飛，‘爸爸’鳳頭鸚鵡在樹上建了一個家，避開了所有接近‘媽媽’鳳頭鸚鵡的人。小鳳頭鸚鵡每天都和爸爸一起飛走，把媽媽留在身后?！畫寢尅P頭鸚鵡每天下午都會坐著等他們回家。一家人幸福地待在一起?！?/p>
