You

You

goals.

A

goal

starts

with

a simple desire.

Do you use any 3 for not setting goals? Whenever it is, I am

closer to what you want. You will achieve more in months than many people

do in years.

action.

You

Setting

the right attitude and action. Keep reviewing your goals and watch how your

wish miraculously turns into your reality.

B

Tonya Andrews is a math teacher in Texas. For 16 years, she loved her

dear pet cat Blondie very much and wanted to spend as much time with her as

possible. It is totally understandable that she had a special feeling for

Blondie

because

she'd

saved

her

from

a

building

in

Forth

Worth.

But

recently,

shortly after she and her husband had realized that Blondie seemed to be

getting

sick,

the

elderly

cat

died

in

her

arms

on

her

way

to

the

pet

hospital.

Naturally, Mrs. Andrews was heart-broken.

After

Blondie's

death,

Mrs.

Andrews

went

to

work

every

day,

feeling

upset.

She couldn't help but share the sad news of her sad loss with some of her

students at Joshua High School in Joshua, TX, and shortly after, a few of

the girls in her class came up with a few surprises to cheer her up.

As one student filmed the moment, the girls first gave her some white

roses,

followed

by

cupcakes

and

balloons

to

express

their

care.

Mrs.

Andrews

seemed

touched,

but

it

was

their

next

surprise

that

deeply

moved

her

and

that

everyone was talking about.

All that the shocked teacher could seem to say was,

as she held the baby cats named Missy and Girlie.

What the high school students did is really meaningful, especially for

who

have

gone

good

news

is

that

it certainly looks like it was worth all the effort. Tonya Andrews finally

C

Zoos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But

are they actually a good thing?

WORD

版本

.

Those

people

who

are

against

zoos

would

argue

that

animals

often

suffer

（遭受痛苦）

physically

and

mentally

by

being

enclosed.

Even

the

best

man-made

environments

can't

come

close

to

matching

the

space,

diversity

（多样性）

,

and

freedom

that

animals

have

in

their

natural

homes.

This causes many zoo animals to become sick. Catching animals in the wild

also causes much suffering by separating families. Some zoos make animals

behave

unnaturally.

For

example,

ocean

parks

often

force

dolphins

and

whales

to

perform.

There

sea

animals

may

die

years

earlier

than

their

wild

relatives.

On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos can

educate the public about animal protection and encourage people to save

animals

and their homes. Some zoos provide a safe environment

for animals which have been mistreated in circuses, or pets which

have been

given up and no longer wanted. Zoos also carry out important research into

subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illness.

One of the most important modern functions of zoos is

supporting

international

breeding

（

繁

衍

）

programs,

especially

for

endangered

species

（物种）

.

In

the

wild,

some

of

the

species

have

difficulty

in finding mates and breeding, and they might also be hurt or even killed

by

people.

A

good

zoo

will

enable,

these

species

to

live

and

breed

in

a

safe

environment. In

addition, as numbers of some wild species

drop, there is an

increased

danger

of

populations

becoming

too

genetically

（基因上）

similar.

Breeding

programs

provide

a

safeguard:

zoo-bred

animals

can

be

put

into

the

wild to increase genetic diversity.

However,

those

people

who

are

against

zoos

say

that

many

zoo- bred

animals

are not put back into the wild. A lot of animals are sold not only to other

zoos

but

also

to

circuses

in

the

US

or

wild

parks

in

South

Africa,

where

some

people are willing to pay a lot of money for the chance to kill a helpless

animal. Often, these animals are familiar with humans and have very little

chance of escaping.
