Nowadays, many families have a dog or a cat as a pet. Some people think that pets are good and helpful companies. Some of them even go so far as saying that animals are as good as humans, and their rights should be respected .Senior citizens are especially fond of keeping pet because they are always feeling lonely at home and they see the cats or dogs as their partner.
现如今，很多家庭都养有宠物狗或宠物猫。有的人认为宠物是很好的伙伴，甚至有人说动物和人类一样，也需要被尊重。老人特别喜欢养宠物，因为他们待在家里，比较容易感觉到寂寞，他们把宠物当做自己的伙伴。
But some other people do not like pets. They say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people from keeping pets in cities and towns.
但有的人却不喜欢宠物，他们认为动物吵闹、肮脏并且危险，提议制定相关禁止在城镇养宠物的法律。
In my opinion, pets are loyal friends that will never betray us. Staying with pets, we shall enjoy happiness and feel relaxed. Most important of all, keeping pets helps people to reduce loneliness and forget their unpleasant things for the time being.
我认为宠物是我们的朋友，不会背叛我们。和宠物待在一起，我们能感受到快乐和放松。最重要的是，养宠物能减少寂寞，也能暂时忘记不愉快的事情。
