宠物的益处
1. The basic meaning of “pet” is an animal we keep for emotional rather than economic reasons. A pet animal keeps us company and reduces our stress and loneliness. But pets offer us more than just companionship; they provide us the opportunity to love and be loved.
2. Pets can calm us and bring us out of a funk when human words don’t help.
3. When pets depend on us for food and shelter, they make us feel needed and important.

4. Animals can communicate with human beings, for they’re quite sensitive to anger and sorrow.
5. A pet dog brings its master a sense of confidence from the faithfulness it brings to the owner.
