很多宠物是没有象人的那种情感的。（2）耽误工作（3）疏远了和家人的关系［托福参看范文］Topic:182Humanhas a long history of feeding pets. With the developmentof humansociety more and more people have pets in their families.They loveto accompanied by their pets and they look them as theirfamily mrs.They eat with their pets, stroll with their pets, andeven sleepwith their pets. And I think having a close relationshipwith petsis very good for people, the reasons why I say so asfollows.First,having a pet is very good for children. Childrenalways need someoneto play with them, take care of them, but theirparents cant do itall the time. When children have a pet, forexample, a dog, theywill be attracted by it and spend most oftheir time playing withit. The children wont feel lonely whentheir parents cant takecare of them. Besides, that also makeparents have their own time todo something they need.Second, petsare also good for adults,especially those work under pressure. Nowmany people work so hardeveryday that they dont have time torelax and talk with friends.If they have pets, whenever they getto home they can talk to them,look them as persons, tell them whatthey are anxious about. Thiswould help people to reduce theirpressure and make them have abetter mood.Third, most of the ownersof pets are senior citizens.Thats not a coincidence. Becauseyoungsters leave home for theirnew lives. They dont have muchtime to spend with their parents.The old people feel so lonelywhen they facing the empty rooms. Petscan reduce their loneliness.Old people can take care of them, feedthem, talk to them just liketaking care of their own children. Andthe medical research showsthat patting pets, such as cats and dogscan reduce the bloodpressure, this is also very important to oldpeople.Althoughsometimes pets make your room a mess, break yourfavorite vase,even some time they bite you, the advantages ofhaving a closerelationship with pets overweight the disadvantages.Have a pet ifyou like and enjoy it.Topic: 182Nearly everybody hasever kept oneor more pets.There are dogs, cats,birds and evenhorses andgorillas.Many people treat them just like their ownfriends, boysor girls,brothers or sisters.But other people dislikekeepingpets.Personally,I approve of such relationship because Ithink petsare so lively and easy-going.First of all,sometimespeople have toshow their kindness to others.Pets are so beautifuland lively thateveryone likes them.When pets are hungry,people cookdelicious foodfor them,when pets are ill, people take care ofthem.The ownershave to help their pets wash themselves and tellthem stories andsay goodnight to them. People may find itt veryhard andtiring.But they also find they are so omnipotenct andimportant totheir pets.In the other hand,Pets are so reliable andloyal.Whenthe old feel lonely or sad, their pets stay at theirsides.peoplecan tell the pets their feelings,dreams and secrets.Notonly willthe pet listen to he or she, but it will also feel thesamefeelings as the narrator.They can help people get releasedandforget the sadness quickly.Pets do be our bestfriends.Although,asa matter of fact,some people have pointed outthat sometimes petscan cause a lot of troubles.They may carryterrible diseases andthey hurt you.Other people think the more timeplaying withpets,the more likely away from the society.That may notbe veryserious and even true.pets are our good friends,they give usjoyand also teach us how to communicate with us and buildupfriendship.So what we have to know is a little knowledgeaboutprotection andprevention.From above,we need no hesitation tosaythat it is good for people to have a close relationship withtheirpets.Topic: 182I think being very close to a pet can be bothapositive and a negative thing. Health professionals haveconcludedthat having a pet is very healthy for everyone. People whohaveheart disease or similar health problems are often urged to getapet because it can lower your blood pressure. However, somepeopleget anxious about their pets. If you always worry about thepetgetting lost or not getting the center food to eat, then thatisnthealthy for you.Many pets are very loving and its easy tolovethem back. Some people, though, go overboard. They treat theirpetslike one of the family. Sometimes they even set a place forthem atthe table or give them their own rooms in the house. Theytreatthem as if they were children. Some pets are, in fact,substitutesfor children. People need to keep their perspectiveabout theirpets. Dressing a pet up in clothes like a child is notemotionallyhealthy. Pets are animals and get confused if you expectthem toact like human beings.There are now stores devoted entirelytopets. They sell pet food, pet toys, pet clothes, pet homes.Petsshould be given appropriate food, and they should have a fewtoys,since they need some enjoyment just like humans do. However,somepet owners spend hundreds of dollars on supplies for theirpets.There are children in the world who dont have clothes or foodortoys. It would be better to give some of that moneytocharity.Feeling close to your pet can be very satisfyingandhealthy, as long as you dont overdo it
