You can get fined nowadays, you know, for not wearing your seat belt. W: Yes, sorry, I forgot. Could I open this window？ M: Well, I’d rather you don’t if you don’t mind.

Families should sit down and thoroughly discuss the problems involved before buying a dog. [29] Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog, the parents are the ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you don't know much about dogs, it's a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA for books about various kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy. In reading about the different breeds, you should know that a dog described as very alert may be too jumpy and bouncy. When a book describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it probably means that the dog won't be happy living in a small apartment. Dog breeds vary in popularity as the years go by. [30] One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd, this is because it provides protection as well as comRanionship. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children to handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice. There dogs are very small and easy to train. [3] They don't need to be walked daily, since they can exercise in the space available in the home. (33) A．Children. B．Family. C．Parents. D．ASPCA

When you go to look at apartments to rent, there are several things you ought to do. First, you should find out if the apartment is safe. Be sure there are good locks on all the windows and doors. It is also a good idea to check all the appliances as well as the water and electricity to be sure everything is working. It might also be a good idea to talk to other people who rent apartments in the same building. This will help you to find out if there are any problems.

W: Oh, please be serious! I suppose they will change shapes as well. If you want a big car to take all your friends camping, I suppose you'll just be able to snap your fingers and make it happen. Or if you want a sporty two-seater, you could just tell the car what you wanted, and it would do the rest. Is that how it will work？ M: No, I am serious. They have found a way to alter the surface of metals so that they can reflect different colors just by passing a small amount of electricity over them. W: Oh, I see. So anything that touches the outside of the car will get a shock. That sounds lovely. M: It's only a tiny amount of electricity. It wouldn't be enough to shock anybody. W: Well, it sounds pretty difficult to believe. M: Yes, it's quite amazing. The important thing you have to remember is that the color of an object is really just an illusion created by the way light bounces off its surface. Engineers have been able to produce a car that changes colors at the touch of a button by slightly rearranging the position of the particles on the surface of the metal. W: It sounds so amazing. But I guess it could be possible. M: It is possible today. The only problem is that it is very expensive. To produce a car with a surface that changed colors would cost almost twice as much as what a regular car costs. For that much money you could just by the car and have it repainted twenty times, so it's not very practical yet. W: Yes, but in other ways it could be more practical. If you took your car to be painted twenty times, it would use quite a bit of polluting chemicals, and it would take a long time. M: You're right there, but how many people really get their car repainted that many time？ W: Hmm, I suppose you're right, but I sure would love to have my car match my outfit every day.
