Last Sunday, when I went out with Melanie, we saw two ladies with their pets in a coffee shop by chance. Then we were talking our respective pets at the moment. That was the first time that I was really thinking about effect of pets in human life.

I used to have a female pet named Sasa at home. When I first met her at my aunt's home, she was so lovely and cute. She was with her mother within her first month with my little cousins then she went to my home. She was with my parent passing five months and brought a lot of happiness to my home. Unfortunately, she was lost a couple of months ago. I always pray she can find a new family and live with them well.

I used to envy the other children who had a pet especially when I felt lonely. I thought pets are good, affectionate, loyal and obedient companions to their master. I used to dream of having the dog in 101 Dalmatians who could play with me, do things for me, help me get rid of my loneliness and kill the time. Actually, Sasa was really a dog like the one in that film. She was the source of fun and happiness at my home. She always entertains and amuses me except that she's ill.

I consider pets are really good to families that have children. Pets can be guardians and doorkeepers, but what's more important is that keeping pets does good to children's growth. Keeping pets helps children to nurture a tender loving heart and learn to care for others. It helps children to develop their senses of responsibility and teaches children to appreciate life. Children get invaluable training in learning to treat people the same way when they treat their pets kindly and patiently. They can also learn the behaviors necessary for becoming responsible parents and citizens from keeping pets. Those are social skills that are estates for life.

Anyway, although pets cause problems of hygiene(卫生), pets are always the best friends to humans, especially for children.

51. The writer began considering the effects of pets when ________.

A. she first met Sasa at her aunt's home

B. the pet dog Sasa was lost

C. she heard others' talk last Sunday

D. she played with Sasa

52. When the author first met her, Sasa was ________.

A. five months old

B. more than one month old

C. less than one month old

D. a couple of months old

53. 101 Dalmatians may be the name of ________.

A. some famous dogs

B. a famous film

C. some places where pets are kept

D. some robots

54. The author seems to think pets ________.

A. are useless to the family

B. are always dangerous to children

C. are especially good to children's development

D. are mo
