W:Oh,come on.You are not telling a ghost story,are you?

M:Exactly.Tom,oh no,Tim,told me that by chance he saw an old man at the railway station selling newspapers.And he was surprised to see someone like his grandfather in a picture he had seen.So naturally he went to the man and asked him whether his name was Smith.And the man,I mean,his grandfather,said yes,and after that everything happened just like a film.

(Text 10)
When you take a walk a in any of the cities in the west, you often see a lot of people walking with dogs.It is still true that the dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world .But the reason why people keep a dog  have changed ,In the old days ,people used to train dogs to protect themselves against the attacks by other besasts.And later they came to realize that the dog was ont only us eful for protection but willing to obey their master.  For example, when people used dogs for hunting,the dogs would not eat without permission what they caught.But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals.Why do they keep dogs then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery,but the most important reason is fo r companionship.For a child,a dog is his best  friend when he has  no friends to play with; for a young couple,a dog is their child when they have no children; for old couples,a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up.So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.
