A long time ago, there lived a very old man. He was so old that he could not see or hear very well. He also could not walk very well, or eat very well for his hand shook. The old man's son and daughter-in-law thought he might make trouble at table. So, they had him eat his meals in the corner of the kitchen without a table.
They gave him very little to eat. The old man would have a sad look on his face as he looked at his son and daughter-in-law’s dinner table. One day the old man’s hand shook so terribly that he dropped his dish on the floor. The daughter-in-law became angry and shouted at the old man. And after that, his meals were served in a broken dish.
Not long afterwards, the family was sitting having their dinner while the four-year-old grandson was sitting on the floor carefully checking pieces of wood. The father asked, “What are you doing?” “I am making a small bowl.”
“Why are you making it?” The son answered. “So that I can fill it with your and mother’s food when I grow up.”
The old man’s son and daughter-in-law looked at one another and without saying a word started crying. The two quickly brought their old father to their dinner table.

Have you ever noticed how you feel when you play with a dog or a cat? Or maybe even some other a1., like a goldfish or a rabbit. Of course, playing with pets is fun and spending time with them can also be good f2. our mental health.
"A pet can remind you that you are not a3.," said life coach Desiree. She added that pets give us unconditional(无条件的) 14.. This can be helpful when you feel lonely.
I can speak from my experiences about this. Sometimes I felt a bit unhappy or lonely since I lived by myself, b5. I never had the idea to own an animal pet. Recently I have the chance to take care of m6. friend's cats while she is away. Caring for her cats has made a big difference in my life.
When I come home, they're v7. happy to see me. When I'm tired or sad, they will c8. to me and "ask" me to pet(爱抚) them. It's almost like they can tell when I need someone to chat with. So the next time when you're f9. a bit blue, maybe you should find a dog or a cat to talk to. Even something as easy as petting a cat can make you feel h10. and healthier. Why not keep a pet to make your life different?
