狗是大家都熟悉的宠物。可你知道吗?在美国,有一些特殊的狗可以帮助孩子愉快地阅读。
The dog is a very popular pet in the United States. Most dogs just live with their families, but some dogs have very special jobs to do. These dogs have had special training. The training allows them to go into public buildings and comfort people in need. The dogs are trained to be calm and quiet. They enjoy spending time with people.
Some of the dogs work in schools and libraries. They serve as warm and caring friends to children, but they also do more. In one town in California, the local library is trying to encourage kids to enjoy reading more. The children are invited to the library. They are paired up with a dog and can read to the dog. The dogs have been trained to be listening partners for young readers. They don’t judge (批评;指责) a child who cannot read well; they just listen calmly. The children can read at their own pace (速度). The kids find it easier than reading in front of their class. Sometimes, reading in front of their classmates makes them nervous. The dogs are quiet and attentive. They listen very well.
These dogs are making a difference in the lives of the children they visit. The children look forward to reading to the dogs, and the dogs love the attention. The library and the teachers are very happy with the program.
