People will do anything to see a free show—even if it is a bad one. When the news got round that a comedy show would be presented at our local cinema by the P. and U. Bird Seed Company, we all rushed to see it. We had to queue for hours to get in and there must have been several hundred people present just before the show began. Unfortunately, the show was one of the dullest we have ever seen. Those who failed to get in need not have felt disappointed, as many of the artistes who should have appeared did not come. The only funny things we heard that evening came from the advertiser at the beginning of the programme. He was obviously very nervous and for some minutes stood awkwardly before the microphone. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone burst out laughing．We all know what the poor man should have said, but what he actually said was: ‘This is the Poo and Ee Seed Bird Company. Good ladies, evening and gentlemen!’ (187 words)

The kitten was rescued, but didn't make it out of surgery in one piece.
The veterinarian at Laurel Oaks Animal Hospital in Kingsland, now caring for the kitten, says she sees animal abuse more often than you might imagine.
This kitten is playful and affectionate(充满情爱的), but he has already seen how cruel a place the world can be.
Dr. Julie Clark Blount is the veterinarian treating the kitten now. "I think they were actually kicking him or throwing him or something of that nature," said Blount. "They had damaged the whole bundle of nerves(神经) that are up in the armpit(腋窝)and control the functioning of the entire leg, and it's not something that would get better over time. "
Blount says they were forced to amputate(切断)his front right leg. "It doesn't seem to bother him at all and he runs and he plays and he loves attention and he's pretty spoiled already, and he's eating like a little pig, and doing fabulously(难以置信地) for us," said Blount.
Doing well, but Blount says other pets out there never survive abuse（虐待）.
"He's one of the lucky ones," she said.
Blount says unless abusers like his are caught and prosecuted（被起诉）, they could go on to bigger and worse things.
"We wish there were more strict laws to protect animals because if they're doing this to pets, then what would they end up doing to people, or kids, or anything else later on down the road?" wonders Blount. （243 words）

62. The underlined word veterinarian in the second paragraph probably means_______.
A. a scientist B. a doctor treating animals
C. a doctor treating people D. a lawyer
63. The passage mainly wants to tell us that________.
A. the world is a cruel place B. the kitten was one of the lucky ones
