Thephenomenon of keeping pets is nothing strange nowadays. And when it comes tothe topic if it’s good for people to keep pets, people have different kinds ofopinions.

現(xiàn)在，養(yǎng)寵物已經(jīng)是一種很常見的現(xiàn)象了。但是談到養(yǎng)寵物到底好不好的問題時，人們又有不同的觀點。

Somepeople assume that it’s good to keep pets in the house, especially for theolds. The pets can keep them company as well as make them feel safe. As forkids, keeping pets around them makes them more caring and more compassionate whichis quite a good way for young parents to educate their children. Moreover, petscan also look after the house and when there’s no one at home.

有的人認(rèn)為在家養(yǎng)寵物是好的，特別是老人來說。寵物能陪伴他們，也能給他們帶來安全感。對于小孩來說，養(yǎng)寵物能使他們更有同情心，這是父母教育孩子的一種很好的方式。再者，當(dāng)家里沒人時，寵物也能看家護院。

However,others argue that keeping pets is not good. In, their opinion, keeping pets isnot healthy since pets may have some viruses with them which you don’t evenknow. What’s more, pets’ defecating indiscriminately makes cities dirty. Caringthe pets with you when taking public transport like buses is not so convenient,because other people might have a pet allergy.

但是，其他人卻覺得這不好。他們認(rèn)為養(yǎng)寵物并不健康，可能會攜帶一些我們不知道的病毒。更有甚者，寵物隨處大小便會使我們的城市變臟。當(dāng)你乘坐比如公交車之類的公共交通時，攜帶寵物是很不方便的，因為其他人可能會對寵物過敏。

Asfar as I am concerned, it depends on the situation if it’s good to keep a pet ornot. But, no matter what, if one keeps pets, he or she should treat them in theright way. For instance, washing pets regularly to keep them clean, and it’sbetter don’t carry a pet with you when taking public transport.

我認(rèn)為，養(yǎng)寵物到底好不好應(yīng)該根據(jù)具體情況來定。如果能正確得飼養(yǎng)寵物，這可能會使培養(yǎng)好性格的一種很好的方式。但是一旦養(yǎng)了寵物，就應(yīng)該好好對待它們。例如，定期給它們洗澡，保持干凈；出去乘坐公共交通時，最好不要帶上寵物。
