A dog can be a happy addition to your family, but if you choose the wrong kind of dog, it can cause a lot of trouble.Families should sit down and thoroughly discuss the problems involved before buying a dog. Even if the children in your family are the ones who want the dog, the parents are ones who are really responsible for seeing that the animal is properly cared for. If you don’t know much about dogs, it’s a good idea to go to the library or the ASPCA (美国动物保护协会)for books about various kinds of dogs, as well as books about how to train a puppy. In reading about the different kinds, you should know that a dog described as very alert may be too jumpy and bouncy. When a book describes a dog as an ideal hunting dog, it probably means that the dog won’t be happy living in a small apartment. Dogs of different kinds vary in popularity as the years go by. One of the most popular dogs these days is the German shepherd. This is because it provides protection as well as companionship. The family should be warned that these dogs grow up to be very big, and may be too powerful for children to handle. If space is limited, a toy dog may be a good choice. These dogs are very small and easy to train. They don’t need to be walked daily, since they can exercise in the space available in the home.1.

They come to watch the ―Indy 500.‖ This 500-mile race is the most famous of all auto races.The motor race track is on the spot where an old farm once stood. A man named Carl Fisher bought the land in 1909. The car was a new invention at that time. Hardly anyone took the idea of car racing seriously. Yet Fisher pushed ahead with his plan to build a track.In two years the track was finished. It took 450 workers, 300 mules, and seven giant steamrollers to do the job. First, the ground was made perfectly flat. Then gravel was spread over the two-and-a-half-mile track. The top layer was made of crushed stone and tar. Grandstands to hold 15,000 people were build.The first races at the track were a disaster. The road broke under the speeding autos. Dust and rocks flew into drivers faces. There were several accidents. Some drivers and even some fans were killed.Auto racing might have ended after that. But Carl Fisher promised to make the track safer.
