　　Some people are of the opinion that keeping pets such as cats and dogs is beneficial to city dwellers. What do you think?

　　有些人認(rèn)為何養(yǎng)寵物，比如貓和狗，對(duì)城市居民有好處，你的觀點(diǎn)是什么？

　　Some people are critical of keeping pets, such as cats and dogs in cities, claiming that there are simply not even open spaces for them to roam freely. They also argue that pets pollute living environments. However, I am of the opinion that owning pets is rewarding to city dwellers.

　　First of all, they could act as companions and stress relievers and in some cases help to foster family cohesion.While they are traditionally associated with family-type households, pets are just as important to households without children; indeed they are often surrogates for children in childless families. This applies particularly to the elderly, who usually form every close associations with their pets. In an era when the population is aging and more people are living alone, pets can provide valuable relief from loneliness.

　　In addition, pets are particularly important for children. A pet in the family keeps kids in touch with a more natural, animal world. Seeing a pet give birth brings understanding of the naturalness of childbirth, and seeing a pet die helps a child to cope with sorrow. Learning to care for a pet helps a child to grow up into a loving adult who feels responsible towards those dependent on him. Rightly we teach children to be kind to their pets. They should learn, too, that pets are good for human beings.

　　People living in the countryside may have access to many types of domestic animals such as cows, horses, and sheep. This is simply not true in cities. Pets can provide a limited opportunity for city dwellers to get in touch with nature. This helps people to become more environmentally conscious.

　　All in all, I strongly feel that those living in cities can benefit from having pets.

　　有些人不贊成在城市里飼養(yǎng)寵物，比如貓和狗。他們認(rèn)為沒(méi)有空地讓這些寵物自由地溜達(dá)，而且這些寵物會(huì)污染生活環(huán)境。然而，我認(rèn)為飼養(yǎng)寵物對(duì)市民有好處。首先，寵物可以陪伴人們，減輕人們的壓力，有時(shí)還可以增進(jìn)家庭的團(tuán)結(jié)。在傳統(tǒng)觀念上，寵物被看作是家庭的一員。對(duì)沒(méi)有孩子的家庭來(lái)說(shuō)，寵物就是孩子的替代者，它和孩子一樣重要。尤其是對(duì)老年人，他們和寵物非常親密。在老齡化日益嚴(yán)重的時(shí)代，更多的人都得獨(dú)自生活，寵物可以把他們從孤獨(dú)中解脫出來(lái)。

　　此外，寵物對(duì)孩子而言也很重要。家里養(yǎng)寵物可以讓孩子們和更自然的動(dòng)物世界接觸?？吹綄櫸锷a(chǎn)可以幫助孩子了解寶寶的自然出生，看到寵物死亡也能幫助孩子應(yīng)對(duì)悲傷。通過(guò)照顧寵物可以讓孩子在長(zhǎng)大后變成一個(gè)有愛(ài)心的人，也讓他們懂得對(duì)每一個(gè)依賴于他們的人都要有責(zé)任心。我們應(yīng)該教育孩子好好對(duì)待寵物，也應(yīng)該讓他們懂得寵物對(duì)人類是有好處的。

　　在鄉(xiāng)村生活的人會(huì)更容易接觸到各種家禽，如牛、馬、羊。在城市中卻并非如此。飼養(yǎng)寵物是城市居民接觸自然的一個(gè)有限的機(jī)會(huì)。這也會(huì)幫助人們樹立環(huán)保意識(shí)。總之，我堅(jiān)決認(rèn)為飼養(yǎng)寵物對(duì)城市居民是非常有好處的。
