    IN the stillness of a sleepless Saturday evening, Linda and Cindy were lying in bed, their minds drawn to deliberate on the same thing．

    They hadn’t been on speaking terms since last Saturday, when they had a fierce quarrel． The whole week was torture（折磨）．Both wished to make up, but neither was willing to break the ice．

     The clock was ticking rhythmically in the dorm． Both girls counted in their heads: "Five, four, three, two, one, speak．"

      "Shall we talk?" both started and stopped at the same time．Feeling embarrassed, they paused for a few uncomfortable seconds before starting again: "Sorry, I …"

     Again, both paused but soon began laughing heartily．

     Sitting up, Cindy gestured with her hand and said, "Look, Linda, I’m sorry, I really am．I was being unreasonable．"

    "No, the fault’s all mine," said Linda． "I was too upset and I vented（发泄） it all on you．"

    "Well, well, forget about it," Cindy said in a jokingly childish voice． "We are what we are．"

    The once-thick wall had crumbled（崩溃，瓦解）．

    "But, Cindy, do think of changing! Sorrows do not justify（证明…正确、有道理） your being so pessimistic（悲观的） all the time．You are not alone; I will always be by your side．Don’t let the miseries of the past hold you back．"

    "I just can’t get over all that’s happened． Death has carried away my parents and every other thing there is in me．"

    "Come now," said Linda．"Life is in our own hands! Find a way out!"

        "OK, I’ll try．Anyway, there is a writing competition．I’ve already signed us up for it," said Cindy, a smile forming on her face．

         Xiangzi - Lucky, in English - is appropriately named. His owner Qiu Hong, a sports marketer,lets the
    dog enjoy two daily walks,a collection of imported American toys, $300 worth of monthly food and treats and his own sofa in her high-rise apartment. When Ms. Qiu feels bored, she takes Xiangzi out for a long
    run in her car.
         In a sense, Xiangzi is not just a dog, but a social phenomenon - and, perhaps, a marker of how quickly the Chinese nation is booming through its transformation from poor farmer to first-world citizen.Twenty
    years ago,there were hardly any dogs in Beijing, but now there're 900,000 registered dogs with countless
    thousands of others unlicensed. How this came to be is, in some ways, the story of modern China as well.
    "People used to be focused on improving their own lives, and they weren't really acquainted with raising
    dogs," said Ms. Qiu. "But with the improvement in the economy, people's outlooks (观念) have
    changed."     
         Having a dog can be a way to relieve the stress in people's lives, but mostly Beijing dogs have, as in the West, become objects of affection - even devotion - by their owners. It's easy to find dog-treat stores,
    dog Web sites, dog social networks, dog swimming pools - even, for a time recently, a bring-your-dog
    cinema and a bring-your-dog bar on Beijing's downtown nightclub row.
         The doglike devotion of pet owners here seems to have softened the city government heart. In 1994,
    Beijing officials relaxed their no-dog policy to "severely restrict" dogs. In 2003,it was changed again to
    allow anyone to own a dog, but to limit city dogs to no more than 35 centimeters in height. And nowadays the restriction seems to be loosely carried out.
         As for sti-fried Pekingese (京叭狗) - well, that dog,too, may have seen its day. A formal suggestion
    to ban the eating of dogs has been made by a law professor named Chang Jiwen, who considered himself "not so much a dog lover as a China lover". "With China developing so quickly, more people should know how to treat animals properly," he said in 3 telephone interview.

    A.Iive under too much pressure
    B.Iove dogs evry much
    C.are good at making money
    D.have modernized their city
    3.Judging from the article,we can know that______.
