　　　 Saturday arrived, and the game was not 32 well. The team was two points 33 . When William ran onto the sidelines, the coach was 34 to see him back so soon. “Coach, please. I’ve just got to play today,” said William. The coach 35 not to hear him. There was no way be wanted his 36 player in this close game. But the boy insisted, and finally feeling sorry for him, the coach 　37 .

　　　 This boy was doing so fine this time that the opposing team lost the game. After the game, the coach asked the boy 38 he could do it. The boy said tearfully, “Did you know my dad was blind? He came to all my games, but today was the first time he 39 see me play in Heaven, and I wanted to show him I was able to do it!”

　Animals perform many useful and entertaining jobs. Dogs are 　1　　 　valuable in guiding the blind, protecting property, 　2　　 　lost people, and hunting criminals. 　3　 are used in guarding herds, carrying men in lands where 　4　　 　are no roads, and helping farmers 　5　　 　their land. Pigeons have long been used to carry 　6　　 　. Wild animals from the jungles, forests and seas are very 　7　　 　performers in circuses and moving pictures. People realize that, 　8　　 　animals may not have the same intelligence(智力) as human beings, they are 　9　　 　enough to learn certain things.

　The 　10　　 　thing a dog is taught is 　11　　 　. It should not take too 　12　　 　for him to learn commands. Simple 　13　　 　, such as “sit, lie down, stay there, come here,” can even be taught by 　14　　 　.

　Training a dog to be a watchdog often 　15　　 　unexpected results. Some dogs quickly learn the difference between 　16　　 　people and friends. This is 　17　　 　their masters welcome friends and 　18　　 　them into their houses. However, some dogs will always attack the 　19　　 　who comes to deliver letters. One 　20　　 　for this behavior is that, although the postman comes to the house 　21　　 　, he never enters the house. Therefore, the 　22　　 　thinks the postman is someone who is not wanted but 　23　　 　coming back anyway. Masters of dogs who attack postmen can 　24　　 　show the dog that the postman is a friend and that the dog does not need to 　25　　 　him as an unwanted person.
