問題詳情:
I still remember it was in the winter of 1990 that, together with the help of my older sister, I 41 down my wishes for Christmas onto a piece of paper. How I wished on Christmas Eve my grandest wish would be 42 and placed under the Christmas tree—a puppy. When we were done, our wish-lists were collected by our parents with the promise to be 43 to Santa’s hard-working helpers.
The next day, our parents sat us down in the living-room, with 44 expressions on their faces. As it 45 , they had seen our wishes, now wanting to talk to us about one wish 46 — the puppy. For a moment, I held my breath, but was 47 when they told us that they weren’t against a puppy. What they 48 against was putting it under the Christmas tree. That was not a good idea.

An animal was a 55 family member that needed lots of love and attention. An animal was not a 56 , but a family decision. A serious decision. And a big decision.
57 , my Parents share my love for animals, so the decision came reasonably 58 . After our grandparents had given their 59 up for taking care of the dog, while we were on future vacations, the answer was yes. Yes, we would get a puppy.
The following days and weeks, there was only one 60 :our new family member! Yes, a family member, because animals have their rights. They are not simply food or gifts. We humans must attend, love and protect them.
