Dogs are social animals and without proper training，they will behave like wild animals.They
will
spoil
your
house，destroy
your belongings，bark excessively，fight other dogs and even bite you.Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing.The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting.
One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to train it.Obedience training doesn't solve all behavior problems，but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem.Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog.Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.
Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order.When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here，sit，” it is showing obedience and respect for you.It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pack by using extreme measures.You can teach your dog its subordinate role by teaching it to show submission to you.Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge.
Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog.It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable.A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal.
Notes：
①pack n．群?、趕ubordinate adj.從屬的

難度系數：★★★★★
When Jamie Beondik saw a puppy getting beaten with a chain，he tried to help.What he got in return was a beating of his own and he had to go to hospital.
The neighbors saw the four-month-old black dog named Yomba Wednesday morning being beaten，choked and dragged on a chain by a man on a bike.
Jamie decided to get involved，telling the man to stop hurting Tomba.
“He started swinging the chain around in the air and I said ‘OK.Well，I'm going to call the police.’ And that's when he hit me with the chain，” said Jamie.
He got hit in the legs and then the man and the dog ran off.
Twenty minutes later，the man came back and attacked Jamie with a slingshot before throwing a rock at him，hitting him in the back.
Jamie now has to use the wall to steady himself and his hands won't stop shaking，but he expects to be OK.
Despite his injuries，he has no regrets.Jamie says he'd do it all again.
“He was hurting the dog.I have had a dog for 13 years that looked just like Tomba.The dog was crying for help.I just wanted him to let the dog go.I didn't think he'd beat me，”
said Jamie.
The police arrested the suspect，who would face at least one charge of assault.
Tomba apparently was not seriously injured.
“That's all that's important.The dog's okay and he's in prison，” said Jamie.

slingshot n．彈弓 ②assault n．毆打

維B 任務型閱讀
請認真閱讀下面短文，并根據所讀內容在文章后表格中的單詞空格里填入一個最恰當的單詞。注意：每個空格只填一個。
Today we explain some expressions about birds.For example，if something is for the birds，it is worthless or not very interesting.Someone who eats like a bird eats very little.And a bird's eye view is a general look at an area from above.
Did you know that if you tell a young person about the birds and the bees you are explaining about sex and birth？Have you ever observed that birds of a feather flock together？In other words，people who are similar become friends or do things together.Here is some good advice：a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.This means you should not risk losing something you have by trying to get more of something you do not have.
Sometimes I can do two things by performing only one action.This is called killing two birds with one stone.But I would never really kill any birds.I love all kinds of animals.This is a real feather in my cap.It is something to be proud of.
Most of the people I work with are early birds.They believe that the early bird catches the worm.They think that a person who gets up early in the morning for work has the best chance of success.Everyone in my office works hard，but some people have had their wings clipped.Their jobs have been limited.This is because the office is organized by the pecking order.People with more years of experience are given more responsibility.
Some bird expressions are about crows，chickens and ducks.For example，when I am driving，I always travel as the crow flies.I go the directest way.Anyone who eats crow has to admit a mistake.
Now let's talk about my sister.She is not very young.She is no spring chicken.She will work any job for chicken feed—a small amount of money.She is easily frightened.For example，she is too chicken-livered to walk down a dark street alone at night.Often she will chicken out—she will not go out alone at night.
My sister was an ugly duckling.She looked strange when she was a child，but she grew up to be a beautiful woman.Sometimes she thinks too much about having something in the future before she really has it.She counts her chickens before they are hatched.Sometimes her chickens come home to roost.That means her actions or words cause trouble for her.However，my sister does not worry about what people say about her.Criticism falls off her like water off a duck's back.
Politicians are sometimes considered lame ducks after losing an election.They have little time left in office and not much power.Congress holds a lame duck session after an election.Important laws are not passed during this period.
