In Britain, people have different attitudes to the police. Most people generally them and the job they do-although there are certain people who do not believe that the police
have the power that they do.
What does a policeman actually do? It is not job to describe. After all, a policeman has a number of jobs in
. A policeman often has to control traffic, either
foot in the center of a town, or in a police car on the roads. Indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, his time
up and down main roads and motorways. A traffic policeman has to help keep the traffic moving, stop
motorists and help when there is an accident.
A policeman has to help keep the , too. If there is a fight or some other disturbance, we
the police to come and restore order. And they often have to
situation at great risk to their own
.
We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policeman, he is not a detective, will often have to help
and arrest criminals.
And do we call when there is an emergency-an air crash, a
, a road accident, or a robbery? We call the police.
a policeman has to be
to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the
world.
The police do an absolutely, necessary job, they do it well and I support them, but I do not envy policeman, I do not think that I could
do the job of a policeman.

Lulu is a brave pet in our shelter.
As you know, there are a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly 36 by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We were in a heatwave which had been 37 for three days.
Lulu rushed towards the forest where flames sent out a terrible 38 . I no longer had any hope that Lulu would come 39 to the shelter. In fact, I was waiting for the firemen to announce his 40in the forest, when suddenly, a fireman burst into my shelter and 41 me that my dog Lulu had 42 to save four kittens who were trapped by the flames. According to the fireman, Lulu seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a 43 place. I immediately accompanied the fireman to the forest to 44 the rescued kittens. When we arrived at the 45 of the incident, we found Lulu was not 46 . Then we heard the 47 of a dog came from the forest barking furiously. I 48 it was my dog Lulu. The fireman followed the tracks of the dog until we found him barking 49 by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately50 rescue. Thanks to Lulu, four kittens and a fireman were saved.
That day, I was very 51 of Lulu for his two heroic 52 toward the kittens and the fireman. Lulu showed much compassion（同情）for both animals 53 him and for a human being who was trying to 54 the fire with his colleagues.
This true story of genuine love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, 55 and compassionate. We should love and protect them. One day they could do us a good turn.
