Lots of people love to keep pets, but they don’t know how to communicate with their pets. Are you one of the pet keepers? If your answer is “yes”, here are some suggestions for you.

1.Talk with your pet.

Although your pet may not exactly understand your words, he can at least pick up on the tone of your words and your body language when you talk to him. For example, if you speak with him in a stern voice, he might pick up on the fact that you are unhappy with his behavior.

2.Use non-verbal(非语言的) communication.

Your non-verbal communication is just as important as verbal communication. Non-verbal communication is often used in training your pet to do a certain activity. For example, if you are sitting on your horse, you would use your legs and hands to command your horse to turn around. When you teach your dog to sit, you would actually combine verbal and non-verbal communication (hand signals) to give him the ‘sit’ command.

3.Avoid punishing your pet.

Punishing your pet is never a good idea. Punishment can make your pet fearful of you and possibly lose trust and respect that he has for you. What’s more, some pets, like cats, do not necessarily make the connection between your punishment and the behavior you are punishing them for.

1.The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “stern” in this passage is probably“________”.

A.和善的 B.严厉的 C.柔和的 D.耐心的

2.You can use your________to command your horse to turn around.

A.legs and hands B.arms and feet C.leg and feet D.arms and hands

3.What can we know from the passage?

A.The writer tells us four suggestions in the passage.

B.The writer doesn’t mention “horse” in the passage.

C.The writer thinks it necessary to punish pets.

D.Your pet cat doesn’t understand why you punish him.

4.In which part of a magazine can we read the passage?

A.Animal World. B.Animal Stories. C.Body Languages. D.Body Parts.

5.The best title of the passage may be “________”.

A.How to Talk with Pets B.How to Take Care of Pets

C.How to Communicate with Pets D.How to Train Dogs and Cats
