1. Many people have a close relationship with their pets. These people
treat their birds, cats, or other animals as members of their family.
In your opinion, are such relationships good?
Observing the relationship between human beings and pets, we
could easily find out that there is a turn of how human beings
treat their pets. In the past times, animals raised by human
beings were used to be taken either as tools or food, seldon
people owned pets,except the ruling and the rich class, because
pets are served for accompaniment, not productive means. With
the progress of industrialization and capitalization, people
become richer, but the emergence of the city also result in the
alienation and indifference between human beings. Human beings
get more lonesome. Therefore, more and more people starts to
raise their own pets. Owning pets turns out to be a kind of fashion
as well as a need to fulfill the mental emptiness. As people treat
their pets more closely, as a member of their family, even as lover,
I think it is a good change. Since animals belong to a part of human
family, it helps to blur the solid boundary exiting between human
beings and animals, and reminds us to revisit the human-centrism in
history. All in all, we should have more positive attitude toward
this new trend. However, the populization of owning pets in the
family raises some issues at stake, such as stray pets and animal
rights, which calls more attention on the new socail phenomenon.
