Cold weather can be hard on pets , just like it can be hard on people . Sometimes owners forget that their pets are just as used to the warm shelter(住所) as they are . Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time , thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors . This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe .

Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad . If you have to take them out , stay outside with them . When you’re cold enough to go inside , they probably are too . If you must leave them outside for a long time , make sure they have a warm , solid shelter against the wind , thick bedding , and plenty of non--frozen water.

If left alone outside , dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter . They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere . Watch them closely when they are left outdoors , and provide them with shelter of good quality . Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink . Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside , which may contain something unhealthy for them.

B

You may think that sailing is a difficult sport ,but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong . But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.

First , you must ask yourself , “Where is the wind coming from? Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side ? ” You must think about this all the time on the boat . The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.

Let’s start with the wind blowing from behind . This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction . Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat . It should be at a 90 angle (角度) to the boat . Then it will catch the wind best.

If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case , you must keep the sail half way outside the boat . It should be at a 45 angle to the boat . It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind , but it shouldn’t flap (摆动) . It shouldn’t look like a flag on a flagpole . If it is flapping , it is probably out too far , and the boat will slow down.

Sailing into the wind is not possible . If you try , the sail will flap and the boat will stop . You may want to go in that direction . It is possible , but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another . This is called tacking . When you are tacking , you must always keep the sail inside the boat.

49.What should you consider first while sailing

A.Sailors’ streng
