На английском языкеПеревод на русский языкMy Favourite AnimalМое любимое животноеI like all kinds of animals and I think that people should treat them better. I’m against any violence towards animals. Speaking about domestic animals, I have several pets at home. It’s my parrot Kesha, my cat Liza and my dog Bobby. Of course, I like all them, since I’ve had them from childhood. However, my favourite animal is dog. I simply adore dogs of various breeds. Mine is a French Bulldog of a black colour with rare white spots. It’s not tall but is fat. It has a funny face with big ears and almost no tail. Bobby is a wonderful dog and a faithful friend. I think it also likes us, because it often shows deep affection. When necessary, Bobby can become rather protective and scare the enemies away. The distinctive feature of this breed is its stubborn nature, so it’s not easy to train such dogs. They require lots of patience and repetition. In my opinion, the dogs’ role in human society is invaluable. Apart from being a good friend, they have always performed the role of a hunter, a herder, a protector, a military or police companion and most importantly a guide for the handicapped people. Some dogs are so intelligent that they are trained to look for criminals or victims of natural disasters. They can easily sniff out explosives or drugs, so the police often consider them to be the best helpers. I was surprised to know that when a police dog dies, it receives a full funeral. Sometimes, when dealing with unpleasant and traitorous people, I think that they should learn a lot from dogs. These animals never betray their friends. They can easily maintain lifelong relations, unlike many humans.

Мне нравятся все виды животных, и я думаю, что люди должны относиться к ним лучше. Я против любого насилия в отношении животных. Говоря о домашних животных, у меня дома есть несколько питомцев. Это мой попугай Кеша, моя кошка Лиза и моя собачка Бобби. Конечно, я их всех люблю, так как они у меня с детства. Тем не менее, мое любимое животное – собака. Я просто обожаю собак различных пород. Моя собака породы Французский бульдог, черного цвета с редкими белыми пятнами. Она не высокая, но упитанная. У нее смешное лицо с большими ушами и у нее почти нет хвоста. Бобби замечательная собака и верный друг. Я думаю, что он тоже нас любит, потому что он часто выказывает глубокую привязанность. При необходимости, Бобби может быть хорошим защитником и прогнать недоброжелателей. Отличительной особенностью этой породы является ее упрямый характер, так что такие собаки нелегко поддаются дрессировке. На это требуется много терпения и тренировок. На мой взгляд, роль у собак в человеческом обществе неоценима. Помимо того, что они хорошие друзья, они всегда исполняли роль охотника, пастуха, защитника, военного или полицейского компаньона и, самое главное, они служили поводырем для людей с ограниченными возможностями. Некоторые собаки настолько умны, что их обучают искать преступников или жертв стихийных бедствий. Они могут легко почуять взрывчатые или наркотические вещества, поэтому полиция часто считает их своими лучшими Я был удивлен узнать, что, когда полицейская собака умирает, ей устраивают полноценные похороны. Иногда, когда я общаюсь с неприятными людьми или предателями, я думаю, что им нужно многому поучиться у собак. Эти животные никогда не предают своих друзей. Они могут легко поддерживать хорошие отношения на протяжении всей жизни, в отличие от многих людей.
