[2016·唐山摸底]All my life I had wanted a dog. I had two cats that I adoredW1 like children, but I still wanted the company of a dog. Then unfortunatelyW2 I lost my cats. Soon came another shock that my husband left me forever because ofP1 lung cancer. I felt I had just lost everything that ever mattered to me.
I voiced these feelings to a friend, who took me to a pet store. The store was holding an adoptionW3 day with shelters. I looked at and held several puppies (小狗), wondering which to choose. Then I met Maggie. She looked at me with the saddest eyes I had ever seen, then laid her head on my shoulder and slept. I immediately decided to save her!
Maggie adjustedW4 well. I, however, was still adjusting. One night, thoughts of losing everything rushed through my head again. So depressed was I that I felt the only solution was to end my life.S With a bottle of medicine in one hand and Maggie on my lap, I took the pills. Through my tear－filled eyes I looked down at Maggie to tell her I was sorry. The look on her face I will never be able to explainW5. It's as if her eyes said, “Don't leave me; I need you just as you needed me.” It waI sat on the couch holding Maggie and thanking her for saving me.
Since that night I have had a love for her that I never knew possible. She never leaves my side when I am at home. She has taught me to smile and laugh. Together with Maggie, I feel I can get throughP2 anything.
