Another misunderstanding is that greyhounds must be aggressive（好斗的）because they are big in size. In fact greyhounds love people and are gentle with children.Greyhounds can live for 12 14 years but usually only race for two or three years, and after that they make great pets. They dont need a lot of space, don t make a lot of noise, and don t eat a lot for their size.Normally , greyhounds can be as tall as 90 cm.

Though I didnt tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a walk in the yard.It was a lovely spring day .We could see dandelions(蒲公英)popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. “I think I am going to dig up all these weeds,” she said. “From now on, well have only roses in this garden.”“But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautifuleven dandelions!”My mother looked at me seriously. “ Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesnt it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. “And that is true of people, too,” she added.When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth. “But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give this to you,” she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.33The girl did not play the role of the princess mainly because .
