Not infrequently you will come across a lady or a gentleman who walk with their dogs in the street. In the neighborhood, the elderly and children are seen in the evening playing with dogs. Why does keeping pets become more prevalent now? 　　There is a definite link between the rise in the number of people keeping pets and the rise in peoples standard of living. For the purchase, the health care, and the feeding of a pet will cost much money. Second, indifference creates a need to keep pets. With the quickening pace of modern life and the fierce competition of society, more and more people feel a sense of indifference, brought on by a lack of normal communication in the family and an absence of social interaction in the neighborhood. And pets, the most intelligent and understanding animal, can best fill the void. The rise in the aging population and the one child family is also responsible. As young adults get married and move out, the aged parents have to live alone. Even if they live together with thier married children, they feel lonely during the days. No doubt, a pet is a wonderful antidote to boredom and loneliness. Pets provide companionship not only to the old but to the child. They bring much amusement and joy to the only child in the family. 　　For these reasons, the number of people keeping pets is steadily growing, even it costs much time and money. One day I met an old woman taking a dog for a walk in the neighborhood. She told me:“it is my dog that sustains me in these years. Without her, I would have died earlier.” 　　思路拓展　　在现代社会中，尤其在城市生活中，饲养宠物的现象值得我们注意。不少人投入了大量的精力去照顾其心爱的动物。图画的作者并不是要我们去洞察宠物的多少，而是要表达更加深层的内涵，即由于生活方式的改变，人们之间亲近的情感变得疏远，继而移情于动物身上。　　就这一议题可以从多个角度展开，范文主要从宠物的功能、人类情感寄托等角度入手。文章所强调的重要概念为“宠物”、“领导”、“情感”等。　　注意如果出现“现代生活方式变迁”、“人际关系”、“人际沟通”等话题可以模仿本文的思路写作。更多信息请访问：新浪考研频道
