M: Mary, do you have a pet?

W: Yes, I have a dog. She’s with my mom now. Why ask?

M: I’m thinking about getting a dog. But I haven’t decided yet.

W: My dog has stayed with me for two years. I’ve never regretted having her. What’s your concern?

M: I heard that it was going to be a lot of work to keep a dog, like walking it every day.

W: It’s true. But dogs give you a lot of love and fun. They’re worth all the work.

考生翻译：

Is it necessary to walk the dog every day?

Do you really need to walk the dog every day?

Is it necessary to walk your dog every day?

Is it necessary to take a dog for a walk every day?

电脑回答：In most cases, yes. Going for a walk can provide dogs with more than just a bathroom break. It gives them physical exercise, mental excitement, and a chance to keep watch on the neighborhood. Actually, I think dog walking benefits dog owners, too. Otherwise, a person as lazy as me wouldn’t get any physical exercise.

How long do you spend walking a dog every day?

How much time do you spend in walking the dog every day?

How long do you spend walking the dog every day?

电脑回答：On weekdays, I spend probably an hour walking with my dog in the park nearby. During the weekends, especially on Saturdays, I often take a long walk with my dog in the forest and we usually stay there for half a day. She enjoys chasing small animals in the forest.

3. 提问：你能给我一些关于遛狗的建议吗？

考生翻译：

Can you give me some tips on walking a dog?

Can you give me some advice on walking a dog?

Can you give me some suggestions on walking a dog?

Can you give me some ideas on walking a dog?

电脑回答：One thing is very important, that is, to teach your dog to walk with a loose leash. My dog often walks very fast. She used to drag me. And I felt as if she was walking me, not me walking her. Then I began to train her to slow down at my instruction. When I find her walking too fast, I will give a pull on the leash. Once she understands and slows down, I reward her with some food and a gentle pat on the head. Now she cooperates with me nicely during the walk. (“浪哥英语”公众号首发，其他公众号均为转载)

A Perfect Partner

Tom was eager to find a language partner to improve his spoken Spanish. He tried an online learning center that had started its business recently. The center promised that they could find the best language partners for their customers in a few minutes. It happened just like that. Soon Tom was paired up with someone called Mary. He found Mary the very kind of partner he had dreamed of: she shared many hobbies with him; she spoke Spanish beautifully in a sweet voice; she knew a lot about whatever topics Tom brought up. A month passed by. Tom felt he had made huge progress in his spoken Spanish. But there was a pity. Tom had been practicing his Spanish with Mary only by voice chat. He asked to have a video chat but was refused. Tom felt unhappy. He wrote an email to the learning center, asking if the center could arrange a meeting for him to talk with Mary in person. Soon he got a reply from the center. It said that his request was a high praise of their artificial intelligence learning program. Only then did Tom realize that Mary was not a real person.
