It is fun being a vet. , every day is different! It all depends on what is wrong with the animals that come in.
At my clinic, I work long days on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays, and short days on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays. Sunday is my day off so I can spend some time with my family.
My clerk opens the door, turns on some music, and makes everyone a cup of tea or coffee. My assistant cleans and feeds the animals. The phones start to ring, and people make appointments. This is a very busy time of day!
At 9 am, pet owners start to arrive with their sick pets. Appointments take up the whole morning.
I don't examine any new sick animals. I use these two hours to have lunch and do all my paperwork.
At 2 pm, I start to see sick animals again. At 5 pm, three students from a local school who love animals arrive to help out. I am always happy to see their smiling faces!
From 5 pm to 7 pm, I continue to see sick animals. Then, at 7 pm we close our doors and the clean-up begins! We tidy the clinic and feed and clean the animals Of course, we also stroke (轻抚) them and give them hugs !Then, we turn off the lights and go home.

The digital(数字的)age has come into our life. In the USA, some teachers think digital search tools(工具)have had a good influence on the American teenagers, but others don't think so. More than 2,000 high school teachers took s survey on the Internet.
75 percent of the teachers agreed the Internet and digital search tools have had a "mostly good" use for their students' research habits and skills. But 87 percent thought that these technologies" make the students not have enough attention." And 64 percent said the technologies "do little to help them in courses."
Judy Buchanan is a director of the National Writing Project. Ms. Buchanan says digital search tools are helping students learn more, and lean faster. Teachers really like these tools because they are ways to make some of learning very exciting. Young people enjoy using these tools. And the goal is to help them do creative work, and not just that kind of copyist(模仿者,抄写员).
But one problem is that many students don't have a good understanding of how to use the digital knowledge well. In other words, they trust too much of the information. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills they need to tell whether the information on the Internet is good or bad.
Another problem is something that might not seem like a problem at all, being able to quickly find information from the Internet. Teachers say the ability of their students to work hard to find out answers is becoming weaker. They say students depend too much on search tools and do not make enough use of printed books.
Besides, many teachers are also worried about the problem that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others, instead of using their own abilities.
