British people are working to an older age. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} number of working 70-74-year-olds has doubled in recent years. Around 10% of people in {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (they) early 70s now work. This is the {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(high) figure on record. An important reason {#blank#}4{#/blank#} the British work in their old age is that retirement pensions are becoming more difficult to live on. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(consequence) many older people have to work in order to survive.

    Britain {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (see) great changes in the labor market during the last decade, {#blank#}7{#/blank#}far more people working beyond their retirement age. While there are plenty who enjoy remaining in work, many need to earn extra cash because they can not afford {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(retire) early. Older people need decent(体面地) jobs and pensions so that they can make a proper {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(choose) about whether they remain in work. Now they are deciding on a career change later in life and are starting up their own businesses, {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(devote) to something they may have dreamed of doing for years.

    Taking your pet for a walk should be {#blank#}1{#/blank#}enjoyable experience, not one which leaves your arms {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (pain) after your dog running too far away, reaching the end of the dog leash (狗绳). Some dogs{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (simple) will keep trying to pull {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (them) away from the leash, and {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (depend) on the size of the dog, this can cause much pain to your arms.

    Now there is a tool{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (call) the Dog Trainer which will probably solve these dog walking issues. For $39.95, the special invention is designed to help train your dog {#blank#}7{#/blank#} you go out for walks. The tool is fixed with the leash, and whenever it senses a struggle, it will send a noise which only your dog will be able to hear, thus forcing it {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (realize) that struggling is not worth it!

    The noise becomes{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(loud), based on the force of the struggle, and it has four sound levels. The Dog Trainer is powered by two AAA batteries (电池) and we believe if you have a large dog{#blank#}10{#/blank#}likes to try and escape all the time, then this handy little invention is surely worth the small payment.

    Many of the earth's plants and animals have already{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(die) out, and a hundred species become {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(endanger) every day. If nothing is done, we may find ourselves{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (lonely) on the earth.

    Wild animals live in the{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (forest) which are being destroyed by people. As{#blank#}5{#/blank#} result, the animals are {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(lose) their habitats. Without the trees, the animals are short of food. And many animals are dying out because of pollution.

    I suggest that measures should be taken {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(protect) wildlife. The government should keep people {#blank#}8{#/blank#}destroying forests and shut down the factories {#blank#}9{#/blank#} pollute rivers and air, I think more wildlife reserves should also be {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(build).
