But there are many people who face these challenges, and I am one of them.

Because I can't use my arms or legs well, normal things like answering the telephone, opening and shutting doors, or carrying things have always been difficult for me.
因?yàn)槲覠o法正常使用我的胳臂或腿,像接電話,開關(guān)門,或是拿東西這樣的事情對于我來說都非常困難。
Then one day last year, a friend of mine said that she would like to help me out.

After six months of training with a dog at "Animal Helpers", I was able to bring him home.
我與小狗在“動(dòng)物幫助組織”經(jīng)過了6各月的培訓(xùn),之后我把它帶回了家。
My dog's name is "Lucky" - a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him.

He is very clever, and understands many English words, even some difficult ones like "upstairs".
他非常聰明,明白許多英文單詞,他還明白許多難單詞,例如“樓上”。
Lucky is an amazing dog.
幸運(yùn)真是一條神奇的狗。
I'll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me too one day.
