It tells a touching story through the eyes of a dog named Enzo. Enzo lives with his owner Denny, a race car driver, and experiences the ups and downs of life with him. He sees Denny’s hard work and the loss of his wife. The book shows the heartwarming relationship between Enzo and Denny. Denny sees Enzo as a close friend and family member. He tells him his secret of racing in the rain. Enzo is loyal (忠诚的) to his owner. He always stands by Denny in his own way. Their special relationship moved me a lot. As I read, I found that the art of racing in the rain is a metaphor (比喻). When it “rains” in life, problems may come, just like how a car skids (打滑) during a race. What can we do? Denny, a master (大师) of racing in the rain, taught us that we should be brave to face them instead of running away. The Art of Racing in the Rain is a book about love and life. It touched (使……感动) me and taught me a lot. 65. Is Garth Stein the car racer in the story “The Art of Racing in the Rain”? ________________________________ 66.

I found him through Douyin and here is our talk. Me: What do pet sitters need to do? Cao: I need to feed pets and play with them. I also do other things if pet owners ask me to, such as bathing (给……洗澡) the pets and cutting their nails (指甲). Me: What interesting experiences do pet sitters have? Cao: I once cared for a dog. It was very sensitive (敏感) to sounds. It would look around whenever someone visited, making sure everything was OK. This made me know that each pet has its own character.

Me: How do pet sitters make sure the pet owners’ homes are safe when they take care of pets there? Cao: When pet sitters come to take care of pets at the pet owners’ homes, the owners may worry about keeping the house safe. So I always ask pet owners to put away (收起来) their valuable (值钱的) things and maybe even set up (设置) cameras for safety. This way, we can make sure their places are safe, and if anything goes missing, we’ll have proof (证据) to help deal with the problem. Me: What do you think of the future of being a pet sitter? Cao: Right now, pet sitters don’t always make stable (稳定的) money. You need to find customers. But I feel good about this job’s future. People are starting to care more about their pets’ health and happiness. I believe that there will be more and more pet sitters. 52. What do pet sitters usually do according to Cao Ting? a.

It tells a touching story through the eyes of a dog named Enzo. Enzo lives with his owner Denny, a race car driver, and experiences the ups and downs of life with him. He sees Denny’s hard work and the loss of his wife. The book shows the heartwarming relationship between Enzo and Denny. Denny sees Enzo as a close friend and family member. He tells him his secret of racing in the rain. Enzo is loyal (忠诚的) to his owner. He always stands by Denny in his own way. Their special relationship moved me a lot. As I read, I found that the art of racing in the rain is a metaphor (比喻). When it “rains” in life, problems may come, just like how a car skids (打滑) during a race. What can we do? Denny, a master (大师) of racing in the rain, taught us that we should be brave to face them instead of running away. The Art of Racing in the Rain is a book about love and life. It touched (使……感动) me and taught me a lot. 65. Is Garth Stein the car racer in the story “The Art of Racing in the Rain”? ________________________________ 66.
