    People in Washington usually have to work more than 8 hours each day, but dog owners there hate to leave their dogs alone every workday. So they take their dogs to a dog day care center. There the dogs play with other dogs and the workers. They also play with toys and they can rest in comfort.

    Rebecca was a successful worker at a big company but she didn't find her job very satisfying. Her working hours kept getting longer and longer. She felt very      about leaving her two dogs inside the house for a long time. She knew that many dog owners in Washington were like her .She felt they would be interested in a day—care centre for dogs. So in 1998, Rebecca left her company and opened Dog Ma near the United States Capital Building.

    Usually, about 30 dogs are at Dog Ma every day. About 25% of them are younger than one year old. A day at Dog Ma costs a dog owner about 25 dollars

    Dog Ma also has other services. Dogs can stay overnight(过夜) when their owners go out of town workers at Dog Ma will wash the dogs and cut their fur and nails. Dog Ma also provides dog training, it is really helpful to dog owners.

    The Wildlife Park has lots different birds. Some are local birds in Australia and they can only be found there. There (be) over 600 animals there, including kangaroos, koalas and crocodiles. They (keep )in the natural environment.

    We first spent some time with the kangaroos. We were allowed (touch)and feed them. It was exciting for me to get so close to (they).Also the koalas looked very lovely. I knew I couldn't carry them, so I took a photo with one. It was one of (wonderful)photos of my holiday in Sydney

    The Wildlife Park has plenty of freshwater saltwater crocodiles. Some of them are really big with huge(tooth)! I was so scared of them. There was also a bird show. The keepers showed us different species they had. I saw old parrot which could talk

    It made a great (impress)on me.

    I enjoyed the trip very much.
