M: Hi, Sam. I want to buy a pet. Do you have any ideas?

S: You really should go to Rachel's pet store.

M: why? anything special there?

S: it's more than special. You can find as many kinds of animals as you can put a name to and more.

M: Oh, really? are there any snakes?

S: snakes? there are even rodents 1 and monkeys! it's a world of exotic pets.

M: that's terrific. I can't wait to check it out.

S: Hang on. are you sure you want to keep a non-traditional pet?

M: why not? it's so cool.

S: but it will pose a risk to your health.

M: pardon?

S: i mean, most reptiles 2 carry some harmful bacteria. they are likely to cause immune system problems.

M: well, I didn't realize that.

S: I don't believe it's a good choice to keep those pets, especially for families with young children.

M: oh, I should have thought of my brother's baby girl. Maybe I'll just have a dog instead of an exotic pet.

S: yes, good luck, Maria.

你好,山姆.我想买一只宠物,你有什么建议吗?

你应该去拉切尔的宠物店看看.

为什么啊?这家店很特别吗?

何止是特别啊?凡是你能叫出名字的动物,店里都有!

真的吗?有蛇吗?

蛇?那里连锯齿动物和猴子都有!

太棒了!我要去转转.

等等,你确定你要养非传统宠物?

有什么不好呢?多酷啊.

可是它会威胁你的健康?

你说什么?

我的意思是大多数爬行动物都携带有害病菌,有可能引起免疫系统疾病,

哦,这个我倒没想过.

我觉得养这种宠物是不明智的,要是家里有小孩的话,就更不好了.

哦,我都忘了我哥的小女儿了.我还是养条狗吧,外来宠物就算了.

祝你好运,玛利亚!
