As a beginning writer, I was happy to be on my way, writing and learning as much as I could. With two little kids underfoot, as well as working full-time, it was really difficult to make time for writing, but I managed.Readers told me they laughed, cried or were inspired by my articles. But they didnt know what was really going on behind the typewriter. I was not a happy mommy, and found it difficult to enjoy the everyday little things in life. In short, I was not a happy person.I realized I had to make some changes. I started walking every morning. It cleared my head, allowed me time to think, gave me fresh air, and made me feel invigorated(精神煥發(fā)) and healthy. I was eating wisely, and the weight started to go. I started a new job, joined a monthly writing chapter, and was determined to keep up my walking. Finding the balance was sometimes difficult. But I was determined to fit in writing time because it made me happy. Sure I loved to watch the news and have my tea, but that wasnt what made me truly happy.My own happiness has shown through my family, my job performance and my attitude towards challenging situations. I again have readers telling me the effect my writing has had on them, with some able to get on with their own writing because of my articles.It was up to me to make it happen my own happiness.

He also works on movies and TV shows with all kinds of animals, including cats, pigs, sheep, snakes and rats. His retired (退役的) actors, including 30 dogs that have acted in shows such as “Annie” and “Oliver!” live with him and his wife on a farm in Connecticut.Berlonis main playmates as a kid were his dog, cat and rabbit, but he says he never thought he would bee a professional (職業(yè)的) animal trainer.

Shelters take in a lot of animals so many that some shelters kill pets that arent quickly adopted. “I didnt know that animals were killed,” says Berloni, if a dog couldnt be adopted quickly it was supposed to be put down.The dog, which Berloni named Sandy, turned out to be a perfect fit for the show after a little training. The pair learned from each other, with Berloni being better and better as a trainer. Sandy showed in almost all of the shows 2,377 Broadway performances and enjoyed retirement on Berlonis farm when the productions first Broadway run ended in 1983.Since then, Berloni has made a point of finding all his dogs at shelters. Nessa is one of his dogs who plays Toto in “The Wizard of Oz”. After about a year of working together, Berloni and Nessa are like old friends. Shes happy to lie on his leg, even when shes not performing. Nessa gets prizes in return for performing, but “Love is the big motivator (動(dòng)力),” Berloni says.25. What do we know about Berloni?A.

I went back inside and found him, safe but very frightened.”Mrs. Woo Mei Fong said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children. “There was no time to take anything,” she said, “A few minutes later, the roof came down.”Soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area and the welfare department(福利機(jī)構(gòu)) brought them food, clothes and shelter.28.
