I personally can’t imagine my life without a dog. As a dog owner, a dog’s running towards you, snuggling(依偎) up to you or pleasantly barking are all really great feelings. Moreover, you have something that always listens to you and loves you. Because of these facts dogs are the best and the most beautiful creatures for me. Dogs aren’t only pets. They can often help people. Firstly, like sheepdogs, they really help with shepherding. Secondly, like sniffer dogs(嗅探犬), they can be trained to search for hard drugs. And lastly, I want to talk about guide-dogs which are actually a great miracle for blind people. These dogs can deal with a lot of issues and problems in a blind person’s life and they are perfect mediators between healthy people and sightless ones. They ensure that handicapped people can live normal lives and this is the best thing that they can do. Their training for this role, however, is not easy. First they are sent to a normal family and then the dogs are specially trained. They have to learn perhaps 50 different tasks or disciplines. And then, when they are fully trained, they are sent to a new family where they try to make life as normal as possible for their owners. The price of training the dogs is a very high sum. But blind people can usually get the monetary support from some sponsors or some donations from organizations which raise money especially for them. You can help too because in many supermarkets and other shops there are very often places where you can donate. And it’s not just about making a big donation; small amounts help too. A perfect guide-dog must be trained ____ to search for thieves B. by the blind from young C. to learn certain skills D. to finish over 50 different tasks The underlined word in the second paragraph means____ 药品
