Let me tell you my story.

Being blind, deaf, unable to walk, or use your hands easily is something that most people cannot imagine.
聋哑人、残疾人,这些都是绝大部分人无法想象的。
But there are many people who face these challenges, and I am one of them.
但是许多人都面临着这样的挑战,我就是其中之一。
Because I can't use my arms or legs well, normal things like answering the telephone, opening and shutting doors, or carrying things have always been difficult for me.
因为我无法正常使用我的胳臂或腿,像接电话,开关门,或是拿东西这样的事情对于我来说都非常困难。
Then one day last year, a friend of mine said that she would like to help me out.
去年的一天,我的一位朋友说她能够帮助我。
She said she would talk to "Animal Helpers" to see if it would be possible for me to get a specially trained dog.

She also thought a dog might cheer me up.
她还说小狗会让我高兴起来。
I told her that I love animals, and that I'd love to have a dog.
我告诉她说我喜欢动物,我也想有一只小狗。
After six months of training with a dog at "Animal Helpers", I was able to bring him home.
我与小狗在“动物帮助组织”经过了6各月的培训,之后我把它带回了家。
My dog's name is "Lucky" - a good name for him because I feel very lucky to have him.
我小狗的名字叫“幸运”,我认为把他带回家是一次幸运。
You see, I'm only able to have a "dog-helper" because of your kind donation!

How does Lucky help me, you might ask?
你会问,幸运是如何帮助我的?
Well, he has been trained to understand different instructions.
人们把他训练成能够明白多种口令的小狗。
For example, I say, "Lucky! Fetch my book," and he does it at once.
例如,我说,幸运,去拿我的书,他马上就去做。
He is very clever, and understands many English words, even some difficult ones like "upstairs".
他非常聪明,明白许多英文单词,他还明白许多难单词,例如“楼上”。
Lucky is an amazing dog.
幸运真是一条神奇的狗。
I'll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me too one day.
如果你喜欢的话,我会给你一张他的照片,我也可以给你展示他是怎么帮助我的。
And so I thank you again for supporting "Animal Helpers".
