Gail Mirabella works as a dog trainer for a circus(马戏团). She used to train her dogs to do tricks when she was a kid. Finally, her hobby turned into her job. Several days ago, she talked to Time magazine reporter, Cameron Young, about her love for dogs.
Reporter: Did you always want to be a dog trainer in a circus?
Mirabella: When I was a little kid, I did my first dog show, a kid's dog show. And I took the first place(名次). From then on, I knew I wanted to work with dogs, but who would know I'd be in a circus?
Reporter: Did you have any dogs when growing up?
Mirabella: Of course. I had a white shepherd dog when I was a little baby. And then when he died, we got two family dogs. When I was 14, I got one on my birthday. He was a big shepherd dog and reminded(使想起) me of the white shepherd dog I had when I was a baby.
Reporter: How long does it take to train a dog, one month, half a year or one year?
Mirabella: That depends on the dog. I have thirteen dogs and I let them all play together, but I do a lot of special work with each dog. They know I am their owner because I do all the feeding.
Reporter: If you weren't a dog trainer, what would you be?
Mirabella: A dog. Just joking. I would probably still work with animals.

The first essay(文章) I wrote for my history of English class must be perfect. I kept working on it and I handed it in confidently. I couldn't wait to get my grade back.
Two weeks later, I got my grade: D. The pages were covered in red writing, pointing out errors(错误). There must have been a mistake.
I had a meeting to discuss my grade and arrived 10 minutes early to meet the teacher's assistant(助教). I was ready to show the shining points of my paper. However, she quickly explained to me that the paper failed to make a strong argument(论点). The mark remained(保持不变).
However, I didn't give up. I kept studying hard. Finally, I learned how to write an essay properly.
★. I had no chance when I was young — too many brothers and sisters in our family and too little money. But I never stopped picturing what university would be like. I was in my 40s when I became a part - time university student, and I will be in my 60s before I'm finished. That's my goal(目标).
The first time I walked into a large classroom, I took a seat near the back. The professor(教授) walked in and started talking. I sat in that three - hour class and tried to write down every word. What's it like to be the middle - aged man in a class full of 20 - year - olds? It's strange. But I don't care. For me, it's just learning, for it makes the world a bigger, richer place.
