The biggest tax for most Americans is the incomes tax. The personal income tax is called a “progressive tax”, because it takes more from those who earn(挣钱) most. For example, a person who earns about 3,500 a year, will pay a tax of only about 3.5% of earning, but if the same person earned 85,000 a year, he would pay an income tax of 35%. Over years the incomes tax has become more and more difficult for people to understand. Almost one half of all Americans now have to pay experts to prepare their tax reports. In fact, preparing taxes and giving tax have become a big industry(工业) in America.（ ）1.

These are their pets. People love these pets and regard them as their good friends. Before they keep them at their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them needles so that they wont carry disease(疾病). They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit peoples homes, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animals in Canada. They have a law against killing wild(野生的) animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished(处罚). If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family tie is not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own career(生涯). Then the seniors(老人) will feel lonely.

New medicines and machines are developing every day to extend life. However, some people , including some doctors, are not in favor of these life extending measures, and they say that people should have the right（权利）to die when they want. They say that the quality of life is as important as life itself, and that people should not be forced to go on living when conditions of life have become unbearable . They say that people should be allowed to die with dignity（尊严）and to decide when they want to die. Others dont agree and say that life under any conditions is better than death and that the duty of doctors is always to extend life as long as possible.
