1  I like it because although it is hard work, every day is different! It all depends on what is wrong with the animals that come in.

　　At my clinic(诊所), I work long days on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and short days on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Sunday is my day off so I can spend some time with my family.

　　  2  My clerk opens the door, turns on some music, and makes everyone a cup of tea or coffee. My assistant cleans and feeds the animals. The phones start to ring and people make appointments. This is a very busy time of day!

　　At 9 am, pet owners start to arrive with their sick pets. Appointments take up the whole morning.  3  I don’t examine(检查)any new sick animals. I use these two hours to have lunch and do all my paperwork.

　　At 2 pm. I start to see sick animals again. At 5 pm, three students from a local school l who love animals arrive to help out.  4  I am always happy to see their smiling faces!

　　From 5 pm to 7pm, I continue to see sick animals. Then, at 7 pm, we close our doors and the clean-up begins! We tidy the clinic, and feed and clean the animals. Of course, we also stroke(轻抚)them and give them hugs! Then, we turn off the lights an go home.   5
