Question

    Since May 1,2015,Beijing started to allow blind people to take guide dogs (導(dǎo)盲犬) onto the subway (地鐵) .How much do you know about guide dogs? What can they do to help blind people?

    Not every dog can become a guide dog. The most common guide dog breeds (品種) are Labrador Retrievers (拉布拉多獵犬) and Golden Retrievers (金毛獵犬) .That’s be?cause they are smart and have a good temper.

    To help blind people,dogs need to learn many skills,such as finding and following a clear road,moving around ob- Stacies (障石導(dǎo)物) ，and stopping when they reach a curb (道牙) beside a road. Of course they should pass tests. They also need to learn an important lesson known as “intelligent disobedience  (智能抗命) ”For example,blind people ask the dog to go forward when crossing a road. But if the dog knows that a car is coming,it will not move until it is safe.

    At about 10 or 12 years old,guide dogs retire (退休). Some of them stay at their owner’s home and become their pets. Others may go back to training schools and live there.

    What can guide dogs do to help blind people?

    ·Follow a direct road,paying no attention to other things such as smells,animals and people.

    ·Keep a steady (穩(wěn)疋白勺) pace and just ahead of the owner.

    ·Stop at all curbs until the handler tells them to move forward.

    ·Stay quiet when the owner is sitting down.

    ·Help the owner to move around buses,subways and other public transportation.
