試題分析：本文講的是飼養(yǎng)寵物給人的健康帶來的益處。

A decorator has decorated his new house to help his wife in her battle with dementia（癡呆）.

Matt Wood recently moved back to Scotland with his wife Julie, 75, after she was diagnosed （診斷）with the illness. The couple had lived in Berkshire for 30 years but now returned to their home town, Motherwell, Lanarkshire, to be closer to their family.

From the color scheme to the skirting（墻角線）, fireplace to fittings, the decoration of the house exactly copied their former home. He also placed decorations and family photographs in the exact same positions they had in their previous home.

Mr. Wood says, “Recreating the inside has really helped Julie settle in.”

“Caring for Julie and helping her deal with the changes has become my only focus.”
