48、 As teenagers, we should help the poor. That is what teachers and parents always tell us to do. Whats more, keeping the little dog doesnt cost much. It is not very difficult for Bens family to do so. Last but not least, Ben will have a new good friend to get on with so that he will not feel lonely.
49、I agree with Bens parents. The little dog lives outside, so there can be germs and virus in its body. That is not good for Bens families health. Besides, the little dog is new in this family, so it may not be friendly to them and is hard to get on with. Whats more, Ben and his family need to go to school or work. They dont have time to look after the dog.
