24、   People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal to him. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them individual (个体的); they can paint them, and change them in any way they like. Most house have a garden, even if it is a very small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of the individual.

People usually like to mark their space. Are you sitting now in your home or on a train? Have you marked the space around yourself as your? If you are on the train you may put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you. If you share a flat you may have one corner or chair which is your own.

Once I was travelling on a train to London. I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us.The man on the space on my side of the table at all. I was angry. Maybe he thought that he owned the whole table. I had read a book about non-verbal communication, so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his briefcase! When I did this he stiffened and his eyes nearly popped (瞪出)out of his head. I had invaded (侵犯) his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off his case in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table. Of course, it is possible that he just wanted to be helpful to me!

If you are visiting another country you may feel that you don't have any private space. Hotel rooms look much the same in every country in the world. All day long,you share public spaces with other people. You see the local people in their private spaces and you feel lonely and "outside". Local people can create their private spaces by talking about things you don't know about.And you even feel that they like you to be outside them so that they will enjoy being inside even more! This is one of the difficulties of being a traveler! But if you understand it then it helps you.Haven't you enjoyed being part of a group and "owning" a bit of space?

26、Do you have a pet? Owning a pet is becoming more popular in China these days. And pet owners are now willing to spend more money on their pets than before.

According to a report from Goumin.Com, Chinese people living in cities spent a total of 202.4 billion yuan on their pets in 2019. Most pet owners are people born after 1990. Most of them have incomes（收入）and are well educated.

Pet owners in China are spending more money on pet food and clothing, according to a report from Euromonitor International. Miss Hou, 28, lives in the city of Chengdu. She spent 6,000 yuan on her two cats last year. “I bought cat food from the United States, New Zealand, Japan and Thailand,” Hou said. “If I have time, I also cook for them,” she said.

“An aging society and fewer people having children are among the main reasons why more people are keeping pets,” said Liu Xiaoxia, CEO of Goumin.Com. “Keeping pets has met the emotional（感情的）needs of many people. Almost 60% of pet owners see their animal friends as their own children,” Liu said.

Beating loneliness might be another reason. Many young people are leaving their hometowns to make a living in big cities. “They have a fear of great loneliness and have much pressure（压力）, as they have few friends and face a high cost of living.
