I’ll Send You a Photo of Lucky
Dear Miss Li,
I’d like to thank you for giving money to Animal Helpers. I’m sure you know that this group was set up to help disabled people like me. You helped to make it possible for me to have Lucky. Lucky makes a big difference to my life. Let me tell you my story.
What would it be like to be blind or deaf Or imagine you can’t walk or use your hands easily. Most people would never think about this, but many people have these difficulties. I can’t use my arms or legs well, so normal things like answering the telephone, opening and closing doors, or carrying things are difficult for me.
Then one day last year, a friend of mine helped
me out. She talked to Animal Helpers about getting me a special trained dog. She also thought a dog might cheer me up. I love animals and I was excited about the idea of having a dog.
After six months of training with a dog at Animal Helpers, I was able to bring him home. My dog’s name is Lucky — a good name for him because I
feel very lucky to have him. You see, I’m only able to have a “dog helper” because of your kindness! Lucky is very clever and understands many English words. He can understand me when I give him orders. For example, I say, “Lucky! Get my book,” and he does it at once.
Lucky is a fantastic dog. I’ll send you a photo of him if you like, and I could show you how he helps me. Thank you again for changing my life.
Best wishes,
Ben Smith

Language points
2. Then one day last year, a friend of mine helped
me out.
help out 意为 “使某人脱离困境”可分开使用。
Nobody helped me out when I lost my job.
当我失业的时候没有人帮助我。
It was unexpected but I could help out if the price was right, I thought.
这有点出乎意料，但我想如果价格合适的话我可以帮忙一下。
3. I was excited about the idea of having a dog.
be excited about意为“对……感到兴奋”，主语通常是人；而exciting意为“令人感到兴奋的”，主语通常是物或事件。其他类似的词： surprising / surprised; interesting / interested等也是这样区分的。如：
He is very interested in this interesting book.
他对这本有趣的书很感兴趣。
4. You see, I’m only able to have a “dog-helper” because of your kindness!
(1)此句中的be able to 意为“能够做……的事”， 可用can替换，主语为物时一般都使用can, can没有将来时和完成时，也不能用于其他助动词后面，所以常用be able to do 来替换。
(2) because of 是介词短语，表原因，后面接名词或代词宾语。because 是连词，后常接从句。
