[?n'kri?s]增加The hospitals don’t have enough workers to take care of 照顾the animals. And they also need more money. Yesterday, they asked the public [?p?bl?k]公众for help: “Please donate [d???ne?t] 捐赠money, food, medicines or your time. If you are looking for a pet, please get one from our hospitals. Your help can make a big difference.”
