I was taught that lesson by my pets. I have two pets: Honey and Yoda. Honey is a 11-year-old black dog, and Yoda is a 10-month-old cat with big ears. Yoda always wants to play. When Honey and Yoda met for the first time, they didnt get on with each other. Honey had never liked cats. She had been hurt by some before. She didnt like Yoda. If Yoda came into a room where Honey was, Honey would leave or hide under a table. Honey could kill Yoda by sitting on her! But that didnt stop her being afraid of Yoda. Yoda, too, was afraid of Honey because of her size. And she would often hiss (叫声) at Honey. After a few months, however, Honey and Yoda started to play with each other. And soon they were good friends. Yoda stopped hissing at Honey. And Honey stopped running away from Yoda. Honey and Yoda now greatly depend on each other, and they always get together. Their love for each other has taught me a lot. I hope it will teach you something. 1. What is the passage about? _ 2. Who is Honey and who is Yoda? _ 3.
