Wow! We’re getting a new Labrador puppy—temporarily. The puppy will be a part of our family, and we’ll spend a lot of time training him. But we won't be able to keep him, no matter how much we want to. That's because we're training him for the Hearing Ear Association.

A hearing ear dog assists a deaf person in much the same way that a seeing eye dog helps a blind person. It alerts its owner to important sounds, like a knock at the door, a morning alarm clock, or a whistling tea kettle.

Before the program places a dog with a deaf owner, the dog spends a year with a host family. That's us! Our first job is to get the puppy accustomed to family life and to teach it basic commands. We’ll teach it to sit and to fetch. Later, we’ll train the puppy in special hearing skills.

A representative of the Hearing Ear Association will deliver the puppy today. It's going to be an educational year for everyone!

A.

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
