听力每日练习 listen 1965 Keeping pets

2-- Dogs are nice, but they are really energetic, and you need to make sure they get enough exercise every day.

1-- Having a dog would probably be too much work for me, then.

2-- What about cats? They are more independent.

1-- Actually, I was thinking of something a little more exotic. I don't want a common pet like a dog or a cat.

2-- How about a lizard? Are lizards more along the lines of what you were thinking of getting?

1-- Yeah, are they easy to look after?

2-- Yeah, they are pretty low-maintenance; they eat almost anything.

===================================
注解：
 
1.energetic精力充沛的 
2.independent独立的     
3.low-maintenance无须费神(或费力)的  

===================================
译文：

1--我想养只宠物，但我实在拿不定主意该买什么？

2--小狗很可爱呀，不过它们太好动了，最好每天都能带它们去遛遛。

1--那我恐怕没那么多时间养狗了。

2--那养猫吧，猫没那么黏人。

1--实际上我想要一只特别点儿的宠物，不想要猫、狗这些常见的。

2--养只蜥蜴？蜥蜴够特别吧？

1--不错，蜥蜴好养吗？

2--嗯，挺好养的，基本上什么都吃。
