Americans will long remember President Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States.

At the age of 19, Abraham Lincoln took a boat down the Ohio River to New Orleans. There Lincoln saw for the first time slaves being sold in the marketplace. At that time, Lincoln made up his mind to work to end slavery for the rest of his life.

In 1886, Lincoln became a lawyer and was famous for being hard-working and honest. He believed that the US stood for freedom for all. He wanted to become a senator(参议员). In 1858, Lincoln debated against Stephen Douglas who was also a candidate for the Senate from Illinois.

Because of the Lincoln-Douglas debates, Lincoln became known across the country. Then he decided to run for the presidency in 1860. At last he ran against Stephen Douglas and two other candidates.

Lincoln took the oath（誓言)of office to become president of the United States on March 4, 1861. It was a difficult time to be president. Many southern states did not agree with Lincoln about canceling slavery, and declared(宣布）that they were no longer part o:the US. The famous Civil War began in April, 1861.

Lincoln's Union Army fought the Southern Confederate Armies. Many soldiers were killed in the battles. One of the battles took place in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. In 186s, a ceremony was held to memorize the dead on the Gettysburg battlefield. Lincoln made a famous speech known as the Gettysburg Address.

Unfortunately, Lincoln was shot while watching a play at Ford's Theatre and passed away on the morning of April 15, 1865.

Dog owners have a certain bond, almost a secret language that says I understand how much you love this animal, and I know that it will break your heart when you lose them.

Over the years, friends had warned me that the decision to let a cherished pet go was one of the most difficult they had ever made. At the time, I would nod and agree and move on with my day. As my dog got older, however, this reality neared for me.

We were definitely not 'dog people' when, years ago, we got a call from a friend that their dog needed a home. The dog's needs were simple: It must go to a house with kids, where it will be the only pet and loved unconditionally. We moved ahead with the adoption(领养) and never looked back.

We called her Coco, and the poor thing had rarely been outside of an apartment or walked much farther than a few hundred meters from her home before she came to live with us. She joined an active family, and her life changed in an instant. She may have wanted to go home during her first hike, but she soon became an enthusiastic adventure buddy. I think she was happiest when spending time with our children when she joined the family. Coco went everywhere with us. When friends teased (取笑) us that we treated Cocoas a human child, we'd reply that she was sometimes the best-behaved child.

As Coco aged, she walked less, ate less and indicated that her body was giving out.

After a weekend of seeing her struggling to breathe and watching the spark go out of her eyes, we knew that it was time to visit the vet.

The toughest part of life is that you can love people (and pets) with all your heart, and you can lose them long before you are ready to let go. Nothing lives forever. I don't know why dogs' lives aren't nearly as long as humans', but I do know that we will live on, and there will be a hole in our hearts where they used to live.

That last weekend was so hard on all of us, trying to thank this sweet dog for 15 years of companionship, company and love. She left the world like she had lived: loving us and being loved right back.
