Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don't make unnecessary noise, especially at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet.

Which do you think is cleverer, a dog or a pig? Do you like keeping a pig as a pet? Many people think that pigs are dirty and slow to learn things. But in fact they are wrong.
A report says that pigs are smarter than either your cat or dog, and they are the fourth cleverest animals on the earth. Yet few people know very much about these misunderstood(被误解的) animals. Do you agree? Here's a fact about this.
Matthew Bell is a young man from New Zealand. He likes sports and pets. When the weather gets warmer, he always goes surfing. But he is not alone. There is a pig playing with him. The pig is Zorro. He is only three months old. He has been surfing with his owner since he was just 3 weeks old. He likes playing with people. When people touch his body, hair or tail, he is always happy.
In March, 2013 there was a video about Zorro who is surfing on the Internet. Soon Pig Zorro became one of the most popular pigs in the world.
