题目内容:
When Jenny Brown, 10, developed bone cancer, her right leg below the knee was cut off to save her life. During the treatment, Jenny had a cat named Boogie, which seldom left her side as she got used to life with a prosthetic(义肢) leg. “My relationship with Boogie showed me animals think, feel, and suffer as we do,” says Jenny, now 44.
In 1994, Jenny graduated from college and began her film career in television. She also volunteered for animal rights groups. In 2002, having learned about some shocking mistreatment of farm animals, she knew she needed to help them. A year later, Jenny gave up her job to work as an animal caregiver at Farm Sanctuary(农场动物庇护所).
The next year, she opened the Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, a nonprofit organization aiming to rescue farm animals and help them recover. It gives tours of the farm from April to October and asks for volunteers and support through www.woodstockfarm.sanctuary.org. The farm website describe the backstory and the character of each of the animals living there.
In September, 2016, the sanctuary was moved to a new farm, which has an equipped kitchen, a dining hall and other buildings in High Falls, New York. The new place has allowed her team of 17 to host vegan(素食的) cooking classes and a kids’ camp.
“People love spending time with the animals.” says Jenny. “There’s a magic that happens here.”
1.What lesson did Jenny learn from Boogie?
2.When did Jenny start the Woodstock Farm Sanctuary?
3.How can people find the backstory of animals on the farm?
