Answer questions 356 358 on the basis of the following passage.
(1) Greyhound racing is the sixth most popular spectator sport in the United States. (2) Over the
last decade, a growing number of racers have been adopted to live out retirement as household
pets, once there racing career is over.
(3) Many people hesitate to adopt a retired racing greyhound because they think only very old
dogs are available. (4) People also worry that the greyhound will be more nervous and active than
other breeds and will need a large space to run. (5) ___________________
___________________________. (6) In fact, racing greyhounds are put up for adoption at a
young age; even champion racers, who have the longest careers, only work until they are about
three-and-a-half years old. (7) Since greyhounds usually live to be 12 15 years old, their
retirement is much longer than their racing careers. (8) Far from being nervous dogs, greyhounds
have naturally sweet, mild dispositions, and, while they love to run, they are sprinters rather than
distance runners and are sufficiently exercised with a few laps around a fenced-in backyard
everyday.
