There are 10 errors altogether in the following passage. The errors are: missing words, unnecessary words and wrong words. Please correct them as follows: for a missing word, mark its position with a symbol "^" and write it; for an unnecessary word, cross it out with the symbol "√"; for a wrong word, underline it and write the correct word. An example of how to correct the error is provided below. For example: One of my favourite writers are Charlotte Brontë. She was born in the early nineteenth century when women had far fewer opportunities ^ they have now. She lived in a small village in Yorkshire and she took a great pleasure in walking on the moors near her home. If one is asked to think about rescue dogs, the ones likely to come to mind are St Bernards with brandy kegs around their necks dig people out of avalanches in the Alps, earthquake dogs sent to Turkey and Greece in recent years, and of course the guide dogs for blind. There is a growing body of evidence and opinion that the power of dogs' noses is as yet underexploit, and that the acute sense of smell of an ordinary hound can be put to good use than finding lost bones: it could be applied to diagnose cancer and other serious diseases. This first came to the attention of the medical profession in 1989, where one page of a medical journal described the case of a woman whose dog's repeated sniffing at a mole on her leg had led her to seek medical advice: it was diagnosed as a malignant tumour. The dog had shown no interests in other moles on her owner's body, but spent several minutes a day sniffing the malignant mole. Eventually the dog tried to bite off the mole, which was the point at which her owner went to the doctor. In the view of the doctors writing to the magazine, the possible use of animals with high developed sensory abilities in cancer diagnosis was worth investigation; surgeon John Church began doing further research and discovered other cases of dogs which had detected cancerous growths and saved their owners' lives. There is another one type of patient to whom dogs have proved invaluable: epileptics. They can reduce the frequency of epileptic seizures by 40 percent in those who suffer from them, not only because the presence of the friendly animal reduces the patient's stress, but because a trained dog has the intuition to sense a potential attack and can give warning up to forty minutes after a seizure or blackout occurs. It fetches the medication and howls until its owner takes it. Research has proved that having a dog improve the quality and duration of human lives by reducing stress through the act of stroking and by providing an incentive for daily exercise and fresh air.
