Shut Up Zoos, Not Animals!
You may think that visiting zoos is harmless fun, but you're wrong because zoos are just prisons(监狱) for animals. The difference is that prisoners get out after a few years! Animals in cages look bored and are boring to look at. After all, we all know what an elephant looks like, we've seen them on TV. So why make animals suffer by shutting them up for our fun? Shut up the zoos instead!

I partly agree. But some zoos aren't there for our fun. I've just got back from Jersey Zoo. It saves rare animals and breeds them. Then it returns the babies to the wild. Not all zoos are the same, you know.

Quite agree! Every time I go to the zoo, I never look into the poor animals' eyes! Kept in the small and smelly cages, they look so lonely and sad. Hope one day they will return to nature, where they can live happily and freely with their families.

Personally, I think zoos are fantastic places for children. They can play with animals and enjoy themselves so much there. Also, they learn a lot about animals. Why shut up?

Mr and Mrs Brown have two children, Mike and Liz. The whole family are all busy, so they often leave notes(便 条 ) for each other. Read these four notes of today and answer the following questions.
①3:30 p. m. To Mike, Mr Tyler rang. No football practice today. I'm going to Donna's house to play and be back at 5:00 p. m. Liz | ②4:00 p. m. To Liz, It's your turn to walk the dog. I have to do my homework after school. Remember to play with Teddy when you get home! Mike |
③6:45 p. m. Has anyone seen my tennis shoes? I'm in my bedroom doing my homework. Mike | ④9:00 p. m. I saw your shoes this morning. They smelt terrible so I put them outside the back door. Good night, dears! Mum |
