Читать книгу Т3, английский язык, ОГЭ, 100 вариантов - Игорь Николаевич Евтишенков - Страница 3

You are going to give a talk about animals. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and speak for not more than 2 minutes (10–12 sentences).

Remember to say:

– what wild animals live in your region;

– whether it is a good idea to keep a wild animal as a pet, and why;

– why people build zoos in cities and towns;

– what your attitude to zoos is.

You have to talk continuously.

Now I am going to talk about animals.

* You know I live in the region where you can see wild boars, moose, foxes, wolves, hares, black grouse, ducks, and beavers. There are a lot of forests around. So those animals live in the woods and near rivers.

* In my opinion, it is not a good idea to keep a wild animal as a pet. Even if you take it as a little one, it has natural instincts and can react as a wild animal one day. It is simply dangerous. Moreover, you can threaten other people around you in this case.

* I think people build zoos in cities because they cannot see wild animals around anymore. It is a sort of keeping connection with nature and a way to show children how real animals look like. Otherwise, kids can read about them only in books.

* My attitude to zoos is negative. They do not help people become more intelligent and learn more about the animals. On the other hand, they take a lot of resources and space in the cities. Also, the animals in cages suffer, too. Their life has nothing to do with real wilderness. That’s the way it goes.

That’s all I wanted to tell you about animals.
