[HS] – Are there any differences between pet animals and wild animals?

PASSAGE READING

Please read aloud the following passage. I will check your pronunciation as you read.

READ

Pets and Wild Animals

The most common pets around the world are dogs and cats. On the other hand, some people like to take care of wild animals such as bears, snakes, and lions. Keeping wild animals as pets is not safe both for animals and owners. It is important for wild animals to live in their natural home because keeping them as pets could be stressful for them. They can also be dangerous for humans because most wild animals are meat-eaters. On the other hand, pets like dogs, cats, and hamsters need humans to live. They need people to provide their basic needs such as food and shelter.

[HS] – Which animal is the smartest on the Earth?

PASSAGE READING

Please read aloud the following passage. I will check your pronunciation as you read.

READ

Smartest animal on the planet

Chimpanzees are one of the four kinds of great apes. Unlike monkeys, chimpanzees are larger and they do not have tails. Also, their brains are larger and more developed than that of monkeys. Other than the size of their brain, there are things that prove chimpanzees’ intelligence. According to some researchers, chimpanzees can perform about the same as humans when it comes to memory tests. On certain memory tests, chimpanzees can do a lot better than humans. They are good when it comes to playing games. They can also make and use tools that can be used in eating. There are a lot of intelligent animals on the planet. But since chimpanzees are closely related to humans, they can do a lot more things than most animals.

I remember putting it inside my backpack together with my wallet this morning at the cafeteria.
Male:
I see. Why don’t you go back to the cafeteria? Someone might have seen your ID. You may ask the people working there.
Female:
I can’t go back there just yet, I don’t want to miss my next class. We will have a quiz today.
Male:
Why don’t you just go to the registrar’s office and request for a new ID? They allow students to request for a new ID.
Female:
I don’t think it will work because requesting for a new ID takes time.
Male:
Is the process too long?
Female:
Yes. I need to write a letter of request first and ask my professor to sign it, so the registrar can give me the form I need to fill out. I also have to wait for 3 days for the registrar’s approval. It will take at least a week to get a new one.

SAMPLE ANSWERS

A female student and a male student are talking about a problem the female student has.
The problem is that she lost her ID.
The male student offered two suggestions to solve her problem.
His first suggestion is to go back to the cafeteria because someone might have seen her ID there.
His second suggestion is to go to the registrar’s office and request for a new ID.
I choose the second suggestion because it gives a permanent solution to the problem. Going back to the cafeteria to look for her ID does not guarantee that she will find it there. She will also need to skip classes in order to do this. Requesting for a new ID may take time but there is an assurance that she will get a new ID in the end.
