[HS]2-2 What kind of pet do you like to have in your house?

PASSAGE READING

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

READ

There are various reasons as to why people keep pets at home. Aside for their cuteness, pets are said to enhance the mood and reduce the stress of their owners. A pet can either be bought from a pet shop or adopted from an animal shelter. Cats, dogs, fishes, birds, and small animals are some of the common pets. The two most popular pets around the world are cats and dogs. Dogs are said to be the most loving pets. They are the so called “man’s best friend” and are known to be man’s protector and helper. On the other hand, cats are said to be smarter than dogs. They can also be loving and obedient if one gets to train them well. Another reason these two animals are the most popular choices is because they can easily adapt to their owners’ environment.

[HS]2-1 What is the most important thing to sustain our Earth?

PASSAGE READING

READ

Earth is the only planet in the solar system that can support life. It is also the only planet that has water on its surface. Life on Earth is currently in danger, but it’s not too late to do something about it. People can help save the Earth simply by conserving water.

All living things need water to survive. Because of this, we have to control our consumption of water. We can start saving water at home by simply turning off the faucet while brushing our teeth. Instead of letting the water pour down from the shower, we may place a bucket to collect water and reuse it to water plants. Through this, people can save thousands of gallons of water. These small actions can have a huge impact on helping the environment and sustaining the Earth.

[HS] 3 – Why it is convenient to use pictograms

PASSAGE READING

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

READ

Advantages of Pictograms

Cultural background affects how people understand a certain context. If the symbols used in a pictogram are not common, people might find its message confusing. A pictogram that fails to deliver the message it intends is useless.

On the other hand, pictograms have several advantages. Being visually appealing is one of them. They grab people’s attention with its bright colors and designs. Another advantage is that since it uses symbols, it is easier to understand compared to written signs. People quickly understand pictograms by simply looking at them. Because of this, pictograms take the place of long written signs in public places.
