Have you ever been to a zoo? You were probably able to see many animals that you had only ever seen in a science textbook. The experience you had at the zoo was probably memorable and taught you things you never knew before.Zoos allow animals to live in a safe environment. These animals do not have to worry about the threat or stress of predators. They do not have to deal with the irritation or pain of injuries and illnesses that they would if they lived in the wild. Animals in the zoo are given top-quality treatment when they are hurt or in need of special care. The animals are hydrated and fed, and zookeepers are sure to give them a high-quality diet with all the nutrients needed. A good zoo provides great care and protection for the animals in their care. Because there are many species of animals in danger of going extinct, zoos provide an even more important role in our world. Zoos help protect species going extinct. A species that is kept in captivity is a zoo’s effort to help rebuild the population. Once the population is rebuilt, the zoos can reintroduce the animals to the wild. Without zoos, many more species would be extinct. When an animal species is extinct, there is no new research that can be done. Many children and adults enjoy seeing animals in person. Kids learn seeing, hearing, smelling and watching what an animal does. This allows humans to have a greater understanding of animal species that they would never have had the chance to learn about if zoos did not exist. When we as humans have opportunities to learn about the animals on our planet, we can make the right decisions in order to keep our ecosystems successfully functioning.

Read the following passage:

When they saw all this, my men begged me to let them first steal some cheeses, and make off with them to the ship; they would then return, drive down the lambs and kids, put them on board and sail away with them. It would have been indeed better if we had done so but I would not listen to them, for I wanted to see the owner himself, in the hope that he might give me a present.

Amber placed the first batch of cookies on the oven rack and closed the door. "Only eight minutes till gooey, chocolate-chip goodness," she said, as she set the kitchen timer.

"Eight minutes is a lifetime when you have to wait for something this delicious!" said Jana.

"Let's watch some TV to distract ourselves." Amber grabbed the remote and flipped on the television, and before long the two were laughing hysterically at their favorite show.

Suddenly, Jana looked over at Amber. "What's that smell?"

"The cookies!" They both screamed at once. Panicking, they ran into the kitchen. The timer blared at them accusingly. Amber opened the oven door, and smoke billowed out.

"Guess we'll have to wait eight more minutes." Jana was already plopping more dough onto a clean cookie sheet.

All Victor ever wanted to do with his life was be a singer. He didn't pay attention in school, and
he spent all his time at home listening to music and impersonating his idols. His mother tried to
teach him the value of getting an education and having a backup plan. But Victor would respond
the same way every time, "Mom, I won't need to know any of that boring old stuff when I'm
famous. You'll see." There was one major problem with Victor's plan: he wasn't any good at
singing. Victor enjoyed singing so much that he didn't notice the pained look on the faces of
those who endured his singing. Some lied to him and said they liked his singing. Other people
told him to find something else to do with his life. Victor accused those people of being "jealous
haters" and ignored their advice. Soon Victor dropped out of high school to focus on his music
career. The years passed and the doors never opened. What is the theme of this story?

And at the end, almost too weak to speak, he whispered in my ear that his sole sorrow was to have passed on before the windmill was finished. "Forward, comrades!" he whispered. "Forward in the name of the Rebellion. Long live Animal Farm! Long live Comrade Napoleon! Napoleon is always right." Those were his very last words, comrades."
