for animals?Dear Editor,
I am writing to say that I am against building
a new zoo in our town. Zoos are terrible places
for animals to live. I’ve visited a lot of zoos in
my life, and I have never seen one I liked or one
that was suitable for animals to live in. Just last
week, I visited a zoo and couldn’t believe what
I saw. The animals are kept in tiny cages and
can hardly move at all. And they are only given
food once a day. I this a good way for animals
to live? I don’t think so.
Sincerely,
Disgusted学.科.网The zoos provide homes for many

Help to educate the public about
caring for them.Dear Editor,
I visited our zoo yesterday and I was very surprised
to find hardly anyone there. Zoos are very important
places. They are like living textbooks for young
people. They provide homes for many endangered
animals, and help to educate the public about
caring for them. If we don’t support our zoos, they
won’t have enough money to take care of so many
fine animals. I urge all of your readers to visit our
wonderful zoo soon.

Sincerely,
