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. Is this a good way for animals
to live I don’t think so.
Sincerely,
Disgusted
3a Read the letter and underline the reasons why the writer is against the zoos.
1 Zoos are terrible places for animals to live.
2 The animals are kept in tiny cages and hardly move at all.

1. I’m writing to say that I am against
building a new zoo in our town.
against 介词, 反对, 违反,
与……相反(=opposite)
如:
Are most people against the proposal
大多数人反对这项提议吗
against 介词还有触, 碰, 倚, 靠的意思。
如:
Put the piano there, with its back,
against the wall.
把钢琴放在那里,背靠着墙。
Be against doing sth.
反对做某事, 反义词组是 be for doing sth,
赞成某事

All of us are for peace and against war.

2. 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.

如:
This kind of bamboo is not suitable for pandas to eat.
这种竹子不适合给熊猫吃。
This dress suits you very much, but unfortunately it doesn’t fit you.
这套女装款式非常适合你,只可惜大小不合适。
(2)to live in 在此处作animals的后置定语。英语中动词不定式短语做名词定语,放在后面。如:
There is nothing for us to worry about. 我们没有什么可以担心的。
3. The animals are kept in tiny cages.
动物被关在极小的笼子里。
tiny=little 很小的 ,带有感彩.
区别, the tiny country 国家小 (含可爱的意思)
a small country 小国家(与large country 相对应)
a little boy 爱怜之意,(不含身材矮小)
tiny 和little 常做定语,一般不做表语,small 既可以做定语,也可以做表语。
little 还可表示 “一点点的”,修饰不可数名词。如：
There is a little milk in the bottle.
瓶里有一点点的牛奶。
Different people have different
opinions.
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,
Animal Friend
