SMA Bahasa Inggris: Pertanyaan, Jawaban, Latihan Soal & Pembahasan

                Animal testing is a deeply divided subject, with a great deal of passion, emotion, and ideas on both sides regarding the ethic of the practice. Some individuals support animal testing and some others oppose its use.

                The scientific community is strongly in favour in animal testing. The medical breakthroughs that have occurred as a result of animal testing are considered reason enough to continue the practice, with the aim of reducing human suffering and saving human lives. Animal testing aids researchers in finding drugs and treatments to improve health and medicine. Many medical treatments have been made possible by animal testing, including cancer and HIV drugs, insulin, antibiotics, vaccines, and many more. Animal testing also helps to ensure the safety of drugs and many other substances humans use or are exposed to regularly. Scientists typically use animals for testing purpose because they are considered similar to humans.

                The contra on the issue of animal testing is that countless animals are experimented on and then killed after their use. Others are injured and will still live the rest of their lives in captivity. Many of these animals received tests for substances that will never actually be used for public consumption and use. Animal testing generally costs an enormous amount of money as the animals must be fed, house, cared for and treated with drugs or experimental substances. The price of the animal themselves must also be factored into equation.

                As a result of the controversy, regulation and laws should be enforced. At the very least, animal suffering should be minimized and that animals should be respected during their care. If animal testing is to continue, animals must be abused.

 

Which of the following is the reason why scientists use animals for testing?

                My family of three went to see an early screening of the new Disney movie, “Brave” yesterday, so I thought I would write quick “mommy” review of the movie.

                Disney definitely breaks the standard “Disney Princess” mold with this movie as Princess Merida is a fun, outgoing and wild girl that for once is not in search for the love of a prince. The characters in the movie are entertaining and I love the way that the Scottish culture comes out in the movie. I found myself wishing for more music though, which is one of the things that I truly love about past Disney movies. I would compare this movie more with “Shrek” than a movie like “Tangled.”

                As to the age of the kids that would like this movie I would have to say maybe 5 years old and up. The movie is not quite engaging enough for very young viewers, which was a little disappointing for our three years old. There were parts of the movie that our daughter enjoyed, but it its engaging enough for younger viewers in the audience and made them cry, so be forewarned of this if you are bringing children under the age of five years old.

                I’ve always been a big fan of Disney movies so on a 5-star scale I would rate this 4-star movie. It’s definitely not a favourite, but I give it four stars for the relationship that build between Merida and her mother. I think this offers a great lesson to appreciate your family and truly listen to each others needs and concerns.

        It’s like zoo but the animal are not caged. Giraffes, monkeys, hippopotamus, even lions and tigers wander around freely. Perhaps you may think, what if these animals attack? No, they won’t, because you look at them from inside you car or bus. Here, it is the difference. At the zoo, the animals are locked in the cage. At the Safari Park you are the ones locked inside your vehicle.

Dear Mira,

            Hi, How are you there? I hope you are fine as usual. Mira, I am writing to tell you my experience as a voluntary worker in school. We cleaned the area around our school, mowed the grass and bushes behind our classroom and repainted walls.

            As the chairman of the students organization (OSIS), together with our committee members, we planned and discussed the right time to do this voluntary work. After a long discussion, finally we agreed to hold it last Saturday.

            On that day, fortunately we did not have to study as we had just finished our final examination. So, while waiting for our teachers who were busy writing our ‘report book’ and with the help of Pak Bejo we did it. We were having a good time because we could play while we were working. I wished you could join us at that time.

            What about you? How do you spend your free time at school? How’s your Karate froup at school? I hope to hear from you, write me soon, Thanks.

Best Wishes,

Seno
