People sometimes use animals in entertainment, for example in concerts, movies, TV shows, circuses, or live performances. Some people think this is acceptable, while others believe it is wrong. Take a few minutes to think about this question: Do you think using animals in entertainment is a good or a bad idea? Task: - Make a short list of positive aspects (reasons for using animals). - Make a short list of negative aspects (reasons against using animals). You can write notes or just think and speak. After that, explain your ideas to the teacher. Be ready to give reasons and simple examples.
