1. What responsibilities do people have to animals? I think we should care for animals and give them shelter. If people don't want them they should put them in a zoo or they should give them to stores who will take care of them. We shouldn't abandon our pets if you are going to abandon your pet then just don't get a pet because there are many people in this world who probably want pets and they cant have one.
What is the authors point of view?
In the article "Ending "Shamu" stunts isn't enough to protect whales, activists say"(1st article) The authors point of view is that they should stop the shows. In the other article "Endangered whale may be safer in an aquarium"(2nd article) their point of view is that they shouldn't let whales go to the ocean they should keep them in an aquarium.
Give three pieces of evidence that support your answer
In the 1st article it said "SeaWorld Entertainment Inc. made the announcement Monday about ending the shows. Visitors at the San Diego park made it clear they prefer seeing killer whales act naturally rather than doing tricks. In the 2nd article it says "Possible causes for the decline are reduced prey, pollutants that could cause reproductive problems and oil spills. In the first article it says "Whales held in San Diego were the park's main attraction in the 1970's and helped make SeaWorld a top tourist spot.
How do the two authors distinguish their points of view from each other?
The authors have different points of views about captivity. In the first article it said"However, they said the marine park should stop keeping killer whales in captivity altogether. In the 2nd article it said"NOAA officials said on wednesday that holding an animal captive is not, in and of itself, mistreated.

Exciting Moment
In my book The True Meaning Of Smekday one exciting moment was when, Gratuity and J.Lo thought they saw a UFO, and they started talking about a UFO in a museum. Then they started to have an argument.
"Yes?" said J.Lo, watching the road. "This is a city?"
"I guess so. It's just that it's famous for being where a UFO supposedly crashed like... sixty years ago or something."
"What is 'you if oh' ?"
It was crazy that he didn't know this. "It stands for 'Unidentified Flying Object," I said.
"A flying saucer. An alien spaceship."
J.Lo hit the brakes. I was dumped off my seat and hit my head on the dash.
"Ow!"
"Seat belts," said J.Lo
"What was that for?"
"We have to stop in the Roswell! We canto see the spaceship!"
I winced. "Yeah... except... I don't really think there ever was a spacesh-"
"You said! Tip saidto it crashed-landed!"
"No. No, it's... there's no proof. It's just something people say"
They go on and Gratuity teaches J.Lo about Big Foot and the lockness monster. They enter Roswell and then J.Lo said he saw a boy on a bicycle. Gratuity thought he was hallucinating. They heard a voice that said "Hurry" and they said is sounded like a kid voice. They went to go hide in some trees so they wont see them.

Sensory Language
In my book The True Meaning of Smekday, Some sensory language I found was when they were explaining the Gorg they said. "He could not get sick and he would never tire." So that sentence makes me think that the Gorg is probably big and it is probably really strong because it said that is does not tire. When it says "We'd found our way through the desert brush to another brush to another wide western highway. Down a six- lane road with concrete driver big enough to have it's own gift shop we passed plaster box buildings and signs for chain restaurants." That tells me that they must have been a long drive because it said, desert brush to another brush to a wide western highway". When it said "Down a six-lane road with concrete driver big enough to have it's own gist shop." That tells me that it is a big six-lane road because gift shops can be big. "The near distance I could see schools of Boov ships kicking through the air like shining octopi." That makes the book add more suspense because the Boov are looking for J.Lo and Gratuity and I want to figure out if they are going to catch them or are they going to escape.
