Question

Write down the conversation between Adam and his friend Sue.

Answer

  • Adam: Hi, Sue, you look a bit sad. Anything wrong?
  • Sue: Yes, as a matter of fact there is. I'm very upset because my dog Sam died last week.
  • Adam: Poor you! I'm sorry to hear that. Was he old?
  • Sue: He was 9 years old. I had been given him / He had been given to me for my birthday and he could be considered as / he was like a member of the family.
  • Adam: Don't you think it might be a good idea to get another dog?
  • Sue: I was thinking about it. There are a lot of dogs that have been abandoned by their cruel owners and have been put into a dog shelter. It's too bad.
  • Adam: I agree, even if they say they are treated well.
  • Sue: I just hate the whole idea. Animals suffer, too, and their quality of life is important. The rights of animals should be respected.
