Multiple Choice

Adelie penguins are smaller than most other penguins. They are forty-five to seventy-five centimetres tall. They have black heads with white rings around their eyes. On land, they look funny, but they are amazing swimmers, and they can dive down to 180 meters. At present, there are a lot of them in the Antarctic, but global warming is a danger to these lovely birds. Penguins eat small sea creatures that live under the Antarctic ice. As the ice melts, there will be less and less food for them.

Adelie penguins _____

• are not very big.

• look funny when they swim.

• will probably die out soon.

Multiple Choice

There are only about 3,200 tigers still living in the wild in the whole world. But there are many more - perhaps ten thousand­ living as pets in private homes in the USA. Some people think it's cool to have a tiger, lion or leopard as a pet. I think it's cruel and selfish and should be illegal! First, a big wild cat needs a lot of space to run free. Secondly, the owners often don't know how to look after such cats. Their pets don't have the right kind of food, or the medical care they need, and many die. Finally, they can be dangerous to people - it's in their nature!

The purpose of this text is to _____

• explain how to look after a big wild cat.

• express an opinion on keeping wild cats as pets.

• warn people that big wild cats are dangerous.
