15、 against zoos, would argue that animals often suffer（遭受痛苦）physically and mentally by being enclosed. Even the best man-made environments cant come close to matching the space, diversity（多样性）, and freedom that animals have in their natural homes. This causes many zoo animals to become sick. Catching

16、animals in the wild also causes much suffering by separating with dolphinh family. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example, ocean parks often force dolphins and whales to perform. These sea animals may die years earlier than their wild relatives.On the other hand, by bringing people a

17、nd animals together, zoos can educate the public about animal protection and encourage people to save animals and their homes.

Perhaps it all depends on how well zoos are managed, and the benefits of zoos can surely outweigh t

22、heir harmful effects.

When you choose to be a victim, the world is a cold

31、and difficult place. “They” did things to you which caused all of your pain and suffering. “They” are wrong and bad, and life is terrible as long as “they” are around.
