They say that animals deserve greater moral consideration than human beings generally give them. 第17页/共307页 Some animal rights activists work to outlaw laboratory experiments on animals. Others teach that human beings do not need to eat animals for survival. Many activists protest the use of fur coats or leather products.

Curiosity shapes people so much. Its what makes them who they are. Its what makes them unique. What subjects and topics interest you? Where will your interests lead you in life? Thats so important to students in their college work. Im afraid I dont agree. Curiosity is only a part of the picture. The big difference in students has to do with study habits. Does a student work hard, or not? Believe me, those differences can be huge. Like night or day. Actually, I think youre both right. Youre just pointing out different aspects of a persons character. Both are very important. Why choose one over the other?Thats true. Neither is completely right or wrong. A persons curiosity says so much. So does his or her capacity for work. You can tell a lot about someone through either aspect.Student C:Student D:第58页/共307页RW listReading & WritingText AText BI Like AnimalsHorse Sense Wilhelm von Osten Tries to Teach Horse to CountPractical ReadingText A Exercises Text B Exercises Basic Reading Skills Grammar ReviewPractical Writing 第59页/共307页StarterIs there anyone who does NOT like animals?
