Formal letter

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Agustin and I am a student at Matulaitis High School. I am writing to ask you for more information about WWF. I am not a member of WWF but I like to know more about how I can help.

I would like to know if tehre is a branch in my country. I would like to help in my own area if possible. I believe there are a lot of ecological problems in my town.

I would be grateful if you could tell me what kind of activities is involved and whether how much it costs join; also, what do members receive?. Is WWF an independent organisation?. I am seventeen years old and I do not have much experience of enviromental work but I like going for walks.

I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,

Agustin D. Garcia

Summary

Wil turkeys were introduce in 1975 in different suburbs, but these animals adpat well to the suburbs because it is an oportunistic animal. These aniamls lose their fear of humans when people feed them, so that, they turn fierce. Finally, the wild turkeys can live in the suburban areas because they adapt well to this place and also to the humans.

Whow! what a big surprise!

Last summer, I went to Paraguay with my uncle, aunt and my cousins. It was a a beautiful day in Luque and we were having breakfast. That morning we went to Asuncion and Ciudad del Este to buy some things. But, while we were preparing the car, a big and large iguana crossed, it was very ugly. The iguana was green and a little black. When we saw the animal we were amazed, but my cousin called Florencia was so afraid of this animal that she hid from it. I think that the animal was fantastic, but no for a pet. Later, the iguana ran away, it was so fast that we didn't see it. Finally, we went to Asuncion and Ciudad del Este and we bought a lot of electronic things.

My pet Araceli, "The Fasul"

My dog called Aracelli was a very good dog. I always looked after it because she was faithful. Every day I put the water and the food in a plate, I looked her twice a week. We played a lot in my house with an orange ball and sometimes she slept with me. I think that this dog was different from others because when I walked with her she looked pacific. Finally this summer she died because she was very old.

Should people be allowed to keep exotic animals as pets?

Many people seem to look for exotic animals to keep as pets. I wonder whether this should be allowed.

Firstly, some people keep exotic animals as pets because people think that these animals are pretty, original and nice. Secondly, these people believe that these animals give more originaly to the owners, they also think that they give power. The owners don't think in the animal like a person because they tak it out of their habitat. These exotic animals generally are snakes, monkeys, turtles, green turtles, iguanes, etc. But, all these animals are not pets like a dog or a cat, because they are very different.

On the other hand, some people never keep exotic animals as pets because they think that it is a crime to the animal and to the family. Some people thinkin the environment and decide not to keep exotic animals as pets.

I think some people believe that keeping exotic animals as pets is good for originality, power,etc. But I prefer to look after the environment and preserve exotic species.
