4、 places in large cities for people to visit. In some large zoos, there are various animals from space to sea and from primitive invertebrates to advanced and intelligent mammals. In the zoos, all animals, including those rare animals, such as panda, Africa elephant, and North-East tiger, could enjoy

5、 good care and protection away from any hurt. However, along with the stronger natural environmental protection consciousness, many people think that to put animals into small cages will change their living instincts, and therefore break the ecological balance.Viewed from the basic relations between

6、 animals and human beings, animals should have the equal freedom with human beings. They are all forms of life. Animals have their own living instinct, and it is this instinct that forms the biological chain of the Earth. This relation is called Ecological Balance academically. For example, insectbi

7、rdsnake. If most birds in a region are killed and locked into cages by human beings, the pests will eat out all crops, and snakes will lose a large part of food (bird) resources, therefore leading to starvation and death.This opinion sounds ideal theoretically. However in reality, human beings and o

8、ther animals cannot stay together peacefully on the Earth. Because of human beings’ lust for fortune, many valuable animals are killed or sold, especially those endangered species. Therefore, zoos appear as an active way for people to protect those poor animals. First, this is an action not on

9、ly for animals but also for human being itself. Once the biological chain is broken, human beings will be punished inevitably. Next, zoos can serve a purpose of educating and entertaining people, narrowing the distance between human beings and animals. Last, zoos can be a scientific study center to

10、rescue more endangered species and make animals better serve people’s need.The key point of this topic is freedom or protection. In my opinion, those two aspects can be unified. It is necessary to keep animals in zoos for the purpose of protection, teaching and study. Let’s think it furt

11、her, the purpose of all these actions is to make animals live happier, therefore, maintain the ecological balance, hence protect our own living environment.Animals should have the equal freedom with human beings because（）A. we all have instinctsB. we all are living in this planetC. we are all forms

12、of lifeD. we can’t live without each other5.Most of the jobs in society that are high-paying, powerful, and demand a lot of responsibility are held by men. I do not believe this situation arose because women are incapable of doing high-level work. I believe society could benefit if more women

13、were in positions of power and therefore I think the government should reserve a percentage of these jobs for females.Why should government encourage a certain percentage of high-level jobs for women Firstly, the problem of unfair employment distribution appears to come from social convention and no

14、t competence or true ability. At a young age most girls are not encouraged to pursue political office, business, or professional prestige. On the other hand, boys are told to do these things. As a result, men hold the high-level jobs but this does not mean they are very good at what they do. If the

15、government set quota for hiring women to do high-level work, such as working in the government itself, then perhaps women would be more inspired to be ambitious in their life plans and contribute to a less-than perfect society.Furthermore, regulations in the workplace for hiring women would not be a

16、 new thing. Although not written or made into law, there seems to be rules for who can and cannot have high-level jobs. For instance, if a man and a woman both competed the presidency of a company or even the country, and both were equally qualified and had the same experience and background, there

17、is little doubt who would get the job. Even more, if the man was less qualified and less experienced than the woman, the man would still probably get the job because of his sex. Therefore, to legislate a percentage of high-level jobs for women would work to fight the unwritten existing rules of the

18、workplace.On the other hand, there are many arguments against the use of a quota system for women. It is true that the injustice and discrimination could be reversed. This is to say that some qualified men might be denied a job while some unqualified women would be given one. Also, the problem of se

19、xism at work could be worsened instead of being overcome. People would doubt whether a woman with a high-level job was truly capable men might feel bitterness and resentment, while women might think less of themselves and begin to depend on government charity. Furthermore, there is the problem of de

20、fining what is a high-level job and determining an appropriate percentage. Nonetheless, a quota system would break down some barriers in the short term. Sexism in the workplace will not just magically disappear.To sum up, I have outlined some advantages and disadvantages of making quotas for the num

21、ber of women in high-level jobs. Despite some of the obvious problems I believe that men and women can and should share power, wealth, and prestige. It is a cause worthy of our efforts.Most young girls are not encouraged to pursue political office, business, or professional prestige because（）A. of t
