Last week, Class 1 went on a trip to London Zoo. They had a wild day out! Almost all the students found their favourite animals. The trip also gave Class 1 something else to talk about. They argued(爭論) about whether(是否) zoos are cruel(殘酷的). The zoo animals are from all around the world. How can they all be comfortable?

Lucy, one of our reporters, was with Class 1 students and she interviewed Tom.

Lucy: What 's your favorite animal, Tom?

Tom: Giraffes.

Lucy: Why?

Tom: They look so strange! They have such long, long necks! And they have really long legs, too.

Lucy: They do look strange. How tall do they grow?

Tom: About 18 feet tall. They can run fast too, because their legs are so long. They can run up to 35 miles an hour.

Lucy: That 's pretty fast! They must eat a lot to be able to run that fast. Do they eat a lot of meat?

Tom: NO, they don't eat any meat. They eat leaves. That's the only thing they eat.

Lucy: Do giraffes live all over the world, too?

Tom: No, they don't. They live only in Africa.

Lucy: But Africa is a lot hotter than Europe! Don't you think it's cruel to bring giraffes over from Africa to Europe? Don 't you think it's cruel to keep them in the zoo?

Tom: Well, I enjoyed seeing them today. But in Africa they would have miles and miles of grassland to live on and here they only have the giraffe houses. I'm sure the zoo looks after them very well. But I don't think they should be in zoos.

Someone says the world would be no more in 2012, but our scientists' ideas are not the same. And they are sure to see the future: by the year 3000, this world is going to have different kinds of private machines. They will make the work much easier for us.

The four-legged jeans of the year 3,000 will make sure you have a place to sit everywhere you go. To save on gas, circus(馬戲團(tuán)) performers will take the place of the school bus drivers. And the helicopter(直升飛機(jī)) cap can get you around faster and easier than your bike.
