SOAL 8
Ladies and gentlemen, members of the house, we believe that every creature has the right to live freely. Animals are not exceptional. They also have the right to live freely without being caged and used as an entertainment. Thus, we support this debate’s motion: this house would ban zoo, all zoos. Many of us may have watched Madagascar movies. I believe that most of us find the movie hilarious and entertaining. Yet, the movies are not only entertaining. The movies also reflect how animals would live happily if they can live in the open, not behind the bars. I have one argument that will support the banning of zoo. My argument is related to the right of animals. I cannot neglect that animals are edible and can be consumed by human being. However, it doesn’t mean that all animals can be consumed by us. Animals are categorized into wild animals and farm animals. Unlike farm animals which can be consumed and bred by human, wild animals should live in the open. They cannot be consumed and cannot be bred by human. All animals in zoo are wild animals, not farm animals. Hence, they have to live in the open.

Yet, our democracy is still far-fetched from being good. My first ..... will be about how votes of illiterate people determine the well-being of many people. In an election, illiterate people bring harms to themselves and other people in general. Why? Ideally when you vote, you have to know about the candidates and you have to identify their track records. If you choose randomly, chances that ‘wrong’ people to be elected might be high. Then, the wrong leader will lead everyone. Hence, we have to change this condition by making literacy as the requirement to vote.
The right set of words are....
