Kia orana readers welcome back to my blog,
Today I am sharing going to be sharing with you my For/Against Statements number two. For this we had a slide show where we had to choose three statements and if we did not agree with the statement we had to change it. Here is my work.
I think… Cats do not make the best pets
Because… A lot of people are allergic to cats which might make them very sneezy or have a very serious allergic reaction. Cats also sleep a lot and they don’t often want to get active.
My evidence: 1. When someone becomes allergic to cats, what they are actually reacting to is a protein known as Fel d 1, which is in cats’ saliva. 2. Have you ever wondered if all of this sleeping is normal? Cats spend 15-20 hours a day resting or sleeping. (1. Source: Link) (2. Source: Link) |
I think… summer is not the best season
Because… in summer there are so many bugs amongst you although in winter you don’t have to worry about bugs swarming you every second of the day. Also if you are someone who has hay fever there's no problem with that in winter but in summer you’ll be sneezing all day long.
My evidence: 1. you’re always worried about getting stung by a wasp or bitten by an insect. Well, the good news for you is that winter has virtually no bugs and insects around. 2. Many plants pollinate based on environmental triggers which is why we have different allergy seasons caused by different plants. Most grasses like to pollinate during the heat, which is why summer is when grass allergies are at their worst. (Source one: Link) (Source two: Link) |

Kia ora Emily,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing some more excellent mahi with us! You have done a great job of giving us reasons for your statements. I have to disagree with you that summer is not the best season, as it is my favourite. However, you have backed your opinion and used some great supporting evidence. Well done!
Hola Whaea Miki,
DeleteI chose to choose this statement because in summer I often get hay fever a lot. Sometimes it changes and I like to play outside and enjoy the hot sun. Ciao.
