· Where was a campaign against cruelty to animals?
A. But for Americans, fur is still a part of the way of life. The fur trade is one of the oldest businesses in North America. Europeans started buying furs from the Indians over 350 years ago. Today it is a $2 billion industry.
B. For some people, fur is a symbol of luxury, wealth and success. For others, it’s a cruel and stupid business.
In many European countries, there have been long campaigns against the fur trade. Often these have been very successful – in Britain fur sales have fallen by 75%.
C. The second way is getting fur from farmers. Farmers keep animals in special fur farms and then kill them when they want their fur.
D. The industry gets fur in two ways. The first way is getting fur from trappers who set traps to catch and kill wild animals.
E. Now some Americans want to stop the fur trade. Their strongest argument is that there are many natural alternatives to fur. It is easy to produce wool and cotton without cruelty to animals or damage to the environment. But still there are others who strongly support the idea of increasing fur farms and animal hunting. What do you think?
F. Last year in North America, people killed nearly 13 million animals because of their fur.

Human beings are accustomed to living on the earth’s surface. life on earth is different from life in space or other planets since we are used to living in the presence of gravity. this is not so in space. when the presence of this gravity is removed or changed, biological processes can go wrong. in the early years of space travel initial trips out of the earth’s surface were conducted with a lot of care in order to ensure that no or minimal damage was incurred during the spaceflight. as a result of these fears animals were the first living organisms that were sent up into space or on orbital missions. after these animals were sent and when they returned without any noticeable damage physiological or psychological (although scared), astronauts garnered confidence in the fact that humans could also withstand the effects of the journey. in april of 1961, a russian cosmonaut named yuri gagarin became the first person in space when he orbited the earth in 108 minutes[1]. since this historic flight the frequency of humans travelling to outer space has increased. as a result of this new research has been carried out intensively on the physiological and psychological effects of space travel. with an impeding massive 2.5 year space travel to mars it is important that i highlight some of the effects of space travel on human beings to help you make a more informed decision. it is important to note that although there are drawbacks to be faced the information that will be gathered by the astronauts may be very crucial in helping us to make this world a better place.
