Do you know why it is hot in the summer and cold in the winter? Most people believe that it is because the Earth is closer to the Sun in the summer and farther from it in the winter. But it is not like this at all! In fact, the distance between the Earth and the Sun is largest in July and smallest in January! Scientists suggest that the reason for different summer and winter temperatures is the angle of the Sun’s rays. In the summer, the rays reach the Earth almost at a right angle. Due to this, the rays are not spread out and a smaller area of the planet's surface gets the energy. In the winter, the angle changes and the Sun’s rays are spread out over a larger area. Besides this, the long nights and short days do not give enough time for the land to warm up.

You are going to give a talk about pets. You will have to start in 1.5 minutes and will speak for not more than 2 minutes.

Remember to say:

o        why people keep pets;

o        what pets are most popular in big cities;

o        whether having pets is a big responsibility, and why.

I’d like to give a talk about pets because this topic is quite interesting and actual today.

People keep pets for many reasons. Firstly, a pet can give you pleasure and amusement. Secondly, a pet can change your life and make it more interesting. And finally, if you give your pet a little love and attention, you will have a friend for life.

I think the most popular pets in big cities are goldfish because they are quiet and they don’t eat a lot, so they are cheap to keep. Hamsters are wonderful pets, too. They are small and cute and don’t need much attention. Cats also make great companions for people in big cities because they are playful and are easy to look after.

Today people have busy routines and we don’t have time to care for our pets. But we should always  remember that having pets is a big responsibility. You can’t leave them alone all day because they need to have company. You also have to buy food for them, feed your pets regularly and take them to the vet when they are ill.

In conclusion, I think that having a pet at home makes you feel happy and relaxed.
