Todd: What do you think about the zoo?
Dianna: I like to go to the zoo. I like to give all the animals names, like "Bert the Giraffe", but I wish the animals didn't have to be in the zoo, but I think it is good when zoos save 1 animals, and help to make their populations 3 grow.
Todd: Yeah, they can do some good things, definitely 5. Ah 4, what is your favorite 6 animal?
Dianna: My favorite animal, ooh, let me think. I love cats, just as 7 a pet but, besides 8 I'd pick 9 the coolest animal, I think I would 10 pick probably 11 a monkey.
Todd: A monkey!
Dianna: Yeah.
Todd: Yeah, there's a lot of monkeys in Japan. Have you ever 12 seen 13 a monkey in the wild 14?
Dianna: No, but my brother is a wild monkey.
Todd: Oh, he's going 15 to have to listen to this now.
学习内容：
Learn Vocabulary 16 from the lesson
save
Zoos save animals.
To 'save' an animal is to protect 17 it from danger 18 or death 19. The example says that zoos keep the animals safe from death. Notice the following 20:
He saved 21 my life 22 last year.
We need to save more water.
population 2
Zoos help to make animal populations grow.
The animal 'population' is the number of animals there are. We can also use this to talk about the number of humans 23 there are in a city or town. Notice the following:
What is the population of your city?
The population is increasing 24 every year.
definitely
Zoos can do some good things, definitely.
'Definitely' is similar 25 to certainly 26 or for sure. We use this for something that is a fact 27. Notice the following:
He will definitely come to the party.
We can definitely take care 28 of your daughter on Friday night.
pet
I love cats, just as a pet.
A 'pet' is an animal that lives in your house with you. You care for it and give it food and love. Notice the following:
He keeps a snake as a pet.
Do you have any pets?
in the wild
Have you ever seen a monkey in the wild?
If an animal is 'in the wild' it is in its natural 29 habitat 30 or home, not in a cage 31 at the zoo. Notice the following:
Didn't you see a shark in the wild last year?
At the end of our hike 32 we saw 33 a bear in the wild.
