b. Your birthday is just around the corner. Your father
brought you to a pet shop. Based on the information
given, which animal would you choose as a pet? Give
reasons for your choice.
I would choose the dog as my pet because it is a loyal
animal. It lives in a kennel. I already have one in my
house so I can use it to keep my pet dog. This pet
feeds on dog food and bones. It would not be a
problem as a pet shop is just near my house. The
price is only RM 13.00. My father has enough money
to buy this pet as my birthday gift.
