ELEPHANTS RETIRE FROM A CIRCUS

http://www.newsinlevels.com/products/elephants-retire-from-a-circus-level-3/

This news was posted on the 17th May 2016 on a web site called English in levels. The article talks about the withdrawal of 11 elephants which were in the Ringling Brothers' Circus doing an amazing show. As the news says, the animals have been moved to Florida, in a conservation centre. Finally the article explains that elephants are endangered, so there are fewer than 40,000 elephants in the wild.

In my opinion I think this is fantastic news. I really like the idea of elephants not being used and mistreated in Circuses. The conditions of animals living in captivity, not only in a Circus but also in a zoo, are very poor and miserable, and they should have the right to live in their real habitat. So I’m glad these poor 11 elephants could now have a better life. People seem to be getting more and more conscious about the topic of animal rights and endangered animals. 

Your-say

POINT THE BLAME

I want to talk about the blame, specifically in pointing the blame to others. I read a phrase on a book:  Is there a chance that you may not have all the facts, or that your angers is obscuring your judgement?

About the first part of the phrase (Is there a chance that you may not have all the facts) I agree because it’s easy to point the blame to somebody when you just have had listened a part of the story. Normally there are a lot of different points of view of a just one fact and all there are possible true. So before to do a judgment you have to be sure that you know all  the facts. Anyway I think we shouldn’t do ever a judgement of others because we don’t really know the causes and the thought the other have, and we are nobody to judge others. About the other part of the phrase I also agree: sometimes the anger can obscur the judgment, so you are like blind.

INTRUSIVE THOUGHT

I want to talks about the intrusive thought. The intrusive thought are these which make you doubt about things in your life. 
My first thought is that people shoun't pay attention to these thought because there are not true and they will just make you feel unhappy. Negative people tend to think that they are not enough or that they don’t deserve something or they not should be in this job etc. So this thought for this people are just the result of a fear mechanism so they shouldn’t believe them. However I  thinking better i don't think you just have to try to forget them, because if they are there is because of you. So I think that what people should do is to try to figure out why are these thought there. Because if you find the reason, then you are able to re-evaluate and transform this bad thought in good ones. If you try to supress them or try to not think about it they will become stronger so they won’t disappear.
