Answer:
I oppose animal cruelty as I think that all living should be treated equally and should treat everyone how we want to be treated. All animals have feelings and imagine if you were doing the same things to humans as you do to animals what would you be known as. Another reason is that it is wasteful and expensive. Imagine wasting all your money on being cruel to animals and then it doesn't even work. what a waste of time and money.
In conclusion, I think that animal cruelty should be stopped because all animals have feelings and nobody wants to waste all their money doing bad things.

Answer:
The right answer is "It teaches the reader... is trying to be polite"
Explanation:
In this situation, the reader is presented with a situation that exemplifies cultural differences which, if not understood, may lead to misunderstanding and misjudgement. The minister represents the reader and his/her possible reaction to such situation or a similar one. And <em>being polite</em> is the desired attitude the author seeks the reader to show in case of cultural differences.
