Do you think animals should be killed to be eaten? if yes, explain why.
trapecia [35]
Its 50/50 animals are killed by humans for our benefits but they dont have to do it. We could simply eat vegetables or anything from plants (which i think anything that comes from plats is a vegetable). So I think that the answer depends on who is answering the question if they are vegans or meat eaters (which i am myself).

Mamont248 [21]
I would say that the statement that is true about this passage is A) The first sentence suggests the myth-tellers liked to be alone on the water.
None of these sentences seem correct to me though, so I am unsure about this one too.
