 | Hello, Ms. Sanders? Elizabeth Hondru, Chanel 8 News. We all heard your speech today about animal cruelty across the world, along with your (anecdote) that explained what inspired you to do these fundraisers. Could you summarize that story for viewers just now tuning in? | |
|
| Of course! A few years ago, my family and I were in the (arid) desert of the Sahara on vacation, when we saw a few Middle Eastern men beating a camel that couldn't keep up. I was enraged by their (apathetic) attitudes; they didn't care at all! | |

|
| Was that the only time you've seen cruel treatment of animals before? | |
|
| No, not at all. Last year my daughter went on a missions trip to Africa. There, she actually witnessed a group of people poaching an elephant for its ivory. Now, my daughter is a very (astute) and intelligent girl, so she (assessed) the situation, took pictures of the men and what they were doing, and ran back into the town to tell the police. Afterwards, she sent me the pictures, which angered me even more. | |

|
| What are your overall goals to accomplish with these fundraisers? | |
|
| I (aspire) to shed light on the acts of animal cruelty all across the world, and convince people to develop the (animosity) I already have towards anyone who is willing to abuse helpless creatures. | |
