A: Hello, thank you for coming. Today we’re going to discuss the zoo. The problem is that the zoo
will close without money. Why don’t we ask companies to sponsor different animals. Their company
name will be on a sign near the animal.
B: That’s a good idea, but I think it’s hard to persuade the companies. How about offering special
tickets with discounts such as a ‘family ticket’ or cheaper prices for children?
A: Yes, but we can’t attract enough visitors, and we don’t have money to advertise.
B: So, We could ask people to buy an animal but it lives at the zoo?
A: No, that won’t work. They spend money on animals, but they can’t take care of their animals. Why
don’t we organize an open day where everyone in the city can visit the zoo for free to learn more about
their zoo?
B: Actually, that isn’t a bad idea. You might be right!
