Many people have a close relationship with their pets. These people treat their birds, cats, or other animals as members of their family. In my opinion, such are not good relationships. Because, pets are not human beings so, too much attachment is not good. Many people spend a lot of money to caring their pets and sometimes pets are good friends, but not always.

In my point of view, pets don't have feelings like humans and they would not live longer like humans. Sometimes pets express loving affection on their masters and some pets would not respect their masters. So, all pets are not similar. For instance one of my friends used to have dog, it was a good dog when she was young. One day she went walking to my friend, she ran very fast towards the road and she was dead. My friend was become patient for few months. So, too much attachment with pets is not good.

Next, many people spend a lot of money to caring their pets. I think that sometimes we cannot spend that much money ourselves. As I know, many poor people are in need of food, water and cloth across the world, why don't we spend that money to help the poor people. Most of the people think that raising pets is their status. Spending lots of amount for providing luxury to pets is useless.

Finally, pets are good friends, but not always. Raising the pets for company is better, but having close relationship leads many problems. So, look after that as animal not like a human. I believe that too much of anything is not good.
In conclusion, maintaining close relationship with pets is not good.

__________________________
Pets do have feelings too like humans, I think they are much better than humans in many ways. :) But thats just my opinion.

Any way you have to work on your sentence structuring. Try working on grammer excercises and read as often as you can.

Q4 Many people have a close relationship with their pets. These people treat their birds, cats, or other animals as members of their family. In your opinion, are such relationships good? why or why not? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

In my opinion, a close relationship with pets is good. There are two reasons: to respect lives and to be relaxed.
A close relationship with pets teaches people how important it is respect lives of animals. People take care of their pets by feeding and washing them. They also play with them. As they spend a lot of time with their pets, they start to feel as if their pets were members of their family. However it is not avoidable to experience pets’ death because they cannot live for a long time. When their pets die, they feel as sad as when one of their family dies. At that time they know how thankful it is to live and how important it is to respect living things.
A close relationship with pets makes people relaxed. For example, if a couple who cannot have any children have pets, their pets act as their children. They can see how their pets grow up. And their pets’ funny actions make the couple laugh everyday. They can have good feeling by taking care of and staying with their pets.
Thus, it is good to have a close relationship with pets because people get to respect lives better through death of their pets and they can be relaxed with their pets.

Hi, Radhika
Your opinion:Maintaining close relationship with pets is not good.
Reason 1: The pet's death makes her master sad.
2: People should use money for poor people that pets.

Good points: Your main idea is clear.
You gave specific examples.

Other points: It is hard for me to understand the meaning of this sentence, "pets are good friends, but not always." Is it mean that if pets were always food friends, people should spend more money for pets?

[Radhikaciri]

Thanks for your response.

I mean, sometime pets are good friends not always.
