1. Aim: How do we paraphrase (explain in our own words) evidence (3)?
Do now: Use Strategy #3 (changing the passive voice to the active voice) to paraphrase the following sentence.
“So long as wild animals are kept in captivity, they ought to be treated humanely (Text #1, ll 30-31).”

2. Strategy 1: Replace some key words with synonyms (write the synonyms for the underlined words or phrases).
