Pets are kept by many people for pleasure or pastimes. They keep and nurse them at home as a hobby. Some people have special breeds of dogs or cats as pets while others rear birds in cages.

In keeping pets we need to take special care. We have to feed them with the right food at the proper times. Any failure on our part could endanger their life. We have to protect them from their enemies. Furthermore, the pets and their cages have to be kept clean. This is to prevent the attack of any diseases from unhygienic surroundings.

If we understand their habits it is easy for us to handle them. Keeping pets gives us an opportunity to be kind to these creatures. We might learn more about the life and needs of pets. Those who keep birds like parrots are likely to read books about rearing them. Such people do not hesitate to spend money, time, and energy for the well-being of their pets.

The word “rearing” in the passage is closest in meaning to…….

 My name is John, and this is my story. Last year just before Christmas my family and our cousins and uncle and aunt decided to go to Perth for holiday. We went in two cars but when we were about halfway there my uncle wanted to turn round and come back. He said it was too far, and it was terribly hot too. One day it was 48°C. Even at night it was really hot. Anyway, what we decided to do was to drive back about 160km to a place where the train went through. Then we put both cars on the train and we all went to Perth by train. That was fun. It was a good train.

 We had a good time in Perth but we had to cut our holiday short. You see, while we were there my grandmother (my mother's mother) in Melbourne died. Most of us flew back but my Dad and my uncle came on the train with the cars and then had to drive back to Melbourne from Port Pirie.

It was a really strange holiday because nothing went the way we planned it.

Who in John's family had to go by train and car to Melbourne?
