Question

the dog on the boat
the group of pirates found a dog last day while they were looking for treasure on the island they had visited. they decided to keep the dog as the mascot of their crew. they told it was a very special day to carry the dog. the dog was very happy though the dog would be a part of a new crew. they named the dog shaggy. the dog was very good at ship navigation. the other ship members were very happy too.
this naughty puppy suddenly got into hot water on the ship. the pirates found that they had only little of meat. shaggy jumped right up for the meat and almost ate every bit before they could tell him to stop. another reason that shaggy caused the pirates new some problems is because shaggy absolutely loved to go swimming, so when the pirate crew would throw down their anchor and try to do some fishing, they would hear a splash and see shaggy swimming around their boat. this made it impossible to fish because shaggy scared away the fish. a pirate member named jake came to the captain one afternoon and told him that he used to be a dog trainer before he joined the pirate crew. the captain immediately put jake in charge of training shaggy so that shaggy could be a better behaved pirate crew dog.

identify two ways that shaggy caused issues on the boat.

why do you think the captain immediately hired jake?

do you think shaggy’s life is better now on the boat? explain why

Explanation:

1. Las dos razones se extraen directamente del texto: se menciona que Shaggy se comía la comida de la tripulación y que asustaba a los peces al nadar, impidiendo la pesca.
2. El texto indica que Jake había sido adiestrador de perros, por lo que el capitán lo encargó de entrenar a Shaggy para mejorar su comportamiento.
3. Se deduce que con la formación de Jake, Shaggy podrá comportarse mejor, lo que mejorará su convivencia con la tripulación y le dará una estructura en su vida en el barco.

Answer:

1. 1. Se comía toda la comida de la tripulación antes de que pudieran comerla.
2. Asustaba a los peces, lo que hacía imposible pescar.
3. Porque Jake era un adiestrador de perros antes de unirse a la tripulación, así que tenía la experiencia necesaria para enseñarle a Shaggy a comportarse mejor.
4. Sí, creo que la vida de Shaggy es mejor ahora en el barco. Ahora tendrá una rutina y una guía para comportarse, lo que le ayudará a tener una convivencia mejor con la tripulación y no causar problemas, además de tener un hogar estable con ellos.
