    The document discusses animal research, noting that over 115 million animals are used worldwide each year for scientific research, including over 7 million in Australia. While some feel this is unethical, others argue animal testing does not accurately predict human responses. The UK is leading efforts to reduce animal testing for household products and in scientific experiments, whereas in Australia the only major initiative has been a failed bill to ban testing cosmetics on animals.

    How to paraphrase exercise

    The number of animals used for scientific research is enormous: about 115 million each year world-
    wide and over seven million in Australia (Buttrose & Merkes, 2014).

    Public attitudes about animal research are changing. Some people feel we have no right to subject
    sentient beings to painful and lethal procedures to advance knowledge or find cures for human
    diseases. Others have come to the conclusion that animal models fail to predict human response
    (Buttrose & Merkes, 2014).

    The United Kingdom is, again, leading the way with a policy of eliminating testing of household
    products on animals. It has also a stated commitment to reducing the numbers of animals used in
    scientific experiments. In contrast, the only major initiative in this area in Australia has been
    a Green’s private member’s bill earlier this year to ban the largely discontinued practice of animal
    testing for cosmetics (Buttrose & Merkes, 2014).
