Read the passage given below and answer the given questions: 1. People who support animal rights recognize that all animals have an inherent worth, a value completely separate from their usefulness to humans. Every being with a will to live has the right to live free from exploitation and suffering. 2. All animals have the ability to suffer in the same way and to the same degree as humans do. They feel pain, pleasure, fear, frustration, loneliness and familial love. Whenever we consider doing something that would interfere with their needs, we are morally obligated to take them into account. 3. People often ask if animal rights mean that animals should have the right to vote or drive a car. Of course, that would be silly because those aren’t rights that would benefit animals. But animals have the right not to suffer at the hands of humans and to live their lives free from suffering and exploitation because they have an interest in doing so. That is the difference between equal consideration and equal treatment. 4. Almost everyone cares about animals in some context, whether it's a beloved family companion, an irresistibly cute kitten or a majestic animal seen in a documentary. After all, we each have some built-in capacity for empathy andcompassion, as can be seen from the lengths that children often go in order to help animals. 5. Logically and morally, there is no reason to differentiate in the way we treat the animals we share our homes with and those who are farmed for food. They are all individuals, with the same capacity to feel pain and fear. Animal rights help us to look past the arbitrary distinctions between different species, to rediscover our innate compassion, and to respect all animals equally. 6. Anyone who cares about animals can start these principles into practices every single day with the food they eat, the clothes they wear and the products they buy. These choices are a form of non-violent protest that makes a real difference both by reducing the profits of corporations that harm or kill animals and by creating a growing market for cruelty—free food, fashion, services and entertainment.
