The instruction on the paper: Encuentra las palabras que completen las siguientes oraciones. Utiliza las palabras tal como aparecen en el texto. → Find the words that complete the sentences. Use the words exactly as they appear in the text.
El refugio Huellas: El refugio Huellas acoge perros y gatos abandonados. Funciona gracias a treinta voluntarios que pasean a los animales y limpian las instalaciones. Cada año, más de doscientas mascotas encuentran una familia nueva. Para adoptar, hay que tener más de dieciocho años y firmar un contrato.
