Vision of the future For many years‚ science fiction writers have challenged readers with visions of the future and future society. These authors offered an insight into what they expected man‚ society‚ and life to be like at some future time.

Rosalinda Saavedra English 1301-11327 Dear Dr. Sexton‚ I want to apologize for how irresponsible I have shown myself to be.

all the student’s body odour after they have come inside from recess! I feel as if I am tattered‚ worn down‚ that my threads are coming undone‚ and my colour is fading. Actually‚ maybe I am already.

In 399 BC‚ a famous Athenian philosopher by the name of Socrates was found guilty in two offenses. The city of Athens gathered to hear the trial‚ and The Apology by Plato allows to better understand what was said in Socrates’ defense and sort through the logistics of the case.
