    • 3 Pages

    The story‚ created by David Moody‚ compares to a train moving away from a station platform. At first‚ a person could run alongside the track easily‚ though as the train speeds up‚ there comes a moment that the runner anticipates the futility of persevering‚ and as the cars rush forward‚ the person inevitably slows down‚ or at the last moment a decision emerges to jump on for the ride. I was that runner‚ easily bored at the beginning of the book--my mind outracing the slowness of the words‚ but approaching

    	David Hume‚ a Scottish philosopher and historian who lived from 1711-76‚ carried the empiricism of John Locke and George Berkeley to the logical extreme of radical skepticism.

    Long Summer Vacation

    • 3 Pages

    Long stretch of summer vacation is one of the arguments that some parents and educators are arguing about. They say that the school year should be changed so that there wouldn’t be a 10-week summer break. But for me the school year should not be changed. Students should still have 10-week summer break. Students are just humans they also need to rest and relax even just for 10-week. 10-week summer break is the time for students to enjoy and have a fun time with their family. Summer is for students

These two seasons have some bizarre similarities; for example‚ summer and winter both occur when the Earth is tilted into the Sun. When it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere‚ it is winter in the Southern

    Summer. Two months. Possibly shorter. Why. What is this? Summer is a time where everybody is happy‚ there are no worries‚ barbacues‚ you can hang out with your friends and much more!
