 * The egg **

The shark laid an egg on top of a tree Then, an eagle stole the egg and swam away with the egg under water. A cheetah suddenly went in the water and grabbed the egg. Then, the cheetah flew to the sky and cracked the egg. The shark came out and killed the cheetah. Then, the heart of the cheetah came out and killed the shark. The shark fin which is 5000 feet tall ran away. But the heart of the cheetah was faster! It wentto the shark fin and made a soup out of it.

You are right. You are stronger than me.” George admitted. “I am the Champion!” Bob shouted. “Just Kidding.” George stood up and said, “I am the champion.” “Kangaroo punch!” Bob shouted as he punched George’s teeth again.

Hi! I recently read a book called Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick. (Written in 1993) It is a great book. In our class, we had to do a projectthat shows the theme, author's craft and character traits. There were lots of ways to show the project and I chose Lyrical Analysis with the song You've got a friend by James Taylor. Hope you enjoy!
 * Freak the Mighty **

You've got a friend by James Taylor

When you're down and troubled

And you need a helping hand

And nothing, whoa, nothing is going right.

Close your eyes and think of me

And soon I will be there

To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name

And you know wherever I am

I'll come running to see you again

Winter, spring, summer, or fall

All you’ve got to do is call

And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

You've got a friend

If the sky above you

Should turn dark and full of clouds

And that old north wind should begin to blow,

Keep your head together

And call my name out loud.

Soon I’ll be knocking upon your door.

You just call out my name

And you know wherever I am

I'll come running to see you again

Winter, spring, summer, or fall

All you’ve got to do is call

And I'll be there, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey, ain't it good to know that you've got a friend?

People can be so cold

They'll hurt you and desert you

Well, they'll take your soul if you let them

Oh yeah, but don't you let them

You just call out my name,

And you know wherever I am

I'll come running to see you again

Winter, spring, summer, or fall,

All you got to do is call

Lord, I'll be there, yes I will

You've got a friend

You've got a friend

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend

Oh, yeah, yeah, you've got a friend

This song is Max and Kevin speaking to each other. They show they are friends by helping each other and saving each other’s lives. The theme I chose is ‘Your best friend helps you when you are in a crisis.’

This song describes the theme because it says, “ ** You just call out my name and you know wherever I am **** I'll come running to see you again. **** ” ** In the book, I found two scenes where this theme happens. One is when Kevin ate too much American Chop Suey and he almost died. Max came and called the ambulance. Also, when Killer Kane choked Max to death, Kevin came with his squirt gun and rescued Max.

Paul Kim May 28, 2014 Period: C1  ** Bribes ** Do you know what bribes are? Bribes are money that teachers receive from parents in change of giving more attention and better grades to the parent’s children. Do you think teachers still receive bribes? Well, yes they do. Parents use another way to give bribes because it is now illegal to give bribes to teachers. This report will examine the bribes teachers receive and will tell you my opinion about how we should end this awful illegality.

Bribes are the worst thing teachers should ever receive. In the past, bribes were being given because the parents were thanking the teachers for teaching their child. They gave biscuits or edible treats. Gradually, this became giving expensive materials to make the teacher give more attention to their child. Receiving bribes from parents is like cheating on the unit test! To stop teachers from receiving bribes, the parents should not give bribes in the first place. In Korea, because it is illegal to give bribes to teachers, parents use Kakao Talk to give it to them. Kakao Talk is the Korean Skype. This is terrible because if you receive a present from Kakao Talk, it is very complicated to decline it. Thus, the teachers just accept it. When parents give presents that are not so good in Kakao Talk, the teacher replies by saying, “Are you kidding me?” Whenever parents give bribes, the teachers get very rude. Bribes are something that should never exist in our planet. Bribes are one of the traditions that have turned very bad. In China’s past, on the Teacher’s Day, which is on September 10th, the students were expected to give flowers or cards to the teacher. But the parents started giving bribes. Normally people gave a few hundred to a few thousand RMB. The wealthier gave luxury presents, such as nice watch, purse, jewelry, cosmetics and plane tickets for vacation. Students delivered these presents to the teacher by themselves. Teachers are supposed to be nice and honest, but these days, they became greedy and are unfair. Once, a journalist named Anne Holm stated, “You could not bribe honest people, but bad people would accept bribery.” Bribes are something that makes a hole in student’s head and makes the teachers into a fox. The problem of giving bribe is the worry of parents. Parents know that giving bribes is being bad and it is illegal, but because they worry that other parents might be giving bribes, they think they should also give it. Giving bribes is being greedy because you only want your child to get good scores and attract unfair attention. To make your child get a better grade, you should educate them legitimately, not bribing the teacher. When parents give bribes, their children studies less and get less smart, which makes it harder for the children to socialize when he or she grows and has to go to work place and earn money because they will not know what to do because they were not educated well. You might go to a nice university, but you also might get fired from your work place because you do not have the ability to do your work. Bribes are something that should never exist. This was the information about bribery. We need to stop bribery. Firstly, in Korea, gifts over 30,000 Won (About 184 RMB) are considered as a bribe. This is because in Korea, parents normally give presents that are above 500,000 won. Also, in China, on Teacher’s Day, parents should be only allowed to give flowers and cards to teachers. All of these reasons are to stop parents from giving bribes and refrain teachers from receiving bribes.
