overcomes that obstacle though. The girl moves
because her father gets a job at a university as a
professor. She moves with...

Tale Of Two Cities Cry The Beloved Country
1,799 words
One of the most valuable aspects of a book, or any
literature, is the insight offered about the views
of the author and the surrounding society and
times. The way in which certain ideas are
presented in different stories can be very telling
about the attitude of the author, or maybe in
describing a message he is trying to convey. This
is perhaps the most important thing to walk away
with after having experienced a piece of
literature. It is sometimes difficult to find the
underlying theme of a s...

Driving Habits Bad Habits Drivers

As a teen I often get stereotyped as a bad driver
but this is a very unfair judgment. The fact is I
have helped prevent accidents the closest I have
ever been to being in an accident was the fault of
an older gentleman. Still the numbers do not lie
teens have the most accidents of any age bracket.
Why do teens have the highest accident rate? I

why he was a loner and why he only went to
academic school for three years. Beethoven's
