Do you believe in luck
I don't believe luck. Because i think anything you have to try your best to prove it. You could't always successes by luck. I don't think some people are lucky than others. Lucky people try harder than the unlucky people. Lucky: Success or failure apparently by chance rather than through one's own action. Or having, bring, or resulting from good luck. I know a person who are really unlucky. There is a man byt the lottery and won a million dollar. Then he went to Las Vegas to the Casino, he won a lot of money too. There is a another person, who bought thousands dollars, never won any money back.

Shooting an elephant
This story basic is taking about how the Europe white people treated in the Burma. Burma people really hate the White people. The main character is trying to kill an elephant to protect him looks not stupid, or make all the people think this white people looks not stupid.
George Orwell's life

After that, he joining the Indian police service and was sent to Burma. That's how his interesting story starts. He totally feel all the issue of Europe society and Burma's society.

Describe his experienmence in Bruma, and some other experience in London and Paris. During World War two he also worked for the BBC producing programmes for India and South East Asia.
Burma
Burma also known as Myanmar.
Its population of over 60 million. It is the world's 40th largest country and the second largest in southeast asia. There are big human rights problem in this country. For example: rape, child labour, slavery, human trafficking and a lack of freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly. Is also a country that rich in precious stones, oil, natural gas, and other mineral resources.
The country was colonized by Britain before, that's why they don't like the white that much. That's why our main character have to killed an elephant fornt of 2000 Burma people. The people their got human rights problems, but the government is trying to solve the problems.
What is stereotype?
Stereotype is a widely held but fixed oversimplified imager or idea of a particular type of person or thing.
Is a relief printing place cast in a mold made from composed type or an original plate.
For example:
There are some traditional holiday we must celebrate. Or in some certain family have to celebrate some special thing.
I think stereotype always in our life. Imagine your mind as the stereoplay back of your computer. This goes for everything in life. I see heavy black clouds and my stereotype says"rain" and i get my umbrella before i leaving the house.

We always meet something hard to tackle. Most people gave up when they meet problems. Some of them want to success, keep trying to tackle the problem that they meet. In the story, if i am one of the member of the team on out of the wild. I will miss my family for sure. And i already tell myself:" i cannot do this." "Should i give up now?" a thousands times. But i know what i am doing, and what i am going to achieve. I would never give up. I won't leave my teammates fight with nature alone. I am part of team, and i have responsibility to takle different problems with my teammates. I will tell myself" we are the best!"

There are many these kind of people in the world. For example, Liar or betrayer are these kind of people that always exist in the world. The people who promise something but cannot going to do the things that he promised before. It's definition of the Liar and Betrayer. In my life i have meet a lof of these kind of people. One of my friend in middle school. Try to lie to me, when i find out that she was lie to me the whole time, i was really mad and really sad. My best friend was lie to me the whole time. When you are say one lie to others, you have to say a hundred more lie to help you hide your lie that you say before. When i meet these kind of people, i find out that i cannot always totally trust others.

Preparing for and taking exams
As far as i think Preparing for and taking exams are also very important for us. First of all, we should stay healthy. No matter how much works you have, you have to save the time to relax. There is a good way that you can break up the work. Always remember that do not try to do all your assignment or studying everything in one night. At the same time, we have to be organized. Make yourself a list, what do you want to study today. Then just follow the list to prepare your exams. That is a easy way to do well on your exam if you follow your list. I always do that way, and i can tell hat it is really helpful. Try it, then you can find the answer when you are taking the test. When we are going to preparing the exam, we can try to study with classmates. Having a study group, help each other. Those skills really will help us a lot when we are going to college. Because we know more about how to organize our times and how to studies.

John F. Kennedy
John F . Kennedy address (1961) is well known around the world because that he think about the people and make promise for the citizen of the United State. At the same time, i think this is really good sentence that i want to write it down (ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country) For pathos: i find on the third paragraph that he say he proud of our ancient heritage) He make people love him and support him. For ethos: I find on the second paragraph which John F. Kennedy win the trust from the American's people. He know what american people need, and he is trying to help them. For logos: I find on the second page, started at: Let both sides........control of all nations. He used evidence to support his argument.
