The Crisis No. 1- Thomas Paine

This article was written by Thomas Paine, it is talking about how American had fought for their own rights with British. Thomas Paine had mentioned about how British people treats Americans, they went into their house stole everything they want, killed people, and destroyed their house. British had taken away lots of people’s life, because of British’s action, they decided to stand strong and fight for their own rights and own freedoms. I think Thomas Paine is a great writer, his speech was powerful, and it had influenced lots of people. In his speech, he persuaded American to do the right things, stop waiting and fight for what they deserve to get, although they America had a revolution war with British, but it had created a better life for American today. After reading this article, I think we should learn from Thomas Paine, we shouldn’t give up something we want, although it might be difficult but if we try our best on it, and fight for it maybe we will success.

Dr. Heidegger's Experiment

Dr. Heidegger is a physician; he had invented the water call “fountain of youth”, the potion can let people to become young again. One day Dr. Heidegger had called his friends and tested about the magic potion. They were too happy about the magic potion so they made some stupid decision, at the end they had messed up everything. Dr. Heidegger had also learned some mistakes from his old friends, but his friends were to crazy about the magic potion so they decided to go to Florida to find the “fountain of youth” .The facts shows that his friends did not learn from their own mistakes. After reading this story I think we should think before we do something, otherwise you will regret when you get old, we can’t go back and change the mistakes, there is no chance to make everything perfect, but you can have to chance to try your best at present. Also do something you won’t feel regret. Mistakes can make people stronger but you have to remember your mistakes and try your best to change it, not sitting there and wait for the chances to come and solve the problem for you, I think this is a really interesting story, and I enjoy it.
