Readers Response 2

TWILIGHT
PAGES: 1 - 13

The story Twilight the author uses hands grabbing an apple as the cover of the book and the title of the story is called Twilight. I think that the author uses this illustration and title because in the story Bella a girl that moved from Phoenix falls in love with a vampire. I think the apple represents blood because the Apple is very red like blood also a person bites a Apple just like a vampire. The title in the story is called Twilight, the reason I think that its called Twilight is because in the story the town that she moved to was always without sun so i think the town always looks like its in twilight. what i also think is that twilight means darkness and thats the time that vampires come out at twilight

listening passage mona lisa

http://www.harley.com/art/abstract-art/images/(davinci)-mona-lisa.jpg
one of the theories about Mona Lisa's true identity is that Leonardo DA vinci's was Mona Lisa himself. for example the text says that a scientist named Lilian sworts matched both Mona Lisa's and Leonardo DA vinci's portraits in a computer and see if they both have any facial comparison. this has became a theory for example in the text it says no one knows who Mona Lisa is. so most scientist and historians think this theory might be true.

do people really change?

I DON'T THINK PEOPLE CHANGE BECAUSE WHEN A PERSON WANTS SOMETHING TO HAPPEN FOR EXAMPLE PASS A GRADE THEY COULD HAVE TO WOK HARD AND NEVER STOP. FOR EXAMPLE IF A PERSON WANTS TO BECOME FAMOUS THEY WOULD NOT STOP. AND STILL BE THE SAME UNTIL THEY SUCCEED, BECAUSE IF A PERSON WANTS SOMETHING GOOD FOR THERE LIFE THEY WONT WANT TO BE LIKE THEY WERE BEFORE. ANOTHER REASON THAT I THINK PEOPLE CHANGE IS BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE HAVE HABITS AND ITS HARD TO LET HABITS GO. FOR EXAMPLE LIKE ME I ALWAYS TOUCH MY EARS AND NEVER STOP IVE BEEN DOING IT SINCE I WAS A BABY AND STILL DO SO THAT'S WHY I THINK PEOPLE NEVER CHANGE.

the winner is barack obama

election reflection

The image “http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/images/photo/2008/11/05/11052008_Accept/25698837.JPG” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. yesterday Barack Obama was elected president of the united states. now history teachers have a page to add in the history books. millions of people wacthed as Obama won the most important job in the world. my prediction for the next election is he might be picked again. I'm a john McCain supporter and wanted him to be the president. but yesterday i seen that Barack Obama is really loved by the people. the reason why i think this is the most historic election is that Barack Obama is African American and no African Americans have been elected as presidents of the united states. but from yesterdays results you can see lots of people don't care about race they care about the big issues these years. i think john McCain should have won but Barack Obama might do a pretty good job as president of the united states of America. he has good results for issues like health care. and taxes. yesterday i was surprised with Pennsylvania and Virginia also Florida and Ohio. those states were meant to be red states. and Florida was the state that made gorge bush in the past election win. that state made him the president of the united states.
