~~SATIRE~~

Mark Twain uses satire in his essay. Satire is the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like in exposing, denouncing or deriding vice, folly. Twain provides six items of advice to the youth. Always obey your parents, be respectful to your superior, go to bed early;getup early, never handle firearms carelessly, be careful about lying. Obeying is the best policy according to Twain because if I don't they will make I. Most parents think they know better than I do, and I can generally make more by humoring that superstition than I can by acting own better judgment. Twain instructed the youth to avoid firearms and violence. Twain says don’t I meddle with old unloaded firearms ; they are the most deadly and unerring things that have ever been created by man. He'd rather no one set a hand on a gun to aim it at no one. Playing with firearms is very dangerous. He also says to be very careful about lying ; otherwise I am nearly sure to get caught. Once caught, I can never again be in

What Makes a good liar?

There are many lies told each day, those that do not affect the masses and those that do. Montaigne's Essay "on liars", states that no one is not conscious of having a sound memory should set up to be a liar. Liars either invent the whole thing, or they change the facts around. If a liar makes up a story, they apparently have much less reason to be afraid of tripping up. There is always going to be consequences for a person that lies if they do not know how to lie. If a lie is told, or is worded as propaganda, it may cause all kinds of consequences — even killing and causing nations to go to war. If a person tells the truth, they don't have to remember anything. Lying leads to killing , dislike, attitude, behavior issues and fights. A good liar should have an excellent memory. They should remember every detail of the lie. A good liar has to be careful to whom they lie to. If they lie to the wrong person, they might get hurt, killed, arrested or injured. A bad liar w

~WHY WE LIE?~

A liar is a person who is lying, who has previously lied, or who tends by nature to lie repeatedly. There are four types of lies. Which is fear, habit, modelling and overprediction. Most children lie because they're afraid of the consequences that maybe given. A child is very sentimental about things. No child enjoys getting punished. To try to avoid their punishment they will try to avoid the punishment with a lie. Lying can also become a habit formed through constant practice. A person could be use to lying about every little thing. From one time a child lied, it can become a habit. Children Tend to look up to older people. Many children have a role model. So if the person that a child looks up to lies all the time, the child might pick up these bad habits and start to lie. Children learn to lie though experiencing other lies. C hildren also lie because they overpredict a reaction. Because a child thought that the mother was going to tell them no they lie to try to

Alternative Energy

Alternative energy is a term used for an energy source that is an alternative to using fossil fuels. Alternative energy doesn't harm the environment. Alternative energy consist of Solar,wind,alternative fuel,wave,geothermal energy. Solar and wind power are generated far away from the real consumers.Wind energy is worked with the wind. Texas is one place that is providing alternative energy. The World Bank approved $9.5 million to fund renewable energy electricity supplies. “Solar” is the Latin word for “sun” and it’s a powerful source of energy. We can use solar power in two different ways: as a heat source, and as an energy source. We can also use solar energy to make electricity. The process is called photovoltaic . Photovoltaic energy is the conversion of sunlight into electricity. Solar power is a good way to conserve energy. Solar heating has been used for thousands of years to warm solar thermals. Solar panels have no moving parts. You just mount them out in the

According to Gore, there is a 75% chance that with only 5 years the entire North Pole ice cap will completely disappear during the summer. Gore's main point is to not offer old solution to each crisis separately. If we replace carbon based fuels with solar power, wind power or even geothermal power the earth will be a cleaner and safe place. Al Gore wants "To free use from the crisis that are holding us down and regain control of our destiny". Gore's main Challenge is to commit to producing 100% of our electricity from renewab
