How the snake got poison

Do you believe in what you read. Well in this book How the snake got poison by Zora Neale Hurston is a good funny little short story. I recommend this book to not so little kids maybe 10 to 13, in the book there's a snake a few animals poison god and some people. Its not so religious but it tells the readers a silly way of how the snake got poison.

I think this book. Is good it makes you feel like your really in the book not like other where your reading but your mind is on another thing. I know that happens to me. I really like this book because its something that can make you smile and also its something that really funny.

There is not so much people in this book there is God a snake some animals and of course a snake. What happened is that he was of being trampled on so he went up to god and told him, so god gave him poison. That wasn’t a good idea to give him poison, but he did anyway.


later in this short story the snake goes berserk with the poison and killing anything in site. So the animals went to god and complained so god summon the snake and god gave him a bell on his tail and if someone gets close ring your bell and if their smart they will be careful if they get closer it you and the homo homo sapien. And that’s how the snake got poison.

Best childhood memory

My favorite childhood memory would be actually something really funny. I was about 5 or 6 when we were in Ohio and I was learning how to ride my bike with two wheels, and its like the most scariest thing when I was little. So I was riding it and it was probably my 3rd week of learning so I thought I didn’t need gear on, but when I was riding down my side walk my dads car wasn’t parked in all the way so I was riding my bike and I ran right into my dads car my bike bounced of and I went fling in the air and I hit the grass, I was maybe a foot away from hitting concrete. And then I learned to always watch were you’re riding and where a helmet. So if you almost had the same experience comment and tell me what happened about you!

I remember this because this might not be funny to yall but it was funny to me. Ihad another one we went on a crusie and it was awesome we went to belize and jamaica, in belize we went cave tubing there was this hill that was high and i had to jump into my tube and i did i got a prize it was a free pinapple, that my seem funny but its not they are great there so juicy and deliouse. In jamaica we walked around and did stuff it wasnt has fun as belize though.


This is some of belize

Chapters 4-6 for Hunger Games

What if you’re getting ready to kill someone but your great friends with them? Well haymitch who is a winner from the hunger games is really drunk. Peeta and Suzanne went down to haymitch for advise they got a no at first but haymitch thought and made them a deal it was they let him drink where ever and whenever he wants and he will teach them moves. When they got to district 1 Suzanne knows the only reason why people are here is because it’s a death match, she didn’t take it well but peeta took it well know she’s thinking if the bread was a trick or not.

Suzanne and peeta are getting ready for the game, but for the first match you have to dress nice and something that represents your district and for their district its coal mining. There were many costumes that have been worn by their district but the one that was the worst was one were that they had the girl naked with black coal. At first Suzanne thought for sure that she was going to be naked, but done with their cape…………..that turned on fire when they go the arena peeta was flirting. At first she went with it but she thought to herself, he’s trying to make me an easy target but she kissed him on the cheek where is bruise was.

When Suzanne and peeta got home they started to eat and this girl came up named anoxia which is a person who committed a crime so they cut their Tung off so they cannot speak. But Suzanne remembered her from somewhere she just doesn’t know where. When they were done eating they went to watch TV and every one that was their was on guard no one was to close to anyone or too far away. After that peeta and Suzanne went up stairs to the roof and they tried to jump off but they were electrified

Essay response for chapters 1-3 hunger games

A place that was North America is now known as Panem. The characters live in district 12 other known as the seam. So far Suzanne has lived through starvation. Once every 500 years their district they pick 12 boys and 12 girls. Effie who draws the names who go first and the kids, and she out of 11 girls picked Suzanne little sister prim. Whoever wins the hunger games gets showered with food for a whole 500 years.

Suzanne took prims’ place and stopped the arena; they never get a volunteer because the hunger game is a death mach. When Suzanne was ready to go up their she started to shed a few tears. When the name was called who she had to kill (or at least try) she had a flash back. It was one were her opponent he was trying to give the bread to her but the mother is very strict about him hanging around with the poor even though he’s poor, his father owns a bakery. That didn’t stop peeta from giving her bread to her they were set for a least a week. After Suzanne’s father died in a mine accident her mother was to desperate to even get out of her bed, but Suzanne was able to get her to eat, then she snapped out of her flash back she’s in reality now and she knew she had to kill the boy.

Before they started to fight they had to go to a bigger district because this was going to be a good mach so it took them one day to get to district 1 they have never rode in a car so it was new for them. When they got their they was a big feast it was also new for them too after that they went swimming but peeta ended up puking in the pool.

What if the dead came to life and could not die? Well when we behold the terrible loss of so many young lives, when we see so many physical of intellect and of glorious promise pitilessly cut off in their first flower, we are on the verge of despair. Never before have the fairest energies and aspirations of men been flung recklessly and incessantly.

For more than twelve months, on every battlefield, where the bravest, the truest, the most ardent and self-sacrificing are necessarily the first to die and where the less courageous, the less generous, the weak, in a word less desirable, alone possess some chance of escaping for over twelve months a sort of monstrous inverse selection has been in operation. One which seems to be seeking the downfall of the human race.

The problem is certainly one of the darkest that have ever the minds of men. It contains a material truth before which we remain defenseless and, if we accept it as it stands we can discover the evil that threatens. On the other hand, mankind appears to be such a necessary and indestructible force of nature that has always, survived the most desperate ordeals, but succeeded in benefiting by them and emerging greater and stronger than before.

We know that peace is better than war; it was horrible to compare the two. We know that, if this cataclysm let loose by an act of unutterable had not come upon the world, mankind would have reached a wonderful achievement it is impossible to foreshadow. All those forces of wisdom, patience, honor and self-sacrifice which increase day by day and which we ourselves, who are far from the field of danger, feel rising within us without knowing whence they come are nothing but the souls of the heroes gathered and absorbed by our own souls.

Death does not injure life it is powerless against it. Life never changes. What death takes from those who fall enters into those who are left standing? But the flame rises higher. Death is in no wise the gainer so long as there are living men. The more it exercises its ravages, the more it increases the intensity of that which it cannot touch; the more it pursues its phantom victories, the better does it prove to us that man will end by conquering death
