//1. I'm good at tennis and art because I get to get better and better at each day at it. 2. I feel happy and excited while doing it, because I probably get to do something new.// //3. I would feel sad and mad because I wouldn't get to do the thing Iike to do. I would be sad and I wouldn't get to have any thing to at my spare time.

1. The problems that presented the problem was that Tao loves art, but it's taboo if your not the chosen one. Also another problem is that the wolf doesn't want to eat, but it is starving.

2. For the first conflict I would find a solution by finding a way to draw, like find a way to become the chosen one. For the second conflict I would see what's wrong with the wolf. If I find something wrong with the wolf I would solve it.

Chapter 2

1. The two important events that happen the leader, Volt told Tao where was the rabbit but Tao left it at the cave, but Tao told him he left it at the slough. Volt told him to get it. When Tao went to the cave it wasn'tin the cave. A hyena took it. Then he took a torch and were looking for one.

Another conflict is when he found the little wolf. Then he checked if the wolf had something on his mouth because last time in chapter one Tao gave a field mice and he did not want it. He did have something in his mouth. Tao tried to take it out. He barely tugged on and the little wolf cried and yelped. Then Tao tried again and he finally took it out. Then he told the little wolf to go back with the other wolves so it won't be left behind. Then the wolf left.//

1. What Tao and Ram learn is how to hunt animals like rabbits. 2. The decision that Tao told is Volt hunt for food by himself. 3. If I were Volt I would be mad at Tao's decision because he's disobeying my rules. I would let him go by himself but if he did not bring any food he wouldn't eat or come back. If he did bring food I would let him eat let him relax for a little while. If I didn't like his actions I would have to make him hunt until he brings back about four rabbits or anything else to eat. This what I would do if I were Volt.

One of the situations I would choose is the college one. If a girl wants to go to college but her mom wants her to follow her footsteps. The girl wants to go to college but her mom wants her to finish highschool. The mother wants her to be a vet and she wants to teach her how to be a vet. My opinion is to follow your dreams follow them but be cautious. You my break rules but you will probably make a difference.

1. I think Graybeard changed his mind because he see's something in Tao. Like if he practices over and over he will get better. 2. This tells about hos character that he is kind inthe inside and tough at the outside. This also tells me that that he is generous and will teach Tao.

I do think Graybeard is a good because even though Tao isn't a chosen one he still helps him. Another reason is that Graybeard ia good teacher is how he teaches Tao. If Tao does something he will tell him immediately.

Well, yes because it will make work harder and I know it will be challenging but in order to suceed you need to believe. Anyway I am good at art.

Specials

Quote: pg.322 She finally realized how important you are. To the future. 4/2/07 And to me.

Explanation/Comments: Wow now David is, how do I say "in love". If his realing in love he should of said it early because right now she like Zane and not David. I guess this is what is called bad timing (wrong time and place). If Tally told David that she doesn't like him I think David would be embarrassed. Why did David have to say this write now, why now?

Quote: pg.333 Again and again, Tally pushed the rage down, clenching her 4/3/07 fists so hard it felt like her fingers would break.

Explanation/Comments: I could relate how Tally feels because I gotten so mad at times that my nails would actually leave a scare on my palm. It's hard to control yourself when mad at someone or at something and you just want to hurt it in any way. This makes me feel like it is okay to get mad at time but you have to control it or you will lose your mind.

Quote: pg.339 She lashed out a foot, catching Dr. Cable in the stomach and 4/4/07 knocking the breathe from her.

Explanation/Comments: You told her Tally. If I were Tally I would do the same thing because nobody can tell you that you're this or that. This makes me feel like people could hurt someone that they never expect of hurting. Like if someone bosses you around you will get mad and want to hurt them. I always to hurt someone but I always held myself back because I knew it was the wrong thing to do.

Quote: pg.351 She was trapped now, immobiluzed, and the city could take its 4/5/07 final revenge on her: grinding down her bones to reduce her to average pretty height; cutting the harsh angles from her cheeks; stripping out the beautiful muscles and bones, the chips in her jaw and hand, her lethal fingernails; replacing her black and perfect eyes.

Explanation/Comments: Wow Tally has t go through this just to be normal. She went through that surgery in the past and then just do another surgery to make you the way you were in the beginning. This makes me feel lke I should do any surgery in the future because I might regret it. I guess this what happens just to be like everyone else.

Quote: pg.360 The City Council had even changed the laws to let them keep 4/6/07 their morphological violations, for the moment, anyway.

Explanation/Comments: I guess everything is falling into place now. Now Specials are legal. This makes me feel like every story should have a happy ending. All the stuff Tally has been doing has actually made a difference to the world. Tally could finally be whatever her heart desires. Like would say what ends well, goes well.

Quote: pg.372 Be careful with the world,or the next time we meet, it might 4/9/07 get ugly.

Explanation/Comments: I guess this means that if something is going wrong Tally will be there to make it right again. Tally might be watching people so nothing will go wrong in any way.

Quote: pg.2 I hope you will grow up gentle and good, and never learn bad 4/10/07 ways.

Explanation/Comments: I guess the mother of this horse want's her little baby to be good and not to a bad horse. This makes me feel like, when my parents say that they love me they really really mean it. Bad things happen to bad people (like what should happen).

Black Beauty

Quote: pg.6-7 On came the dogs; they burst over the bank, leaped the stream, 4/11/07 and dashing across the field, followed by the huntsmen.

Explanation/Comments: Oh, that isn't good because they might kill an animal. This makes me feel very scared because what if they all they horses but who know's what will happen when they live the area. What will happen right now this is getting nerve-racking.

Quote: pg.19 I told him I never bit anything but grass, hay, and corn, and could not think what pleasure Ginger found in it. 4/12/07

Explanation/Comments: Why would a horse bite a person or another horse? I guess that horse has some serious problems around her. This makes me feel like I should be careful with certain horses because now that I know this some horses do bite. I guess some horses have a short temper and react differently to different occasions.

Quote: pg.31 There was no kind master like yours to look after me and talk to me and bring me nice things to eat. 4/13/07

Explanation/Comments: That sounds kind of messed up because in order to have a great, caring animal you have to care for it and treat it well because it will turn bad rebel against you. This makes me feel like if you don't treat an animal a certain way you won't get the behavior that you want to have. People may think if you don't teach an animal and leave to teach itself you get an animal that will want to dominate you wants to do whatever it wants and won't listen to you. That is not the proper way. That is way animals start biting people for no reason at all.
