From the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, people made a big improvement ether it is art, science, education, or culture, everything is slowly getting better. Through these two eras, we can learn from them, not to worship gods blindly. We must strive for a better life through our own efforts and live in the moment!

Mother’s love for us cannot be questioned. No matter when she always thinks of her children, even she is nearly dying, even her son wants to kill her, but she still thinks of her children.

In this story for some reason, his son could no longer take care of his elderly mother, so he decided to carry his mother on the mountain and kill her. Although he was sad, he went up the mountain. When they reached the top of the mountain, he found out that his How much mother loves him

In the story “The Aged Mother”, by Matsuo Basho, the author believes that Mother’s love is selfless, the paragraph that supports my claim is “The trembling mother’s voice was full of unselfish love as she gave her last injunction. “Let not thine eyes be blinded, my son.” She said. “The mountain road is full of dangers. LOOK carefully and follow the path which holds the piles of twigs. They will guide you to the familiar path farther down”” (Paragraph 6 Basho).

“Her son did not know the mountain’s many paths and his return might be one of danger, so she stretched forth her hand and snapping the twigs from bushes as they passed, she quietly dropped a handful every few steps of the way so that as they climbed, the narrow path behind them was dotted at frequent intervals with tiny piles of twigs.”(Paragraph 4 Basho).

These two paragraphs were good interpretations of the main idea of ​​the story. In this paragraph, although the mother knows that her son wants to kill her, she still thinks of her son. She is afraid that the road will be too difficult to walk and get lost. She picked a lot of twigs. Every time his son took a step, she threw a twig down so that her son would not get lost. Her mother still thought of her son before she died. This love is selfless, is unquestionable, although our parents are sometimes strict, they love us the most, we must understand them because they are thinking of us all the time, and willing to give everything for us.

Banning single-use plastic can save the sea animals’ life. Every year 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine mammals die from plastic pollution. the animals like the sea turtles, whales sea lions… already endangered. For example every year, over 1,000 sea turtles are killed by plastic waste in the ocean, this is because the turtles mistake the plastic of food. If ew still didn’t ban the single-use plastic the all the sea animals will die, the only thing in the ocean is plastic.

Banning single-use plastic can also save our lives. Some plastics become smaller and smaller after being break to a lot of tiny pieces by some hard things, that means turning into plastic particles, Some small fish only eat plankton. Many times they eat not plankton but plastic particles. Big fish eat small fish. We eat big fish. This is equivalent to eating plastic particles. If plastic particles enter my body, This is bad for our body, because it may block our blood vessels, and maybe we will die.

The government is hard to control the single-use plastic use. Plastic is everywhere in the city, but the government’s people are not everywhere so they don’t know if their still have people use plastic. In 2017 just china’s waimai and it used over 730 million, single-use plastic because now people are busy and lazy so they just order the food online, that why the governments are hard to control the single-use plastic.

Positive relationships are important to Percy, he and his mom have a good relationship. A t page 33 he said his mother is the nicest lady in the world that effect he have a positive relationship with his mom also have a positive relationship to their friends or family is good. There has a college student who reported having strong relationships were half as likely to catch a common cold when exposed to virus, while an AARP study with older adults found that loneliness is a significant predictor of poor healthy. More generally, a 2012 international gall up poll found that people who feel they have friends and family to count on are generally more satisfied with their personal health than people who feel isolated. Also, Percy he has a good relationship of his teacher, at page 2 Percy said, “But Mr. Brunner, our Latin teacher, was leading this trip so I had hopes.” that sentence effect Percy have positive relationships of his friends also adults, so Percy will have a healthy body. Also, that can prove positive relationships have impacts Percy’s regular life. 

ADHD impacted Percy’s attitude towards school. At pg.2 Percy said, “He was he only teacher whose class didn’t put me to sleep.” That sentence shows Percy always can’t focus on the class, it is not only not interested in class, but it also has no patience to listen to the classmates because he can’t control his words and deeds. ADHD’s symptoms include often losing items, not paying attention to details or making careless mistakes in school and not listening most of the time. Getting easily distracted and avoiding activates that require focus are also symptoms. Also, at pg.22 Percy blurted “thanks.” hyperactivity means being overly active. These symptoms include fidgeting playing quietly or waiting for a turn and blurting out answer in class. Percy always can’t control what he says. In the book he said, “Will you shut up!!!” (pg.5) to his classmate that sentence shows Percy in school always not listening most of the time also he often losing items, not playing attention to details or making a lot of mistakes and getting easily distracted and avoiding activities that require focus are, also symptoms. People with ADHD also do their best in stimulating environments. They like to be outdoors and move their bodies.  I think Percy need do more excesses that can help Percy freed his energy.
