A revolution not really worth attempting (Change+Continuity):
The French Revolution is often talked about for its ideas of freedom, fairness, and togetherness. But in the end, it seemed like France just went in circles. Even though it kicked out the king and started new ideas, it ended up with another powerful leader. Instead of fairness, there was fighting and chaos, and Napoleon took charge as emperor in 1804. France went from having a king to trying out a republic, then going back to having a king again. It’s like, the more things changed, the more they stayed the same. The Revolution started with big hopes, but in the end, it felt like nothing really changed. There were good things, like getting rid of the king, giving people rights, and making education better. But there were bad things too, like the Reign of Terror, Napoleon being bossy, and money problems. Even with all the struggles, some things stayed the same, like rich people being in charge, unfairness still being around, and people feeling like they belonged to France. So, the Revolution left behind a mix of good and bad, with some things never really changing.
“Google It,” authored by Anna Crowley Redding, unfolds a comprehensive history and evolution of Google. Narrated through the lens of two college students, Larry and Sergey, initially working on a university assignment, the book traces their journey as they transform a simple homework project into one of the world’s most influential and powerful companies, overcoming challenges along the way.
CENTRAL IDEA / THEME
The central idea of this book: “Google It” delves into the history of Google, highlighting significant advancements and tactical choices that helped the company grow from a garage-based startup to a multinational technology behemoth. In the book, the obstacles, discoveries, and pivotal events that molded Google’s corporate culture, technological developments, and influence on how we access and manage information in the digital age are all covered.
“Google It” delves into the idea that constant innovation, dedication to user-centric design, and a readiness to pick up lessons from mistakes are vital life lessons that not only drove Google’s success but also provide us with useful guidelines for negotiating opportunities and challenges in our own lives.
That’s what I have discovered from the book , it tell us to pick up lessons from failure and to not give up while you are at the downside of your life. In our own life, we can learn from Larry and Sergey that desire of not giving up, making a wiser choose for your life.
If you want to be a entrepreneur I recommend you to read this book, and it better helps you to learn about leadership control of a company and the concepts of user centric-design.

As I started reading this book, I noticed that all of the effects that Google has today were the result of important factors that shaped the company’s development. A major issue that Larry and Sergey discovered was that it was too difficult to obtain and find information at the time.neither on a poorly designed search engine with a ton of advertisements and inaccurate search results.Alternatively, your information might be in a book, on a book shelf, or elsewhere in a library.Thus, Larry and Sergey discovered a method for downloading all of the web data and building a sizable, highly accurate search engine on their own.
So “Backrub” was created as an effect, and that as a cause, their search engine is becoming well known in their school…..
Theme: Problem-Solving in Real Life
In our own lives, the theme of problem-solving is evident as we encounter challenges and inefficiencies. Much like Larry and Sergey identified a significant problem in accessing accurate information, we often face obstacles or deficiencies that hinder our progress or satisfaction. The realization of a problem prompts us to seek solutions and improvements.
Just as Larry and Sergey observed the difficulty in accessing information through inefficient search methods, we too may find ourselves grappling with inadequacies in various aspects of our lives, be it personal, professional, or educational. The initial step lies in recognizing these issues and acknowledging the need for change.

In this multimedia found poem, we dive into the intricate conflicts present within Langston Hughes‘ short story “Thank You, Ma’am.” The central characters in this narrative are Roger, the protagonist, and Mrs. Luella Bates Washington Jones, who can be seen as both a secondary antagonist and a guiding force. The story features two types of conflict: external and internal. The external conflict happens in the opening pages (pg1,2) as Roger, driven by his challenging circumstances, attempts to snatch Mrs. Jones’s purse. Their physical confrontation is portrayed in lines such as “A boy ran up behind her and tried to snatch her purse,” and “The large woman simply turned around and kicked him right square in his blue-jeaned sitter.” Meanwhile, the internal conflict takes center stage in the climax of the story. Spanning pages 3, 4, and 5, Roger grapples with his emotions and inner dilemma, torn between fleeing to escape consequences or staying to honor the trust Mrs. Jones has extended to him. Phrases like “he looked at the door,” “looked at the woman,” and “he could run, run, run” capture this internal conflict. The multimedia poem’s visual representation effectively mirrors these conflicts. The top section of the poem captures the external conflict, illustrating the moment when Roger tries to steal the purse. Meanwhile, the lower section vividly portrays the internal conflict, with an open door symbolizing the inclination to escape and an extended hand symbolizing the choice to remain and honor Mrs. Jones’s trust. Through this multimedia-found poem, we illuminate the dual conflicts within “Thank You, Ma’am,” highlighting the protagonist, the secondary antagonist, and providing a clear elucidation of the external and internal conflicts using illustrative examples from the text.
