Using 5 vocab words from packet page 20, write a paragraph about something that really annoys you.
Something that really annoys me is when adults nag on me being insolent to adults. Then when I answer "Okay, I will" cynically, they start nagging about my attitude. How I am stupor when it comes to manners toward adults. Once I was caught calling a rotund man "Roundy", and my mom started yelling at me with fervor. But I'm still rude to adults and I am still annoyed whenever my mom nags me about my attitude and my manners toward adults.

14. Most people like one particular animal more than others. Explain why your favorite animal is your favorite animal.

The particular animal that I like more than others is a tiger. Here's how I got to like a tiger. When I was about 6 years old. My mom took me to a zoo for animal classes since I was learning animals. We were walking up to the penguins when I heard a loud roar. I turned around and saw a tiger in its house (if you put it this way) roaring. I went up to it and said "Here kitty kitty kitty". The tiger started rolling around on its back and started playing around with me. That's when I started liking tigers.

I like tigers more than others b ecause they're tigers. They are the animals that played with me when I called them kitty. Tigers were the only animal I could think of when I was little (so going to the zoo for an animal class was unsuccessful). Also I likes the color orange back then so that's one of the reasons why I started liking them.

These are the reasons why I like tigers more than others. First because they played with me. Second because they were my favorite color. And third because they were who they were, tigers. :D

6. Think of your favorite year in school. Explain why it was your favorite year.

I think my favorite year in school was when I was in 6th grade. 6th grade was my favorite year because I could spend more time with my friends. We went on a lot of field trips and camps together. For example, my first field trip with my friends was w hen we went to Ever land (individually, not with the whole 6th grade). My favorite trip was when we went to SNET ( Seong Nam English Town) with the entire 6th grade for one week. Then we went to Gyeong Ju for 3 days which was one of my favorite trips.

6th grade became my favorite year because I was the highest grade in elementary. I know I have middle school and high school ahead of me, but just thinking that I was in the highest grade (even though it's only in elementary) made me feel happy. :D When I in a lower grade, me and my friends were always bossed around by 6th graders, and they would act so annoying. But as I became a 6th grader, it was my turn to boss kids around and annoy the kids younger than me. It made me feel like I had power over them. HA! I'm not trying to be mean, its just that it was so fun making kids listen to me. I could see why the 6th graders bossed us around when we were younger.

These are the reasons why I think 6th grade was my favorite year in school.
