Why Do We Have To Pay Taxes

 Introduction

 Have you ever wondered why we have to pay taxes? Well this is why, we pay taxes or any form of taxes because the government needs it for running the country. A country can't be runned without money, they just don't go for the country they also go to national defense  (Army, Marines etc.) health care and many more things. We can't be here without taxes because it basically runs the country and provides protection for us. 
So without taxes we would be nothing.











Opinion

 In my opinion I think we should pay taxes because without that our country would not be here. Our counrty needs money to survive and so do others. Because of taxes we would not be here today, but taxes also play a negative roll. For example if you earn 100$ for your job all the taxes would bring it down and you would be left with only 80$. But all that money does not go for things that are worthless it all goes for our country and help support it. For example we would not be able to give soldiers weapons and things like that we also would not have any public schools. So I think that we should keep paying taxes for our country.




This video shows how it would be without taxes which would bring down the government.

Why do we have bones

Introduction

Have you ever wondered why you have bones? Well the answer is that you need them to move and more. For example the skull is very important it protects your brain without it your head would not be protected.
 It is very importent to have your bones without your bones you would almost be like jelly, you also can not walk do anything that involves movement. That is why you have bones in your body.

Opinion

In my opinion I think bones are very importent for your body. Bones are almost like a shell for your body, for example when you get hit on you head your skull protects you so you don't hurt your brain in anyway. Also our organs and heart and stuff like that would not be protected without our bones even the slightest fall can effect ant of those things if you did not have any bones. Even though an average adult has a total of 206 bones in there body every one of them has a reason to be in your body.





This song helps you memorize the main bones in your body in a fun way.


Most important bones in the body

1.
The skull is one of the most important bones, it protects your brain.

Commercial Techniques

Commercial Techniques 


Introduction

Above here is a commercial that uses the techniques called emotional appeal and transfer. By now you probably don't know what that means. Emotional technique is when they give of a feeling of happy,sad or ext. Transfer is when when you use it something amazing will happen. How they use these two techniques in this commercial is that they try to make you laugh when the hamster does funny stuff in the begging of the video,how they use transfer is that they try to say if you buy the car you will be famous like the hamsters at the end.The techniques are importent in the commercial because if you did not have something funny or sad they would not remember the commercial when they go out to buy a car.Also how the transfer technique is useful for them in this commercial is that if they did not use it then what is the purpose of buying if there is nothing special.


Opinion

I like the commercial above because it was very funny and tells you why to buy you the car, for example near the end of the commercial it show the three hamsters all famous and attractive because of the car.The strategies they used made me buy the product because since they used the emotional appeal when someone goes out to buy a car they might remember the car and thinks it is cool and then finally makes them buy the car.Also since they used the transfer technique at the end the hamsters were "special" so the people who are going to buy the car will buy the car and think they are going to be "special" or famous.I think they tried to targeted the people who want to be famous and love funny commercials.I do think the commercial will make money out of this car because people will start to remember of how "special" and famous you would be when you buy the car.

Introduction


110 million years ago a crocodile that was fearless of other dinosaurs roamed the water lands which is now a desert. It tared up other dinosaurs like the T-Rex and ate it for lunch. It was about 8 tons and 40 feet long, which is about 1 whole school bus. None of the dinosaurs even dared to go near the vicious crocodile including the T-Rex. Soon it had died out because of a meteor crash.Well after that their have been sightings of Super Croc. keep reading to read about the sightings and the kills of the new Super Croc.









My Opinion 


I think that Super Croc did exist and their has been more sighting about the crocodile. Although the "New Super Croc" is only half the size I think that it is still like a cousin for it because the Super Croc was 40 feet long and sightings say that they have seen 20-25 feet long. Also there has been sightings about Super Croc like in the documentary above. I belive that there are still relatives of the Super Croc out there and to prove it there has been sightings that have been video taped on put on T.V.








Top 10 Facts about Super Croc

1. Super Croc was about 8 tons
2. It ate other dinosaurs like the T-Rex
3. Ate anything it found
4. Males had a knob on their nose
5.Super Croc was discovered by a 2000 Niger expedition team
6. It lived twice as long as a normal crocodile
7.They roamed the Earth 65,000,000 years ago
8. A baby Super Croc was 15 feet long
9.The fossils came light 20 years ago
10. Overall the Super Crocodile had 100 teeth

More About The "New Super Croc"


There has been recent sightings about The New Super Croc. One in the Philippens it was about  20 or 25 feet long.It had ate a fisher man whole, later on they got the croc and got a pipe and put it down the throat and flushed water down the tube. This way they can see what the crocodile ate. After they caught it they didn't know what to do with it so insted the mayor dicided they would make a park for the crocodile and soon it became the biggest crocodile ever to  live.


Conclusion


I think that The "New Super Croc" is not dangerous at all it will only be dangerous if you mess with it.
I also think that other crocs aren't dangerous for example crocodiles cause 2000 deaths every year but think about it we kill more than that it is estimated we kill about 5000 crocodiles every year. So next time you read something about how dangerous they are think another time and see how many we kill.

2.
