someone who comittes a crime should apsulutly be punished (even Sydney)becuse if you don't punish them the first or second time they will just keep doing it. Although I think that it shouldn't be as harsh as it was in England (death) more like 6 mounths of, Oh, I don't know like cummutity service. (Believe me my road could us the help!)
1.no
2.mabey depends on the crime
3.no
4.yes
5.sometimes
ok now living does mean awlay changeing. life would be realy boring if it didnt change somtimes.you know you move to dinnfrent places,you eat dinnfrent foods,you meet new people.life is soposed to change. rember life rocks out loud.
The one I chose is "Living means always changing." The reason I chose this one is because it is true. Every time someone dies another person is born. If this didn't happen the earth would become over populated. Also, if you didn't die you would miss all your friends.
I am going with #2 and #4. The reason I am going with #2 is because everyone should be punished if they commit a crime except kids under 18. The other reason I am going with #4 is because in your life you always change.
It would be wonderful to live forever. I think this wonderful because your family wont cry because you wont die. The down side of it will be you seeing your whole family die. One more thing is that your family will never end and you will be the oldest person living. The next to last thing is if you don't eat you wont die. The last thing is you could kill get shot and do anything you wanted to do whenever you wnted to.
I would not want to live for ever. I would like to die. I would want to die because when I die I will go up to heaven. Then I would live for ever up in heaventigers09
It would be wonderful to live forever because you would never have to worry about dying.You wouldn't have to be careful not to get hurt. You wouldn't have to worry about eating to live because you could never die no matter what. I think it would be nice because you could do anything you wanted, and you would have all the time in the world to do it. Anything you ever wanted to do, you could do it because you would have an unlimited amount of time.
I don't agree with the statement "Whenever you see an oppertunity to make money, you should take it." because if the oppertunity might be an operation ran by a kidnapper on maybe even a person like Zack's Dad in Tangerine. If you get in the wrong kind of buisness you could get in LOTS of trouble. Plus if you get too greedy for money then you could just go wacko and KILL someone over money. If you already have enough money to get around and a little extra then you should not take it. Someone that doesn't have very much money will need the oppertunity more than you. But, if you just jump at the oppertunity then that person might not get the chance to make the money that they NEED.
I agree with number 2. The reason why I agree to number 2 because i always get grounded. Sometimes if people commit merder should be killed. If somebody steals from somebody else, i think that the person that is the victom should steal from the person who stole from them. this is geting hard to think of something to say. that is all I have to say.
I think that number 2 is right because if you do somthing you are not supposed to you should have to pay the consequences. If you dont have a punishmentfor the things you did wrong you will just keep doing it over and over. Doing the crime and not getting punished is not the right thing to do. The world would be a very bad place if no one got punished. The world would be a very bad place because people would just keep doing bad things over and over. I strongly agree with chioce number two.
i think it would be awesome to live forever u could see aloght of stuff around the world you could become rich u could do just about anything u want but it may not be awesome to live forever after u have seen everything it isn't much fun any more and people might start to wonder why u have been around for so many years people may start to wonder how old u r r u supose to say how old u really r or tell a lie u couldn't tell people u were 3hundred or some years old it would be hard to live forever i would like it but sometimes i wouldn't if you like had such a bad injury that u should have died wouldn't people get curiouse about why u weren't really even scratched i would be really curiouse if someone fell really hard like when they were climbing a tree and they were really high up and they fall down really quickly and hard and they just got up and started to walk around like nothing even hapend
i agree with cole!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would not want to drink from the spring but if I had to I would. I would drink from the spring when I turn 16. I would drink it then because I would be a teen. Also I would be able to drive. Another reason is I like sports. When you are young you can be more active. So I could play a lot of sports and have fun.
