This question asks about your independent reading selection. you may use your reading selection to you answer the question. what impact did your independent reading selection have on you as a reader? would you recommend your selection to a friend? why or why not? support your response with at least two pieces of evidence from your independent reading selection. be sure to give the title and author of your selection.

What impact did your Independent Reading selection have on you as a reader?

During my youth and I focused on reading books that can provide useful and trustful information about certain topics of my interest, for example during my youth I read "Go Ask Alice" by Beatrice Sparks and another important book was "Don Quixote" by Miguel de Cervantes . That kind of selection show me the path to become a true communicator and writer and understand what is happening around.

Would you recommend your selection to a friend?

Yes those mentioned books provides a good time of adventures and fun by "Don Quixote" and in "Go ask Alice" we have a young woman involved in an escalating situation of drug abuse.

1. My independent Reading selection has impact in my life in the way I see the life and the world.

2. Yes, I would recommend it because they can teach a little bit about the meaning of life.

Explanation:

My pieces of evidence are two books written by argentinian writers. One of my favourite novels is called "The ayes of the Siberian Dog" which is a short novel written by Antonio Santa Ana. The story is about a little boy who has a brother who suffers from AIDS. In this novel the author wants to show the love among two brothers and the importance of not judging a person just for an disease. The second book is called "The cowboy Martin Fierro" which is a long story written by José Hernández. It is a story about an Argentinian cowboy which tells the independent, heroic and sacrificed character of the cowboy.

So I would recommend both books to a friend because I think they can be usuful and they can teach a little bit about life in the society.

the earth’s crust is broken into separate pieces called tectonic plates (fig. 7.14). recall that the crust is the solid, rocky, outer shell of the planet. it is composed of two distinctly different types of material: the less-dense continental crust and the more-dense oceanic crust. both types of crust rest atop solid, upper mantle material. the upper mantle, in turn, floats on a denser layer of lower mantle that is much like thick molten tar.

each tectonic plate is free-floating and can move independently. earthquakes and volcanoes are the direct result of the movement of tectonic plates at fault lines. the term fault is used to describe the boundary between tectonic plates. most of the earthquakes and volcanoes around the pacific ocean basin—a pattern known as the “ring of fire”—are due to the movement of tectonic plates in this region. other observable results of short-term plate movement include the gradual widening of the great rift lakes in eastern africa and the rising of the himalayan mountain range. the motion of plates can be described in four general patterns:

collision: when two continental plates are shoved together

subduction: when one plate plunges beneath another (fig. 7.15)

spreading: when two plates are pushed apart (fig. 7.15)

transform faulting: when two plates slide past each other (fig. 7.15)

well it depends i think people around the world are coming around to gay marriage. but if you are talking abortion then wow, so much to talk about. such as men thinking they have the right to choose if women can, the fact there are health concerns if the women can't get one, and many more arguments to discuss. so i would definitely say abortion would be a much more interesting topic.
