THE BRAVE WORLD

CHAPTER 3

1.- What do you think about history?
Shoul it be taught at schoolsor is it irrelevant?

The history is impotant because help us to understand part from our past and show the diversity of every culture; beside the history is part of myself and help to develop a civic spirit,  also we can learn from  the mistakes of the past and be better in the future.

I tought that the history is a elemental subject becasue without this we couldn´t have a identity and like I said help us to develop a civic spirit in consecuence we can give our own opinion and criticize all the things of the social environment.

2.- In this chapter some entertainment activities are mentionated.

A ball thrown up so as to land on the platform at the top of the tower rolled down into the interior, fell on a rapidly revolving disk, was hurled through one or other of the numerous apertures pierced in the cylindrical casing, and had to be caught.
• The feelies: Is a kink of cinema but the difference is that you can feel the objects of the movie. I tought is like a 3D movie.
