The story deep water was a good story because it teaches a life lessen that if you can't swim learn how to before you go into the water. You also shouldn't go into the water if you are unsupervised by an adult. This relates to me because of the time I went into the pool without my mom but luckily there was a life guard near by to watch and then it happened I went in the deep end and went under water I was panicking and almost drowned.
When I first read this story I thought holly cow this really happened to a kid. But the author did do a good job writing the story. But the part when the kid threw him in was just flat out mean I mean seriously what kind of jerk would do something like that. My favorite part of the story is when he concurs his fears and swims the entire lake. This relates to me when I am playing hockey like when we played our other B team for the first time and we tide 2,2 we were so upset. Then the second time we played them I scored two goals and my friends scored the other 2 and the other b team only scored 1.
In the story deep water the author that the water incident happened to him I like the confidence he should after he was dunked. He buckled down and conquered his fears so he could get his confidence back and start to swim again. He worked so hard to swim again and in the beginning his legs felt nom and lifeless so the trainer attached a rope to him and let him bounce against the side of the pool.
In conclusion the story deep water was an okay story considering the fact that it is true. The best part in the story is when he trans with the trainer and swims the lake.

the pearl essay
The Pearl
The story the pearl was written by Steinbeck is a tragedy plot line. The way the story falls into play is why it follows the plot line. The reasons I think that is because of the plots I have made follow the tragic mode of literature.
The form of the story is definitely a tragedy plot because of the time Kino beat up his wife. The greed of Kino for the pearl made him an animal. There was also a part where Kino hears a person walking out side of his T.P. then he jumps out and stabs the guy tosses Kino and he hits his head and it starts to bleed.
At the end of the story Kino sees the evil in the pearl he also sees himself and his family dyeing in a cave. So he threw the pearl as far as he could and watched it plop down in the ocean because he did not need the pearl because of the evil.
In conclusion to the story it was good but kind of short story. I also like the rifle men in the end. But the best part is when he hits the guy with the knife.I did also liked the end when he got rid of something he loved because it was taring him apart. In my thoughts this was a good story.

the pearl
my final thoughts on the pearl I thick the pearl is an okay story. But the way the story ended was kind of weird how the guy with the rifle thought that coyoto was a coyote and he shot him then kino looked into the pearl and saw him and his family dieing in the cave. then they killed the rifel man and took his rifle.
Then at the very end of the story he throws the pearl as far as he could and saw it sink to the bottom. The reason he threw the peal is of all the bad things the pearl has done to them.

pearl reflection
It is an okay story so far and kind of confusing some arts are weird and Dum. The characters are usually sad our mad. The story gets bloody words chapter 3 because Kino stabs a guy with a knife and Kinos head hits a rock and starts to bleed. Then the doctor poison the kid and the same day he comes back and heals the baby just so he could get more money.
The pearl
The pearl will destroy Wanna and Kino because they think the pearl is good but what they don't realize is the things it has done ever since they found the pearl. The good things it has done is it has brought them good fortune which is good if you are in need of any assistance. But the greed of some people drives you mad sometimes which will kill from time to time.
