NASCAR- Make a Connection
IN NASCAR, the book stated that the sport is a team sport, as each team member has his or her role on the racing team. If its the driver to being the one who changes the tires in super fast speeds. Each role is important and is needed to have a successful race. It reminds me of the sport, basketball. In basketball there are five people per team on the court at a time. There's the point guard who is responsible for bringing the ball court. Also, there's a big man who is responsible for getting points on the inside but also getting rebounds on defense and offence. This relation just reminded me of this sport.

NASCAR-Discuss a scene
It is known to all people that NASCAR'S racetracks are ovals. But most people do not known that all racetracks are different. Every racetrack's banking( upward slope at the end of each turn that allow driver to go faster on turns) has a different angle degree, so drivers have know what turn and lap they are on. This is why so many NASCAR drivers do this, its exciting for them in a way.As people may thinks NASCAR driving is easy and that's why many crashes happen at events.
NASCAR-Describe a Scene
The book I'm reading is not a story but more a informative reference where it tells me a lot about the history of NASCAR. The reason I said scene because it was a piece of information that was yet again unknown to me. Well if your reading this I bet you had no idea that the dashboard of a NASCAR car doesn't have a speedometer( tell how fast your going in mph or kph), or odometer( tells you how far you've have gone). The gauges show how hot the engine oil is and how hot the water is. Weird but yet true. This information nice to know as I read on every chapter, I learn a little something knew each time.

NASCAR-Describe a character
As i finished Chapter 1, I learned the history of NASCAR and where it was born. One person who I never knew was famous for what he brought to the nation was named William Henry Getty France also known as Bill France. Bill France IS the father of NASCAR. France was an auto mechanic and a racing fan who came into play when ticket sellers would skip out pay for the racers. He also built the famous Daytona International Speedway in 1959. I felt this was important information because I learned some thing new of our nation's history.
NASCAR-Authors purpose
Is I read the introduction I see that this book is a reference book. Its nonfiction and gives valid information. I don't know how recent this information is but its valid. I see that the authors purpose of this book, already by the introduction is to inform the reader or audience of the life NASCAR. Did you know that NASCAR is the fastest growing sport in the nation. From 1990 to 2000, the number of fans at racetracks rose by over 90 percent.

Macbeth-Discuss a scene
As I finish Act 5, the books ends with the dead of Macbeth. As Macduff finishes Macbeth with head on stick. And we see that Malcom who was rightfully fit to be King, is now king of Scotland. It was a fierce battle as it looked like Macbeth was getting the upper hand but Macduff puts all his rage and anger together to finish him off. The whole story was continued by the thought of Macbeth being king of all of Scotland.

Macbeth-Discuss a scene
As i finished Act 4, Macduff's son has been murdered. Macduff is anger and has set revenge on who ever has done this treacherous thing.
I wanted to discuss this scene because as Macduff has fled to England , away from the castle, his wife, Lady Macduff,escapes while their so has been murdered in cold blood. we are yet to know who are these three evil murderers, but as this happens more chaos will continue while Macbeth is King.

Macbeth- Discuss a scene
I just finished reading Act 2 and as it ended, someone has killed King Duncan. As I remember that was the plan of Lady Macbeth(to make Macbeth King instead) the whole time and it was to involve Lord Macbeth. The plan had involved blaming the Guards and the guards were killed for murder and treason.
I wanted to discuss a scene within the story. After King Duncan Killing his son,Malcolm, had fled to England as if he was being targeted. This left the title of King to Macbeth( Lady Macbeth plan the whole time) as Malcolm could not have it as he was put upon the suspicion of the deadly deed. Lady Macbeth's plan is going smooth as we still don't know who killed King Duncan.

Macbeth-Predicting Whats Next
I have starting to read the book, Macbeth, by William Shakespeare. As I have finished Act 1, I have got little info on what the story is about. As I ended the Act off, I saw that Macbeth's wife, Lady Macbeth wants to kill Duncan who is the king of Scotland. Her purpose of this is so that her husband can become king of both Scotland and Glamis.
My prediction of what's gonna happen the next Act is that Macbeth will murder the king. I make this prediction based on what Lady Macbeth had so persuaded Macbeth. About all the wealth and power he will have if king. Macbeth will fall to pressure to please his wife.
