The Many Aspects Of Streets
.... may be miles long or only a hundred feet. Streets often connect to other streets, or they can be dead ends, leading to nothing but tees and houses. What a street leads to also affects the amount of activity the street has. When a street ends with only houses, as in a neighborhood, often the travelers on the road live there. Therefore, main streets and routes have much more activity because they lead to places. Each of these factors determines the form of a functioning street.
Streets also have uses .....

Thomas More's Ideal Society
.... to me. Why does someone have to be a farmer? This would mean that whoever did not want to farm was forced to. That is slavery. What about all the other things that a community needs to survive?

It seems that farming to provide food for the community is Moore’s main concern. However, if he was really concerned about the people, his society should not .....

My Mother And Me
.... for the family while the females watched the kids. I, on the other hand, passed the eighth grade and went on to graduate from high school.

Now days, some women are supporting themselves and their families because they got a higher education. It wasn't thought to be ethical to do that when my mother was in school.
When it comes to work .....
