“There are so many more. I received all of those, when I was selected. And here in this room, all alone, I re-experienced them again and again. It is how wisdom comes. And how we shape our future.” And “They were satisfied with their lives which had none of the vibrance his own was taking on. And Jonas was angry at himself, that he could not change that for them.”
“The next morning, for the first time, Jonas did not take his pill. Something within him, something that had grown there through the memories, told him to throw the pill away.” And “For a contributing citizen to be released from the community was a final decision, a terrible punishment, an overwhelming statement of failure.”
“There was just a moment when things weren’t quite the same, weren’t quite as they had always been through the long friendship.” And “He liked the feeling of safety here in this warm and quiet room; he liked the expression of trust on the woman’s face as she lay in the water unprotected, exposed, and free.”
“No one mentioned such things ‘it was not a rule but was considered rude to call attention to things that were unsettling or different about individuals.” And “The daily training continued, and now it always included pain and agony.”

Can someone please write a argumentative essay please? About why students should be more active and be in outdoor activities.
No plagiarism please cause I would get in trouble if i used something was plagiarism.
Will give brainilist.
The great outdoors, all of us could use some time to go outside and enjoy the nature itself, back in the 90's that is. With the invention of social media and videos games students wont really be going to the park anymore, but talking on a smartphone while playing videogames. Although many students are in sports programs or P.E, Schools should push there students to be more "well rounded"
Doing excersise should be slightly enforced by every school, considering the fact That you need to be healthy, but most schools let you cancel P.E and use it for another elcective class. Point is schools dont enforce the kind of physical stature they want on their students. And parents or guadians should also take part in this excersise craze, by signing up there children to outdoor sports or martial arts dojo's they can learn to socialize, use teamwork, and disipline. But This can come with many cons as well as pros.
Although most of us got signed up for sports at some point, some of us really didnt like it and saw it more as a game and less as an excersise. On top of that most parents also had to drive us there wasting gas, and the(usually) monthly fees that came with outdoor activities, and these prices would start to increase. If schools want us to excersise, they have got to start pushing it on students.
But then again this all depends on the type of student, and what there intrests are. But most students who are involved in a team sport or any other physical activity usually dont need these rules to be enforced. But students who did not want to go to physical activities should at least be tempted to do so by schools.
Should students go outside? Yes. Should we force it upon them. Slightly. Pushing students to pursue thier careers is the whole point of school. To find your intrests and your passions. And if doing excersise isnt something you like, then don't do it. But schools should enforce the idea that your body will appreciate your healthiness more long-term.

Read the story Hummingbird and Heron:
Many years ago, when the world was so young that the sun was still new in the sky, there lived two friends. Heron was large and slow, with a long, gangly neck and big, floppy wings. Hummingbird was tiny and swift, with wings that moved so quickly that they buzzed and a slender beak as sleek as a needle.
Heron and Hummingbird both loved to eat fish from the river. Every morning, Heron would fish to her heart's content, eating until her stomach was so round and heavy that she had to waddle back to shore. Every afternoon, Hummingbird would fish and feast until he was so heavy that his tiny, buzzing wings could no longer keep him in the air. Heron and Hummingbird thought they were the luckiest birds in the world.
One afternoon, Hummingbird did not catch as many fish as usual. He fished and he fished, but his line came up empty more times than it ever had before. He flew to Heron's house.
"Heron! Heron!" he called. "Why have you eaten all the fish?"
Heron bustled to her door, angry and surprised at her friend's accusation.
"Me? Eat all the fish?" she squawked. "I barely caught anything this morning! My poor stomach has been growling all day."
The two birds began to argue over who had eaten more fish. Finally, Hummingbird raised his wing to stop the debate.
"I do not think there are enough fish left in the river for both of us," he said. "Let's have a race. Whoever reaches the dead tree on the other side of the hills first owns all the fish. The loser has to find something else to eat."
Heron agreed. They prepared to race. Hummingbird was certain that he would win. He watched Heron as she awkwardly stretched her wings and prepared to fly. This will be like catching fish in a barrel, he thought with a grin.
Hummingbird zoomed past Heron as soon as the race began. He flew so far ahead that he lost sight of her behind him. He slowed down as he passed a patch of wildflowers. They smelled so sweet that he had to stop and look at them more closely. Hummingbird just had to try some of their nectar. He drank until his belly was heavy and his eyelids drooped. Perhaps just a short nap, he thought, as he settled himself into a nest of soft leaves.
It was late in the day when Hummingbird woke up. He stretched his wings and glanced at the sky. He could just make out the shape of Heron, flying slowly but surely toward the dead tree. She was almost done with the race! Hummingbird zipped into the air and flew as fast as he could, but it was too late. Heron reached the tree first. From that day forward, Heron owned the fish, and Hummingbird lived on nectar.
What is the theme of the story Hummingbird and Heron?
A. A full stomach is not as important as friendship.
B. Don't get distracted by fresh fish when racing.
C. Sharing shows care for others.
D. Slow and steady wins the race.

Read the article "The Wolves Among Us".
Beagles, greyhounds, German shepherds, and even tiny toy poodles are all related to the same majestic wild animal, the wolf. In fact, all domestic dogs are descended from wolves. There are several species of wolf, including the gray wolf, the arctic wolf, the red wolf, the white wolf, and the Mexican wolf. Wolves are some of the most widespread mammals. Populations of wolves exist in almost as many places around the globe as humans do.
Wolves are exceptional pack hunters. This is why they are able to take down large prey such as moose or deer by working together as a seamless team. Wolf pups as young as eight months old begin helping on the hunt. Wolves can reach speeds of up to 40 miles per hour when chasing prey, and their thick, double-coated fur enables them to keep warm in even the coldest arctic temperatures. Their large, powerful paws can reach up to 5 inches across and help to propel them quickly across the snow.
Next time you're playing fetch with your furry friend, think about its ancestor, the wolf. That terrier or pug might only be able to take down a ball or a bone, but it gained its instincts to chase and hunt from those greatest of hunters, the wolves.
Select the statement from the passage that shows how a wolf ancestry helps dogs that spend a lot of time outside in the winter. (2 points)
