There are two prisioners, wanting to be free (does not state it). The both of them are put away in two different rooms to be questioned, and both are offered a deal. If one tells on the other one, meanwhile the other one remains silent that person would go free and the convicted would be condemed 10 year to prision. If none of them talk both will recieve a six months jail term with a pretty low criminal records. But if both talk against eachother both will recieve a 5 year sentence. So this example is trying to find out what are the two prisioners giong to do. I predictted that both would going to remain silence, so it is going to be the easiest way out. But the selfish gene clearly contradicts with my self. Because this one states that both are going to talk condeming themselfs to a five year prision term.
If I was in that example I know the other one is going to talk, so I know I can not bet I am going to be free and the other ten years. The best cards I have to play are that the other prisioner stays silent, so both will spent a six months term in jail but not five years.
I do not agree with the selfish gene because this one is always trying to put the human as the worst thing that might ever touch the face of earth. The most clear example is its title. I do not say that humans are perfect. Humans clearly show a behaviour that sometimes it is not the apropiate one, but clearly human race it is not always wanting to step on others to get what it wants.

· Has not the noble experiment of a formal education for everyone failed? While we pay homage to the homily, "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink," we have pretended it is not true in education. (Sipher, n.pag)

Computer Lab Exsercise - Paraphrasing
1. Our immeasurable foundation of low thermal energies, the Antarctic, but, the counter way, our producer of high thermal energy is something which is very far away from our planet, the sun. This bright star in the immense of the outer space incredibly acts an spectacular force upon our weather. (Jacques Cousteau) This same man said “The cold ocean water around Antarctica flows north to mix with warmer water from the tropics, and its upwellings help to cool both the surface water and our atmosphere. Yet the fragility of this regulating system is now threatened by human activity." (Cousteau)
2. In the United States, there was a policy imposed by the federal government. The consumption of alcoholic beverages was prohibited during the 1920’s. Unfortunately, the local and national authorities did not give the importance of the case. One whiteness stated that there was a local pub where alcoholic beverages were distributed to the public. With this prohibition the only thing that the authorities met was with organized crimes. The authorities could not do anything against it, they almost seemed ineffective. During this time of confusion even traditional area music was forgotten, instead, jazz, a new popular tendency discovered, was starting to be played. New images of jazz started to be seen, some of them were: Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong, and Count Basie. There were other popular tendencies that demonstrated the United States of America was returning from a black past.
3. We might like to give a ride in our bicycles, but statistics had demonstrated us something really different. Injuries in our upper part of the body causes the highest death rate in this type of accidents. Out of the 1, 000.00 people killed in bicycles each year unfortunately 500 of them are kids between the ages of 5 – 18, during their class periods. Obviously there are ways to protect our life from this situation from great risk, like, using a helmet. In an accident, the helmet can be the one who determines if you live or die, this ones are specially designed to reduce the energy impact in your head.
4. When you see a panting of a deep scene, it may be that you are in front of an art work of H. Matisse. He has been catalogued of being the best artist to put the viewer in the real perspective of the seen. Matisse plays with the human senses, he makes us feel what he represents in his paintings.
5. The tallest building in the world, the miracle of engineering, the Sears Tower. This might be just the beginning for the race of the tallest building again. Expertise in the field do not think that they had reached their limit. But there is an interrogant, how is the tallest building going to be? There are experts who had over passed the Sears Tower, like Robert Sobel, who had designeda building over 750 mts high.
