Mr. Hong

9/17/2018 05:27:36 pm

@ Raymond / Adrian - I think what Raymond is trying to say is that you need to write a standard paragraph as stated in the post a response assignment.

I would grow up and try to be an electrical engineer for BC Cancer so that i can help make things for detecting cancer so that people can be better before it is too late. I would do this because i would be able to help people and save people's lives so that they can live a good life.

Olivia

9/17/2018 04:49:39 pm

＠Kevein I really like your writing, but I think you forget to capitalize one of your I.

@Kevin: you spelt your name wrong and you need to capitalize your 'I's.

Olivia

9/17/2018 04:59:13 pm

I would try to make some stuff toys for the children in the hospital. So when they are upset or lonely there is something to comforter them. I am doing this for the smile on their face. I think sometimes when people are ill, they feel unhappy and lonely. Especial for the little children when their parent can not be around, I believe it would be nice to keep they compony

Ariel

9/17/2018 05:24:27 pm

@Olivia Toys! That is a great idea! Although I think there are a few grammar mistakes inside your paragraph.

Max

9/17/2018 06:32:27 pm

@Olivia: I agree with Ariel. Making stuffed toys for the children in the hospital is an ingenious idea. There are a few grammar mistakes that I noticed:
➔stuffed, not stuff
➔parents, not parent
➔comfort, not comforter

Ariel

What Terry Fox did was amazing!
If I could do something for a cause like terry fox did I would raise money for the cure of cancer. WHO WOULD YOU DO IT FOR? I would do it for people all over the world who have cancer. WHY WOULD YOU DO IT? Well First of all it’s the least I can do. Second, I am not a doctor, so I can’t do that much stuff. I will have to start with the things I can do.

A Nick In The Woods

9/17/2018 05:56:44 pm

Great job, human, though I'm 97.6% sure your not supposed to capitalize the word "First" if it's not the beginning of your sentence

Ariel

9/17/2018 07:04:02 pm

@A Nick In The Woods Thanks!

Max

9/17/2018 06:34:57 pm

@Ariel: What Terry Fox did was truly amazing. I think you should add more sentences, and don't forget to capitalize Terry Fox! Enjoy the rest of your evening!

I want to be a inventer and invent a garbage shrinker so we could get rid of all the garbage and we don't have a garbage proplem anymore. I would do this for the world because this is a big proplem and we need to find a solution. I would do this because i want to help the world.

I would try to be a university teacher. The reason that why I would try to be a university teacher is that I like to teach people how to learn, and try to make the students like studying and laugh and think that study is actually pretty fun and cool.

Miranda

9/17/2018 07:16:10 pm

Everything makes sense and is clear. Maybe you could go back and fix mistakes, like study in the last line should be studying. Also, there should be no "that" in the first line. (The first one)

I want to make a fundraising community for people without their needs. This would be for the world, as poverty is a universal problem. I would do this so everybody(or at least a lot of people) without shelter, food or water can have what they need, and more people would have a happy life(probably)!

A Nick In The Woods

9/17/2018 05:49:22 pm

That didn't take me 40 minutes to post (Raymond). In fact, it only took me a little more than 5 minutes to post.

ray

9/17/2018 08:50:52 pm

I type slowly that is why

Miranda

9/17/2018 07:18:03 pm

Your paragraph is very descriptive, but maybe you could redo the first sentence because "without their needs" isn't how you use those words.

Breanna :-)

9/17/2018 06:15:06 pm

Helping others is amazing! Be like Terry Fox :-)

If I had to do something like Terry Fox, I would make blankets out of newspaper (it’s a thing). I would sell those to make money for MS. One reason I would make newspaper blankets because, you can make recycled blankets and it’s cheap to make many blankets for cheap also.

Max

9/17/2018 06:57:26 pm

Terry Fox is an amazing person! His run across Canada to raise money for cancer research has raised over 750 million dollars!

If you could do something for a cause like Terry Fox did, what would you do? If I could do something for a cause like Terry Fox did, I would start a worldwide organization to abolish the current wars happening. War is a bad thing. Many people perish and thousands are critically injured. As a peace maker, I would try and make all the countries in the world live in harmony together. By starting a fundraiser for worldwide peace, I could donate money to those injured in war and provide adequate supplies to the armies. My group would be similar to the United Nations, but I would ensure that the world thrived in peace, and prevent war from breaking out at all costs.

Who would you do it for?
I would do it for the poor soldiers and fighters who were severely injured or the families of the dead soldiers. In general, I would do it for all of humanity.

Why would you do it? There are several reasons why I would do this. First of all, I believe that it is more than important for humans to live and enjoy their life in a safe community. Also, it is my opinion that war is pointless, because it is a waste of resources and it claims lives on both sides of the physical argument. Finally, I would do this out of the goodness of my heart, and in addition, I do not want to live in a world of constant and pointless fighting. Do you??
I will conclude my PAR with a quote by William Hazlett Upson:
"Those who are at war with others are not at peace with themselves."

@Mr.Hong You spelled math wrong in the post. :)

Miranda

I would probably play music for people who need to hear it because I like playing instruments. Also it would help me be more open to people at the same time. Playing music always gives a lot of people the type of "wow" feeling that makes them happy and sad and feel many different emotions at the same time. This is what I would do for a cause.

Justin

9/18/2018 08:47:13 am

Good job! I liked how detailed your work was. I like how you gave examples, though you should consider adding a hook to perfect it!

Miranda

9/19/2018 07:41:08 pm

Have you ever heard some type of music that you thought really matched your feelings?

CreepsVicRamen (Victoria)

9/17/2018 11:31:31 pm

Great idea! I just think maybe you could give us more details and make it more of a paragraph. Maybe fix some grammar errors here and there. Also, I'm sorry for your loss.

shannon

9/17/2018 07:33:16 pm

I'm really inspired by how determined Terry was to reach his goal.
one day I want to fundraise for a cure for brain aneurysms. I want to do this because my grandpa died from a sudden aneurysm before I was born. from what I've heard he's a very nice and giving person. I have spent long nights thinking about what my life would be like if he was still here.

Another thing i would do is fundraise to give to the "Cure Alzheimer's Fund". I would do this because my other grandpa has bad Alzheimer's. He started forgetting my family and I when I was very young. every time I see him it's like he's meeting a new person. Every Sunday I visit him and it's painful too see that he has no idea who I am. Sometimes he would act out because he was scared of us. this is much harder to deal with rather then losing him.

Emily

9/17/2018 09:44:44 pm

@Shannon I’m so sorry to hear that about your family, it must be so hard on you especially because you are still so young. Just remember to capitalize the first letter of the sentence. :/\

As exciting as it is to think that one day we will all be zooming around in flying cars or teleporting from here to there, the technologies that will really change the world are those that will save lives. I hope that one day I’ll be able to create one that will solve hunger issues, as the world population is getting higher and higher. I’ve read an article about using 3-D printers to print food. Yes, you didn’t hear it wrong. Scientists have actually predicted that in the future, 3-D can possibly affect and save the world. Though, that must be hard to create. But as long as a I try, you never know what’s going to happen. Maybe I’ll do that one day (not likely)! But Terry Fox has taught us that anything is possible if you try your best, though it’s not certain that it’s going to happen. Still, give it a shot! There’s still a lot of people out in the world trying like you are, and there is a small chance that the one that really did it is you!

Terry Fox was a man who suffered from cancer, he had to amputate his leg do to the infection rising in his right leg. Terry Fox then decided to try and raise money through an event known today as the Terry Fox run, people would donate loonies and toonies while he ran across Canada. So many people were inspired and many donated, some even decided to run along with Terry. Soon after, Terry was brought to the hospital due to reports of lung cancer, he then later passed away. People all across Canada were inspired by this great man who ran miles after miles to raise money for cancer research but unfortunately died while raising so much. Still, people decided to carry on his legacy by creating the annual Terry Fox run, schools and people would donate toonies and loonies for cancer research, and participate in a run. Terry Fox will go down as a hero, an athlete, and an inspiration.

If I were to commit to something as a way of charity, it would have to be something that not only would attract attention, but to also inspire people to donate. If I were to commit to such a kind act, I would be a street performer, street performances are so amazing to experience that i could imagine many people paying to see this, so i would simply make all my acts for charities and funding for medical research. The reason for this is quite simple, charities have one goal, to try and help those who had unfortunate lives and cannot live there lives has peacefully and as happily as they would have wished for. They use most of the money donated not for themselves, but to aid those who can't afford food or shelter. We all most likely saw the video of the blind and poor man who was out on the streets, people like those who need help is what charities are for. So, if you want to help bu\t you can't set up something big, just donate.

If I could do something to help the community, I’ll do it first by joining volunteer. Because I think it’s the most existing, the most possible thing to do for now, but which also means a lot. There’s once I saw my sister volunteer doing the recycling job and I think it was pretty cool. Volunteer helping others, you can just starting by doing something easy and try to make the world a better places where you see everyone puts smile on their face. So if I get a chance, I’ll really liked to try joining volunteers.

Terry Fox was an amazing person that did a risky deed to help humanoids. what would you do to help humans?

What I would do is to become an inventor, because you can do a lot of things. First, I can make an antidote for cancer, or any other diseases or germ, or infection etc.Second, I can make a machine that decomposes garbage so quick that the next time you go to a dumpster, trees and plants have already grown. Lastly, I can make a machine that sprouts food, drinks and riches to the poor so nobody would be on the streets.

That is I would do, what would you do?

9/17/2018 09:05:24 pm

is it just me, or did I wright huminoids instead of humans?

Imagine a world where cancer was just like a common cold that was relatively easy to cure. That world could be our world, if we can all work towards that goal.

I would become a pharmaceutical researcher. A person who spends much of their time trying to find cures for things like the common cold, or cancer for instance. I would be doing this for my grandparents. My grandma had small cell lung cancer and had a surgery to remove the tumour. She went through chemotherapy and radiation treatment and thought everything was going to be okay. It turns out the tumour was still somewhere in her body and it grew back. She died before I was even born so I never got to meet her. My dad was the 4th child out of seven. My dad said that my grandma was very kind and generous to each and every child. My grandpa had colon cancer and had to undergo surgery to get part of his intestine cut off. Luckily he survived and the tumour didn’t grow back. Many other people lives are at risk because there aren’t many things that can stop the virus from spreading all over their bodies. The only things that can prevent (or at least hold off) cancer from spreading all over their body is amputation or a surgery that will be extremely painful. Some can’t afford the medical fees and can’t get the help they need. Other may not even be aware that they even have cancer.

I would do this because people are probably dying all around the world from cancer. We need to put an end to this.

I think that things diseases and cancer are really important but for me personally I think would love to help people with mental health issues. Again, physical health is super important but TO ME PERSONALLY, the only thing that hurts more than physical scars are mental scars because the way that I see it is that if your break a bone, it can heal but the mind is different. The mind can forget but there will always be an imprint. Sometimes you may not even forget at all. For example, let's say that someone really close to you has just passed away and with that brings sadness to you. You see, that sadness could possibly stick with you for the rest of your life, and that is called a mental scar. A broken bone has a big chance of healing. Now, I understand that this isn't always the case because well something like cancer, could kill you and if you do live through it, that could also leave a mental scar. So that's a whole another thing we're talking about here. Anyways, now onto my point. I want to raise money for mental health by selling my art and things I create. The reason why I want to is because it seems as if mental health is rarely brought up and rarely touched on even though so many people suffer with it all over the world. So what I'm saying is that, that it's a big problem and not as many people seem to realize or care about it. That's why I want to help.

I won’t grow up and be a robot decorator, our first test server works good and then send them to the hospitals to help those guys that can’t move or hard to move, maybe they can help out building houses and stuff like that. The robot can do the easy stuff but human needs to work on the hard stuff so that’s why I let them help all building from the easiest to the hardest to let them how does people can’t walk and teach them how to walk.

Who knew I had a passion that would last me for years? Every since I could talk before I could walk all I’v wanted to do was sing! When you have passion you need to persu it. I know what your thinking this is not what we are supposed to be writing, well just hold on. What I want to do is help th world but at the same time but at the same time follow my passion. I want to become a singer and donate every last penny to helping families how are struggling so if the move up To a better living condition and better house we can move homeless people into houses that use to belong to some other people. Also I want to give the money I make to find treatment and cures for deasises or condition that people don’t pay as much attention to. In conclusion I would be helping the world and following my passion

If I would do something for a cause, it would be helping children in the hospital. I would like to read to the children lovely books. I would help the children learn to read, write, and draw. I would do this because the children are very sick and can’t go to school to study. Helping them with education will take their minds off their sickness.

I would be a NBA player so i can help people enjoy life by enjoying a basketball game. Also help by giving out free tickets. U can also give out discounts. If you are trying to be a NBA player it would take a lot of work. You are going to need to work on your Jump shot, Free throws, ETC.
