4. Title of the article Slain U.S. yachters lived for adventure

5. A summary of the article

This article is about four people from California who were killed. Phyllis Macay, Bob Riggle, Jean Adam, and Scott Adam were traveling on a yacht called the Quest. They hoped to sail around world for 8-10 years. Their yacht was hijacked off the coast of Somali. Then they were killed by pirates.

6. Your opinion about the article

I have heard about the hijackings of big ships off the coast of Somali. Usually people are not killed. The pirates want money from the companies that own the ships. I was very surprised that the pirates would kill four people sailing in a small boat. I think Somali is a very dangerous place.

5 Summary: A Cook Country judge on Thursday sentenced a South Sild man to 32 years in prison for the murder of Derion Albert, a Fenger High school sophomore whose videotaped beating was shown around the world and came the symbolize youth violence in Chicago.

6 My opinion: How can kill someone? This event is really surprised me. A third defendant, who was 14 at the time of melee, was convicted murder as a juveile and setenced to a juvenile detention center until his 21 birthday. They are so younger students. they commit a crime. One should be punished for their crime, regardless of rank. Only the guilty have anything to fear. As said from the olden times, one cannot have a good life after having sinned.

4Title of article So long, swans

5 summary

In 2008 all paddle boats were taken out from the Lincoln Park Zoo's water because of a $12 million restoration project. The pool has been open since June. Zoo spokeswomen said that there would not be boats on the pond this year and the following couple of years because the plants need to grow by the pond. Maybe the paddle boats wont be put back that has not been

decided yet by Zoo's management. Instead of paddle boats, The Zoo's management also thinks

about putting pontoon boats with a speaking guide to talk about the zoo .

6. my opinion

All paddle boats were removed from the Lincoln park Zoo in 2008. The Zoo management

wants to get more wild life and wild plants by the pond. In order for this to happen, the

zoo management wont allow paddle boats until the plants grow in couple years.

# 5 ANATOMY OF A RAIL CAR

ANATOMY OF A RAIL CAR by Tracy Swartz Wednesday March 9, 2011 CTA provided a smoother ride but they have had their share of bumps. They will be count with new electronic sings, propulsion system, security cameras but the worst is that some riders have railed against the car's aisle facing seats, similiar to New York trains.
my opinion
I didn't have had the experince yet, but I know that I am not going to like it, just because people fall into you and we could't avoid those inconvinience.
