Title of the article: "Birther" case rejected
Summary:
The Supreme Court has again rejected an appeal from a "birther" proponent questioning the citizenship of President Obama. The justices Monday turned aside without comment a request for a rehearing of various claims. After dismissing the original appeal in late January.
My opinion:
I think no matter President Obama was born in the United States or somewhere, it doesn't matter. However, if Obama's birth certificate is a forgery. He is still President Obama. It should takes a long time to support.

4.title of the article: Boy,3,dies in fall from roller coaster

5.summary:

A 3-year-old boy fell from a childern's roller coaster at an indoor amusement park in Norridge on Saturday night. To shake all the people, that boy died because of the accident of the roller coaster. The owner of the this park said that he just wanted to say how tragic this was and how bad he felt for the family. He also promised that he was going to 100 percent cooperate with all the various authorities in the investigation.

6.my opinion:

It's very dangerous for a 3-year-old child to play outdoor. Parents should be aware of their childern's action. In order to avoid tragic, all the people should pay more attention on childern's activities. The best way is don't let childern go outdoor alone anymore, but I think this is a curle way for childern.

4. Title of the article No More Death Penalty

5. A summary of the article

This article is about Governor Quinn of Illinois. On Wednesday, he will sign a bill outlawing the death penalty in Illinois. Eleven years ago, Governor Ryan stopped the death penalty. He stopped it because 13 people who were supposed to be executed were actually found innocent. This new bill makes stopping the death penalty an official law.

6. Your opinion about the article

I think it is good to stop the death penalty. It is hard to be 100% sure that someone is guilty. If you kill them, you can never bring them back. Also, I think life in prison is better punishment than the death penalty.

  4. Title of the article: Google vs. Bing? No clear winner

  5. Summary: As you can see the title of this article "Google vs. Bing", it talked about how useful and popular between Google and Bing. In this research, Google and Bing occupy almost same proportion. That means many people prefer to use Google, and a lot of people like to use Bing, so Google vs. Bing not yet have clear winner now. As a result, the theory shows Bing and Google may collide like an asteroid slamming into a planet in January 2012.

  6. My opinion: I think Bing is useful as same as Google, but I think Google is more popular than Bing. I heard Bing before, but I never use it. I prefer Google.

4 Title of article:Customer service its most satisfactory
5 Summary: The author bought a phone from AT&T, and AT&T sent him to answer a questionnaire. He explained in questionnaire that he didn't like the attitude of salesperson. Her name is Jen Johnson. When he entered to the AT&T store to buy phone, nobody wasn't interested with him. He chose one phone, and he got closer to salesperson, saying, "I want to buy that phone." Salesperson only cared of him in the selling progress. The author explained that why the the phone buying finished nicely because salesperson didn't beat him and she didn't reveal that she did't like him.

6. My opinion: The case, The author came up against can happen to anybody. When people go to stores to buy something, sales persons sometimes don't care of customer. I agree with the author that is not good attitude. The author complained about the salesperson was so cold manner. He desired to get more professional attention.
