English - Children Of Blood And Bone

LO: To connect scenes in real life.

Chapter 2:
“It’s a diviner tax.” I grip the draped fabric of my pants, still haunted by the
guard’s touch. “They came for Mama Agba, too. Probably hitting every home in
Ilorin.”
Tzain presses his fists to his forehead as if he could smash through his own
skull. He wants to believe that playing by the monarchy’s rules will keep us
safe, but nothing can protect us when those rules are rooted in hate.

This can be compared to things like corrupted countries. The government keep stealing money from its people and never stop. The people needs to work hard just to pay the taxes then if they didn't pay it, they might end up in prison.

Affordable Cars - ESOL

Affordable Cars

Four-wheel drive vehicles are types of cars that have 4 wheels. It has an engine and uses fuels but some
of them are chargeable and electric. Most cars are affordable and cheap but few of them are expensive.
Some people might not want to buy one of these cars because of some disadvantage but here are some
reasons why you should buy one.

First if you worry about your money, you can find second hand cars that are very cheap, good and
affordable. Brand new cars are good too but expensive, so you can stay buying on second hand cars.
There might be some few engine problems buying cheaper cars so you have to choose wisely which one
you'll buy. 

Another thing is you can bring your car anywhere you want with your friends or families. You also need
not to worry if it's raining outside because your car's roof will protect you from it. It also saves time if
you’re in a hurry. But the world is facing a big problem, air pollution is increasing because of the black
smoke coming from the car. How can we avoid air pollution? First, get your car to a regular tune-up and
make a manufacturer check your car. Second, if you have the money, go buy electric cars or hybrid
electric vehicles so that it will lessen the pollution and it will be more efficient

Last but not the least, cars are causing traffic. We use it in our everyday lives like going to work,
shopping, travelling or whatever, but there are too many people who use cars and end up causing traffic.
One thing that we can avoid traffic is to use public transportation instead of cars or walk or bike, it will
lessen the traffic congestion. If you really need a car and don’t want traffic, go earlier than you would so
that later on you don’t have to worry about the traffic on the road. 

There might be many things that will go against using cars like traffic, too expensive or air pollution but
there is one thing for sure, cars also help us in our lives. We can go anywhere we want, you can see
your families that are far away from you and more things that you can do with your car.Silly Car Question #16: Why are there so many white cars? | Stuff ...
