Life in Vietnam would be perfect if everyone were totally equal. Do you agree or disagree?
I would disagree. If anybody is equal, there will be no more ideas, knowledge, less money than usual because everybody is equal. For example, if one person had more knowledge than others, that person will have to were a earphone from the government and every day and for every 20 seconds the earphone will create a loud noise which make them stop thinks.
You are designing a society in which everyone is equal. What are the laws?
The laws will be:
-Every body will have same amount of resource, money
-Beautiful/handsome boys/girls must were a mask
-Intelligence person must were an earphone from the government
What would you do to help people who were less capable mentally, physically, or socially to “catch up”?
I would help them by teaching them what they need to know to "catch up" to the society like teach them to obey the law, know what right or wrong, showing their talent.
What problems can you foresee that might come in a society with laws that force “equality for all”? How would you handle those problems?
Some problems in a "equality for all" world might happen like people wearing mask because their are more beautiful/handsome than other, no new ideas, technology, inventions and we can solve this problem by creating a revolutions, take power over the government, stands up against them, leave this world.
Do you believe that total equality is possible, or would human nature make sure that some people would eventually dominate others?
I wouldn't say total equality because in this modern world nothing is equal, everyone is different from the others so it might cause situation where people dominate others, which is have power over them.
In what situations have you felt similarly to any of the characters? What persons, places, or ideas from your own experience came to mind while you were reading this story? Try to list as least two examples.
In Vietnam history, we learn about years ago when our country was overthrown by others, we were force to work, less money, no freedom so its kind of like what the story "Harrison Bergeron" was talking about.

1. Because some advertisement cause people to buy the product of what the advertising is about like using celebrity or attractive model and that lead to consumption of fortune.
2. I think is no. We could check the product before we buy it that way we could not waste our money and the company that make this product will not make this anymore because they know that no one is going to buy so less resource to make that product.
3. I think yes. Some of the product had really good advertising technique that make you or your friend. They can use celebrity or model to attract the costumer to buy their product.

Hi my name is Eddy and I move from Vietnam to United States in 2008, it was an external migration. The trip was very exciting to travel on a first class airplane in a 12 hours or more trip. It all began when I finished 5th grade, I got home like usual except for my parents, they were all pack up like they were about to go somewhere and they said to me “son, we are relocated to the United States, you’re mom and I had decided that we will be moving to U.S for a better life, we can’t made a lot of money here so go get your brother, we will be leaving in 2 more hours” I was like very exciting because the school that I’m study now until I graduated was terrible. We called a taxi, arrived in the airport and the off we go for a better life.
When we arrived in Los Angeles (United States city), we couldn’t say anything except for “wow”. It was way different compare to what we lived back in our homeland like the atmosphere was great or the how beautiful the building is. My families settled down in an apartment, 4th floor and room 402; our room had a beautiful view of the city. The most parts that I liked about L.A (Los Angeles) is the city at night, it was beautiful liked a fireworks show and Hollywood, the city of cinema. In L.A, we can had a new job or a good business, for me and my brother were to had a new school and new experience of life in another country also the city people were friendly and nice, it was way better than Vietnam but I hoped my parents didn’t had a hard time to find a job or else they had to spend all of their money on their own business, if it didn’t worked out because of that they might not had enough money to affordable for me and my brothers to a new school. I’ sure that my parents had plan it all before they lived; I mean if they didn’t find a job, we might had to moved back to Vietnam. Although I missed my old country but I do liked it here, I could learn or experience new things for example they had robot that could help us with our lives. Can you imagine that? Robot is helping us with its own specific function. While I do missed my country but the positive things of immigrant to another country is you could find a new job or a new life to live but it’s also had a negative side like don’t bring enough money. This is our family opportunity to have a new life, a better life and had a new chance for a better future.

Pumping: The pipe that travel around houses to provide water
Skeptics: Doubt or beeing suspicious about something

6. My perception about global warming is the earth is about to heat up and about to explode so we need to get the earth cool down a little bit like stop cutting trees, grow about 1 or 2 child, stop wasting energy, stop release carbondioxied into the atmosphere.

The 5 themes o Geography can help us understand and draw a maps. Movement help us know what they are trading or exchange for ideas. Region is a country or a state so this help us know where a group of people live or some of them are sharing the same culture depend on their region. Place show us where the a group of people are or what they village according to the latitude, longitude and the human characteristics. Location are a country or a state that is show on the map so we can know where a group of people live even if we don't know where they are but we what country they're at. Human interact with environment is people blend in or do something with the environment so it tell us how a group of people live in a forest or near a river or high in a mountain. I have create a country to show the 5 themes, its call Monster World. Movement is trading rare things with foreigner, region is in a middle of a nowhere ocean, place is a village but have good technology because i combine the medieval age with the stone age together, human interact with environment is people live happily with the monsters.
