1. The implications of finding the main idea are we tend to get confused what the story or the paragraph was all about we need to comprehend the things that we read so as to find the main idea of the story.
2. For me the main idea of the selection is there are solutions to every problem. I think this is the best main idea for the selection because we are the only ones responsible for our own problems we shouldn't blame other people for our mistake or make up excuses. Excuses don't solve our problem we have to face it. One of the best example mentioned in the paragraph is the man that was alcoholic and when the doctor asked him if there's anything else he can do in the evening rather than drinking, the man had many excuses therefore, he always ended up drinking instead of doing better things.
Bonus:
Since i became the president of my class it has been my responsibility to work with the students to resolve problems, and i have to make sure that I'm informing the school leaders and the student council of ideas emanating from my class. I also have the responsibility of leading my class cabinet meetings and organizing student activities and events. Being my class president means having a lot of responsibilities but if i really try my best i think i can make it.

Bonus:
Romantic Stage (by Tintin)
Church was the first time Tintin and Mike met. Eventhough, Tintin wasn't physically attracted to Mike she enjoyed his company and the fact that he really liked her. The more he got closer to her and her family, the more she felt she could be able to live happily ever after. I think the story is trying to show us that is not just about the looks, its about someone who really makes you happy.

Me and My English
1. I prefer to read on the bed due to fact that i like the peace and quiet of my room. The peace and quiet helps me concentrate and prevents me from getting distracted continuously. Also, i like reading at night before i sleep it helps me fall asleep even though the story may be interesting.
2. Mostly i prefer reading just before i go to bed or sometimes in the evening so i have some time to relax before i sleep. Also sometimes i enjoy visiting the library to read a new book or catch up on another book that i haven't yet finish. Even though i have many vacant time to read one of favorite books in the library during break time.
3. I enjoy reading it word for word because i find it easier to comprehend what I'm reading. If i don't fully understand any part of the story, i usually go over it again. Even though I'm not the fastest reader, if i don't get distracted, I'm able to really understand the story.
4. I like reading one book at a time so i can focus on the story. If i read two books i get confused with both their story. Reading more books at a time takes longer and i don't have enough time.
5. If i don't understand part of the story i go over it again to make sure i understand. There are a few books i really enjoy. So sometimes when i can't find any other good books or i don't have any time to buy i will reread some of my favorite books.
6. One of the books that I've been wanting to read for awhile is "Harry Potter". One of the reason why is that i didn't read it is because there are so many books in the sequel and i was worried i wouldn't be able to finish them. Even then i would like to have a chance to read at least one of the Harry Potter books.
7. The last time i wrote something longer than two pages is when i was still in the 3rd year of high school. I wrote it because it was assigned to me by my teacher as a homework. It took me around two hours to write and was a little longer than two pages.
8. I can use my imagination to create stories. I can express my feelings through written words. It gives me a chance to use words i wouldn't normally use in conversations.
9. One of the greatest thing I dislike about writing is not being as good a writer as I want to be. When i come across a sentence somewhere that i really like i sometimes go over what i have written and I'm not satisfied. Sometimes i find myself stuck and i can't think of any words to fit my thoughts.
10. I would like my ideal partner to have a good personality and not only depend on her looks, one quality i would like my partner to have would be to be more on the adventurous side and to not be afraid to try new things. She also has to be down to earth and have some kind of goal in her life. And the biggest thing smile, if i am with a girl who can't smile well that's it for me.

Lack of Concentration
If i can change one thing about reading that will be my lack of concentration. Because i can't really get my self concentrate on reading, sometimes I just want to skip to next step, or I can't really pay attention on the whole sentence and i can't bring myself to read the boring or less interesting pieces of text, so when this happens, I miss the point and get the answer wrong. When I start to work a lot of thoughts comes in my head therefore i get distracted. I feel sleepy and tired, so my performance is being affected. However, ones in a while i come across a section which i find really interesting. Since i don't want to miss part of the story again, from now on i will always try my best to concentrate when i am reading.
