Pre'sis Exercise

Joseph
Exercise 3
                Hinsdale, July 5 there was a cow in the train tracks and a train was heading straight for it. 200 pound John Clarky was warning the train and trying to remove the cow but the cow would move. He then grabbed the cow pulled with his weight just in time. They fell down in the gully but no one was hurt.

Exercise 5
                We all eventually become people of habits that are un-doable. We thing we do, we store up to be used again when temptations come. Our Nerves and muscles remember it and they can’t be wiped away. As youths do not be of habit or anxiety but be ready to do your work. When you stay at your work you can wake up with confidence. Young people should know this at an early age so that their future career will be successful.

Exercise 9
                When a dog is not properly trained it becomes a nuisance to deal with. However there is point in which over training you dog is just as bad. Many people complain about leavings on the carpet, wearing out of furniture and smell. But what is furniture for? Furniture is for wearing out, carpet is for walking on. Many happier households have dogs on furniture. If the chairs are for show there is no more room for the dog. If you actually love your pet you would let them sit on the furniture.
