Online Security

The things that I learned from the online security presentation is that pop ups are bad and the best way to avoid them is to be smart. Don't click any of the adds that pop up because those are the easiest ways to get the pop ups. If you need to close anything just click the red X in the corner to close them and it always works. Another thing that I learned is don't put anything personal online and make sure that your passwords don't have anything close to your personal life. This will help me guide me in a safer way of using electronics because it will help prevent me from doing something that will give any personal information to the open.

Young Goodman Brown Answers

1. I think that Hawthorne's purpose for writing this story is to show us that are dreams affect are lives in big ways. I am saying this because Goodman Brown took his dream seriously and had nothing written on his tombstone.
2. After reading the story I do agree that Brown's wife was aptly named Faith. No, Faith's name does not fit her peronality because she was unsure in which side to follow. No, brown does not have true faith in her because Faith was not sure if she should follow God or the devil.
3. I think that the pink ribbons signify peace or happiness because those are the only things in the story that represent goodness.

Young Goodman Brown

Im going to start of by saying that this was one of the most confusing stories that I have ever read. One observation that I got was that none of it was real, it was just a dream that Goodman had. Another observation is that Goodman took his dream so serious that he had nothing put on his tombstone. My last observation that I got is that Goodman goes towards Faith when everyone has been corrupted because he wants nothing bad to happen to her. He wants her to stay Godly.

The mood which is the emotional state of the reader is happy because we are happy once we find out that the muskrat reaches the surface with earth in her hands. Another mood can be melancholy because all of the strongest animals fail and the smallest animal says he will go or die trying.
