Why does Jo get angry very often?

In the book, Jo usually gets angry. She is very poor. Although she was the second elder sister in the family, her younger sister Amy always plays tricks on her and point exactly against to her . For example, Amy burned her book and said Jo's book was a silly old book. So that why she very often gets angry.

Comparison and contrast between suburban and urban areas

After I watched the short Video, I know more about suburban and urban.
Urban is full of crowded traffic, people and tall buildings. There is the air pollution, too. When you live in urban for a long time, perhaps your health will be affected. However, it is convenience for people to shopping and working.
Suburban is a quite place. There is not any loud voice and less people. There are blue sky and fresh air in the suburban. The space between buildings are bigger than urban buildings. People have more space for activities. It make them less stress.
I would prefer to live in the suburban side. I can be closer to the nature and relax.

A letter to Mr.March

20th December, 1861
Dear Dad,

Thank you for your letter. We are all well. When you went to the army for one month, we all miss you. I know that you should work very hard in this war and the meal tastes very bad. And you should wake up very early.
Mum is hard-working at home and taught us a good manner. Jo is a very active girl. She wants to be a soldier and takes part in the war, too. Beth worries about your safe. Therefore, I told her don't be so worried about you and you will protect yourself. She already calmed down.
Dad, we all remember that what you taught us and will be lovely children for both of you and Mum.
Please take care.
God bless you.
Love,
Meg

Comparative adjective and superlative adjective











Comparative adjective

This screen shot comes from the article, Hotel deaths linked to drug mixture from the November 3, 2007 edition of the Standard. Since the root word, early, is a short, two syllables word ending in Y, to make it a comparative, change y to i and add "er."



Superlative adjective

This screen shot comes from the article, Dam plan a major threat to world's oldest irrigation system from the November 3, 2007 edition of the Standard. Since the root word, early, two syllables word ending in Y, to make it a superlative, change y to i and add "est."
