test review and notes

Today in class we were supposed to take notes on the golden age of Greece and Pericles but I had already done that after the test Friday. After we took notes we reviewed the test which I did very well on. I only missed one question because I remembered some geography incorrectly.

The story also tries to convey how people who are able to carry this message are what all of society needs. In the story the author states that " If men do not act for themselves, then what will they do when the benefit of their effort is for all." This explains if you do not do the work for your self how will you be able to work for other people, and if you can not do work f...
