35、s a challenge as well.Its like a chain.If you dont understand it from the start,it makes things hard later on and people tend to give up on it.Regardless of all of this,I believe Shakespeares plays are important in the sense that they are where true theatre started.William Shakespeare is a name ever
36、yone knows regardless of whether you enjoy his work or not.Many high schools or colleges do at least one Shakespeares play every few years and I like that.I think its important to expose students to plays that are a bit more challenging than theyre used to.Of course,its not easy to understand these
37、plays but then think about the people who act in those plays.When acting,you have to understand your character inside and out and not only that,but you need to completely know everything going on around you as well.So to understand the script is one thing,but then to take it to that next level in te

48、ocean floor.Saving the whales could also be more cost effective than planting trees.Financial experts say that one whale,taking away CO2 and tour value,would be worth about US$2 million over its lifetime.Compare this to the high costs needed to plant and keep forests for removing CO2,and youll see w
49、hy whales might be an effective solution.At one time,millions of whales swam the worlds oceans.Unluckily,commercial whaling between the 1600s and the mid-1900s brought many whale species close to extinction.Starting in the 1970s,careful management of whaling began.Many species are recovering,but the

60、rocess,humans extract far more honey from bees than they would otherwise create naturally.As a result,bees can suffer during all stages of industrialized honey production.Honey is created when bees suck the nectar out of a flower,regurgitate it,and process it with other bees back at the hive.In thei
