Reflection on ACT Reading Test

For the ACT Reading test my strengths are being able to comprehend the hard reading which contain big vocabulary words that I never heard of before; I'm very good at understanding and breaking down a word. It is very easy for me to understand the moral of the story and know whats going on in the story. Having multiple choice answers makes things so much easier because I get to use process of elimination to get to a closer answer. Also in every problem it tell you what sections to check to get a hence of what the answer might be.
My weaknesses for the ACT Reading test are being able to remember what I read with out having to go back to the passage for every question. The story are very long passages to me and hard for me to get into it know that I have to read all that in a certain amount of time. I do not consider the timing good because I am very slow reader. If I was to try to read fast I would not understand the meaning of the story; I would not have a clue what I read. I also sometimes have to read things over just to be sure that I read it correctly. I am not very successful with getting through more than half of the test without just bubbling in anything. I know for a fact I will approve in on the reading portion of the ACT. I will practice my reading by reading something everyday for a good amount of time to improve my ability to having a higher score on the ACT.

ACT English Test Relection

As I was taking my English portion of the ACT Test I was able to use many strategies that I have been taught for the last few years. I believe the English portion of the test is one of the easiest parts due to the fact it is the beginning and you are able to stay focused. I know for a fact I was able to succeed through the first 30 questions; in the beginning of the test I am able to stay on task. My mind is on nothing but finishing in time. I at least want to get the beginning half of the test complete and correct; I know that I will finish it. I am good with using the strategies throughout the test and I believe the more strategies I know a better chance for me to get through the test with less hesitation.
I believe I have just as many weaknesses as I have strengths; I am not very good with staying focus for a long period of time. The English portion of the ACT is very boring but also very important and that is something I have to realize. Since I consider myself as a hard working student who is most likely to succeed and need to in order to be the person I should and want to be I know that I am going to approve with my weaknesses. I will approve by going to sleep on time to maintain my focus and studying much more with the things I struggle with the most.

The Illiad Characters Courageous Actions

In the Iliad each of the characters have their own courageous actions. Each of them were powerful and some how contribute to or was under some type of royal condition. Courage has been used in very useful ways that has caused some of the characters to kill, have heart, come to their senses, and have sympathy for those who grieve tears over a lost friend or family member. Courage is something that influences and bribes you to do things that fulfills your curiosity or that will give you regrets. For example Achilles was very devastated from the death of his friend which was caused by the Trojans so he decided to take action upon himself by giving the Trojans a visit. Achilles took action by fighting and killing the mightiest warrior of the Trojans named Hector to get revenge of his friends death. Achilles believe killing Hector was something that he had to do because it was a way to take out his anger and he felt that somebody had to pay for the cause of his friends death. Courage drove Achilles to to kill; it inspired him and gave him heart to step on the property of the Trojans and call somebody out to fight. It was very courageous of Achilles to step up for his friend; he was willing to risk his life to defend the death of his friend.
Hector's father the Priam was very brave to inter the premisses where Achilles was at knowing that he just had killed his son. He new that Achilles would have some type of remorse so Priam went to Achilles to bag for his sons body back because he believed that Achilles would be kind enough to spear it and come to his senses by understanding the pain that he was feeling. The same grieving that he did for his friend is the same grieving Priam is doing for his son and Priam believe that Achilles should be able to understand the pain that he is going through. He had guts to go to the man that killed his son. He was so desperate to get his son's body back that he bagged and plead to Achilles to show some sympathy cause he know the suffer that Priam is going through. Priam knew Achilles would understand because of his father and friend was dead just like his son was.
Hector also showed very courageous actions because he was very brave to fight for his people- the Trojans. He had heart enough to stand up to Achilles and fight him. He showed that he was a mighty warrior by courage and fighting not knowing if he would lose or win. He was willing to take the risk of giving his life away for his people. Achilles had the audacity to inter the land of the Trojans and call somebody out to fight.
He was brave even though there was many Trojans in the land he still had heart to fight. He showed courageous actions through out the whole book; he had heart and sympathy. Achilles was thoughtful and kind enough to give the Priam his son;s body back. These characters wee very courageous with all their actions. These are the reasons why I believe they are very courageous; these are the main things you need to have it; heart, braveness, and being able to do what ever it takes to fulfill your curiosity.
