3. Which of the readings did you like best and why?

I like the text that called « Horatio Alger, Jr. » because it was devoted to life of the writer and his works. It was really interesting to know about such important topics which were discussed by Horatio Alger in his books like achieving of success due to hardworking. His life was just a sample for others. I think he was really hardworking in spite of he was son of a minister. And he could not take some measures in creation of his career and just wait for actions of his father, but he did not. He was a go-getter, and he tried to show through his works that who works hardly may achieve respectable and successful life. He has shown that such possibility is open even for poor and homeless children.
