-====== chapter 3 ======
-John really wants a gaming computer, so the first thing he’s going to do is ask for information. The first person he asks is Alan, who is the best programmer in his class. He told John that Mac has developed the  most useful design system and the most beautiful web page design; it’s free to upgrade; and most importantly, it can be paired with other Apple products. John thinks it sounds reasonable. His dad is using a Mac too; since that day, when he saw anyone using a Mac, he would get some advice from them.
-One day his best friend Ray can’t stand it any more. He tells John that he needs to get some advice from another computer user. He hears that if you want to play games on a laptop, it’s better to use a PC. At first, John didn’t want to listen, but under his repeated persuasion, he asked Max, a slacker student who plays PC all the time, what’s some advantage about PCs. He told him that PC users have the option to choose from a wide array of motherboards, processors, storage drives, graphics cards, sound cards, and memory. This enables PC users to customize their hardware setup or easily and quickly upgrade existing equipment. He also tells Josh that Macs ban a lot of games, so it’s better to play games on PC.
-After listening to both Alan and Max, John decides to target getting a PC for his gaming needs. John chose a PC because Max said it's better for gaming and you can pick different parts for it. John likes that idea because he wants more choices for his gaming stuff.

-====== chapter 4 ======
-At the end of the semester, the teacher said each group had to give a five-minute report in English. John, Jennifer, a “good” student, and Bob, a classmate with two little brothers, were assigned to the same team. On Wednesday night, John and Jennifer had a call to discuss the work on the report, but Bob couldn't join because of some tiny issue. Jennifer decided to wait for Bob, so they planned to start the call on Friday. John mentioned he had an English class that day, but Jennifer didn't hear him. At the same time Bob is watching a movie, he thinks that he just finished dealing with his sick brothers, so he doesn't need to do the report. On Friday night, John joined the call only to find out they had already finished the report. Because he didn't do any of the reporting, he decided to be the one to present it and then left the group call to play.
-After the presentation, Jennifer complained to the teacher, saying she did all the work alone. The teacher asked John and Bob why they didn't contribute. John explained that it's not his fault; it's Jennifer's fault; she refused to work with him on Wednesday, and he had already told her about his English class. Jennifer accused him of making excuses, to which John responded that since the report was already done, there was nothing he could do. The teacher turned to Bob and didn't think he was wrong either; he explained that he couldn't work on the report because he had to take care of his sick little brothers. The teacher doesn’t believe in them; he told John and Bob to apologize to Jennifer, saying you all have your point, but no matter what reason, you two didn’t do this project. Teacher, tell them that before pointing fingers, take a moment to reflect on your own actions.
