This first semester I have learned a lot about evil and satire.  I remember in the beginning we focused a lot on different forces of evil in the world and how they can control society.  Macbeth was a great example of evil becuase it’s a tragedy.  Also, we learned about racism in Huck Finn and A Lesson Before Dying.  I also learned about the concept of satire, which is making fun of political problems through comedy.  We’ve read a lot this semester, and for the second semester, I hope to learn more about writing.  I really need to improve my skills when it comes to writing essays especially, but I also need to work on writing things like articles.  I feel like I haven’t done enough writing in my past english classes.
