(b) Reflect on his thought.
His biological mother isn't a good mother. It's not a good behave to give her child to other people. But the noly right thing is insisting on her child going to the college. However, Job didn't think about his familly, choosing a very expensive college,and dropping out. How stupid he was.

Refer to the second paragraph,what bad colleagues he work with. How dare they fire their boss ?

At the third paradraph, it's very lucky that the cance could be recovered.

So...Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish

  1. Tomy, instead of just writing down the keywords, i'm glad you start commenting on the learning material this week. Very good beginning.
    By the way, you have a typo. It's "cancer", not "cance."
