Greatest Inventor- Photograph

I think that the photograph is the greatest invention of the 20th century. When I studied history of photographs last year, I learned the importance of photography in the development of - human civilization-.A picture is an image of the light produced.( The photograph was invented by Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre in 1838.)

Photographs allowed to people to get a lot of information quickly and exactly. It changed the way we had to rely on memory because we could record everything and every moment.
Second, as the photograph developed, movies were invented, too. This affected human culture. Through movies, we can have a lot of experiences indirectly while watching them.

Third, photographs influenced the Art world. Realism vanished, and impressionism began. It was a revolution in that time. Impressionism was the beginning of Contempoary Art.

In conclusion,I believe the photograph is an amazing invention. We always take pictures to create many images and remember people, things and situations. I cannot imagine my life without the photograph.

My Hero, 'Jesus'

Before I tell you about my hero, I'd like to explain the meaning of the word 'hero'. A hero has wisdom, talent, and courage, that common people do not have. Someone who possesses qualities is.  'Jesus', so  I have selected him  as  my hero, the theme of this essay. Because he is the most special person I know. I respect him as a man and  religious figure.

He is the only son of God,  conceived by the holyghost, and born of the virgin 'Mary'. He died on the cross  for our sins,  however, three days later, he arose from the dead. Thanks to his death and resurrection, we have the opportunity to repent. He has worked many miracles in the past, and still produces miracles from beyond. For example, he pay a dead man alive, was to heal the sick.

I have also received the miracle of  listening his voice. Due to this  small miracle, I am  able to thank and praise him  for everything. His answer to my prayer will always be special to me. He always shows me his love. So, I respect his teachings, forgiveness, and love. 
' Jesus ' is my God I love and, the hero I admire.
