What is a 'splash page'? Look it up. Explain. what they are and how they are used. Find an example of a splash page in Google Images. Save the image to you computer and then upload it to your blog post.

A splash page is a page of a site that acts as the front page before showing the home page. These can be used as an additional page of advertisements or direct someone to the appropriate page for their country. These can also be used to grab someone's attention. These work by adding different code to the site. I'm still not exactly sure how they work.

What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is. Do you agree or disagree with the writer?

The writer is trying to tell us that making the grade is not what school is all about. Teachers want to see us succeed in class and out of class. Teachers want us to make the right choices and never quit. The writer believes we are too ready to quit. He believes by not giving up we can become better students and overall better people. I agree with the fact that we are easily giving up. I think the writer understands our point of view. If we gave up less easily we would be more likely to succeed in school and even beyond school.
