Answer:
When I was young, I longed to explore the silk road. I grew up a peasant girl, watching the merchants in the market promote the lush fabrics and glittering jewels. The aromas of the spices would flood my humble home on these days. When I grew up, I ran away. Years later I reflect on that day and realize it wasn't very smart. I had no idea of the hardships the road would cause. I didn't even know where it led! Just that they were lands of sweetness and sugar, with majestic elephants and barbaric kings, straight out of a story. When I reached the land of Persia, I was exhausted and half dead. I had joined a caravan at the beginning of my journey and I heard them wondering among themselves in the night, how was I alive? They did not understand my need to see the world, to know what it was like. Persia was magnifecent. I watched as the merchants bartered with them. Managing to get a hold of many beautiful goods. When we left we had restocked our supplies and were ready to move to India. When we reached, I gazed delighted at the ginormous elephants and mischievous monkeys. Dyes and spices made their way into our caravan after this trip. Then, we traveled on to China. The magnificent wall greeted us when we plunged through the mountains. Men and women with almond-shaped eyes greeted us and exchanged some of our goods and dyes for silks. Now that the last leg of our journey was complete, we made our way home. While I probably should not have taken the road, it was an incredible experience for a peasant like me. I saw the world in its glory and in its poverty. I tell you this now, 20 years later, to show you that life has hidden surprises for us along its path. It is up to us to search and find them.

Answer:
The conclusion
Explanation:
The conclusion will end the essay with a summative sentence(s)
In the world of "Harrison Bergeron," everyone is equal. To achieve this extreme equality, people must wear "handicaps." For example, someone who very strong must wear weights that slow them down and tire them out. Someone with good vision must wear glasses that prevent them from seeing well. In this way, no one is better off than anyone else. Everyone is truly "equal."
Harrison Bergeron, however, refuses these handicaps. He is strong, smart, and very good looking. He must wear many handicaps that attempt to make him equal to everyone else. At some point, he refuses to wear them any longer.
When Harrison enters the TV studio, he declares himself "the emperor" and removes all of his handicaps. This is a shocking act for viewers to see. He commands a ballerina to remove her handicaps and join him as his empress. When she removes her handicaps, she is beautiful as well as graceful. At this point in the story Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General arrives and kills Harrison and the ballerina.
Harrison's death is significant because it proves that extraordinary people cannot survive in this type of society. His death is necessary for this society to continue.
In fact, if Harrison were not killed, others might believe that they too could remove their handicaps. Harrison had to die for the sake of this "equal" world. Had Harrison been allowed to continue without his handicaps, others would have followed. It would not take long before everyone removed his or her handicaps, and no one would be "equal" any longer.
