In the article At least 63 structures burned in fire near Boulder by Joey Bunch, Bruce Finley and Kevin Vaughan. It matters because forest fires can damge a lot of difrent things. It says that at least 63 structures have been burned in the Boulder area because of a fire that has been burning many areas and has burned 35,000 acres. Nobody knows the cause of the fire yet but they will investigate once they stop the fire.

I read the article Is Google Making Us Stupid by Nicholas Carr and I think that Google is making us stupid and it is making us smarter. It matters because a lot of people us Google so if it is making us stupid then a lot of people will be stupid. It is making some people dumber because they look up an answer or something and don't even read about it they just copy it. It is also making some people smarter if they look up good websites that have good info and if they read it all and think about it can be just as good as a book. I think Google is making me a smarter because I can read all of the info and think about it instead of copying the answers. I think Google will make the world smarter if people read the facts but if they copy it or skim it I think it will make the world dumber. To conclude I think Google is a wonderful invention if used in the right ways.
