ND Finalist | National Geographic Bee 2011


if we were to travel to your hometown
what should we do while we’re there give
us some local travel tips places to
visit and things to see well one of the
most important sites in Bismarck would
be the state capitol building and the
grounds it situated on it’s quite unique
it in the fact that it lacks a dome and
it’s 19 stories tall I still think it
looks pretty cool though and we’ve got
the hair got the Heritage Center there
which is it’s got a lot of exhibit it’s
like a museum it’s got a lot of exhibits
on North Dakota’s culture and economy
Bismarck also has an excellent park
system so there are a lot of
recreational activities there are three
native american indian village sites
within the city and surrounding area
there are often signs and plaques giving
important facts about the people who
live there what does being green me to
you and your friends your age I’m not so
sure about how my friends feel about it
but to me it’s the same as efficiency
being able to do as much as possible as
quickly as possible but still retain
good quality and use very few resources
if someone gave you a free ticket to
travel anywhere in the world where would
you go tell us what you would do while
you were there and why you picked it um
if I were given a free ticket to travel
anywhere in the world I guess there are
a lot of places that I’d like to go but
one of them would be Scotland because
that’s where my grandma’s ancestors came
from I’d like to probably go to a
bagpipe festival I’d always really liked
that instrument and I’d want to visit
the Isle of Skye and possibly thought
into village where my ancestors came
from also I’d like to visit edinburg and
visit as many historic sites and
probably Hadrian’s Wall too because
there’s a lot of history there how do
you smush all that information and
knowledge into your brain what’s the
secret and share one of your study tips
or tricks
while I’m not totally sure but I guess I
read a lot about other countries visit
the public library at least once a week
I try to and you know it’s anyone can
get that information they just have to
be willing to possibly reread books and
spend a lot of time researching if we
put you in charge of the earth for the
entire day what’s the first problem or
issue you will tackle and what will you
do I would probably address the issue of
overfishing and the breaking of laws by
many nations on that issue because it’s
getting to extremes and it concerns me a
lot hey how would you go about doing
that I would probably well not so sure
if there are very many penalties for not
um following such rules as they have
right now and I would probably and have
those enforced also i would probably set
limits on how often fleets from other
countries can go into the waters of
another and i would definitely want to
make it to have it in such a way that
there would still be fish available for
the local populations who are beginning
to be unable to afford it considering
how scarce the resources are what do you
want to be or do when you are an adult
at why one thing I definitely would like
to pursue is a position in governments
but also I try to keep things open
because I think there are many things
I’m capable of doing career in teaching
is one of my interests I think being a
global studies or history teacher would
be a good job for me also I’ve kind of
always fancied the idea of becoming a
lawyer because I think studying um I’ve
always liked studying the judicial
system
and things as such
