After reading both of the stories “Uncle Marcos” and “To Fly” and looking through them, going through the details I have in my own opinion that “To Fly” has the best information and description rather than a more fictional story. I see in the story in the text that it describes flying as it has transformed the way we do things differently such as exploration, our perspective on things in the world, and we always had flying set as an achievement.

Although “Uncle Marcos” is another good point of view it is not as realistic as it seems or says, this is why I choose “To Fly” as a better example for why humans have such a desire to fly. In conclusion I would support “To Fly” as the best choice and nothing else some others might say the same or different but I supported my reasons with textual
