Euripides Essay In his proverb, Euripides implies that whoever won’t want to learn at a young age, he or she won’t want to learn earlier on in life and won’t have a bright future. Also that they would love to go back to learn but it will be too late! Euripides supports his implication because everyone that reads his proverb knows that it’s true. This proverb hit me and gave me so many thoughts. Euripides proverb means so much but in less words.
McEwan tells the story through his first person narrator, Joe. His ideas come across as contrasting, maybe hinting at his future lack of structure as a result of these events and the trauma they cause. The first sentence in the chapter is ‘The beginning is simple to mark,’ however in this chapter alone there are many theories and ideas thrown out there despite very little information being given away. He explains this by saying later “I am holding back the laying information”…”because this was a time when other outcomes were still possible”. With this, Joe describes many things in his current situation such as his girlfriend and the different settings in a large amount of detail, however, the one thing he does not describe once and the reader is given no information on is Joe himself- this could have a deeper meaning in the sense that Joe may be a man who always thinks about other people (however this may be contrasted with his deep sorrow and feeling of selfishness for releasing the balloon).
Also just like most other skills practice makes perfect and after awhile of practice you will be able to write just off any idea that floats in your head! C) The text starts with a rhetorical question ‘so you want to be a writer?’ and the person asking you the question isn’t expecting an answer from you as if you did not want to be a writer because if you did not want to become a writer you wouldn’t be reading this text that he has written about becoming a writer and also the fact that it continues with ‘is your pen poised and your pad ready?’ He gives a lot of good points on how to be a good writer and how to sty focused and set yourself a target and points and tips just like that but as an article as a whole after reading it I don’t think the writer has been at all successful with his article but he has failed as this text is supposed to make a reader convinced that the love writing but the text just doesn’t do that for me as I don’t like writing now but I used to like it before the text has put me off writing as it shows that even if you spend your whole life trying and trying you probably wont succeed and only a very few amount of people like j.k. Rowling will get
When you do this, it turns a boring topic into an interesting and fun essay for the audience. The author also talks about colorless words that they are words we use in everyday conversations, colorless words use are nothing and how student also use every day slang adjectives. He also added in their colorful words which means finding the right word in the right place, writers often struggle with this. I agree with the author on how we write essays, I must say everything he wrote in this story is true for me. I often have a hard time trying to figure out what words fit where to make complete sense of the sentences or paragraphs.
I stopped to ponder for a bit. I had to read the quote again and re-read it one more time before I could think about what it really meant, if it had only one meaning or maybe more, if it's a metaphorical term or maybe meant to be taken literally. I then automatically thought of the story Fahrenheit 451. I was to read this novel for an assignment in Philosophy, I read the entire book in a few days, but just because I read through the book page by page did not mean I comprehended what Bradbury was saying; just as when I read this quote by Voltaire, which I had to read and re-read again to start to comprehend what it meant. After all of that I still don't know if I have a full understanding, but I have my own view on the quote, as does everyone else, which is different from mine, and one another, that to me is, Philosophy.
THE VALUE OF THE GODFATHER In the article “What is the value of The Godfather?” David Clemens states that reading great literature may inspire students to behave as well as what they read. However, some books may have less value than the others may because it would lead the reader to a bad way in life. In addition, some books as Unabomber’s Manifesto, The Anarchist’s Cookbook, and American Psycho would not give any value to the reader, but they glamorize violence, drug use, or other illegal or immoral activity. For this reason, David Clemens agrees that The Godfather should not be made available in our public high school. I agree with David Clemens about banning The Godfather in our public high schools because the violent and criminal scene of the book as well as bringing the wrong impression to high school students that we embrace the intolerance worldviews in the Godfather First, The Godfather novel might present readers a great insight of the real world, yet this image is too violent to be taught for high school students.
Stalking the Wild Fallacy Last week we studied about argumentative essays, and how almost with exception, each of us, every day, argues for or against something with somebody. We learned that some argumentative essays declare the best solution to a problem. Others argue a certain way of looking at an essay. Whatever our exact purpose, our argumentative essay should be composed of a clear thesis and body paragraphs that offer enough sensible reasons and persuasive evidence to convince ours readers to agree with us. The class lecture on Monday was focused on how we must write argumentative essays with logic or our readers will reject our point of view.
Names like Le Spewer, Fishtail Le Sewer and Manure. He thought by turning the other cheek this would not give Barry Baglsey any opportunity to pick on him. What it did was show Barry Bagsley that hel was too afraid to stand up to him which meant that Barry Bagsley continued to pick on him and call him names all the time. If Ishmael had felt good about his name then he wouldn’t have needed to turn the other cheek he could have shown the bullies that he was proud of his name. Being proud of his name would have made him feel good and shown the bullies that what they said didn’t worry him.
Robin overpowered Rashad with verbal assault rather than encouraging ownership, involvement, and teamwork. Aggressive behavior does not encourage active listening because the person speaking is talking at the receiver, not talking to the receiver (Hansten & Jackson, 2009). The group witnessed a passive response by Rashad but had no idea that he was plotting a form of aggressive communication with Robin. Rashad internalized his emotions, planning a comeback toward Robin. He wants to teach her a lesson by making her workday difficult and time-consuming, so that she will realize how much she needs him.
What I did differently in this essay as opposed to my first, I stopped over analyzing. I drove myself crazy on my last paper trying to make myself sound like I cared about what I was writing, and even to make it sound a little more educated. In hindsight, I should have just written it in a “dumbed down” version and then later changed what I thought would have worked better. For this paper, I just kept writing, and didn’t over analyze anything. In all honesty, I was shocked at the good feedback a received because I felt like I hadn’t made it anything special.
