Pathos is a rhetorical tool used to appeal to a reader’s feelings or desires. The importance of using pathos to appeal to the reader’s emotions is to make them feel at ease with the idea of a united world. Crystal’s pathos appeal is shown through unity to invite his audience to care about the argument. The author states that “It is now possible, using electronic mail, to copy a message to hundreds of locations all over the world virtually simultaneously…that is why people so often talk, these days, of the ‘Global Village.”’ (Crystal 358). This is the only part of the excerpt where Crystal tries to attach on to his audiences emotions.
There isn’t a viable reason not to implement it, and the few cons are outweighed by the pros. By using year-round school, both students and teachers would have access to school that is both rewarding and relaxing. A recent study compared sixty-four school variables, such as attendance, grades, discipline, and test scores, among year-round schools and traditional schools. The results showed that fifty-four of the sixty-four tested variables were more prominent in year-round schools (Chaika). If schools just gave the year-round calendar a chance, they are almost guaranteed to love it.
A second challenge of Hume is that we are able to possibly imagine that something can cause itself into existence. This challenge severely weaken's Aquinas argument from cause as it suggests that in fact there is no need for a fist cause as regress of cause and effect is disrupted. Anscombe's response to Hume is, in "When there is a beginning there must be a cause: Hume's argument exposed," that it may be possible to imagine this being the case but it is illogical to suppose that this is the case as it is a "contradiction to absurdity" to decide that "it could be" therefore "it is." It is similar to imagine that a magician may be able to pull a rabbit out of a hat without any prior knowledge of its existence but to suppose it is the case that this has happened is illogical. However modern theoretical and quantum physicists have begun to produce evidence that it is perhaps evident that energy has the ability to come into existence of its own accord which would
He tries to persuade that America’s conflict with Britain can’t be reconciled and wants to make it apparent that the idea of the British government is not best and does not protect America. Paine (1776) states, “We have boasted the protection of Great Britain without considering that her motive was interest not attachment; and that she did not protect
The next least plausible theory is the tale of Prince Madoc and the Madman. Although the author of the article believes that Madoc and Madman were the true discoverers of the New World, he does not provide any concrete evidence to support his opinions. All we are told is that in 1583 is the first surfacing of Prince Madoc’s tale. That is it. This does not make the reader believe that Prince Madoc is the true discoverer of the New World, contrary to the author’s beliefs.
This question is fairly easy for me. There are a thousand things I can think of (like writing a book, learning to dance, etc. ), but only one comes to mind that I really really would want: language. I would love to learn language after language until ... well really without stop. Learn a new language every year or two.
The dropout rates are astonishing and the report goes on to show that amazingly these children are given almost zero help or encouragement when it comes to getting any sort of assistance with their language skills. Grants in the millions of dollars range were eventually given for those who needed assistance with language problems. In the end it was not just the non English speaking students that were given assistance, but also the English speaking students that were also learning a second language. In The Pros of Bilingual Education (Maceri, 1999) out of Denver, CO the importance of bilingualism is looked over greatly. The fact that they are talking about doing away with the programs in all is what I find to be, quite shocking seeing as I took Spanish growing up.
Morse (1992) believes that the longer students are on vacation, the less material they retain. She further states that year-round education can improve the academic performance of students who cannot depend on their home care to help them with learning. This sounds logical, but Morse gives no supporting evidence that year-round education actually improves students' academic performance. In fact, Greenfield (1994) found that although teachers and parents may have observed some improvement, the results of standardized tests showed no such improvement. In addition, Peltier (1991) notes that when the scores of year-round school students were compared to those of traditional calendar students, no significant difference was seen.
Memo To: | Professor Flynn | From: | MaryBeth Still | Date: | July 4, 2014 | Re: | Research Topic Proposal | | | Going to a paperless system is good for all the right reasons. The first reason that is important in going paperless would be for every dollar spent in going paperless would yield the state a $ 30.00 return (Johnston, Spencer, 2005). It will make record keeping much easier for all involved both the carriers and our office. According to an article in Forbes magazine (April, 2013) by going paperless one will spend less time coordinating invoices, less money on envelopes and postage and by running things through the web it will make items easier to track. It will be good for our office cutting down on the clutter and
This does not keep illegal aliens from driving, even though they work low salaries, can’t afford an insurance and they often have trouble the road signs in english. I think that a solution for this giving the immigrants a permission to work legally in this country. They just want to work and they are not hurting anyone by doing this. Immigrants who have being living here for more then 10 years, have had their kid born or raised here do deserve a citizenship. Practically their kids have been raise here with the same culture as any american kid they speak the same language and have the same education.
