Critiquing an Essay with George Orwell’s six rules In Orwell’s essay he states that it is easy to slip into the bad writing that people have become accustomed to. It is difficult to go against the temptation of using the easy way out with meaningless words or hackneyed phrases that make things easier and require less thought. Orwell concludes that the progressive decline of the English language is reversible and he offers six rules which can help avoid most of the errors in poor writing. In Brenda Chow’s essay The Writer at Work, she breaks many of the six rules that Orwell wrote to avoid the continuation of our language decline. Chow breaks the following 3 rules: never use a long word when a short one will do, never use a simile, metaphor, or other figure of speech which you are seeing in print, and never use a foreign phrase, a scientific or jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
These hopeless societies are easily indoctrinated by the persuasive tools of propaganda as their fears, anxiety and anger cloud their ability to use logic and reason. Economic hardship has a strong correlation to the effectiveness of propaganda as the poorer people are the more susceptible they are to apparent ‘solutions’ offered by leaders in power. On the contrary, rhetoric does not need a platform of fear and desperation to be of use, as rhetoric, in its traditional form, promotes the use of logic and reason to arrive at an intellectual answer. Although fear and anxiety may be present at a rhetorical act, they are not requirements that are depended on for
Combinations of colors that exist in harmony are pleasing to the eye. However, colour harmonies are difficult to define because they are subjective; those that apeal to some people, repel others. Although human eyes are sensitive and efficient in sorting out, responding to, and creating harmonies of colour, it has proven impossible to formulate and establish absolute rules for harmony. 3.1 Colour wheels The color wheel is the basic tool based on red, yellow and blue. A circle shape that is divided equally in to 12 sections, with each section displaying a different color according to its pigment value.

It reduces them to a level which is considered safe and not harmful to health however is may not necessarily destroy some viruses. Disinfection should not be used as a substitute for sterilization as it will not achieve the same reduction in microorganisms as sterilization will. Sterilization- Sterilization renders an object free from viable microorganisms, including viruses and bacterial spores. Sterilization can be achieved by steam, hot air, ethylene oxide or irradiation. Autoclaving is the most common method, it uses steam under pressure to sterilize instruments and is the most reliable method.
Outcome 4.2 Explain the importance of an accessible complaints procedure for reducing the likelihood of abuse It is important to have an easy accessible complaints procedure so people know where to find it. They may not want people to know they are filing a complaint so may not want to ask where the forms are. It should be a straight forward form and not too complicated as people may not bother to fill it out otherwise. More issues can be dealt with once a form has been filled out and it can reduce the likelihood of abuse. Unit
The current P-plate laws are extremely affective in reducing accidents on the road.This is because they deal with many of the dangers p-plate drivers face while driving, including distractions, driving speed, peer pressure and driver safety. To begin with, the current p-plate laws are affective in reducing accidents while driving because they deal with the important issue of distractions. An example of a distraction that is dealt with by the current p-plate laws is mobile phones. Mobile phones cannot be used by p-plate drivers when driving or while the car is moving or stopped but not parked. This helps to stop accidents because it removes distractions from a p-plate driver so they can focus solely on driving.
The examples provided in the text illustrate just how easy it is to be redundant and not realize it. For example, phrases such as “absolutely essential “or “a total of 68 participants” are errors regularly committed on my part. Being able to identify redundancy will be a focus as I work towards more clear and concise writing. As a commitment to reducing bias in writing, the rule I will remember is “recognizing that differences should be mentioned only when relevant” (p. 71). I did not realize how easy it is to unintentionally use bias language.
So why is it that we would say that the possibility of genetic engineering being used for something less urgent than preventing a life-threatening illness is a reason to not allow it to be used at all? I think it might be a very good thing to take a few steps down the slope. Genetic engineering of this type is in its infancy, but you could easily foresee a time when we could address all kinds of not life-threatening but still bothersome conditions. So I totally agree with the procedure, if we could free people from things on the order of allergies or myopia, which would be an enormous benefit to
The rule being imposed has been beneficial there is no need to get away from what has been working. As the saying goes” if it aint broke don’t fix it” the logic remains the same in regards to the small knives law. There needs to be more focus placed on lifting some of the other items that are currently banned that pose less of a conventional threat amongst passengers. Pepper spray is an item that shouldn’t be banned and would give passengers a little feeling of security without endangering multiple passengers. If TSA took a pole to actually survey what passengers feel should be acceptable carryon luggage they would have a better understanding of what & how to go about making necessary changes or
