Marlin may have been a whole different clownfish with a different personality if the event of his wife and children being attacked was handled in a different fashion. Marlin not being able to protect his wife and children from the shark made him become very cautious of the ocean. It also made him be less of a sociable fish. If the event didn't take place Marlin wouldn't

In the Newsweek article “A Liberating Curriculum,” Roberta Borkat offers an example of a new grading program. Students now want to receive higher grades, but not do any homework or participate in class. Borkat writes how she has wasted over twenty years of her life grading papers and preparing lessons. She regrets how she has caused in convenience to over a thousand students. Borkat was enlightened on this when she was verbally attacked by one of her students.
A passing mention Frances Cayton heard in a history class was enough to fuel more than a year of intense research for a paper that never got a grade. In fact, it wasn’t even assigned. But that’s not to say that Frances, a senior at St. Mary’s School in Raleigh, wasn’t rewarded for her effort. Her paper was accepted for publication this fall in The Concord Review, a highly selective quarterly journal that publishes academic research papers from high school students. In Frances’ Western Civilization honors class sophomore year, teacher Lisa Grabarek mentioned that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin’s policies killed more people than Hitler did, and Frances wanted to know more.
My UCOR 101 teacher scrutinized the first paper that I wrote and he could tell it was written the night before and even referred to it as a high school paper. My first attempt at a college paper resulted in a bad grade and I knew changes had to be made for my second paper.
Winton explores the effect Fish’s drowning has on Oriel’s spirit, who, clearly characterised by the trait of ‘stickability’ and hard work, uses this as a way of covering up her inner turmoil. The Lambs reject god when Fish is brain damaged, and they alienate god and spirituality. “There they were. The Lambs of god. Except no one believes anymore…” Oriel longs for the comfort and security of her ‘mind country,’ in a similar way to Fish, yet it takes her a long time to reconcile with this tragedy.

He lost the ability of hearing in the war. My first impression of him thought that he is only one the disable students on campus. I can feel he is so shy, fear and low self-esteem around the class because I saw him, he is setting at the corner with his deaf interpreter. I thought his low self-esteem is only coming from his disabilities, but I never anticipated that he is one of the return solider. Then, in the first day of the chemistry laboratory, we need to choose the group to do all the experiment together for the whole semester.
