Pip becomes self-aware and realizes the differences in classes and knows he wants to move up the social web. Pip has moved to London and fulfilled his dream of becoming a gentleman when Joe notifies him that he is coming to visit. “Whatever I acquired, I tried to impart to Joe. This statement sounds so well, that I cannot in my conscience let it pass unexplained. I wanted to make Joe less ignorant and common, that he might be worthier of my society and less open to Estella's reproach.” (1.15.2) When Joe
However, in Fahrenheit 451 Beatty describes conformity as a positive aspect of society – he argues that conformity in behavior prevents violence and jealousy by restricting the gifted and talented people from their ability to excel, which is good in a way because then the others won‘t feel bad. However, the real problem in the situation Beatty describes is not the exceptionally bright child (when he is trying to show Montag the uselessness of books) but the group of people of those who submit to it. Unfortunately, this very situation occurs repeatedly in our society today. People who choose not to conform may be persecuted by the groups of people who submit into censorship, and through that act of persecution the people reinforce conformity of
Another example is the shifting social attitudes which mean that it is more accepted in society for men to do housework. Young and Wilmot’s give a few other reasons for a symmetrical family. One example is that families are becoming privatised- this means that families are more children cantered and spend more time at home. This privatisation has occurs because the families are more affluent- have more money- and due to geographical mobility- they have less help from nearby family members. On the other hand, another group of sociologists believes that families are not symmetrical.
Moreover it’s an improving neighborhood and taking into account his financial considerations, he wouldn’t get better deal. Risk is something which all the investors consider before they take a decision. Alexander is getting better returns when compared to the risk he has taken at the moment. It is a known fact that he has put a lot of pressure on himself, which might affect his work life, but once the renovation is completed and the tenants occupy the place, the going will get easier. 2.

Would that reader feel animosity towards the hero now? Would they think the hero is a vigilante? Or would they still love the hero and think what was happening is something they feel was necessary for the hero to do? I feel there are many different feelings about the story being read by a person that may have make that particular reader feel one thing, but the next reader may feel something completely different. Like when I read about Margery Kempe, I had forgotten for a second that the character of the story was an actual person so I was intrigued by the story, but then I realized that the story was fictional and the character was a real person and my thoughts changed from somewhat excited about the story to something in between remorse and sorrow for what that poor lady had to endure all by herself pretty much.
When parents say their concerns about banning the book it makes other people realize that maybe it should be banned, but they don't see the lesson being taught underneath all the demeaning language and situations in the novel. Parents should think deeper when they read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn since they are not thinking hard enough to see the literary worth of this novel to students. However, this novel should only be read by students who are in middle school and in high school because it gives the students a clear idea of what a good novel is. A novel that contains all literary worth and it can broaden their way of thinking about the real world. Also, something to consider about parents being concerned about this novel was probably the fact that they are scared of what the past contained.
This makes the 9th member of the student worried on whether their answers are right so therefore they start to copy the rest so they don’t feel left out.

For example if a bunch of friends were drinking alcohol, you would join in with them so you don’t feel the odd one out. Self-esteem can be known as conformity as an individual would copy someone else’s behaviour so they fit into the society they live in. Various things can affect conformity such as your job and the law we abide.
Throughout the story, readers are not told that the Burnell family is rich but we are able to understand this through the way in which this family, and in particular the children, are described. This technique helped to make the writer’s idea clear that people who are in the top social class, the Burnell family in this story, did not think a lot about those that are in the lower social class, and that they are the people who set the standards for everything, even when they themselves do not have very high moral values and desirable attitudes. The
This is because of the illegal immigrants that will quickly fill any openings and work for lower wages. Those who are working and making what the normal wage would be are being pushed out by under bidders. The debate on whether the immigrants help or hurt the economy is still at large. If we keep the immigrants here more Americans are left unemployed, but the cost of housing would decrease. On the other hand if the government tries to deport these illegal immigrants and succeeds the housing costs will once again go up, but it gives American citizens
