    Explorer Persuasive Essay

    • 637 Words
    • 3 Pages

    An explorer can be defined as a person who ventures into unfamiliar territory. The term “explorer” is very vague for a number of reasons. First, the definition can imply to anyone who ventures outside of one’s own comfort zone. This can apply to a man that likes to study science, or a woman that applies for a job, even to a kid who likes to travels outside their neighborhood. Clearly, these examples go against common intuition when someone thinks of Indiana Jones and Jack Sparrow.…

Some nations however, such as the Norwegian and Japanese have whaling deeply rooted in their culture and history. For many centuries, their ancestors took part in whaling as a means to sustain their life, livelihood and culture. I agree with the Norwegian and Japanese position on permitting the hunting of non-endangered species of whales as a cultural exemption, given that the hunting of the whales is regulated to prevent over-hunting so that the whale population can replenish.…

    Another issue of Japanese education, especially when compared to western countries, would lie in the effects of Japan’s homogenous characteristic of its citizens. While this unique national trait helps bring the country and its inhabitants together as a whole, in schools this tends to take away from individuality, especially when it comes to students that were born differently from the standard Japanese. In an article in The Japan Times, the most popular English-language newspaper in Japan, O’donoghue (2015) says that although differential treatment is not incited in Japan, “by emphasizing sameness they [the teachers] could be instilling conformity and intolerance of difference.” Each student’s uniqueness seems to be taken away due to this…
