Amy Tan uses the precious jewelry that loses value when the Chinese mothers pass it down to their American grown children to demonstrate that the mother’s hope and wisdom also possess no value for the child because it was molded by a different culture that does not fit in with their way of life.

Topic Sentence 1: The Chinese mothers pass down their jewelry when their children are in a predicament presented to them by their American life; however, the jewelry does not possess qualities the American grown children need and therefore the mothers cannot use it to help them.…

In the articles “Three Cheers for the Nanny State,” “Ban the Ban!,” and “Soda’s a Problem but…”, all three authors present their arguments with facts, opinions, and counterclaims. However, one article presents itself better than the rest. I believe that the article “Soda’s a Problem, but...” was the most convincing article. Sarah Conly- the author who wrote “Three Cheers for the Nanny State”- argues that the soda restriction is a good idea because people would be stopped from making foolish decisions that they’ll pretty definitely regret.…
Boys beware is a short film that illustrates how homosexuals prey upon young boys and display them as sexual predators. This video is not effective for the intended contemporary audience because homosexuals are seen in a different sense of light in the new generation. This film gave false accusations about homosexuals, and portraits them as the villains in our society. Our society is filled with straight child predators, and how children are raped but that is not even reflected upon this short film. When reflecting upon the film Boys Beware, it was rhetorically ineffective because the intended contemporary audience is given false information about homosexuals, and how the film is biased towards homosexuality.…

Big Whale, Little Pool Did you know that 38 orcas at Seaworld have died prematurely and not one in captivity has reached its maximum life span? Recently, there has been controversy surrounding SeaWorld’s use of killer whales in shows. I believe that SeaWorld should not be allowed to keep these majestic animals for entertainment purpose because it is unnatural for these animals to live in such confined spaces and dangerous for the trainers, the public, and the whales.…
I'll admit; I've seen the nasty, embarrassing parts of this fandom, the parts which make potential armys want to avoid us. The inappropriate comments on YouTube, the delusional possessiveness over one member or another, those have certainly made their appearance. It's not been hard to notice Armys starting fanwars or hating on other artists for the sole reason that they are opposition. Hatred, rudeness, insensitivity, cruelty: I've seen them all. Such things sicken me, and should be addressed, but they're not all that I've seen.…
The essential characteristics of how knowledge is to humans as water is to fish can be summarized as follows. Firstly, the environment must be considered. This is important because while humans realize they are surrounded by new knowledge, many fail to express how to access that knowledge. Additionally, a person’s or a fish’s ability to choose must be considered. This is important because as fish do not have a choice to live in water, many people do not have a choice about what they think about.…
The existence of mermaids has been a long and controversial topic for years! The legends of mermaids have even been dated back to the time of Christopher Columbus discovering the Americas. Comparing mermaids to humans is quite an easy topic to discuss, but also maybe a far-fetched one as many people all over the world roll their eyes at the stories and tales of the existence of them. People are just afraid of what they don't know, that's why we say ''ignorance is bliss'', and when it comes to mermaids, there are many facts about their nature and how they may treat similar creatures like us is what scares us. Their basically from another world, just as aliens are and many are afraid of their intelligence and their likely-ness to overthrow our…
Participation in sports has become common among children and adults. Youth sports are a fun way for kids under 18 to participate in sports and have fun doing what they love. Some people argue that youth sports teach young athletes the value of teamwork and leadership. Others argue that youth sports have become too intense and competitive. I believe that youth sports have become too intense and competitive because of the increased injuries in young athletes and the attitude of parents and coaches towards the children.…
RuPaul 's Drag Race is one of many American reality competition television shows that debuted in 2009. The show focuses on drag queens and their ability to showcase their “charisma, uniqueness, nerve and talent” through a variety of challenges: acting, costume construction, modelling, fashion forwardness and more are assessed by a panel of judges, including host and titular drag superstar, RuPaul. Drag queens have always been central to the lgbtq rights movement, tied to the Stonewall riots and existing as hypervisible queer folk, so queens occupy a political space that questions gender, performance, identity, and art. As a consequence of this, sometimes these projected voices drown out and actively harm other members of the various communities,…
