The American Dream, deemed to be the greatest opportunity for prosperity and affluence in the world, and regarded by the masses as the ideal standard of living, is the quintessential lifestyle many yearn to live. However, many overlook the associating sense of delusion and deception that corresponds amongst it, resulting from the excessive fantasizing of prospective wealth, and this mindset is truly apparent in the novel, Death of a Salesman. The novel was written in 1949, the pinnacle of the…

I think that the author R.J. Palacio chose the song Beautiful Things for the Miranda section because Miranda alway say that Auggie is beautiful and is like a brother to her. I think that because on page 165 it says “ I've known Auggie since I was six years old. I've watched him grow up. I've played with him. I've watched all six episodes of Star Wars for his sake, so I could talk to him about the aliens and bounty hunters and all that. I'm the one that gave him the astronaut helmet he wouldn't…

“Broken” English negatively impacts immigrants on a daily basis. A great example of this negative impact is shown through “Mother Tongue” by Amy Tan. Tan’s parents fled from China in the 1940’s with many other people because of China’s Cultural Revolution and when they came to America, they had trouble assimilating with Americans. Tan, on the other hand, had a less difficult time adapting to the American Culture because she was born in America. In Mother Tongue, Tan begins the passage by…

Randomness Chapter 10 in Ben Goldacre’s book Bad Science is called “Why Clever People Believe Stupid Things” and the title alone hints what the upcoming theories will be about. When I read the title of the chapter, the first thing I thought about was superstitions and luck. As I read on, I discovered that the theory does actually touch upon the topic of luck. The Randomness theory discusses how humans have a habit of making something out of nothing (Goldacre, 2008). Goldacre provides a few…

The editorial highlights that while “the controls are not foolproof” they have saved “many human lives”. The use of evidence facilitates that editorial in giving the reader an abundance of reasons to side with them, while also solidifying their contention. The reader is made to believe that if it had proven effective before in saving human lives, then it should not be…

the planets in the solar system, which are over 4.5 billion years old (Cain). Scientist have come to this conclusion using theory’s and methods from finding the age of old rocks, some even as old as 4.2 billion years old (Cain). The bible lacks the evidence to support how rocks found beneath the surface of the Earth could be older then Earth itself. At some point in Earths early life, a planetoid crashed into it and formed what we call the Moon (Cain). All these findings come together to support…

been bad but it had not been good. She had so much to learn about The Light. Though her uncle had taught her much over the last five months, her knowledge couldn’t compare to her classmates’ who had been living it and studying it all their lives. Evidence of that became painfully clear when Professor Berit handed her a huge stack of books at the end of class, among them a picture book called, Welcome to The Light, Lucy! How embarrassing. At least Professor Berit hadn’t placed that book on top of…

Writing notes effectively is a skill that is necessary for most any job. Whether it’s jotting down a DIY project, a recipe, or a piece of art work, making comments and acknowledging pertinent information to remember for later is a part of learning and building growth of mind. The anecdotal notes provided for analysis have many flaws in their collection of data. By utilizing anecdotal notes, teachers can provide a tangible vision of a child’s learning, through an objective, focused approach that…

there are two sides: the plaintiff and defense. The plaintiff’s role is to prosecute the defendant with a crime, and the defense’s role is to vindicate the defendant of the crime accused. To do so, a story must be told, followed by an argument with evidence as aid. The person in charge of the final verdict is the judge or the jury. In the book, Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson, the readers become the jury and Stevenson is the lawyer who is presenting the injustice within the case of Walter…
