Rudeness

One of the students piped up and said Teacher he is one of the Ewells, the whole school is full of them for one day. They only have to come one day a year and then leave. The Truant lady is afraid of them, and she only gets them here one day by sending the sheriff after them. “Truant lady feels she’s done her duty, and their paw and them is right mean and contentious.” Burris seemed quite proud of the recital given on his behalf and his family, when Miss Caroline told him to set back down;…

The rising tone at the end of an utterance is often used for asking yes-no questions and showing politeness or surprise, whereas the falling tone sometimes leads to rudeness and abruptness. A difference in tone changes the meaning of a group of words, phrases and sentence. The tone is used in the following example: if we read this sentence in a rising tone, this sentence means that I can’t hear, please tell again. Although…

Every feminist has come across someone who just doesn’t understand feminism. The same questions about whether we hate men, are all lesbians, and more have always cropped up. So, when I went to the internet looking for people who just don’t understand, I wasn’t disappointed. However, I was disappointed by the amount of feminists whose response was “you just don’t understand!” and left it at that. Even worse were the scores of “feminists” threatening people with rape and other atrocities just…

not care what—as she might have done if she had not been a respectable woman. The stronger the impulse grew to bring herself near him, the further, in fact, did she draw away from him. As soon as she could do so without an appearance of too great rudeness, she rose and left him there alone. Before she reached the house, Gouvernail had lighted a fresh cigar and ended his apostrophe to the night. Mrs. Baroda was greatly tempted that night to tell her husband—who was also her friend—of this folly…

Is there ever going to be equality between man and woman and why do societies view males and females differently…

Introduction Problematic student behavior is a pervasive topic in the educational field. Regardless of the behavior management training and information college graduates receive, multiple first-year teachers soon quit due to behavior issues in the classroom, according to a 2005 national survey (Teaching Tolerance, 2008). It is possible that these teachers have not yet recognized the idea that the students with behavior problems just want to be heard and understood. Behavior always has a purpose…

Works of literature is the creative expression of the time’s systems. Charles Dickens used many of his writings to reflect his current time period. He used his novel “Great Expectations” to highlight the conflicts of London during the Victorian era. Dickens identified the issues in London’s justice system, treatment of orphans, and education system in “Great Expectations”. One of the conflicts present in both “Great Expectations” and Dickens’ time is the legal system and its values. The court…

Every small teasing comment, touch of Karmen, smile, exchange of endearments or whisper and wink between them, just caused Duke's anticipation to increase. Whilst the teasing and talking was fun, and added to his appreciation of the woman, it also increased his desire to do something about it, and prove himself to be a man of his word, and to discover if Karmen was a woman of hers. Not that there was much doubt in his mind, from the first view of her up on stage the previous night, she'd exuded…

Algona High School’s production of “Our Town” by playwright Thornton Wilder shows that life in itself is beautiful and interesting, but that humans take it for granted every day. This is shown by the activities of everyday people living in Grover’s Corner, New Hampshire. This play shows that even the most mundane tasks and daily activities are still valuable and significant in life, and that though you may not see the end coming, it will come, and that this life we have is transient. The first…
