In Kenya, new mothers who cannot pay for the costs of their hospital treatment are detained in the hospital until they can pay. Our play was focused on this situation and specifically a new mother called Monica who cannot afford the costs. In the end her and her baby are…
Purpose: To determine relative oxidizing and reducing strengths of a series of metals and ions. Oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously side by side. A reduction reaction occurs only if an oxidation reaction occurs and vise-versa. Electrons are given in oxidation while in reduction electrons are gained. Oxidizing agent is a chemical substance which has a large tendency to gain electrons, while reducing agent is a chemical substance causes other substances to be reduced and itself oxidized. Procedure: For this lab was used metals and substances provided in the lab oxidation-reduction pack, and some extra materials. Using the well-plate and the correct amount of drops and the right metal on the right well, to see the reaction with each different substance. Observations: This experiment required some time and patience to analyze the results. For each well required a different substance and a different metal to be inserted in the well. Different metals react faster or slower depending the substance they are added. Na2SO3 with magnesium bubbles appeared around the magnesium piece and we could predict a reaction. MgSO4 with zinc No reaction observed Zn (NO3)2 with lead and aluminum No reaction observed FeCl3 with lead and aluminum reacts with foil, the piece dissolves in the solution and the lead piece seems to be oxidizing. CuSO4 with iron the screw seems to be oxidized quickly; it changes the color of it to a pinkish tone.…
In the chapter, Ancient Rhetorics: Their Differences and the Differences They Make, we discover that the job of ancient rhetoricians was to make decisions, resolve disputes, and deliberate publicly on moral and political questions brought forth within their communities (1). In the chapter, Kairos and the Rhetorical Situation: Seizing the Moment, we expand our knowledge on the ways in which we invent rhetorical arguments through the use of Kairos. Kairos is described as one tool of invention that a rhetorician may decide to use to better investigate an issue by asking themselves a set of specific questions to systematically solidify their rhetorical argument making process. (43). Ancient rhetoric holds a deep resonance in human society as we understand it. Playing a complementary part in the aspects of practicing rhetoric, the use of kairos helps us seize the moment in our use of rhetoric.…
Ancient Greek civilizations originated in 2000 B.C. and lasted to about 300 B.C. their culture still impacts Western civilization. Also Greeks spread their ideas all over the world. They contributed significantly with the ideas of geometry, philosophy, government, sporting events, architecture, sculpture, drama, and more. All of this came about and reached new heights during Greece’s “Golden Age”. This age lasted for about 50 years. Today all of our lives are greatly affected and influenced from the lives of Greeks.…
Ancient Greece influenced Western Civilization in many ways. Many ideas of the Ancient Greeks came from the city-state of Athens. The Greek culture has had a very large impact on the way people have lived. The Ancient Greek civilization made significant contributions to western civilization in the areas of government, philosophy, and math.…
The Ancient Greece culture has made many contributions to western civilization. The ancient Greeks affected the western civilizations math, government, sports, and medicine. They affected the western civilization in a big way. We even use some of these contributions today.…
The Greek Civilization lasted from 1900 – 133 BC, but the affect it had on the Western world is still here today. As Greeks conquered other empires and build more and more territory for them, they spread and received their ideas from other cultures. During these times, the Greeks made many long lasting contributions in the areas of art, architecture, philosophy, math, drama, government, medicine, and science. This is why many of the foundations of Western civilization can be traced back to the ancient Greeks. The sharing of their ideas, inventions, and contributions had a massive influence on the future of many civilizations.…
"A good writer is one you can read without breaking a sweat. If you want a workout, you don’t lift a book—you lift weights. Yet we’re brainwashed to believe that the more brilliant the writer, the tougher the going."…
The pieces in my portfolio well represent my writing ability. In the section of the rubric titled “Effective Communication,” I feel that I write at a level four. The rubric states that somebody on a level four “uses language that is stylishly sophisticated.” The Odyssey project shows use of sophisticated language because I used many advanced vocabulary words such as edifice, vengeance, Brobdingnagian, and mammoth. The rubric also says that a person should use multiple methods of communication in an effective and creative manner. While writing the sequel to the Odyssey, not every plot point is explained by the narration of the story. At one point, Polyphemus, a Cyclops on the verge of death, explains a major plot point during his last words…
The Ancient Greek contribution ranged by the 1900-133 BC, however its influence on the Western Literate Society lasts to this day. As the Greeks expanded their empire, they spread their ideas to other countries, while also borrowing from other cultures. During this period of time, the Greeks made many significant and long-lasting contribution to our modern culture in Philosophy, Art, Democracy, Drama, Math, and Science. These givings of important ideas, inventions, and structures have had an extraordinary influence on the surrounding environment, society, and in the future. The essential contribution of Greeks to the Western Civilization are Democracy, Art, and Philosophy.…
Alexander and his army travelled to the coast of Lake Mareotis in Egypt and found their location ideal for a city. His brilliant mind explained the exact layout of the future city to his architects. Here in Alexandria, the city named after him, people would worship both Egyptian and Greek gods and even utilize the harbor on the coast as a trading route. Alexander even constructed aqueducts and an irrigation system for the city. By blending Egyptian and Greek gods and technologies from Greece to Egypt, other cultures were now adopting Greek customs and thus started Hellenism.…
Greece’s culture is high context, which means that for the Greek culture the meaning of messages is determined by the context or the environment. Most of their communication is implicit. The members of the culture are skilled in reading non-verbal cues. Their interactions do not need explanation because of their common history. This is the reason why Greeks will interrupt what someone is saying while they try to figure out what is means. This is a common aspect of Greek communication. Greeks tend to speak quite loudly and with a lot of emotion. At times it may appear as if they are yelling and annoyed but it is most likely a normal tone of voice. Direct eye contact is expected it is viewed as a sign of interest and respect towards the speaker.…
