Globalization
KinShing Cheng ESL 5-61 Ms Stranahan 4/24/2013 JOURNAL# 1 After I read the novel “To Kill A Mockingbird”, I think that the writer want tell the people should not judges a person by first impressions, because she believes these judgments are mostly incorrect. I choose Boo Radley as a good example for that. Through several chapters, most of you would feel that he is an eccentric boy, different from other kids. He always stays at home; do not play with other Childs, and also attacked his father. The boys asking him come out to play each other, but everyone is scary. As Dill said, "We're asking him real politely to come out sometimes, and tell us what he does in there—we said we wouldn't hurt him and we'd buy him an ice cream." "You all have gone crazy, he'll kill us!" "It's my idea. I figure if he'd come out and sit a spell with us he might feel better.” (5.72-76). So Boo seems like a good question to them. Also though those sentence I can image the feeling which it head of them. My first issue is about can you be human without communication. I would say no way. Because I think that Trust and respect can be established with communication. Also communication is a important foundation of our relationship. Through a communication, we will find the better way to understand each other. In novel, because the Childs never communicate to Boo, so they easily misunderstand him. The next important idea is about should judges a person by first impressions? At the beginning of novel, the Childs think Boo is out of control, and how come he could attack his father such as a bad guy. I think that is a common, because if a person give you a good first impression, you usually hold it off

    In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird the character “Boo” Radley is portrayed as an evil and creepy specter of a person who prowls the neighborhood at dusk as if to remain invisible to the outside world around him who would otherwise judge and reticule him. He is thought to be all of these horrible accusations as well as others such as dangerous and prone to violence when in reality he is a mockingbird, a symbol of good and innocence . It is not until the end of the novel that Boo’s true character is reviled when he saves the Finch children from a truly evil man who wishes to harm or even kill them. Boo’s arrival seems to serve as a sense of justice in a time much deserving of it.…

    At the start of the story we (the audience) are introduce to the main characters; Atticus, Jem, Boo Radley, Robert Ewell, Scout, Tom Robinson, Calpurnia, and more. Boo Radley in “To Kill a Mocking Bird” is the character that we 1st get to see being judge. Jem and Scout see Boo Radley at first as nothing but a “malevolent phantom" (chapter 1 pg. 8) it states “Inside the house lived a malevolent phantom” Everything that surrounds Boo Radley would be the rumors and myths. Boo Radley seems to have never came out his house unless it was needed for. As Boo Radley saved Jem and Scout from being killed by Bob Ewell, we (the readers) finally get an actually inside look into Boo Radley. Him saving them (Jem and Scout) showed that he is actually a humane person who puts others 1st before himself, who isn’t what the townspeople say he is. When he performed that act of heroism, both Jem’s and Scout’s views had been understood towards him; really realizing that Boo…

    Certain uncanny resemblances between Tom Robinson and Boo Radley's lives exist in Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird. Often large groups of people misunderstand certain unusual individuals. Sometimes they stereotype the person; other times, they simply do not bother to find out the truth. When such circumstances occur, the ostracized person's actions become unfairly misinterpreted or not understood at all. Sometimes rumors circulate about the individuals, that might then be assumed as the truth. In this novel, Tom and Boo are both outsiders to the white, normal society of Maycomb county. Tom and Boo share generous natures that are misunderstood; they hold little social value, and are generally assumed guilty.…

    Hating or judging without any rhyme or reason, simply because my parents and my uncle said, “Don’t go near him”. Earlier in the novel, Boo Radley is described by the folk of Maycomb as a freak. This gave the children a preconceived impression that he was a frightening phantom that lurked in the Radley Mansion prompting Dill to lead Scout and Jem to mock and conjecture the Radleys through their games. The children’s subconscious prejudice against Boo Radley may have been out of innocence but as Atticus puts it, they were “tormenting” him. Later in the novel, they realised Boo Radley was vastly different from what they heard about him, instead he was someone who wanted to befriend them by gifting them and even saved them when Bob Ewell tried to kill them. This further brings out the injustice of the children’s prejudice as they had already judged Boo negatively, prior to knowing him when actually he was nothing like what the townsfolk told them. From this short episode, we learn that lacking a reason to bear prejudice can bring about a greater injustice towards the…

    The townsfolk in the story To Kill A Mockingbird don’t really pay attention to who’s actually who. They overlook people who don’t need to be overlooked.They overlook the quiet ones like Arthur “Boo” Radley and they think he’s a creepy middle aged man who has no life and lives in the dark. They all think he's a bad guy because of the bad childhood he had in the past. Just because someone is quiet or different compared to others doesn't mean you need to overlook them or listen to rumors about them until you know the truth about him or her and get to know them. I'm a quiet person myself and people do sometimes overlook me and think I'm someone that I'm really not. It's not a very good feeling that people should be put through because they're different.…

    Instead of taking the opportunity to understand characters beyond their outer shell, the townspeople let their clouded judgment assume the worst in people. Characters like Arthur “Boo” Radley, Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose, and Tom Robinson are regarded as abominable human beings. Atticus Finch always told his children, Jem and Scout, “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view…until you climb into his skin and walk around in it” (39). The townspeople judged Arthur “Boo” Radley because he was a recluse.…

    In the beginning of the novel, Boo Radley is locked away from society at the hand of his parents; “The doors of the Radley house were closed on weekdays as well as Sundays, and Mr. Radley’s boy was not seen again for fifteen years.1” This unusual seclusion kept by the Radleys, Boo Radley in particular, allows them to live separate from the town’s cruelty and racism. Boo, especially, has never dealt with the towns injustice, seeing as he has been locked away as a prisoner in his own home since he was a young teenager. Due to this, Boo still holds on to his childhood innocence, even as a grown man. Given this, Boo is another “mockingbird” in the story as he remains innocent, and untouched by prejudice and hatred. The subplot revolving around the mystery of Boo Radley emerges again in the last chapters of the novel. As Boo kills Bob Ewell to save Jem and Scout, Scout remarks that taking Boo to court, or allowing people to know about Boo’s heroic action would, “Well, it’d be sort of like shootin‘ a mockingbird, wouldn’t it?1’” It can be seen here that pulling Boo into the town’s limelight, to recount the horrors of the attack, or his own life’s treacheries, would destroy Boo’s innocence. As a result of his imprisonment, be it in his own home, Boo has the mental capacity of a teenager; he is also lacking in social skills, having had little to no human connection,…

    The different experiences that Scout has with Boo Radley show how children change their perspectives of people after understanding them. In the earlier stages of the book, Scout and Jem, her brother, fantasize about Boo and think of him as kind of a monster. Scout’s father, Atticus, once said “You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view – until you climb around in his skin and walk around in it” (Lee 22). This proceeds to become true later in the book when Scout walks Boo home and sees things from his perception. Scout then realizes that Boo is a person to and not the fabled monster everyone makes him out to be. Scout’s experiences…

    Globalization -the fact that our economic systems and culture are networked as part of a global system- has significance in marketing. For instance, Theodore Levitt made the case that since the world is becoming standardized and homogenous companies must adapt (The Globalization of Markets, Harvard Business Review). According to Levitt, companies have the opportunity to offer the same products everywhere and run global marketing campaigns (i.e. standardized campaigns). He attributes the main force driving this trend to technology and the fact that human beings desire similar things.…

    Globalization is a historical process that is inevitable and irreversible. It defies geography and you can get anywhere. It compresses space and time. It connects people of different places and culture. Globalization can happen slowly or quickly in some centuries. We are in a world that is inter-connected, inter-related, and inter-grated. Globalization began in 1492 with Christopher Columbus’s discovery of America making the United States of America the first globalized civilization. Thomas Friedman believed that Economic Globalization began with the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and allowed for a sea of changes in the way of thinking and acting.…
