Senioritis: a common illness that is said to strike high schools across the nation and stand as an excuse for plummeting grades from the senior class. It is believed that seniors become incredibly antsy their last year of high school and are looking into the future for a solution to their bored life. Seniors also begin to question whether the classes they are taking are meaningful or not‚ while sloughing off the tension that comes with high school because they have been there four years and know

Austen incorporates many similarities throughout her other novels exemplifying themes such as: the role of women‚ ideal love‚ and social classes and hierarchies. I would not consider Sense and Sensibility to be Austen’s best novel as the conclusion is hasty and does not follow the same rate of progression like the other part of the novel; however‚ this fault can be forgiven and her later novels looked to as better examples of her work and mastery of comedy and satire. The historical context of the

Romeo makes very hasty decisions‚ some of which result in unnecessary consequences. On one occasion‚ Romeo sneaks into the Capulet Masquerade Ball where he meets Juliet and quickly forgets about his first true love‚ Rosaline. Romeo spontaneously decides he has fallen in love all over again‚ which reflects on Romeo’s impulsive character. “Did my heart love till now? Forswear it‚ sight! / For I ne’er saw true beauty till this night.” (Shakespeare 52-53) Romeo’s unwise behavior also results in the

I believe that the world would be a better place if more people realized that the actions of a few do not define an entire group of people. When influential public figures like Donald Trump use groups of people‚ like Mexicans and Muslims‚ as a scapegoat for America’s problems‚ it further perpetuates the stereotypes that those people have to suffer through every day. As you may know‚ Donald Trump has recently suggested that Muslims should be banned from entering the country. Scarily enough‚ there

Violence in media is healthy and beneficial for children—or so claims Gerard Jones‚ author of “Violent Media is Good for Kids”. It is undeniable that the title of Jones’s essay is straightforward and aptly named‚ if not confidently bold. But while his claim may boast confidence‚ it lacks credibility. Jones does do a great job introducing his controversial claim by using passion‚ persuasion‚ and personal experience. However‚ his insufficient evidence and fallacious reasoning fail to support

Creating the stereotype that men should be in charge over women comes from the majority of high ranking positions being given to men‚ but this is more of a hasty generalization than a stereotype. This “stereotype” and hasty generalization is a myth. Over the past decade women have proved themselves and have gained authoritative positions. Although the balance between women and men is not completely equal yet‚ the numbers are rising more

Shakespeare clearly portrays its youthful characters as being quick to act without thought or caution‚ this is not the case for all young people. Furthermore‚ it is my belief that all people‚ regardless of age‚ are capable of acting in an impulsive and hasty manner. It is evident from the play Romeo and Juliet that the two youthful protagonists are portrayed as being somewhat rash‚ as a direct effect of their tender age. One of the main lessons that the reader gains from the play is that impetuous behaviour

Two editorials were posted in the “New York Daily News” and “Times of Trenton” pertaining to the subject of legalizing gay marriage. Both articles argue the position against gay marriage and use the same focal point in their articles: the negative effects that legalizing gay marriages will have on children being raised by same sex parents. Also‚ both articles contain logical fallicies in their argument and use many of the same tactics to argue their point such as scare tactics‚ statistics‚ and quotes
