In the article “The Land of Opportunity” written by James Loewen the author argues that most students leave school (preferably high school) with no understanding of social inequality‚ mainly due to their assigned textbooks. When they are told by their teachers that America has a great deal of social inequality that continues to this day‚ the student’s reactions are never positive and almost always defensive. “The students blame the poor for not being successful. They have no understanding of the

“To the Virgins‚ to Make Much of Time” by Robert Herrick is a poem about encouraging young women to make the most of their youth because just like flowers youth fades away. People should not take youth for granted because it is not permanent. The author uses images from nature to describe someone’s young age. The images he uses are a rose dying and the sun setting. He encourages the virgins to embrace their youth‚ use their time wisely to find a husband‚ and implies that ageing is not so great. The

This literature review for Chemistry is to help answer the question how does the amount of air pressure in a soccer ball affect how high it bounces when dropped. I think the ball will bounce higher when it has greater air pressure. We will explore atmospheric pressure‚ “which is the pressure exerted by the weight of the atmosphere”. www.kids.earth.nasa.gov And air pressure‚ “which is the force exerted on you by the weight of air molecules”. Other items in play will be gravitational force and

The Handsomest Drowned Man in the World can be analysed as a parable for humankind’s need for meaning and the ability of ideas to transform the world. Written in 1968 by Gabriel Garcia Marquez‚ the short story follows a small village’s reaction as a drowned man washed up on their shore‚ where they proceed to create meaning within the man‚ effectively also evoking meaning within themselves. The readers are immersed by vivid imagery which‚ through magical realism‚ describes the absurd through a matter-of-fact

too much salt was added‚ then it will instead decrease the rate of the reaction. The data revealed that no additional amount of salt was the reaction that had the highest rate. As shown previously in the data table‚ the first trial’s average reaction rate of 4.5 mL/min was higher than the other two reaction rates where salt was added for trial 2 and trial3‚ 2.125 mL/min and 3.5 mL/min‚ respectively. There was some support for the prediction. Our prediction included the point that if too much salt

The Old Man and The Sea: An Analysis I read this book for the first time in high school and I remembered it just as well as if I had read it yesterday. As I read it again I remembered some of the same language‚ especially the old man talking to his hands. Cursing his left hand when it cramped up on him like it was a separate part of himself and had a mind of its own was particularly interesting. We can see immediately in the beginning of the book that this old man is in a struggle to catch fish

Question: Does the Underground man have a freedom of choice? Your Answer (just yes or no): Yes. Opposing Argument 1: The Underground man does not have a choice to live outside. For the reason that people in the upper world are not “mindful enough” and they will never understand him and his perception about the life. It is not the underground man’s choice to be born in such society. If he had a choice‚ he would be able to be in the society‚ where he could be pleased. Finally‚ he does not belong
