Alan Turing created an incredible machine named Christopher. When Alan was in school‚ his best friends name was Christopher. Alan was often bullied for being different. He was a genius but none of the other boys accepted that except for Christopher. Christopher appreciated

The Imitation Game This film is based on the biography of Alan Turing‚ a British mathematician. He is widely considered as the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence. Turing is best known for breaking the Enigma machine. It was during World War II‚ when almost all the European countries were trying to find out what the rivals are up to. There was a need to keep the information secret from the competitors. Arthur Scherbius‚ a German engineer developed an ultimate machine

creative. Imitation can be looked down upon by society; however‚ it is not as bad as it is chalked up to be. Imitation allows people to establish themselves. People have role models and admire them. A person aspires to achieve as much as their idol has done. Imitating a role model is necessary to be original and creative because mimicking allows one to be put in a position to influence others and to build upon qualities of the role model. Athletes are an everyday example of imitation. Athletes

I agree with Emerson’s quote‚ “Imitation is Suicide”. For example‚ in the book To Kill a Mockingbird‚ Boo Radley was known as the monster that lived in the Radley’s Basement. A rumor spread saying he did something horrible to his father. But in the end‚ they are shocked to find out Boo Radley is actually very nice. Another example is‚ he saved Jem and Scout from being murdered. Saving Jem and Scout showed that he is not all bad of a person. Imitation is Suicide‚ be yourself for any chance you get

Delilah Johnson: An Imitated Life Imitation of Life can indubitably be considered one of the most moving and influential films ever produced in American cinema history. Based on the 1933 novel by Fannie Hurst‚ the movie is directed by John Stahl and stars actresses Claudette Colbert and Louise Beavers; it depicts the story of two widows‚ one black and one white‚ who meet‚ become friends‚ and work together to obtain their piece of the American dream for their daughters and themselves (Flitterman-Lewis

Imitation of Life is an interracial film between a black woman (Delilah) and white woman (Bea). I think the whole film try to express a new idea to the audience‚ black people are equal with the white people‚ they can work together‚ live together‚ and even they can open a business and corporate successful. But even though the director tries to make the imitation nicely‚ it still have the big interracial problem from the film beginning through the end. For my view‚ I think the whole film potentially

It is absolutely necessary for humans to imitate others before they can become original and creative. Imitation is instinct for all animals and is used as a way to learn. Animals that leave their young before they have had a chance to develop have a much higher mortality rate than species that stay and teach their young. Sea turtles‚ for example‚ don’t stay with their young and never get the chance to teach them essential survival techniques. As a result‚ a large number of newly hatched sea turtles

The Imitation Game is set During World War II and follows Alan Turing‚ British mathematician as he is enlisted to try to break German codes encrypted using Enigma machines. It shows the process through which Turing worked to crack the code. When Britain declares war on Germany in 1939‚ Turing joins a cryptography team‚ led by Commander Denniston‚ aiming to crack ciphers created by Enigma machines‚ which the Nazis use to provide security for their radio messages. Turing prefers to work alone‚ considering

I am not a singer or a dancer. I cannot break it down on the dance floor or sing a sweet melody. I am not one who can feel the rhythm of the music and move my body in sync with it. I cannot entice someone with the power of my voice. I am a texter. And by that definition‚ I am someone who has always loved communicating without speech.

Descartes is totally right to be suspicious about ’the given’ before accepting it as the establishment of learning‚ however‚ in the meantime‚ it is not the bravest thought to be distrustful about everything. Throughout first Meditation‚ Descartes disposes of all his past obtained opinion‚ which from his sense is highly dubious. (Descartes‚ Meditations I‚ pg.1‚para. 1) Accordingly‚ he chooses to rebuild his insight from a specific ground and totally believe in things that are indubitable. (Descartes
