    Ray Bradbury, author of “The Pedestrian,” uses word choice to convey a dreary tone. Bradbury makes it evident that Mr. Leonard Mead is walking a desolate path by his feeling of being “alone in this word.” The author describes charming cottages as “walking through a graveyard”(The Pedestrian). This contrast gives the reader a feeling of lifelessness from what could have been an inviting neighborhood. There would be a different impact on the reader if the neighborhood was simply described as silent. Mr. Leonard Mead also notices how everyone is sheltered in their “grey and silent” homes(The Pedestrian). By describing the houses in this way, Bradbury is creating a dull atmosphere which supports the dreary tone of the short story. The author would…

    In “Both Sides Come Out Fighting: The Argument Culture and the Press”, Deborah Tannen explains that the Press over-simplifies and dramatizes situations, and validates ridiculous arguments in order to appeal to viewers. She provides many examples of the harm this practice can cause, and describes the “Argument Culture” which is present in society. The Press has sizable influence because the way that events are reported affects people’s perceptions, in turn this affects the events themselves. The Media relies on controversy and drama to make news more interesting. They may exaggerate what was said, or analyse non-existent tensions. In the pursuit of remaining unbiased both sides of a story will be equally represented. The societal belief that…

    Cohen makes a good case against the hypocritical reasons that the British gave for their treatment of the Native Americans. First, the British did not value the civilization they thrust themselves upon even though it had been successful for thousands of years. The "new world" was not technologically advanced like many European inventions such as the globe, and the black powder weapon; which gave the British the idea that their superior knowledge made them worth more as human beings. Submission to their rule was only alternative for Native Americans. Failing that, then force and treachery were a way to handle the "savages".…

    The lesson being taught in this poem is that there is a price for everything we have, and knowledge cannot be captured in a "bottle". The dragonfly is described in the poem as this little delicate creation which is very maneuverable and acrobatic. Less image than thought is saying the dragonfly has very little to show on top where things are obvious, this is an effective simile because people tend to think of bugs as having a very small brains. The dragonfly later on becomes the victim of the father. The child would not suspect that something as little and innocent looking can actually have a catch to it. The dragonfly is being compared to a hidden price is a very effective simile because it can disguise it self and not be found until it is too late. The poem also says "Swoosh went the net with a practiced hand" and the author implies that the father is an experienced man who already ran into something that had a catch to it, he is trying to use the bug as an example to his son to teach him what he learned the hard way. The dragonfly is killed when it's captured and that shows how you can kill knowledge when you try to capture it. Killing the knowledge when trying to collect it is the whole catch to it. I can relate to the lesson taught in this poem. I can think of a lot of times when my parents talked to me about something but later that week I'd go and do the exact opposite. For example every winter my mom told me to wear my jacket but I'd just run off outside without it and every winter I would get sick, now that I grew up a bit I understand why she was telling me that. Very little can be learned about life just from words, to really understand something you have to go and try it out yourself. Later on you start understanding why adults tell you all these things that you didn't want to listen to. When people become adults they try to pass the lessons they learned onto their children who are the exactly the same way their parent were when they were little.…

    After his near death experience with getting ran over by a train, he is told that is god’s doing by the Presbyterians. Will questions what God’s will really is for him. To have his question answered he goes to the only person who won’t look down on will for asking, his grandfather. Will asks him “Am I alive because of God’s will?” In which the grandfather responds with “God gave you a brain.” This is an important response because it shows that grandpa believes God doesn’t do everything and isn’t everyone’s personal genii. Without the near death experience, Will never would have learned to question what he has been taught which a sign of coming of age is. These new ideas gave Will new way to look at life. He was able to find light inside…

    In this world there are several features that are undefined; such as mathematical variables, ethics, and even aspects of day to day activities. Encased in these undefined aspects is plagiarism, or at least it is per Malcom Gladwell. Gladwell, in “Something Borrowed”, expresses his views on, what he considers, three central issues with plagiarism. His first issue is that when it comes to academics or literature it has become never acceptable to copy another’s work. Gladwell’s second concern centers around the question of what does and does not hinder creativeness. Finally, his last dispute with plagiarism is that people have been encouraged to believe “that a writer’s words have a virgin birth and eternal life” which is simply not true. Over all, Gladwell’s key argument is the question of where is the line between borrowing another’s work tolerable and transformative, and when is it blatantly stealing? By examining Gladwell’s three central issues, it can become apparent there is almost no line amongst borrowing and stealing another’s work because plagiarism is quite undefined, in a generalistic sense.…

    Times are changing different cultures; they come and go but are going back to their old cultures. Since the beginning of time humans always have a key feature in their nature that help them evolve, become smatter, and acquire their rights; also, one of the biggest features that is changing throughout time is will. Will is the desire or drive to do something, so a strong willed person is someone with a powerful will. Through time, humans of all races and cultures have used will in a good way. For example, when Martin Luther King was locked in jail after protesting for the treatment of blacks, he still kept his will strong, even after everything he had gone through. When will is used in a good way, it can have a huge impact…
