Descriptive Essay On A Shark Game

As Abraham Lincoln once declared, “Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.” Nevertheless, there are many people who embody this quote in our everyday lives and even in literature. In the short story The Truth About Sharks composed by Joan Bauer, it perfectly elucidates such a character. In this short story the main character Beth is forced to go to her Uncle Al’s birthday party although she doesn’t want to. She also doesn’t have anything she thinks she can wear; therefore, she goes to a department store called Mitchel Gail’s where she finds a pair of black pants she likes. While she enters the store, she passed the sentinel and there was a sign that read, “Shoplifters will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.” Beth thought that

Sharks are the top predators. But frankly, they are starting to vanish out of oceans every day. The sharks biggest enemy are humans. Us humans will kill sharks for food. Sometimes people will even take shark teeth and turn them into jewelry. Humans also will cut off the shark’s skin, and turn it into leather.

The day the team got together and fought threw a tough battle facing pinnacle high school. It was our second home game and our record was 1-2. After all of the hard work we had put in over summer, we realized we could not lose, especially in front of our home crowd. At the beginning of the game we did our usual warm-ups, I have never felt so much adrenaline pushing threw my veins in my life. After the warm-ups the whole team got in a big huddle, we chanted a chant that will never be forgotten and one day make history for the pride. After the chant we got ready for kick-off, lined up and ready to go. The crowd started cheering at the first 2 seconds of the game “go pride go, go pride go”. This made the whole team nervous, not just because there was so many

Imagine a world without your favorite foods you have ever consumed. Imagine a world where you cannot even enjoy your favorite beach on vacation because of unmanageable algae taking over our coasts. Imagine a world with a huge spike in greenhouse gases, and a dramatic decline of natural oxygen production. This is a world without the most feared and misunderstood creature that rules our oceans, the Shark. In an advertisement published by WWF, it conveys the message of what we should actually be fearing, the fall of our marine ecosystems and what that will do to humanity. The advertisement uses all three appeals of ethos, pathos, and logos to push their targeted audience to further their education on our world and to spread the word to everyone

Preview statement: Not only is the killing of sharks extremely inhumane, it does more harm than good to our environment.

The year was 3456, Gerald and his crew are from the deep Alaskan mountains, the new capital of the United States. No one really knows who they are except for eachother. They can not have anyone know where they live or who they are because they have and illegal job. Gerald and his crew illegally moonshine. Gerald says that it is the best tasting thing he has ever had. He has a very nice log cabin that he made in the mountains. It has everything that you would need. It has cable, lights, wifi, an endless amount of guns, and is built well enough to uphold the devastating winter storms. All of this makes him feel warm when it is really freezing cold. Each crew member has a snowmobile and a jeep to get around to the hunting spots, gold mines, and moonshine spots. Gerald loves to snowboard, mountain bike, and fish. The whole crew goes on a fishing trip on the coast of Florida. Technology had moved to the sea, and the fish are almost as advanced as the humans.

Everyone makes mistakes so think of the few mistakes you have made. How would you feel if you were held against those few mistakes for the rest of your life. You messed up a few times and ever since, that is all anyone notices. You are treated like a terrible person because of an unintentional mistake you made a while ago. Just like that, sharks are creatures that have accidently bit a human here and there.

On Thursday, October 19, I attended the Sacred Heart versus Notre Dame hockey game. I have previously attended hockey games at Compton Family Ice Arena both in and out of the student section. However, this experience was slightly different than my previous ones since many students were still away for fall break. The lack of students created a much different atmosphere especially because at Notre Dame Hockey games the crowd tends to feed off the excitement of students. This was obvious during certain songs such as “Turn Down for What” by DJ Snake and Lil Jon which elicits strong responses from students but created little excitement minus the students. However, the crowd did feed off the band. The crowd joined in during “let’s go Irish”

“A loud and spirited crowd has the potential to alter the result of a game” (Benavidez). Almost every sport’s fan in the world would agree. A large crowd is one thing, but a large crowd who is passionately cheering on their team plays a crucial role in sporting events. When asked the question on how school spirit affects his team’s performance, Seth Mcgowen responded, “It increases the morale of the player. When we see there’s a big crowd there cheering us on, we feel like we have to do better so that we don’t let them down. If they’re shouting my name and cheering for me personally, it makes me step up my performance and do something great.” Key words in Mcgowen’s response are “cheering us on” (Benavidez). Mcgowen said an enormous crowd is not what encourages the team, but an enormous crowd that cheers does. Former Tupelo High School basketball coach Jerry Lee Clayton preached the importance of having school spirit and used to tell his players, “A school without spirit is nothing, but a school with spirit has the power to do miraculous things.” Athletes want school spirit from their town and school because they have the chance to feel an emotional connection with the fans. What team wants to compete for a school that does not support them, but all teams want to compete for a school that gives them full support. School spirit has the power to affect a team’s performance, and that is a benefit almost everyone can

It was dark outside. Clouds loomed over the skies as I walked into the enormous colorful building. Blazing rays of LED lights shone through the entrance’s translucent windows. Brightness and gleams engulfed my vision like a wildfire. My eyes blink, trying to focus where I was walking. As I paced myself through the crowded corridors of the large hallway trying to find my group of friends, I could see murals of sea animals everywhere and signs directing where each exhibit was. Animated and overjoyed, I pranced to the first exhibit where the baby sand sharks were. They were extraordinary, swimming around their tank but sadly not able to leave their confined space. Their tank only allowed them to swim continuously in circles. Although animals in captivity tend to live longer than animals in the wild, it is depressing to mull over how they were stripped of their freedom. There was nowhere to escape when housed in such small enclosures.

With a body like a torpedo and a mouth like a black hole, it’s nearly impossible to not think about this miraculous predator as you float on the surface of the great blue sea. Even though the great white is virtually the perfect predator, an attack on a human is unlikely and for the attack to be fatal is even more unlikely. Being at the top of the food chain the shark has few threats. Orcas and larger sharks are their only fear. Ironically, human interaction poses the biggest threat to the sharks. They are caught and their fins and jaws are sold.
