The article “The Case for Fitting In” compares to my idea of conformity because I think that it means how you change your opinion due to social pressure. My idea of conformity relates to the article because it was talking about how when people were in a group and someone said the wrong answer they usually went with it. “Each subject saw 18 sets of lines, and the group answer was wrong for 12 of them” this proves that most of the time people went with the group rather than going with their personal opinion. I think that the article really compares with my definition of conformity because I think that it causes you to change your opinion and sometimes causes you to choose wrong answers. I also strongly think that the article agrees with me because

To me this was very encouraging as he didn’t let the fact he could not understand words in the books he didn’t comprehend knock him down. He did the opposite and used it to push him to further his education.

The news article I have chosen to analyze is an article in The Telegraph called “Father kills sons friend in revenge for drug death”. In this news article, it tells the story of how a loving father, Roy Allison Sr., killed Duncan Bell, a friend of Roy Allison Jr, because of a suspicion that he supplied his son with drugs that lead to his death. It was Roy Jr’s birthday and close friend, Duncan Bell had drunkenly given him “ecstasy-like” drugs, which then led to his death. The father had so much overwhelming hate and anger towards Bell that he had stabbed him to death. This is a very extreme case of revenge because of the rash actions that Roy Allison had taken. I could certainly understand the anger at Bell that Roy had, because he had loved

The authors of the article explained how important it is to meet the needs of the students with limited English ability in the education system. One of the main point expresses about how frustrating it could be for these students, especially if they were never expose to this sort of environment or language before. Another point that was made in the article, explains how the educational system was not prepared for changes in this sort of population. In most cases, some of the curriculum that is being offered in school cannot be changed to accommodate English Limited Learners, also known as ELLs. Budget is also another issue, as schools are limited to hiring more ELL teachers.

People around the world consume numerous goods every day. There are several things that determine what quantities and how frequently they are consumed and those influences can either work in tandem or act individually to influence a person. It is these foundations that set an average for what consumers will purchase and the volume of goods to be created by agriculturalists and industrialists. This is known as economic consumption patterns, and these patterns are carefully studied by economists. With the data that they glean from this assessment economists can then use that information to provide the economy with data

“I say to you quite frankly that the time for racial discrimination is over,” is what Governor Jimmy Carter said during his Inaugural Address on January 12, 1971, but it was not always true. In the texts, “Superman and Me,” by Sherman Alexie, and, “Learning to Read and Write,” by Frederick Douglass there are clear problems of racial discrimination between both authors. There are many other similarities and differences throughout Frederick and Sherman’s demanding upbringing, the most prominent are the main character’s obstacles, goals, and the claims that the author makes in the book.

Cuebed wrote an article on July 21, 2017 about how free parking and parking minimums make living on big cities much more expensive. The article showed how it is a waste of space to have so much parking and there are more effective and faster ways to move around without a car. The article also showed an example of this with mexico city and how they cut down on parking spaces.

The captions “Cormac McCarthy’s Ex-Wife Pulls Gun From Her Vagina, Threatens to Shoot Boyfriend”, and “Novelist's Ex In Bizarre Handgun Threat Arrest” are used to incite interest among readers regardless of the factuality of the above statements. To distinguish truth past what is provided requires an individual to delve deeper into the topic of conversation rather than absorb such at face value.

The United States consumes more than 25% of the world’s petroleum products which is a large percentage, considering only 3% of the world’s oil reserves are produced by the United States. Given the demand for petroleum products such as gasoline, understanding why Crude oil prices have skyrocketed in recent years, is not hard. According to the article “Ending America’s Oil Addiction,” the surge in crude oil prices can be reduced in large part to the simple concepts of supply and demand. (Cooper, 2008)

The first thing that stood out in the article, Where We Are Going, is the approach King takes to reflect the United States poverty dilemma. By referring to all races as a whole, instead of pieces of a problem, anyone who reads this is able to relate. Growing up, I myself was part of the lower middle class; I never understood why I never had as much as the other kids did. This caused having a mindset I could not follow in my family’s path because that is what I grew to blame. However, it has not been easy. A constant cycle of school, work, and life demands; I know by doing one small thing wrong could cause all I’ve worked hard for to slip through my fingers. I would not know where to go from there, so I believe those

The writer’s purpose in writing the article is to express her opinion on the banning of the hijab, which is worn by Muslim women. She is not in favor of the ban. She felt that it was discriminating against women not because of religious reasons. Many of the sports teams have banned women from wearing the hijab while playing sports. Their reason was that it cause safety issues. In my opinion, I agree with the writer.

I loved the Scavenger Hunt. It was very interesting and useful for making us familiar with the course. It was clear and gave us a general idea of what are the requirements that must be done. The newest thing that I know is sending an email via D2L.

I came across a news article called “For Millions, Unemployment is a New Normal”. This news article is part of the “Chasing the Dream” series that reports on poverty and opportunity in America. The news article is set up like an interview. As you read through it Christopher Booker asks Americans questions on their employment situations. A lot of the questions that are asked in the article relate to the chapter. The chapter talks about the uncertainty of employment and the stress that comes with that. In the news article one of the questions he asked about was stability in jobs, and unfortunately the answer to that question is that there isn’t stability for many Americans. He also asked how that impacts a working family, and the answer was that

Research is conducted in order to increase scientific knowledge. The research results are summarized and presented in scientific journals and can then be used for the introduction of new therapies or new health programs. Reading and studying of modern literature and published articles is necessary for the scientist. Journal articles are modern and include updated scientific knowledge, whereas the books because of the lengthy authoring and publication process contain information very shortly overcome.
