The United States, as many believe, is the land of opportunity, however, when looking at individual states, towns, and cities, this popular slogan may seem false to some. Within each state, all schools, such as middle and high schools, may not receive or offer equity. In an effort to revel inequalities within school systems, I will discuss the differences between schools in my town, the apparent lack of public concern about schooling inequality, and what changes could be made in an effort to reduce schooling inequality.

The past two semesters were great experiences. Within this past school year my knowledge as a reader and writer has improved. It felt like it was just yesterday, when I had a lot of difficulty writing and poor reading strategies. Now, as I said before, I am an improved writer and reader. The assignments and class activities over the two semesters were great benefits to me, and helped me make progress towards the first year learning goals.

According to Marc Goodman, a global strategist, author and consultant, and Vijay Kumar, Nemirovsky Family Dean of Penn Engineering, today’s technologies have a huge influence on our world, which, in turn, becomes very open, and that has implications both bright and dangerous. Nowadays, technologies are developing so fast and it makes our world easier and more comfortable, on one side, but dangerous and threatful, on the other side.

The first speaker is Steve Jobs and my moment relates to the portion his speech when he says “sometimes life hits you with a brick. Don’t lose faith… don’t settle.” This quote directly relates to the tragic moment in my life when I found out that I was waitlisted from the University of Michigan Engineering school. That entire day after I found out just went downhill and to top it off, I had a track invitational later that day in Ann Arbor, at the University of Michigan. I probably took this event more seriously than most people because I worked so hard in high school with the goal of going to UMich but in the end it didn’t work out and I felt as though the last four years of my life have been wasted. After taking a few days to digest the news, I decided to move on with my life instead of dwelling on my failures. I committed to Michigan State University and I know for a fact I’ll do really well there and I won’t settle for subpar academic performances.

Donald Trump and Franklin Delano Roosevelt both use anaphora, imagery, and antithesis to provide a better understanding and clarity for the audience. Donald Trump uses anaphora to connect with the audience. He frequently says, “We will…” which implies that he will not abandon the citizens while he is the president of the United States. Trump uses anaphora in this example to make the audience feel like he is on the same level as the common person rather than superior to them. Trump uses anaphora to comfort the audience. Franklin Roosevelt also uses anaphora to connect with and assure his audience that he will do what is best for the country. He says, “It can be helped by…” several times toward the end of his speech. He repeatedly says

Today we graduate from WRIT1000! Whilst we may have entered New Law Learning Studio unaware of the significance of ethos, pathos and logos, we leave with a newfound appreciation of the rhetorical situation.

What was the Structure for this speech? In this speech he told his journey of his life in order of events. There are three main organizational pattern speeches: Topical Division, Chronological Division, and Spatial Division.Topical Division is a common one used its seems to be easier to write for your speech. Topical Division is when you create categories related to your topic (Public speaking and presentations, 49).Chronological Division is organize information in a time sequence (Public speaking and presentations, 48). Spatial Division is describe things according to their physical positioning (Public speaking and presentations, 49). This speech Steve jobs presented give more of a topical pattern standpoint. My reason for stating this is

This article was published in Fortune Magazine, and seems to be aimed at a mostly general audience. It uses separate styles and tones to engage the reader. The article assumes a basic knowledge of some technology, but keeps its concepts at a level that most people can grasp.

I am writing to apply for the Max Planck Society pre-doctoral fellowship runs from 1 March 2018 to 30 June 2018. As a PhD candidate at the Department of History, University of Minnesota, I study the connections between the history of the senses, the circulation of commodities, and social class formation in early modern China. I am now working on my dissertation entitled “More than just a Drink: Tea Consumption, Bodily Experiences and Material Culture in Early Modern China (1550-1700),” which explores the role of scholar-official tea connoisseurs in reshaping tea production and consumption in China from the mid-sixteenth century to the early eighteenth century, during which a new trend of consuming loose tea, which has dominated China’s tea

Thompson, in the section on Hebrews 2:5-18 of his commentary, introduces and explains the idea of the Son as a pioneer (p.62) that the author of The Letter to the Hebrews uses in Hebrews 2:10. The concept of Christ as a pioneer remains rare in the New Testament, only found in Acts and Hebrews, and not a concept I ever gave much thought to or even understood. However, Thompson explains that Jesus as pioneer “opens the way for others to follow” (p.63). Jesus suffered and came into glory first in order that those who followed him in his suffering could also share in his glory. The author uses this concept to encourage the audience that “the pioneer survived the test of suffering and is now able to ‘help those who are tested’” (p.69). Additionally,

“The Squint and the Wail” is an essay by Michael Hsu. Hsu, a Taiwanese American author and editor, wrote this essay in order to express his views on the negative connotations that occur with some of the racially charged objects present in society. More specifically, the essay deals with the stereotypical nature of The Chin Family. The Chin Family is the name of Stefano Giovannoni’s tabletop collection, which includes salt and pepper shakers that have the caricaturized facial expressions of Chinese people (Giovanni, 404). In this essay, Hsu talks about the appalling nature of the stereotypical features and how those features pose a derogatory inference to Chinese culture, but then

When we began brainstorming for the introduction and conclusion we thought we had a good handle on what we wanted to say and what we were supposed to say. We watched the video once more, we used the handouts and worksheets we filled out during the week in order to find the claim we collectively wanted to make. However, when we received feedback, we realized we weren’t building an argument or analyzing Taylor Swift’s argument, but we had just summarized her video and song. We were all confused on exactly we were supposed to say then and we all also were terrified to say the wrong thing in our essay because we all had not done well on previous writing assignments in the class. Each of us are very methodical and tend to stay in our heads rather

The enslavement of Africans in America began in 1619 and lasted nearly 250 years; slaves worked in harsh conditions and were treated poorly by their owners. Mostly popular in the south, slavery was a pressing issue in the United States and created many conflicts within the young nation. Those in the south that defended slavery have argued that the blacks were better off here enslaved, than they were in Africa, when they had their freedom. Other points that were made were that the blacks were an ‘economic necessity’, or that they were a ‘subhuman’ race. No matter what the argument was, slavery was still wrong, and others in the United States realized that; those who wanted to intermit slavery were known as Abolitionists. Abolitionists had many different methods of retaliating slavery, they incorporated rhetorical questions, and religious language in their speeches, poems, and other forms of writing to combat slavery.

This week I attended a lecture by Dr. Jean-Bertrand Ribat. He is a political scientist who has a BA from Columbia University, a MA from Montana State University, and a PH.D from Indiana State, Bloomsburg and has participated in many research projects from all around the world, including France, Turkey, and etc. With the knowledge he has about the world, he starts talking about the history of China. From what he views, he states China at the beginning of the 19th and or 20th century was relatively weak when compared to other more modern states like the U.S. and of other Western European state. However, when compared to today, China is viewed as a superpower with almost equal strength to the U.S.. A fear that he sees coming is the passing of
