Why Does A Fourteen-Year-Old Manage To Save The World?

Unwind, a very well written science fiction book by Neal Shusterman. There are a few arguments arguing whether Connor, a male character in Unwind, is a hero or not. According to my opinion on this argument, I would say that Connor is a hero and is not a hero, but goes more towards being a hero. Connor Lassiter is a 16-year-old male in Unwind. He was very aghast when he saw a letter signed by his parents as to Unwinding him. Unwinding is the transplanting of a teen’s body parts to another person who is in need of those parts. In the following three paragraphs, I will tell you what specifically is a hero, why Connor is a hero, and why Connor isn’t a hero.

Do you think being a teen activist is easy? Teen activists help the world in many ways, but it isn’t easy to fight for their cause. Teen activists persevere through any challenges they get. They are brave, and have to be good speakers to get other people’s attention. They often found organizations or teams to help them on their mission. So being a teen activist isn’t that easy. But how to fight for your cause is the hardest part. You have to find a way to get help for your cause. Teen activists use many ways to fight for their cause.

“I want to be Batman.” That is a typical response from a preschooler if they are asked what they want to be when they grow up. However, heroes are not always wearing capes. They can simply be an Indian man that changed his mindset into something more inspirational. There is one thing that Superman and a policeman have in common. They are both heroes. No matter how different the fields are, they are brave, helpful, and hardworking. A hero can be someone known for courageous achievements. They are normally men, but can be women too. Heroes come in many different ways. Some characteristics of a hero are someone who has enormous courage, strength, and knowledge. They usually have a big effect on people’s life and are pretty well known. A hero is also known for helping people and not doing it out of revenge. They must have a good heart because they are putting themselves at risk for others. The people need to have trust in him because he is putting their life on the line, so they cannot be evil. A true hero isn’t perfect. They have disagreements and bad days, but the motivation to get back up and help day after day is definitely a true hero. Being a hero is tiring, because being a hero is not a one-time thing, so one cannot just do something good for a day and call themself heroes. Being a hero means loving what you do. It means getting up in the morning, ready to help people in any way possible, everyday. Mohandas Gandhi is a hero because he was helpful, had leadership and

Every year as a tradition my family gets together to go on a vacation to Orlando, Florida during the summer. Though it may be the same location every year, we create new experiences with each visit. As a tradition we go on a ten hour road trip to city of Disney World. During the ride we listen to the playlist my dad made for the car ride.Rick Astley plays in the background as we sing along to the classic road trip tunes. Til this day whenever “Never Gonna Give You Up” comes on I immediately reminisce the car rides to Orlando. Upon arriving we explore the amusement parks Orlando has to offer. Every heart jittering ride, particularly ‘The Hulk’ at Universal Studios, is worth the wait just to complete an experience of a lifetime. Each summer I

Growing up with money Amber Pollock had an ordinary childhood and was able to have everything that she wanted and make people follow her, since she was the most popular girl in school. Amber wanted everything especially the name “Prom Queen,” so her and her minions rigged the voting. Because of her reckless path she ended up being electrocuted by the crown and dying. She is sent to Limbo where she meets her mentor, Supervisor J-3, who gives her the call to adventure. The call to adventure is straight forward allowing the viewer anticipate and guess what is to unravel. Amber must now help the most hopeless girl, Lisa Sommers, from her high school to become prom royalty by the next week for their makeup Prom. If she completes this she can move out of Limbo and be accepted into Heaven. If she fails, she will be sent on the next bus to Hell. These are very drastic rewards or punishments for the journey but they help to get the idea across.

Stereotypical parents are known to be overprotective towards their younglings. All parents are concerned about their teens, yet some parents tend to go overboard. Parents need to learn when to monitor and when it is too much. In the article “The Undercover Parent” (2008), Harlan Coben proposes that parents should use spyware to supervise their teens. Coben argues that parents should supervise their teens because adolescents are secretive when it comes to having their own privacy, which makes parents oblivious toward their actions. However, at the same time parents should consider to keep their teens aware of their surveilling. Ellen Goodman’s article “Big Brother Meets Big Mother” (2007) on the other hand, criticizes that parents who monitor

A spy is a person who secretly collects information on the activities, movements, and plans of an enemy of the law. Sanger Rainsford, the Protagonist in The Most Dangerous Game, could be a perfect candidate for the role of a spy. Spying requires that you have or develop a number of practical and risk-averse characteristics. Rainsford shows the strong physical ability, the mental thought process, emotional traits, keen observation and social skills that a person would have to require to fill the role of a spy.

Do you know what teen activists are? Teen activists are people who stand up for what they believe in. Just like Malala Yousafzai, Faye Carey, and Emily Rigel. Every single one of these people will have obstacles in their way but they never give up for what they think should be right in the world that makes them very brave. If you want to be a teen activist you have to accomplish all of those things.

I believe the greasers are hero’s because Ponyboy is brave, he would do anything he can to help the ones he loves and had no fear by running into the burning church and saving those kids lives [ chapter 6 page 91 ]

Nathan Hale, the first american spy to volunteer to go over enemy lines and gather much needed information for the Americans. Another spy was James Armistead, he was a black slave who went to the British side and pretend to be a runaway slave loyal to the king. Lieutenant Lewis Costigan was another one of our valuable spies.

“Coben the author of the Undercover parent found out that his friends are using spyware on their 15 year olds computer so they can monitor what he does online.( Coben 1).” I believe that they should monitor their kids not spy.Coben was shocked that his friends did this, but then he soon realized why it was a good idea.

He is the only 12 years old an he has been through more than he should. That does not stop him from doing the right thing in a dangerous situation. Have you tried to stop a moving bus, ¨come on man, it aint gonna happen again, not for a while at least.¨Said Stacy

Ben Woodwork, a 35-year-old man, he had worked for the FBI for 8 years. He was trusted by the head of FBI. He had been given a special task to do, which is to spy on terrorist groups. Most of the spies don’t end up alive when they return back to their home country, but Ben was still strongly hoping that he could take that job. However, they have given him the job after the training process and the testing process that he just finished (to see if he got to the level to be a spy). Apparently, he did get through the test. His first mission given was

My dear child, I have a very important mission for you. You are going to be super hero who will save the world. Our planet is on the edge right now, soon we will be faced with very serious crisis. Energy crisis. We use energy every day and it’s very hard to imagine our world with out of electricity. Can you imagine, that one-day electricity may become as expensive as gold and we won’t be able to use it on regular basis, like we do now. And this day might be coming soon. So let’s imagine that we are on a freeway. Just a few miles over the horizon lies the ultimate exhaustion of our planet’s fossil fuel supply. However, before we reach that otherwise inevitable destination, there are several exits at which we can turn off to evade the unquestionably chaotic and potentially economically ruinous position of losing the energy source upon which we primarily rely. According to the Institute of Mechanical Engineers of MIT, there are 1.3 trillion barrels of proven oil reserve left in the world 's major fields, which at present rates of consumption should last 40 years. Same time the organization also emphasizes that by 2040, production levels may be down to 15 million barrels per day – just 20% of what we currently consume. By that time, it is probable that the world 's population will be double what it is today and much more industrialized, and therefore oil dependent (3).Do you understand how scary it is?!
