Richard A. Muller’s “Nuclear Waste” addresses the problem of the storing of nuclear waste in the Yucca Mountain that costs billions of dollars that future presidents will have to deal with. He explains that the government will not be able to keep it underground for 10,000 years as the future is constantly changing, and that there could be a possible leakage due to the earthquakes that happen around the mountain (Muller 207). In “They say/I say” by Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein, they put together the important moves in writing that is most effective towards the reader. While reading "Nuclear Waste," it's easily seen that Muller uses some of these moves that are talked about in the "They say/I say" book that produces an effective article.
Through the use of anaphora, metaphor, and informative figurative language, Barry portrays the work of a scientist as challenging and complex. Barry begins by using patterns of repetition and anaphora in the first paragraph. He does this to strengthen the traditional recognition that certainty is good and uncertainty is bad. Providing these antithetical concepts of uncertainty v. certainty, or good v. bad, also strengthen his claim that the work of a scientist is challenging and complex. Next, Barry complicates our understanding of the nature of scientific research through the use of metaphor throughout the essay.
6/24, Chapter One: As the book begins, the readers are introduced to Scout, and her knowledge of Maycomb. I noticed how Scout’s narration sounded; she is telling the story as an adult but from a five year old’s point of view during the book, but her narrative included complex words such as “imprudent” (5) and “domiciled” (10), which is unlike what a child would say. Harper Lee uses the unique narration so that Scout would be able to provide background and context to Maycomb, but also so that readers would be able to see how Scout reacted and felt about the events in the book, and how it impacted her life growing up. Scout also used description and imagery as she told the story, which I found intriguing, since children don’t usually care for description and see things simplistically.
Chapter 11 is about friendship. There are many different things that go into friendship such as, the nature of friendship, how friendships are developed, specific rules for the friendship, and also the pressures on the friendship. But for this particular incident I will focus on the pressures placed on the friendship. This pressure can from an internal or external place. The internal tensions of a friendship breaks down into three different parts.
In the first chapter of They Say, I Say: Moves That Matter in Academic Writing, by Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein, the authors explain that to make the writer’s thesis more understandable, it is necessary for a writer to provide views about their point. The authors state that in order “to keep an audience engaged, a writer needs to explain what he or she is responding to… early in the discussion” (20). Graff and Birkenstein provide templates to introduce other views in ways such as as: opening with an anecdote, presenting views as the writer’s own, and opening with a debate. The authors end the chapter by explaining “return sentences”, which can be used to maintain a text’s purpose and remind readers of the ideas that are being responded to.
The rhetorical devices imbue the text with power by describing the intricate parts of the scientific method and how it affects scientists greatly. These rhetorical devices also make the text beautiful and easier to connect with by including imagery of the unknown wilderness and nature, which relates with scientists and their studies. Being a scientists and delving into scientific research is a difficult task and it requires not only scientists, but also the every day person to be the torch bearers of discovery as
Barry’s use of syntax to effectively state his argument, his use of diction to allow the reader to comprehend the meaning of a phrase, and the allegories to add further emphasis to his main points all are important rhetorical strategies. These strategies don’t just emphasize the important of certainty and how it can benefit the field of science, but they also describe how uncertainty can also impact discoveries and how it can prohibit discoveries from being
Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird and Elie Wiesel’s memoir Night capture two vastly different scenarios that capture accounts of racism and the Holocaust through the eyes of children. To Kill a Mockingbird tracks a young girl, Scout Finch, who lives in the segregated town, Maycomb, Alabama. Scout’s upbringing takes place in a time when racial pressures are at their peak, and her father, Atticus’s defense of an accused black man, Tom Robinson, highlights the discrimination and prejudice that both Atticus and Tom confront. Instead, Night reveals the story of a young Jewish teenager whose life flips when the Nazis send him and his family to Auschwitz, where they discover the atrocities of the Holocaust.
Lost Innocence, Violent History Significant historical events can shape how children view the world, as displayed in the realistic fiction novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee and in Elie Wiesel's memoir Night. To Kill a Mockingbird contains experiences with racism and classism in the southern town of Maycomb, Alabama. This novel is centered around the trial of Tom Robinson, an innocent Black man accused of raping Mayella Ewell, a young white woman, alongside the narrator, Scout Finch, and her brother, Jem Finch, and his experiences with racism. Night is a memoir with the first person point of view of Elie Wiesel's personal experiences with the Holocaust, which was the organized genocide of over six million Jews during World War II. In
2,700 to 3,300 words maximum 1.1 Introduction s18 of the Australian Consumer Law (“ACL”), which forms schedule 2 of the Australian Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) analogously with s52 of the Trade Practices Act 1974 (Cth) (“TPA”) provides that the liability of misleading or deceptive conduct is expressed in general laws. Karl Llewellyn outlined that this provision should be read ‘in the light of some assumed purpose’ , and this essay will examine the importance and scope of s18, as well as the relevance of the legal ruling in relation to misleading and deceptive conduct in trade and commerce. The appeal case of Google Inc v Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (“Google v ACCC”) examined whether publishing or displaying
Education For Everyone Education is important with would it people wouldn't be able to have some of the jobs there are to day however not all people in the United States are give the same opportunity to pursue a higher education. In the book Killers of The Flower Moon education is one of the reasons the Osage people aren’t allowed full access of their own money. Many white people in power at the time believed that the Osage are intiletickly inferior. They believed that the Osage would waste the money that the Osage received from the oil companies. Even though some of the Osage were forced to go to school this level of education was not the same.
Introduction: “Perspective gives us the ability to accurately contrast the large with the small, and the important with the less important. Without it we are lost in a world where all ideas, news, and information look the same. We cannot differentiate, we cannot prioritize, and we cannot make good choices…” This is a quote recited by John Sununu. In books, we must be able to compare and contrast the difference between one sequence from the other; from one context to the next.
The Prison Door In this Chapter from The Scarlet Letter, Hawthorne introduces the setting of the book in Boston. He uses a gloomy and depressed tone in the beginning of the chapter. He is able to convey this tone using imagery while describing the citizens, the prison, and the cemetery. However, as he continues to discuss the rose-bush, he uses parallelism to shift the tone to be brighter and joyful. To create a gloomy and depressed tone, Hawthorne uses imagery.
Dialogue in To Kill a Mockingbird By Harper Lee The book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, is told through the perspective of a little girl named Jean Louise Finch, nicknamed Scout. The setting is in Maycomb, Alabama, in the early 1900’s. Harper Lee uses the author 's craft of dialogue to achieve three3 goals. The three goals she is trying to achieve are to teach empathy, promote a theme and to get the readers to predict what will happen next in the novel.
The reason for this difference is because the natural sciences are based heavily on sense perception which is a generally imperfect way of knowing. Sense perception, as a way of knowing, is heavily influenced by many other ways of knowing including faith, emotion, intuition, reason, and language. Any variation in these five ways of knowing can influence sense perception and create a completely different knowledge claim. This can include confirmation bias as well, especially in biology. If a scientist is stressed by upcoming journal pressures and has a hypothesis that they strongly believe in, and sees anything remotely similar to the results they expect, then their interpretation of sense perception may be very different from a scientist with no emotional connection.
