The Imperial Examinations System mainly focused on testing politically critical problems. The qualities of the answers were the main criterion for
Secondly, the Principle of Nationalism shapes Chinese’s national awareness instead of subjectives of kings and members of a patriarchal clan. “In the ‘old’ empires and kingdoms, each subject relates to the sovereign (king). In nation-states, each subject relates to the other ‘horizontally”(Bram). Although Sun was not the first person who proposed the nationalism in China, his virtuous propaganda made national awareness be entrenched in Chinese people’s minds.

The Chinese Room Argument was a thought experiment presented by an American philosopher by the name of John Searle. The Chinese room argument is a concept that refutes the idea of a strong artificial intelligence also known as Strong Al. Strong Ai is “the view that an appropriately programmed digital computer capable of passing the Turing test would thereby have mental states and a mind in the same sense in which human beings have mental states and a mind” (Searle, 2005). However the opposing view

Unfortunately what many students are not told is that their intelligence is not defined by the marks they receive, but rather intelligence is defined by so much more than a letter on a report card. Albert Einstein once said, “Everyone is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole
History is defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary as “a chronological record of significant events; events of the past” (Merriam-Webster). That’s generally what people think of when they hear the word “history”, but not everyone was/is satisfied with that term for the definition. Hannah Arendt, the writer of “The Concept of History”, stated that “These single instances, deeds or events, interrupt the circular movement of daily life…The subject matter of history is these interruptions – the extraordinary”
“Even though you’re growing up, you should never stop having fun” - Nina Dobrev. Growing up is about learning new things, but not forgetting what was fun in the past.

Imagine if the school board decided to extend school hours, it would only make it difficult for students to so do. School hours should not be extended because it limits a student’s personal time, puts more stress on them, and reduces time for extracurricular activities. It limits their time for personal work, such as chores, family time, and time spent with friends. If the
Should We Pay for Grades? Proven in a recent study in New York, about 6,000 students that were paid for grades in elementary school did the same or even worse in middle school when they were stopped being paid. Schools make important decisions when deciding whether or not they should pay students for grades. Paying them for grades causes lots of different effects, and not just good ones.
