Generating Cumulative Sentences Passive And Active Sentences Sentence
612 words
Lindemann covers many good points in these two
chapters. I would like to focus on combining and
generating cumulative sentences, passive and
active sentences, and style. These chapters are
mainly an in depth look at teaching sentences and
words, and there is a lot of great methods of
doing so. With combining sentences we learn to
cut, rearrange and paste elements from each other
in order to make one good sentence. One example
Lindemann used was changing the canary flew out

1,013 words
Meursault, the main character and narrator of The
Outsider, is perceived to be a life-loving and
self-centred man, who lives his existential life
in Algiers. This novel, by Albert Camus, suggests
that nothing seems to matter to Meursault. His
nothing-seems-to-matter attitude is manifested
through his indifference nature, which can
constantly be observed in the novel. Meursault's
attitude towards death supports the fact that he
is relatively indifferent. Meursault's refusal to
think of the future...

Active And Passive Passive Euthanasia
1,136 words
Many people in North America die what may be
called a bad death, a death in which a person
endures unnecessary pain to live a few extra days.
More often than not patients die in pain, their
desires concerning treatment ignored, after having
spent ten or more days in the intensive care unit.
Why should these patients be forced to live in
pain? Why should they not be given the option to
die? This option is called euthanasia, which in
Greek means good death. People should not be
obligated to live i...

... aptness to which their moral worth entitles
them (Sullivan, 220). The capacity to exercise our
rationality and reason morally is what makes human
existence meaningful. Individuals suffering from
unbearable pain are still persons in the moral
sense because they have the capacity to
distinguish right from wrong, but in every other
respect, they are deprived of the things that make
their life desirable. They no longer have the
ability to use their rationality and grow as
individuals; instead, t...

Television Stations News Corp

The weekly periodical TV Guide needs to both
create and market two new products, TV Guide On
Screen, and TV Guide Online. These two new forms
of the periodical should be worked on and made
available to the consumer as soon as possible, as
there are several companies working to undermine
TV Guides dominance in the industry and are
threatening to beat them to the new and
informative mediums. Perhaps the most logical way
to have the new products gain recognition is to

Search For Meaning Lack Of Control

I do not agree with Frankl. I do not believe Mans
primary driving force is a search for meaning. Nor
do I concede with his critics that propose
alternative motivations, such as power, or
pleasure. I believe that man has the capacity to
be driven by many motivational factors, not just
any single one. Moreover, I believe that these
motivations represent themselves in a predictable,
patterned way. In three of the books we read this
summer, it is possible to trace the evolution of
the protagonists m...
