Halloween by user109771

I hate living by the hospital
The sirens go all night
I used to joke that if they woke you up
Somebody better be dying
Sick of the questions I keep asking you
They make you live in the past
But I can count on you to tell me the truth
When you've been drinking and you're wearing a mask
Baby, it's Halloween
And we can be anything
Oh, come on, man
We can be anything
Always surprised by what I do for love
Some things I never expect
They killed a fan down by the stadium
Was only visiting, they beat him to death
Baby, it's Halloween
And we can be anything
Oh, come on, man
We can be anything
Baby, it's Halloween
There's a last time for everything
Oh, come on, man
We can be anything
Whatever you want
I'll be whatever you want
Whatever you want
Be whatever you want
I'll be whatever you want
Whatever you want
I'll be whatever you want
Whatever you want
Whatever you want

Quotes Probook 6 by user110049

In matters of principal, stand like a rock; in matters of taste, swim with the current. Give up money, give up fame, give up science, give up earth itself and all it contains, rather than do an immoral act. And never suppose that in any situation, or under any circumstances, it is best for you to do a dishonorable thing. Whenever you are to do a thing, though it can never be known but to yourself, ask yourself how you would act were all the world looking at you, and act accordingly.

Duty, honor, country: Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying point to build courage when courage seems to fail, to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith, to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.

Article 5 of the Code of Conduct: When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am required to give name, rank, Service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the upmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies or harmful to their cause.

Article 6 of the Code of Conduct: I will never forget that I am an American, fighting for freedom, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

I read part of an article called, "Say What, Horse." It was originally published in the magazine "Muse" in 2017. The article shares about three studies done related to the ways horses are able to communicate. In the article, author Jessie Haas says, "...Horses have been watching us, reading our moods, and communicating in ways we usually fail to understand, but science is finally catching on to that and is taking a fresh look..." New research revealed in the article shows that horses are able to read human facial expressions, use their own expressions to try to "talk back" to us, and learn to communicate with symbols.

"Union is strength" means unity is the biggest power that can defeat or face any kind of situation or problem existed in this world. We all have heard a lot of stories about strength of union in our childhood, one of them was about a farmer who had four sons but they always fought against each other. Some day their father gave a stick to them and ordered to break it, every one quickly broken it then father asked them to collect all the sticks and bind it with rope. Again he asked all his sons to break it. Everyone tried but couldn't succeed. Then, their father made them realized the power of unity.

Rhetorical Analysis by user454527

1. Understanding Rhetorical Appeals: Ethos, Pathos, and Logos
When analyzing a speech, it's essential to recognize the rhetorical appeals that the speaker uses to persuade their audience. These appeals are categorized into three primary types: ethos, pathos, and logos. Ethos refers to the credibility of the speaker. An effective speaker establishes trust by demonstrating knowledge and character. Consider how the speaker’s background, expertise, and ethical stance contribute to their authority on the subject. Pathos involves appealing to the audience's emotions. A speaker might use vivid imagery, personal anecdotes, or emotional language to evoke feelings like sympathy, anger, or joy. Finally, logos represents logical reasoning, where the speaker employs facts, statistics, and logical arguments to persuade the audience intellectually. When writing your analysis, identify examples of these appeals in the speech and discuss their effectiveness. How do these strategies impact the audience’s response? This understanding will lay the groundwork for a deeper exploration of how speakers craft their messages for various purposes.

2. Analyzing Diction and Word Choice. Diction, or word choice, plays a crucial role in the effectiveness of a speech. The specific words a speaker selects can convey tone, evoke emotion, and enhance the overall message. When analyzing diction, consider the connotations of the words used. For example, a speaker might choose strong, vivid language to instill a sense of urgency or fear, or opt for softer, more gentle words to create a calming effect. Pay attention to the formality or informality of the language; formal diction can lend credibility and seriousness, while informal diction may make the speaker seem relatable and approachable. Additionally, analyze the use of figurative language such as metaphors, similes, and alliteration. These literary devices can enrich the speech and help illustrate complex ideas more vividly. In your analysis, provide specific examples of diction from the speech, explain how those choices contribute to the overall message, and discuss the intended impact on the audience. Understanding diction will empower you to appreciate the subtleties of a speaker's craft.

3. Examining Tone and Mood
The tone of a speech refers to the speaker’s attitude toward the subject or audience, which can significantly influence how the message is received. Tone can be identified through the speaker's choice of words, the rhythm of their speech, and their emotional delivery. When analyzing tone, consider adjectives such as serious, humorous, passionate, or somber to describe the speaker's approach. Look for shifts in tone throughout the speech; these changes can signal the speaker's emotional journey or emphasize critical points. Additionally, consider the mood created for the audience. Mood refers to the overall feeling that the speech evokes in listeners, which can be a result of tone, diction, and emotional appeals. For instance, a passionate tone may create an inspiring mood, motivating the audience to take action. In your analysis, reflect on how tone and mood work together to enhance the speech’s effectiveness. Discuss the impact on the audience and how the speaker’s emotional delivery can sway opinions or inspire change.

4. Analyzing Audience and Purpose
Understanding the audience and the purpose of a speech is fundamental to a thorough analysis. A speaker must tailor their message to resonate with the specific audience they are addressing. Consider who the intended audience is—are they young students, seasoned professionals, or a general public? The choice of language, examples, and rhetorical strategies will vary based on the audience's interests, values, and expectations. Additionally, analyze the purpose behind the speech. Is it to inform, persuade, entertain, or inspire? Each purpose requires different techniques to engage the audience effectively. For example, a persuasive speech may use strong emotional appeals and logical arguments, while an informative speech may focus more on clarity and factual accuracy. In your analysis, explore how the speaker adapts their message for their audience and purpose. Identify specific strategies used to connect with listeners and discuss the effectiveness of these techniques in achieving the speaker's goals. This understanding will deepen your appreciation for the art of rhetoric.

5. Crafting Your Analysis
When writing your literary analysis, aim for clarity and coherence. Begin with an engaging introduction that provides context for the speech, including the speaker, occasion, and main themes. Clearly state your thesis, outlining the key aspects you will analyze, such as rhetorical appeals, diction, tone, and audience. Use well-organized body paragraphs to delve into each aspect, providing specific examples and quotes from the speech to support your points. Transition smoothly between ideas to maintain a logical flow throughout your analysis. Conclude by summarizing your key findings and reflecting on the speech's overall impact. Consider how the rhetorical strategies employed contribute to the effectiveness of the message and its relevance to contemporary issues. By structuring your analysis thoughtfully, you will demonstrate your understanding of the speech and the skills necessary for success in Language Arts, 10 grade.

LAW_22__11 by user654824

Before going to Washington, the Hollywood 19 met to decide on a plan of action. Their approach would be confrontational. Instead of answering questions about their membership, or lack of it, in the Communist Party, they would read prepared statements that would challenge the authority of the committee and argue that its activities were unconstitutional. Even if this strategy meant imprisonment, it would gain publicity for their cause.

LAW_22__10 by user654824

Over the next few years Brecht wrote screenplays with a pointedly anticapitalist slant. He had little success in Hollywood, so in 1947, the war having ended, he decided to return to Europe. That same year, however, the U.S. Congress's House Un-American Activities Committee began its investigation into supposed Communist infiltration in Hollywood. It began to gather information on Brecht, who had so openly espoused Marxism, and on September 19, 1947, only a month before he had planned to leave the United States, he received a subpoena to appear before the committee. In addition to Brecht, a number of other writers, producers, and directors were summoned to appear as well, and this group came to be known as the Hollywood 19.

LAW_22__9 by user654824

Observance Of The Law
Sometime in the 1920s the German writer Bertolt Brecht became a convert to the cause of Communism. From then on his plays, essays; and poems reflected his revolutionary fervor, and he generally tried to make his ideological statements as clear as possible. When Hitler came to power in Germany, Brecht and his Communist colleagues became market men. He had many friends in the United States Americans who sympathized with his beliefs, as well as fellow German intellectuals who had fled Hitler. In 1941, accordingly, Brecht emigrated to the United States, and chose to settle in Los Angeles, where he hoped to make a living in the film business.

LAW_22__8 by user654824

Weak people never give way when they ought to.
Cardinal de Retz, 1613-1679

LAW_22__7 by user654824

Weakness is no sin, and can even become a strength if you learn how to play it right. Had the Melians surrendered in the first place, they would have been able to sabotage the Athenians in subtle ways, or might have gotten what they could have out of the alliance and then left it when the Athenians themselves were weakened, as in fact happened several years later. Fortunes change and the mighty are often brought down. Surrender conceals great power: Lulling the enemy into complacency, it gives you time to recoup, tie to undermine, time for revenge. Never sacrifice that time in exchange for honor in a battle that you cannot win.

LAW_22__6 by user654824

Interpretation
The Athenians were one of the most eminently practical people in history, and they made the most practical argument they could with the Melians: When you are weaker, there is nothing to be gained by fighting a useless fight. No one comes to help the weak by doing so they would only put themselves in jeopardy. The weak are alone and must submit. Fighting gives you nothing to gain but martyrdom, and in the process a lot of people who do not believe in your cause will die.

AFFC - Sansa 1 by poschti

Marillion is singing day and night. Because his cell is open, his songs can be heard throughout the castle. Although Marillion has a beautiful voice, Sansa does not like the sound of his singing. She asks Petyr if he cannot silence the singer. Littlefinger explains to Sansa that they need Marillion. With some persuasion, Marillion has confessed to the murder of Lysa.

In return for his confession, Littlefinger has spared his life and his voice. Petyr tells Sansa that she has to corroborate Marillion's confession. Sansa knows that Marillion did not murder Lysa and therefore hesitates. She has no pity for the singer as he has tried to rape her, but she is afraid that people will see through her lies.

The next day Nestor Royce and his son arrive at the Eyrie to investigate the murder of Lysa Arryn. Although she is afraid, Sansa tells the Royces that Marillion killed Lysa Arryn. Her fright and tears only make her more convincing. Then Marillion is led in.

He confesses that he killed his mistress because he could not bear the thought of seeing her married to Petyr. The Royces never liked Marillion and don’t question his confession. They agree that Marillion will be confined to the sky cells. Eventually he will fall or jump to his death.

Nestor then informs Petyr that his cousin is gathering other lords to have Petyr removed as Lord Protector of the Vale. Littlefinger already knows this and is unfazed. As a reward for his services, he presents Nestor with a grant that makes him and his descendents hereditary Lords of the Gates of the Moon. The Gates of the Moon are a secondary castle that has always been in the possession of the main Arryn line. Nestor has been appointed castellan but now acquires the castle in his own right.

According to Petyr, Lysa had already decided to give the castle to Nestor but was murdered before she could sign the order. When Nestor Royce and his son leave, Littlefinger explains to Sansa that the Royces will now be on his side. If Petyr is removed as Lord Protector, the grant for the castle will be challenged because it was signed by Petyr and not by little Robert.

That night when Sansa goes to sleep, Robert creeps into her bed as he has been doing since his mother died. He asks Sansa if she is his mother now. Sansa says yes because she knows this lie will soothe him.

A few days later the Athenians invaded Melos. The Melians fought nobly, even-without the Spartans, who did not come to their rescue. It took several attempts before the Athenians could surround and besiege their main city, but the Melians finally surrendered. The Athenians wasted no time they put to death all the men of military age that they could capture, they sold the women and children as slaves, and they repopulated the island with their own colonists. Only a handful of Melians survived.

LAW_22__4 by user654824

Finally the Melians began to talk of honor and the principle of resisting brute force. "Do not be led astray by a false sense of honor," said the Athenians. "Honor often brings men to ruin when they are faced with an obvious danger that somehow affects their pride. There is nothing disgraceful in giving way to the greatest city in Hellas when she is offering you such reasonable terms." The debate ended. The Melians discussed the issue among themselves, and decided to trust in the aid of the Spartans, the will of the gods, and the rightness of their cause. They politely declined the Athenians' offer.

LAW_22__3 by user654824

The Melians would not budge. Sparta, they insisted, would come to their defense. The Athenians countered that the Spartans were a conservative, practical people, and would not help Melos because they had nothing to gain and a lot to lose by doing so.

People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university?
Model Answer 2:
  People attend colleges or universities for a lot of different reasons. I believe that the three most common reasons are to prepare for a career, to have new experiences, and to increase their knowledge of themselves and the world around them.
  Career preparation is becoming more and more important to young people. For many, this is the primary reason to go to college. They know that the job market is competitive. At
  college, they can learn new skill for careers with a lot of opportunities. This means careers, such as information technology, that are expected to need a large workforce in the coming years.
  Also, students go to colleges and universities to have new experiences. This often means having the opportunity to meet people different from those in their hometowns. For most students, going to college is the first time they’ve been away from home by themselves. In additions, this is the first time they’ve had to make decisions on their own. Making these decisions increases their knowledge of themselves.
  Besides looking for self-knowledge, people also attend a university or college to expand their knowledge in subjects they find interesting. For many, this will be their last chance for a long time to learn about something that doesn’t relate to their career.
  I would recommend that people not be so focused on a career. They should go to college to have new experiences and learn about themselves and the world they live in.

  Model Answer 1:
  People attend college for a lot of different reasons. I believe that the three most common reasons are to prepare for a career, to have new experiences, and to increase their knowledge of themselves and of the world around them.
  Career preparation is probably the primary reason that people attend college. These days, the job market is very competitive. Careers such as information technology will need many new workers in the near future. At college, students can learn new skills for these careers and increase their opportunities for the future.
  Students also go to college to have new experiences. For many, it is their first time away from home. At college, they can meet new people from many different places. They can see what life is like in a different city. They can learn to live on their own and take care of themselves without having their family always nearby.
  At college, students have the opportunity to increase their knowledge. As they decide what they want to study, pursue their studies, and interact with their classmates, they learn a lot about themselves. They also, of course, have the opportunity to learn about many subjects in their classes. In addition to the skills and knowledge related to their career, college students also have the chance to take classes in other areas. For many, this will be their last chance to study different subjects.
  Colleges offer much more than career preparation. They offer the opportunity to have new experiences and to learn many kinds of things. I think all of these are reasons why people attend college.
