Totalitarian essays

Totalitarian essays LUJHANIS is based on technological advances making LUJHANIS a better society to live in. Society is the totality of social relationships among humans, a group of humans mostly well-known from other groups by mutual interest, participation in characteristic relationships, shared institutions, and culture. The one who will make the rules in our society will be the enforcer, the enforcer makes the rules for us to follow. The rules are very easy to follow not that much like The Giver. We, the society decide on who should be the enforcer, a trial is held and whoever wants to be the enforcer has to give their reasons and ideas, if your reasons are good and the society likes your new rules, or leadership you are the enforcer. Some of the rules that our society have are: 1. Dont break the law 2. Have responsibilities 3. Language that can be considered offensive on a basis of Sex, race, religion, creed, or national origin would not be Tolerated 4. Any attempts to undermine, or cause harm to LUJHANIS you will be doing time in prison. If someone breaks the rules they would be thrown in prison. In prison there is a maximum security and no way to get out, because there are video cameras watching 24/7 peoples every moves.

Benefits of Reading Aloud

Benefits of Reading Aloud Reading  hasnt always been a silent activity and  the experience of reading aloud can be enjoyed by people at any age. Back in the fourth century, tongues started wagging when Augustine of Hippo walked in on Ambrose, the bishop of Milan, and found him . . . reading to himself: When he read, his eyes scanned the page and his heart sought out the meaning, but his voice was silent and his tongue was still. Anyone could approach him freely and guests were not commonly announced, so that often, when we came to visit him, we found him reading like this in silence, for he never read aloud.(St. Augustine, The Confessions, c. 397-400) Whether Augustine was impressed or appalled by the bishops reading habits remains a matter of scholarly dispute. Whats clear is that earlier in our history silent reading was considered a rare achievement. In our time, even the phrase silent reading must strike many adults as odd, even redundant. After all, silently is the way most of us have been reading since the age of five or six. Nevertheless, in the comfort of our own homes, cubicles, and classrooms, there are both pleasures and benefits in reading aloud. Two particular advantages come to mind. Benefits of Reading Aloud Read Aloud to Revise Your Own ProseReading a draft aloud may enable us to hear problems (of tone, emphasis, syntax) that our eyes alone might not detect. The trouble may lie in a sentence that gets twisted on our tongue or in a single word that rings a false note. As Isaac Asimov once said, Either it sounds right or it doesnt sound right. So if we find ourselves stumbling over a passage, its likely that our readers will be similarly distracted or confused. Time then to recast the sentence or seek a more appropriate word.Read Aloud to Savor the Prose of Great WritersIn his superb book Analyzing Prose (Continuum, 2003), rhetorician Richard Lanham advocates reading good prose out loud as a daily practice to counter the bureaucratic, unvoiced, asocial official style that anesthetizes so many of us in the workplace. The distinctive voices of great writers invite us to listen as well as to read. When young writers ask for advice on how to develop their own distinctive voices, we usually say, Keep reading, keep writing, and keep listening. To do all three effectively, it certainly helps to read out loud.
