Teachers of comp: post best student sentences

1. Many of the newer buildings and companies built since the “Go Green” epidemic installed efficient or water sense appliances.

2. This was the introduction to a paper: “You're the only one who can make the difference. Whatever your dream is, go for it.” As Magic Johnson once said, a change must begin with you before it can change the lives of others. Small changes slowly impact the whole world, and often only one person thinks of them. That one person must influence others to think the same as they do, and that is how a new idea is sparked. [University name] may seem like a huge place right now, but if a change is made on your own, others catch on quicker than expected.

3. As a member of the student population of this college I appreciate the strong effort [university name] puts towards making the campus as environmentally couscous as possible, but I have noticed that we as the students and staff still produce a large amount of garbage.

4. With this article the author does a good job of making sure that the sentence structure flows and does not appear to be to chopping. This could de great the author’s credibility and thus causing readers to not believe the facts.

Couscous (play /ˈkʊskʊs/ or /ˈkuːskuːs/) (Berber: Seksu) is a Berber pasta dish of semolina traditionally served with a meat or vegetable stew spooned over it. Couscous is a staple food throughout Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia and west of Libya.

5. Even though women provide the same work abilities and work performance as males, women are not treated the same way or as fair as men. From childhood to adulthood, we as a society have been raised to believe that men and women were completely different. Men were born with genitals, women were born with vaginas.

I don't expect anyone to actually read this, but it warrants posting the entire introduction.

6. The expectations to be like Batman
The point of the ad is to portray by drinking milk, Batman is strong and buff. I believe that this is geared mainly toward men because when they see this ad then they will think that they can do anything that Batman does. I think that this is also geared toward children because they look up to him and have the expectation to be like him one day. In the ad by drinking milk Batman shows mainly children and men that being fit, strong, and intimidating is easy. This is easily done because you are getting the proper nutrients and protein, according to the text in the middle of Batman’s body, to get strong and buff like him because milk. According to Douglas B. Holt, “milk was the key to good health particularly for children. It is linked back to the dairy farms on the countryside, where it is healthier both hygienically and morally.” Looking at the ad overall, it shows that Batman is a strong, buff, and healthy man. His suit helps convey that because it potentially portrays his body underneath of his suit. The colors of the ad show that Batman might be on top of a building and he is giving a certain look of intimidation to show that he is watching over everything. This look is not only challenging but is also encouraging for those men and children that are looking at this ad to become good and strong like him.

crossposting from the 'things that you have found' thread. I was working as a janitor and I found this black notebook on a library shelf. It had this entry titled "Brotherhood".

To be completly honest I have never realy been a good brother, but perhaps that is why I am best fit to speak about this. Within my heart burns an everlasting flame which does not flicker, the dark of despair cannot hide it for in the dark I can Feel and see its heat emited with every beat of my aching heart. It is my desire to become a TRUE BROTHER.

There are 3 types of brothers in this world. The first is the blood blother, a blood brother is a brother whos only relation with you is the blood given by your parents. The second is the stepbrother, a stepbrother is a brother who is brought into your family by a stepmom or a stepfather. Finnaly there is the TRUE brother.There are few worthy of this distinction, they are on the brink of extinction, they are constantly bieng hunted by soceity and what is the so called "status quo". The traits [page break]

of a true brother consist of the following, bieng there for you in your time of need. Holding you to what you say you will do and always doing what he says he will do. The True brother will stand up for you when others try to bring you down. The true brother will always stand by you no matter what. You do not have to share the same blood, or family, only the same Love. Perhaps the reason why so few can claim the worthiness of bieng titled the true brother is because they are to afraid to be the change they want to see in the world. If we were all true brothers the world would bring no suffering as it does now, no war only a brotherhood of the human race. So let us all put one foot out now. Are we to busy following to lead? As a wise man once said "the journey of a thousand miles begins with a step" So let us take that step now and begin the journey to becoming the true brother.

You want to read the counterargument?

The darker colors of this ad can also attract a certain audience because the ad in all is a little spooky. Another audience might be the opposite if Batman, like criminals. If criminals were to see this ad they might be intimidated and they might also start drinking milk, so they can stand a chance against him. Batman is the main focal point of the ad and the background colors around his head are kind of an intimidation to show that he is watching what everybody does. This look of intimidation would be toward men because it would make them want to drink milk and be at Batman’s level. This would be both physically and mentally to encourage this specific audience to look and act a certain way.

A personal fav

My counterparts would agree that feminism does not exist the way it use to because woman can vote, and hold high work positions in the work force and this has caused the government to believe that feminism does not exist anymore. This is what people that believe feminism has vanished are saying. Due to the difference between what woman could do in the 1840’s compared to woman in the 20th century; it seems as if women are treated equal in our society today. But, what the government is not telling us is the truth. Feminism is still around. Many would say due to woman being able to leave their homes instead of staying in has made feminism disappear and some will also say that now woman can vote and this has also made feminism disappear. This in fact does not mean anything. Feminism still exist because woman are still treated unfair in the work field with unequal pay, they cannot advance as quickly as men in the work field and still deal with gender inequality in the health field. Our society and the government have not fixed feminism; they have put it on the back burner to be thought of later. Feminism still exists today and will not go anywhere until the issue of gender inequality has been fixed.

most of this stuff was from a mid-level class (which means they tested out of the remedial class). the following person passed the mid-level class, and is in the upper-level:

The overall selection of “I Feel So Damn Lucky” is a well written piece of work that is easy to follow. Having the selection being easy to follow allows reader to understand to points that the author is making without having to read too much into the selection. Also by having the selection is well written and uses language that the audience understands, helps make audiences more attentive because the word choice and the statements are not too difficult to understand. To add to the word choice the author makes the read want to read more so that the reader can understand the authors opinion. These components make the selection a well written piece such that it backs up the author’s creditability

for instance, here's the revised counterargument after i told him the one above was basically insane

Although this ad is supposed to be serious, it can also be taken as humorous too. Batman is portrayed as tough and intimidating, but his milk mustache may throw some people off. If people were to look at this they will know that it is trying to promote the “got milk?” campaign, but it is also advertising the movie Dark Knight. People seeing this ad might not think that Batman is a tough man, they just might think that he is a joke. Thus they might not see the movie because they think it will be a waste of time. There is an understanding on what “got milk?” was trying to do, but they didn’t think out that the mustache might have turned off people’s attention to the seriousness of the ad.
