The Dangers of Social Media by Point/Counterpoint The Dangers of Social Media by Point/Counterpoint
1. Read: The writers of these two articles agree that social media has become an integral part of our lives, but they disagree on who should be using it. One writer argues that it may be helpful for preteens to gain experience in the world of social media, in order that they learn how to use it appropriately as teenagers and adults. The other writer argues that social media is fraught with dangers, and could have detrimental effects on young users. Both writers present strong arguments and support their claims with sound reasoning and convincing evidence. Which argument do you feel is more persuasive?

3. Answer the following Think Questions in your Student Notebook.
1. What evidence is there that both the “Point” and “Counterpoint” writers believe that social media is a permanent part of American society? What different conclusion do the writers draw from this point of view? Cite specific textual evidence to support your responses.
2. What does the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) prohibit? What view of COPPA does the “Point” writer hold? What evidence enables you to infer that the “Counterpoint” writer would not agree with the “Point” writer’s point of view? Cite specific textual evidence to support your answers.

Answer:
"Can make it difficult for adolescents to form deeper relationships." "Most social media websites make it easy to use pictures instead of words to convey information" so I think superficial means something that is in a bad way, possibly judgement. Superficial actually means existing or occurring at or on the surface. For example, If you're judging a book by its cover, you're being superficial. People who worry too much about their clothes and hair may also be considered superficial. The word superficial has to do with appearances and the surface.

Select the correct answer. True or False: It is okay to manipulate textual evidence to suit your purposes as long as the words you quote are from the source and in the same order. A. True B. False
Answer:
B
Explanation:
It is not okay because even though you are giving credit to the person who originally wrote it and in the same order it is still using it for your own purposes which is never okay and if a teacher didn't tolerate it you could get in trouble or even worse have to restart

CHARACTERS:
Vulture, male
Flight Attendant, female
Pilot, male
Man, standing at the back of the line
Woman, wearing a fox stole
Passengers, forming a line
(People are calmly standing in line with boarding passes in their hands. Flight Attendant enters stage left. She approaches the front of the line.)
Flight Attendant: (in a falsely cheerful voice) We are now ready to board for Flight 5B. Please have your boarding passes ready.
(The line begins to move forward. Suddenly, a chain reaction of gagging and screaming starts from the back of the line. The people in the back of the line are looking off stage right.)
Flight Attendant: What is it?
(A vulture enters stage right. He is carrying several beat-up, old stuffed animal dolls with him.)
Vulture: (to last man in line) Excuse me, sir. Is this the boarding line for Flight 5B?
Man: Aaack! You are carrying around dead animals! That's disgusting!
Vulture: I brought them as an afternoon snack.
(The people in the line react more violently than before. The sound of their gagging fades. The lights dim and a spotlight hits the vulture.)
Vulture: I guess I can't blame them. This is the reaction I get everywhere I go. (sighs) It's hard for a vulture to make friends with humans. Humans have called me ugly, gross, disgusting. The list goes on. I've stopped trying to reason with them. I tried to explain that I was just made to eat animal carcasses. I don't know how to make them understand. I don't act rudely when I see someone eating fruit. All I want is a little respect.
(The gagging sound begins again and lights come back up.)
Man: Go away! No one wants you on this plane.
Flight Attendant: (approaching the vulture, holding her nose) Sir, you are creating a disturbance and bothering the other passengers. I'm afraid that I cannot allow you to board this plane.
Vulture: But I bought a ticket like everyone else.
Woman: If he gets on that plane, I am going to sue the airline for undue distress. I can't believe he wants to bring dead animals on the plane. Dead animals are disgusting.
Vulture: (to audience) Someone needs to tell that to the little guy draped around her neck. (to flight attendant) Well, if you don't let me on, then I'll go to the ACLU and sue the airline for discrimination!
Flight Attendant: Oh no. Umm . . . umm.
(Pilot enters stage left.)
Pilot: What is taking so long? We are on a tight schedule. Let's get this plane . . . whoa, what's that smell?
(All the people talk at once and point at the vulture. The vulture droops a little. The flight attendant runs to the pilot and grabs his arm.)
Flight Attendant: We have a big problem. This vulture bought a ticket and wants to board, but his "luggage" is causing a commotion. What should we do?
Pilot: (approaching vulture) I'm very sorry, sir, but you cannot get on the plane with those. (points to stuffed dolls) The airline's rules are very clear. (clears throat and speaks as if reciting a memorized passage) Chapter 4, Section 20, Paragraph 2, "Only one carrion allowed per passenger."

Explanation:
The novel "The Strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" by Robert Louis Stevenson is a book which tells a story about an old doctor with mental issues and has the ability to shapshift into another person by a sip of a potion. Utterson, his long time friend, is taking time in investigating in this mysterious and puzzling case. However, the storyline of this novel is not realistic and it is easy to tell that it is a work of fiction.
Firstly, regarding the realism of the story, I did not really appreciate it because for me it's not realistic at all. Not just because of the science fiction element, which is normal for this genre to not be realistic, but because of the story in general without considering the science fiction element. For example, we know that Dr. Jekyll is a sociopathic criminal who is murdering people, but the police in the novel are not taking this seriously. It is not normal that in a situation, like in the novel, the police are not very engage while realistically speaking, the police should be doing thier best to solve the case.
Secondly, we can asume that Utterson have many clues and hints to help him the identity of Mr. Hyde, Jekyll, yet he did not manage to find out. It was just as if he did not consider and actually thought about the clues that was given to him, and that is another example of something not being realistic. People might just think that Utterson may not be not very smart but he, as a lawyer, should be able to point out the answer based on the clues.
Finally, another example that proves the story is not realistic is, in chapter 6, Utterson did not open and read the letter from his friend, Lanyon, who had passed away. The letter was a part of the strange case of Jekyll and although that he was told not to open it, I wonder how his curiosity did not take over him like normal humans let thier curiosity take over them. The letter being something that relates to the case was also another reason for it to be opened and read yet Utterson resisted and left it unopened.
This is the finished edited version I did for you and I'm also going to add a conclusion for you since most essays have one and I'm not exaclty sure why you didn't have one.
"The Strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" is definitely strange. The story and actions of the characters were not what a normal human would do in real life. Although that the genre is science fiction, the decisions of the characters were not realistic. There is no logical explanation on the reason behind it. All in all, the novel by Robert Louis Stevenson has a confusing storyline.
I changed some of the phrases to make them sound better but just a reminder that you don't have to. It sounds more professional to me but it might not for you so change what you think should be changed since this essay isn't mine. I really hoped this helped and your english level is already really good, I just think that you should practice some more on the grammer part:)

Read the excerpt from "Finding Unity in the Alabama Coal Mines.”
The southern state of Alabama was a stronghold for Jim Crow practices. Nevertheless, the UMWA was able to bridge the racial divide in that state, forming a powerful interracial labor union fifty years before the civil rights movement of the 1950s and ’60s would make racial integration the rule of the land.
In the context of Alabama in the 1900s, the UMWA was culturally and historically significant because it
a. supported the civil rights movement.
b. was a segregated organization.
c. was an interracial organization.
d. supported coal mining companies.
The right response is that c. was an organisation that mixed races. The United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) was able to cross the racial gap and establish a potent interracial labour union at a period when Jim Crow laws were widely used in Alabama.
In a state where racial segregation was the norm and the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s hadn't even begun, this was an impressive accomplishment. The UMWA was the first group in Alabama to unite individuals of all races in the struggle for fairer pay and working conditions.
The organisation served as a platform for the growth of racial equality and civil rights, serving as a sign of hope for people who had experienced discrimination. The UMWA's ability to come together for civil rights.
