  1. The given passage is a recommendation made to the editor of the Shady Village newspaper. THe passage suggests that in order to reduce traffic on the Blue Highway a bicycle lane should be opened instead of traffic lane. The writer believes that the traffic lane will further increase the traffic instead of decreasing it. He cited the example of a traffic lane created on the nearby Green Highway where the rush hour traffic jams increased this winter. So the writer concludes that the construction of the new lane attracted more commuters because of which the traffic increased. Further in order to support his point of creation of a bicycle lane he mentioned that the Shady village has avid bicyclists because a recent questionnaire resulted that 75percent of the respondent would like to bicycle more hours per week than they currently do. A superficial glance at the argument may convince many readers, however an in depth analysis reveals that the argument is based on illogical reasoning and flawed evidences. First the writer states the disadvantages of constructing the traffic lane by presenting the fact that the new traffic lane at Green Way sustained increased rush hour traffic jams. However this evidence is unconvincing because the writer hypothetically assumed that the increase in jams was due to an increase in the number of commuters. There could be various other reasons for these increased jams like the jams were due to the conditions such as snow which is quite common in winter. Also the data of just few days could not be relied to interpret that the whole year observed an increased in jams. Therefore the writer should provide us with the data about the actual number of commuters in the Green Highway and the number of jams reported throughout the year. Second the evidence that the Shaddy village has avid bicyclists does not imply that these bicyclists actually use bicycle as a major means of conveyance. Therefore the writer should provide us the information as to how many of these bicyclists actually use bicycle for means for transportation. Even if we assume that these bicyclists will use bicycles for their most of the conveyance then too it is highly improbable that they would prefer to travel long distance with their cycles as Blue highway is the road linking the two cities therefore it would be far away from the two cities and the major transportation medium would be vehicles only. The writer should have given us the data about the number of people actually using bicycles to travel through the Blue Highway. Moreover the assertion that the many citizens are avid bicyclist is based on dubious evidence. The fact that 75 percent respondents said to increase the bicycle for more hours than they do now does nothing to bolster that many citizens are enthusiastic bicyclists as the writer did not provide us with the actual number of people participated in the questionnaire this data remains dubious in its results. Because 75 percent of 10 is just 10 and 75 percent of 1000 is 750. Therefore the information about the number of people participated in the questionnaire is required. Moreover the writer did not provide the link between the people's intention to do more cycling and the decrease of jams in the Highway. May be the people would increase cycling but only for exercising purposes and during the morning hours and not in the rust hour time. Such an increase in the cycling hours would contribute nothing for waxing the jams during rush hour traffic. So the write should have properly linked the increased cycling hours with its impact on reducing traffic. To conclude the writers assertion that the bicycle lane would contribute more than traffic lane towards reducing the traffic jams seems flawed and unreasoned. The writer needs to consider the above analysis and present the required information so as to present a conducing argument.
  2. please review. "There are two types of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist unjust laws." ------------------------------ Let us first attempt to define the just and the unjust laws. In simple terms just laws are those rules which are made for the benefit of the country and its people. These rules should be followed to maintain peace and harmony in the society. Every citizen of a country must follow these just laws. The unjust laws are those laws which serve the interest of the people in authority rather than benefiting the society or its members. These laws are often detrimental for the society and should be demurred. Proceeding further, for the proper functioning of any system it is required that the members of the system follow a rule of conduct. These rules maintain the decorum of the system thereby allowing the system to function in a smooth manner. An analogy could be drawn here by considering the scenario at schools. In schools children are supposed to follow certain rules, such as they should oblige the commands of their teacher, maintain discipline in the classroom and so forth. These regulations help in maintaining the propriety of the institution. Without these restrictions the school would become a mess. Similarly there are some basic laws which must be followed for a governmental system to maintain its stasis. These laws are just laws and are must for the development of a country. Unjsut laws as mentioned above are laws which are more inclined to cater to the personal profits of the authoritative people. These laws are imposed on the people without their consent. For instance in China, the communist government has implemented various restrictions on its citizen so as to ensure its supremacy. The government there wants a monarchy and therefore inhibits any force that tries to challenge it. It has manipulated the laws so as to favour its interest. The government has imposed various limitations so as curb any voice that rise against it. Liu Xiaobo, Ai Weiwei, Hu Jia etc are various leaders who stood against these unjust laws. But the Chinese government impeached these reformers as dissidents and put them under house arrest. In a similar manner there are various others restrictions that have been put by the Chinese government, such as ban on Google, in fear losing its paramount position. This is a clear example of how the Chinese government have created unjust laws to serve its needs. The need for Chinese people is to remonstrate against these unjust laws so as to get absolute freedom. If they did not resist these laws and followed them blindly then it is likely that the Chinese will become an autocratic country. Another example that can be quoted is of Islamic countries where women are made to follow unjust rules and laws in the name of religion. The women are not treated equally as per men. They are required to veil themselves. They have very little freedom and those women who breach the laws are inflicted various punishments. If they submissively accept these baseless restrictions then their life would become even more miserable. The women there need to open there eyes and protest against these biased rules. To conclude the laws are meant for the betterment of the people and society. If any regulations in the name of law suppresses the development of the society or its members then it should be disobeyed and resisted.
  3. "Conformity almost always leads to a deadening of individual creativity and energy." ----------------------------- In simple terms creativity is to produce something new, something with our own ideas whereas conformity requires one to follow already set rules and conventions, therefore I believe that the two are not harmonious with each other. Creativity and conformity are two different choices presented in our lives, if we choose to follow one then the option of the other one closes automatically and we cannot retract to choose the other. In other words if one opts the path of conformists then his capability to think and innovate ceases with time and if one goes for the path of innovation then his tendency to abide with the norms of the society decreases. So I agree with the topic. The main characteristic of a creative person is that he deals with the world with his own vision. He interprets the things with his own angle. This makes him think different and enhances his productivity. For instance the famous painting Mona Lisa is renowned because it depicts the heights of creativity whereas all the attempts to emulate it has been failed because the creativity is not to transcribe but to form new ideas. However this creativity is not acquired in a single day. It needs time to develop. The seeds of it are en rooted from the childhood only. If from the starting only the students are allowed to explore the world with their own perspective then can they develop the true creator in later. To support the point let us take the example of the students of Asian countries. In Asian countries like China, India etc, the students have to follow a prescribed syllabus and there they are not promoted to think and do something of their own, where as in western countries the child is allowed to explore his own world from the beginning. The upshot is that the Asian students have a restricted ken as compared to their western counterparts. They are good in international quizzes and competition which covers the school level knowledge. But not many of the Asians have achieved the Nobel Laureate which is an accolade for creativity. This is because the lacks of motivation among the students to work with free minds. They are not promoted by their teachers and parents to be creative. Therefore gradually get addicted to spoon feeding and lose their creativity and energy. Hitherto, most of the discoveries and technological advancements are the outcome of the urge to work on new ideas. Most of the great scientists in the world were also great non conformists of their time. For example the Galileo opposed the church and its theory of an earth-centred universe and presented his thesis of sun-centred universe. It was the skeptic nature of Newton which made him doubt the falling of an apple. Mark Zuckerberg dropped his higher studies in between only to do something different. These examples show us that the creativity in some way or the other demands non conformance. To conclude I would reaffirm my statement that conformity thwarts one's creativity. If one submissively follows the set trends then his foci shrinks and his mind becomes stoic. He becomes the frog of a pond and is unable to think beyond certain limits.

  5. Please rate The given memo recommends that the Automate should increase its worker’s pay in order to prevent their departure to the Sparks which offer more lucrative salary. He believes that as the Sparks is planning to expand its venture further in the town it is likely that more of Automate's labors will be tempted to join the Sparks. Though at first glance the president seems to offer a prudent advice, but a close scrutiny reveals the infirmity of the argument. First the writer mentions that the Spark is advertising job openings at salaries double than that given to our workers. However the evidence is not substantial enough because the topographical location of the Spark’s with respect to Automate is not provided. It may be that the new firm is established far away from the Automata’s location and workers may not be willing to go far distant from their homes for the job which besides increasing their fatigue will also demand for transportation charges. Further the evacuation of some workers does not seem to be a giant threat until provided the actual numbers of staff who left the company and how much does it affect on the company’s performance. One may raise doubts that if workers who left the company are few then can’t the work be distributed within the present workers? Or couldn’t this decrease in work force be covered up by hiring other workers from the state rather than increasing the salary? The writer also did not consider the various other probable reasons for the departure of the labours for instance mutual conflict between workers or less traveling distance between their town and the Spark. If such is the case then the problem could be solved by other measures and we need not to increase the pay. Moreover even though if we consider that the sparks is indeed giving much more amount to the workers then too it is not sufficient to convince that our workers will leave the company. The argument should have been complemented with some data such as the results of a survey done amongst the factory workers answering how many of them would be interested in leaving the company? May be many of them would not be inclined to leave because of the bonding they have with the company. Further as it is not provided whether the Sparks is an automobile company therefore it may be that many of our workers would not be seemly for their purpose. In such a case the labour force is unlikely to decrease. Finally it is highly probable that the additional plants the Spark is planning to build in the state is to be scattered throughout the state and would not be located near our vicinity. So the additional plants will not pose a threat. So the author should present us a detailed topographical state of our nearby area so that it the possibility of establishing a plant near us could be figured out. To conclude the above analysis of the argument raise serious doubts over the probability of any occurrence of mass abandoning of work force. To convince us the writer needs to provide various details about the location of Spark and whether it is an automobile manufacturing company or not.

  7. The past is no predictor of the future." ------------------------------ Let us illuminate the topic with the saying "What you sow is what you reap" i.e. what we have done in the past we have to face the consequences of it in the future. So my perspective is that it is according to the developments of the past that the future is moulded. These developments help in predicting the course of future. So, I more or less disagree with the topic. Let us consider the example of the German dictator Hitler. His father was a very strict man. He was very fussy and wanted Hitler to do well in his studies. Even though Hitler was brilliant at his studies then too he was subjected to torment for his small failures. These sufferings made Hitler callous and later when he became the dictator of Germany he too treated his subject with same brutality. Therefore it was his past that reflected his future. Another example is in our present world the present actions of humans have portended much of the future. The present advancements in the field of technology are good predictor of a future laced with machines and robots. It is believed that in future much of the work will be done by machines than by humans. Many of the movies like The Matrix, Transformers, Wall-e even go to the extent of depicting a future where machines rules or in other words a future where machine is the master and the humans are apprentice to the machine. The dependance of humans on these technological devices have presentimented a new era of machines. However these predictions should not be totally relied at. Predictions always have a bit of uncertainity invloved in it as past is construed on the basis of human insticts and interpretations. For example, when China adopted a communist form of goverment rather then a democratic one many forshadowed the future of China as a slow developing economy, but now China is one of the most powerful countries in the world. So some times may be the outcome is just reverse of what has been thought. To conclude, many of the upcoming scenarios can be well reasoned to be a consequence of past actions. Therefore past does prognosticate about the proceedings of the future but only when it is accurately interpreted.
  8. The passage suggests that the construction of new generating plants should not be done as the demand for electricity will decrease in near future. He presented various evidences which show that the electricity consumption by the homeowners is decreasing and therefore there is no requirement of a new plant. However a close scrutiny reveals that the evidences encompass only a narrow region and overlooked many important aspects, therefore the conclusion inferred is premature. First the writer highlighted the results from recent surveys that the homeowners are inclined towards saving energy. However the passage did not give us any information about the homeowners involved in the survey. One may raise doubts about the number of homeowners involved, the locality of these homeowners etc. Perhaps the total homeowners in these surveys are not significant enough and therefore a view of few people does not imply the perception of all. Also, the locality of these homeowners is also required as may be that they do not belong to the area for which the new plant has been constructed. Further, the writer advocates that the new appliances marketed are very energy efficient as compared to those sold a decade ago and new technologies are available to abate the enregy needed for home heating. Here we should consider the point that a decade ago not many homeowners have such expensive appliances as airconditioner and refrigerators as compared to now. Also today we will find that a house would have high electricity consuming appliances such as cellphones, laptops, microwaves, invertors, and numerous others which were not present in a many households a decade ago. So though the energy efficiency of these electronic products have doubled but the number of appliances used have also proliferated due to which there has been a manifold increase in the energy consumption. The writer mentioned that the 20 years old electricity genreration plants have always fulfilled the energy requirement, but as these plants are so old there are high chances that they may stop working any time. Here the writer needed to provide information about the present condition of these plants and should have given us an idea as to how long they can be expected to work. Because in case if any one of them fails or ceases to give the required performance then many of our homes may be devoid of electricity and that time an immediate installation of a plant would not be possible. So a new plant will act as a back up and ensure that in case of failure of any of these plants the energy demands of the people are met uninterruptedly. TO conclude the readers remained unconvinced of the writer's position in lack of proper reasoned arguments. THerfore the planning department should do a survey to find out the electricity consumption of the people and then accordingly choose for whether to install a new plant or not. Also the condition of the already installed plants should be taken into consideration.
  9. "The purpose of many advertisements is to make consumers want to buy a product so that they will 'be like' the person in the ad. This practice is effective because it not only sells products but also helps people feel better about themselves." ------------------------------ Humans have an inherent desire to look good and impressive. Everyone wants to be best. But they also know that nobody is perfect. However people believe that the perfection is close to what they see in celebrities, sports star etc. So they tend to follow them in hope or illusion to reach the perfection. Therefore when they see their role models advocating a product they get enticed by it. In my opinion this is a very effective practice. Proceeding further, the marketing industry employs this fact to lure customers. By endorsing celebrities they inculcate in people that by using the particular product they can look like the stars do. Also the customers in order to satiate their latent desire to be like their role models, get tempted to such ads. For instance if the famous actress Julia Roberts says that the particular product is the secret of her beauty, then many women who are the admirers of her aesthetics will be tempted to buy that product in belief that they too can get a flawless skin like her. Similarly if Arnold or Brad Pitt is seen advocating a product for their strength then many men would be allured by the products. Therefore the want of people to be like the figures makes them buy the product he or she is using. Further, in order to ensure that their product is recognised by many, the companies go for the most successful personality. Because the more successful the star is the more fan following he has and the more the product will be sold. Further a sense of quality and reliability is also associated with such figures. And when they advocate a certain product then a part of these characteristics also become associated with the product. For instance a particular tennis racquet manufacturing company would like to endorse Roger Federer for promotion of its racquets. When people see that such a champion is playing with the racquets of a company then they believe that company's racquets are reliable and have good quality. However the authenticity of these advertisements and products marketed by famous figures is dubious. Because it is often that the stars market a product not because it is indeed the cause of their success or beauty but because they get a handsome amount of money for doing that. It is many times that an actor shown to be using the product would have never used it for personal use. So though the people may buy product under the influence of celebrities they never get the desired results. In such cases the product may attract market during its initial period but does not last long in the market. Thus these methods go long way in burgeoning profits of the company but the authenticity of these advertisements and the products remains suspicious. And therefore the customers should be leery in choosing a prodct.
  10. The following appeared in a memo from the president of a company that makes breakfast cereals. "In a recent study, subjects who ate soybeans at least five times per week had significantly lower cholesterol levels than subjects who ate no soy products. By fortifying our Wheat-O cereal with soy protein, we can increase sales by appealing to additional consumers who are concerned about their health. This new version of Wheat-O should increase company profits and, at the same time, improve the health of our customers." The given paragraph is a recommendation made by the president of a company that makes cereals breakfast. The arguer is of the view that fortification of the product Wheat-O with soy protein would increase customers health and thereby increasing firms profit. Though at first glance the memo seems a lucrative proposal but a closer scrutiny highlights some of the important issues neglected by the president which undermine the recommendation. So let us analyze the argument. The first evidence presented by the arguer is in the form of a study showing how the subjects involved have reduced their cholesterol level by habitual use of soybeans. However the president has not provided any information about the subjects of the study. Data such as the actual amount of cholesterol in the subjects before and after the study should have been presented. Perhaps the people found to have lower cholesterol level had the same level before the consumption of soybeans and same may be the case with subjects having high cholesterol. Or may be though the cholesterol content was lower than those subjects not using soy but individually the content have increased. In such case the soybean could have an intimidating affect on people's health. Further, the author's posit that complementing of wheat-O with soy can be employed to lure customers cautious about their health and increase sales. However arguer has based this premise on sheer observation which could not be relied at. The authors evidence left many questions unanswered such as how many people are bothered about their health? How many amongst them would prefer to go for our breakfast cereals and not other source of soy? How much these sales contribute to the revenue? And does this revenue compensate the investment made in the fortification process? Because it may be that very less people are actually concerned about their health. Or even if they are then they might prefer other cheaper sources of soy over breakfasts cereals or may choose to go with some other brand of soy cereals. In such a situation our innovation might prove to be a lossy endeavor. To conclude I find the arguments weak and illogical depicting negligence of certain obvious flaws. To bolster his position president should have used some conducing statistics and data such as knowledge of the mob involved in the study, the quantity of cholesterol before and after the stuudy, their propensity towards health issues. In lack of these information I did not believe in the validity of the recommendation
  11. rate this please.. "Societies should try to save every plant and animal species, regardless of the expense to humans in effort, time, and financial well-being." With present state of the world pollution and degraded environment it has now become the most improtant topic for every existing society. The degraded condition of the environment has now endangered the existence of humans. So it has now become an imperative task to work and save every single plant and animal species on this planet. On one hand where the establishment of industries and factories have marked the development of society on the other hand it is responsible for the wretched condition of our environment. Today almost every constituent of our environment is brutally affected by the pollution caused by these industries. Whether it be air , water or soil a steep plummet can be seen in there quality. The smoke produced from the chimneys deteriorate the air. It is responsible for mixing many acidulous content in the air which has also resulted in the acid rains. Foul air has also given rise to many breathing ailments such as asthma. Also, the waste chemicals produced from the factories are being decomposed in sea and river water which has resulted in the depletion of many sea inhabitants. Forests have been cut on a large scale to satisfy human needs. The outcome of all this is now a poor condition of our planet. If porper care is not taken the earth would no longer remain a place to live. One may assert that the obvious solution to cope up with this is to reduce the factories and industries. But one would admit that the humans are too much accustomed with these to compromise. So the only viable option is to save every plant and animal species and also to undertake measures to increase them. Now if consider the effort, time and cost involved then with the above mentioned horrifying effects the profits that would be incurred in the protection and prevention of these flora and fauna are quite high. Plants act a very vital role in purifying the air we breathe so there protection would relieve us from many of the air borne diseases. This would definitely spare us from the expenses of treatment and also enhances our life expectancy. Moreover, plants nourishes soil and check soil sedimentation. Therefore if we save them it would let an increase in crops production. In a similar manner the protection of water inhabitants ,which are responsible from the purification of sea water, will promote quality of sea water. Also, it would stabilize our enviroment cycle which has been greatly destabilized with the extinction of these plants and animal species. The amount of efforts, time and financial inputs if taken into account then it can be derived that the profits from these are far away from the inputs given. However if this quetion had been put forth 30-40 years ago then my perspective would have been slight different. Because the conditon that time was not this much alerting. Our system has now been deteriorated to the extent that we must put our every possible effort in its nourishment. Also I agree that it is not solely human activities which has jeopardized these animals and plant species. There are several natural factors as well which has led to their extinction such as the factors which has lead to the extinction of dinosaurs. But as I pointed earlier that the condition has now gone too far from the limits that humans should put in every possible effort. To conclude, wtih the implication of extinction of humans, the efforts required in saving these treasures are far more less as compared to the benefits. The only possible way to come out from this quagmire would be to save what we have. Thus, it has now become inevitable for humans to save every plant and animal species.
  12. please rate this essay Prosperity of a society depends on two factors, the overall development of its individual and the overall development of its own. The negligence of any of the factors would not lead to the complete development of a society. However, these two factors are not mutually exclusive. Success of a society is the success of its individual members and success of individuals is the success of the society. So I more or less disagree with the topic. Before delving into the topic further we can ask some questions to develop the topic. Such as how can we say that a society is thriving? What contributes to be the overall success of the society? How the developments of society affect the individual? Let’s try and find the answers these questions. In my views overall success of a society encompasses, in one way or the other, the success of the individual. In other words, the success of a society is the sum up of the achievements of its individuals. For instance, before the Renaissance period society there was said to be stagnant and the period was known as the dark period. However, the Renaissance marked the beginning of a developed and thriving society. The society developed in every aspect such as painting, music, trade etc. The success attained by the society during this period can be mainly attributed to the contribution made by the individuals. For example they produced some of the finest works of the art. Pablo Picasso, whose work is cherished till now, belonged to this period. Therefore the Renaissance period is known to flourish because of the achievements of the individual. However there were no such remarkable accomplishments of the individuals during the dark period before Renaissance and so the society of that epoch is said to be stagnant. So we can say that success of society is the success of its individual. Another example is, often we find that if a player wins an Olympic medal then his success is celebrated by his society as a whole. This is because there the individual represents the country or the society. If they win then it is seen as the success of the society. So with these two examples it can be said that society prosper with the overall development of the contributed by its individual. Now if we look the other way round. How the developments of society affect the individual. My prospective is that if a society is developing then the fruits of its success would benefit every members of the society. That is the success will affect every individual. If for example if a society builds roads, develop hospitals and schools then it is for every individuals. Every single individual can benefit from those. Therefore it can be asserted that the development of society yields to the developments of individual. Also, for example if the students of a particular school consistently do well in some national level competitions and quiz then the success will be contributed to the school and teachers. The reputation of the school will improve and more people will want to enrol their students in that school. This in turn increases the revenue for the school. With this increased revenue the school would improve the facilities at the school. Like more trained faculties, better infrastructure and sports opportunities which will benefit the students. In a similar manner the success of individual and society relate to each other. Thus we find that there is a strong relationship between the success of the society and the success of the individual. They are not complete without each other. And for a society to thrive both are necessary.
  13. well here is another essay I have written..please rate it as well. "What we call progress is a matter of exchanging one problem for another." Progress can be said to be a transition from one state to another. The preceding state is more advantageous therefore we consider it as good and wish to advance more. But as is said that every coin has two sides therefore every state has its own benefits and disadvantages. While we move from one state to another if we acquire the good things of that state then we also incur bad things from it. So I more or less agree with the topic. A perfect paragon is the evolution of human beings. Human beings have traveled the path from an animal(ape) to social animal(human beings). This transmutation has been the result of constant progress. Human beings have achieved many things since then. They are now the most powerful and most intelligent living beings on this earth. However, this success came with certain disadvantages. Humans have sacrificed one comfort for the attainment of another. For instance, humans have build colonies and houses to protect themselves but they have separated themselves from nature. This has given rise to many ailments and diseases. Humans have developed various techniques and equipments to provide himself with leisure time but instead he spent most of his time in developing these accouterments. These developments has marked many changes. Nature loving ape has now become the biggest threat to the environment. The earlier tension and stress free man now lives on sleeping doses and stress reliving tablets. The life now has become tough. An analogy can be derived from the life cycle of a man from a child to an adolescent. A man starts his life as a newly born child when he knows nothing and is free from all the bondages. He does whatever he wants. He is free from all the responsibilities. Then he starts going to school and progresses. His life becomes a bit constrained. He now has to complete his homework before he could go to play. He has some liabilities to be completed. Then he becomes a man. He goes to work and has more responsibilities. He has less time for his family and himself. He is fettered within tensions. Then he is old and senile. He has grown weak and feeble. So, a man exachange something as at every step in the o ladder of his life. First he sacrifices his freedom during transformation from newly born to a school going child and later he sacrifices his leisure time during transition from child to a man. However, this cannot rescind the importance of going ahead in life. Progress is a very important factor for the continuation of life. Otherwise our life would become stagnant. Imagine how prosaic our life would seem if all the progress whether in the field of technology or science cease altogether. We have been so much accustomed to new discoveries and development that now it is hard to imagine life without them. It would not be wrong to say that without these development the purpose of life would diminsh. To conlcude, to preserve the neutrality of nature everything has its disadvantages. These disadvantages are counter effects of what we have accomplished. Industrial growth has marked the rise in pollution. The remarkable progress in field of health and science has been accompanied by the various maladies which are the result of pollution and degraded environment. Thus it can be concluded that progress is a matter of exchanging one problem to another.
  14. thank you lastnightilie! I understood what you are trying to say. The thing is I am weak at this analysis thing. When i first read a topic I think am I in favor or this topic or not and accordingly I try to over emphasize my side in the essay. And I often could not look at all the aspects of the topic. Just tell me am I too bad? And what should I do to improve in this regard?
