It's powerful, and promising. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250955?scroll_to=2362393 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250955?scroll_to=2362393 Tue, 02 Mar 2021 14:22:17 -0500 This is the author's main thesis. https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362320 https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362320 Tue, 02 Mar 2021 14:06:23 -0500 By using specific diction such as "flair" and "dream", the author gives this article a positive tone. https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362317 https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362317 Tue, 02 Mar 2021 14:05:15 -0500 I think the author's structure in the overall article is well-written and easy to read. https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362311 https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362311 Tue, 02 Mar 2021 14:04:16 -0500 Evidence to support the main claim. https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362307 https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2362307 Tue, 02 Mar 2021 14:02:58 -0500 I believe that the author automatically both catches your attention and states the main claim on the article. She claims that Black Panther is a movie unlike any other, with both the production and the content. https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2351060 https://nowcomment.com/documents/248273?scroll_to=2351060 Wed, 24 Feb 2021 02:16:24 -0500 It's a common theme throughout the book that Henrietta believes her children are the most important thing in her life. Although she can't be there for them, she makes it her last wish for someone to take care of them. https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350066 https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350066 Tue, 23 Feb 2021 14:12:58 -0500 In this book, Henrietta can only receive donations from the "colored blood" supply. This racism and inequity sets the stage for what period of time this takes place in. https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350058 https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350058 Tue, 23 Feb 2021 14:11:10 -0500 The relationship between Emmett and Henrietta is very sweet to me. I believe that they take care of each other, and each hold each other in a very special place in their heart. https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350048 https://nowcomment.com/documents/258737?scroll_to=2350048 Tue, 23 Feb 2021 14:09:13 -0500 Using the word "we", shows that Biden wants our country to be unified, and wants to be a part of the American people. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293695 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293695 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 14:10:04 -0500 One of Biden's main themes throughout this speech is "unity", because a lot of Americans feel as if there's been a lot of division in our country from the past 4 years. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293685 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293685 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 14:08:01 -0500 By using hopeful words such as "renewal" and "resolve", Biden is announcing that he's planning on trying his best to rectify the previous mistakes Trump had made. https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293673 https://nowcomment.com/documents/250437?scroll_to=2293673 Tue, 26 Jan 2021 14:05:59 -0500 COVID-19 genuinely scares me. The fact that we still have so little information about the virus, let alone different strains of it, makes me extremely nervous. https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259237 https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259237 Tue, 05 Jan 2021 15:03:55 -0500 One of the good things about 2020 is that my dad actually was able to obtain his citizenship in the United States and voted for the first time. https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259234 https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259234 Wed, 11 Aug 2021 08:15:57 -0400 It feels so surreal to see so many people together, without masks or social distancing. I miss this feeling. https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259230 https://nowcomment.com/documents/246060?scroll_to=2259230 Tue, 05 Jan 2021 15:01:02 -0500 It's very apparent that Orwell's tone is rather negative in this sentence as he describes how much he hates his job. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221757 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221757 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 14:52:11 -0500 The way the sentence is written with particular imagery helps the reader picture the event with the detail given. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221731 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221731 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 14:49:50 -0500 He expresses strong hatred for the empire, yet he has to work for it as a way to make a living and maintain his job. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221716 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243929?scroll_to=2221716 Tue, 01 Dec 2020 14:44:19 -0500 One of the main ideas in this main passage is the danger of language. If language is limited, individual thought is exploited. https://nowcomment.com/documents/243212?scroll_to=2213099 https://nowcomment.com/documents/243212?scroll_to=2213099 Tue, 24 Nov 2020 15:47:22 -0500 Touching your mask with bare hands after using it defeats the whole purpose. You create more bacterial infection on something that is supposed to protect you. It's vital to take off your mask from the ear straps, especially if you've been touching stuff. https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151595 https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151595 Wed, 21 Oct 2020 15:40:10 -0400 Many Americans refuse to wear masks because they say they have a pre-existing condition that affects their lungs. Experts say if you have lung issues, you should wear a mask more intently than the average American. https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151563 https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151563 Wed, 21 Oct 2020 15:37:50 -0400 The use of masks has been proven by many studies that it is the most efficient way to stop the spread of coronavirus. Although many Americans are afraid that they can't breathe properly, it has been proven that wearing a mask doesn't affect oxygen flow. https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151557 https://nowcomment.com/documents/236869?scroll_to=2151557 Wed, 21 Oct 2020 15:36:45 -0400 I agree that excessive screen time can lead to unhappiness, but I think the author was a bit biased. She made it seem like we're all on our phones 24/7. When it reality, more teens are involved in school-related extracurriculars than ever. https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132575 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132575 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:27:01 -0400 I agree that the author maintained a sort of negative perspective of our generation. She made it seem like we were all screen-addicted, sleep-deprived, self-obsessive individuals. https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132573 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132573 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:24:44 -0400 I totally agree. I think a big portion of what the author missed is that majority of all of this stuff has to do with the personal opinion of the person. You can't accuse an entire generation based on a little research. https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132570 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132570 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:20:44 -0400 I definitely fall asleep with my phone at my side. But it's not because I'm obsessed with it. Ever since I was little, I've always had to fall asleep to some sort of noise. So whether it's leaving my tv on or listening to music, social media is irrelevant https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132569 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132569 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:18:39 -0400 I disagree with this statement. Being from the author's "iGen" generation, I think that the state of happiness and mobile devices has to do with the person, not with age. https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132567 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132567 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:15:04 -0400 First off, I like how the author actually uses viable evidence throughout the article to back up her statements. Second, I agree that the use of social media among young teens can shape and mold their mental health negatively. https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132566 https://nowcomment.com/documents/235254?scroll_to=2132566 Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:12:35 -0400
