Explaining 에세이. 기술발전의 장점

Technology Changes the WorldTechnology has come upon us silently. People have adapted so easily to technology, they do not always notice its benefits. Even though more technology still develops, many people take it naturally without wonder. Actually, our lives today could not exist without modern technology. Yes, it is amazing how dependent we are on technology. If people look around carefully, they can easily see the benefits of technology in many areas of life such as sports, medicine, and education.First of all, benefits of technology abound in sports. Many people engage in sports because it gives them a feeling of satisfaction. Physical abilities are aided by sport technologies. One example is the treadmill. Through development of technology, one can exercise indoors and lose weight without having to go outside. For instance, if there is bad weather outside, one can just turn on the treadmill and work out. The electronic stopwatch is another technological benefit. The electronic stning, and rowing. The International Olympic Committee knows the exact time of competitors by using the electronic stopwatch. Another example of technological benefit is drug tests, which are used to make sure athletes are playing fairly. According to an article entitled “Bicycling,” the drug testing says that “‘clean’ athletes can compete and win” (1). Athletes feel fairer in the game because they can trust their competitors. Even if they lose the game, they will still admit defeat. Athletes are able to show who the real sportsman are. Therefore, technology is needed in the world because of its use in sports.Next, humans have benefited from medical technological developments. Many people are not conscious of the benefits of technology in medicine; however, technology is greatly improving people’s health. Surgical instruments (i.e. laser cutting) are an example of medical technology. According to an article in the Engineering Fundamentals, laser cutting is “[A] process by which complex to be successful in the acutest operation because technology allows surgeons to be more precise and less invasive. Taking a self-test is another example of technology in medicine. People are able to check their own health through self-test technology. They can measure their blood pressure, temperature, and even diabetes without a doctor’s help. Also, people see the marvels in technology through artificial limbs. Artificial limbs give amputees the ability to live a normal life. According to an article entitled “Artificial limb technology”, “The one’s sporting now is a marvel of high technology” (1). High-level technology like surgical instruments, self-tests, and artificial limbs play a huge role in medicine. Through these high-level technologies in medicine, humans are capable to get opportunities for prevention. Prevention, says the proverb, is better than cure.Finally, technology is greatly used in education. Professors and students are using technology to expand their knowledge. An find and learn new words. The electronic dictionary is also easy to carry because of its small size. Not only are there language-learning programs in electronic dictionaries, but there are also calculators, dictionaries of idioms, and the memo. Another example of technology in education is the ability to research information. Online classes show a representative example of technology in high school and college education. Taking online classes gives students the chances to learn in different settings. Students can work at own their pace and save time; they rarely need to go to the college for their classes. When students are taking an online class, office hours are unlimited. If they have a question while solving a problem, they can e-mail the professor, any time of day. Professors can answer the students’ questions quickly. Also, students do not worry about their shyness when they take online classes. Many students are too shy to ask questions in a regular class. However, they can feelare absolutely helpful for improving of students’ knowledge.In conclusion, technology is doing a lot of work for a person’s everyday life through sports, medicine, and education. Moreover, with the technology benefits attached to them, one can say that technology in sports, medicine, and educations have become extremely important. Technology is growing every day; even though people are not able to sense it easily because it is coming silently. However, recent advances in sports, medicine, and especially education, have made our lives easier, and better and people will realize that some day.Works Cited“Laser cutting.” Engineering Fundamentals 7 Apr. 2007.Richardson, Alan. “Artificial limb technology” ABC South East SA 8 Jun. 2004. 28 Mar.2007. < Hyperlink "http://www.abc.net.au/southeastsa/stories/s1126942.htm" http://www.abc.net.au/southeastsa/stories/s1126942.htm>.Weiss, Kevin. “Bicycling” Drug testing & sports 2 Apr. 2007< Hyperlink "http://bicycling.about.com/od/dopingdruguse/l/aa02GE 4

Sylvia Plath Daddy

8 May 2008Plath’s Unconscious Self-DestructivenessSylvia Plath was born on October 1932 in Massachusetts. She published her first book when she was eight years old. According to her biography, Plath experienced a great deal of sorrow during her childhood. Her father, a German immigrant and professor, died due to untreated diabetes a week after Plath’s eighth birthday. Her father was a strict authoritarian. Plath married an English poet named Edward James Hughes. However, their marriage dissolved when Plath discovered that her husband was having an affair so that it might have deeply affected her ego and conscious. Further, the experience likely resulted in intense mental pain. Soon after discovering her husband’s affair, Plath left her husband. In addition, a few months after writing “Daddy,” Plath committed suicide, leaving behind two children. “Daddy” is one of Plath’s most notable poems in which she describes her depression, fear of her father, and anger toward her husband. Through ck to you” (line 34, 48, 58). These lines reflect Plath’s love for her father and potential desire to be with him. In addition, it may show her somewhat sadistic side because she describes her father as a Nazi and describes herself as a Jew then she confesses that she adores a Fascist, even though she knows what Nazis did to the Jews during World War II. Furthermore, Plath explains her relationship with her father and husband in the poem by stating, “If I've killed one man, I've killed two- The vampire who said he was you And drank my blood for a year” (lines 71-73). It seems that Plath is confessing that her husband treated her as her father did. However, the next line implies that she loved her father because she states, “I made a model of you/ A man in black with a Meinkampf look” and “Daddy, you can lie back now” (lines 64-65, 75). The model refers to her husband. This means that she loves her husband because he is like her father. Plath then states that her father can lie back. Th she cannot speak openly. According to an article in Article Alley, “Putting her father to the Nazis, at the same time she puts herself in the same position as the Jews, being exploited and violated. In this comparative portrayal her father has the force to destroy his daughter, Plath, to be the reason of their metaphorical deaths all within legitimate limits” (Hunt). It also indicates that Plath believes that her father destroyed her as the Germans did to Polish and Jews. This oppression might make Plath decide to distance herself from her father. However, this seems to be the wrong decision because Plath says that she wanted to kill her father.Finally, in the last part of the poem, she descends into utter madness and expresses her anger, stating, “There’s a stake in your fat black heart/ And the villagers never liked you. They are dancing and stamping on you/ Daddy, daddy, you bastard, I’m through” (lines 76-78). These lines likely show her father seems to treat her badly and it may e life and possibly led her to become more depressed. After she divorced her husband, Plath committed suicide on February 11, 1963. For this reason, Plath’s murderous rage that comprised her unconscious destructiveness can be understood in psychoanalytic terms.Lastly, all of the expressions in the poem highlight her mental illness. Plath experienced mental illness early in her life and expressed her unstable personality disturbance. According to a research article in Perspectives in American Literature, Reuben states, “She had numerous sexual partners both at Smith and while in Cambridge” and “She experienced a mental breakdown which led to a suicide attempt and a year in a mental hospital where she endured electroshock and insulin shock therapy” (Reuben). In “Daddy,” Plath uses many cruel expressions that indicate her psychosis. For example, she states, “In the German tongue, in the Polish town/ Scraped flat by the roller” and “Bit my pretty red heart in two” (line 16, 56). Sylvia des College, “The poems in Ariel, which includes ‘Daddy’ mark a departure from her earlier work into a more confessional area of poetry. The impact of the publication of Ariel was quite dramatic, with its frank descriptions of a descent towards mental illness” (Harrison). Her father’s and husband’s emotional abuse created a persecution complex and potentially forced her to end her life. “Daddy” has some literary allusions that suggest that Plath was seduced by death. In the poem, she repeatedly states that she wanted to die. For example, Plath says, “I used to pray to recover you” and “At twenty I tried to die I tried to die/ And get back, back, back to you/ I thought even the bones would do” (lines 14, 58-60). Finally, three months after writing “Daddy,” she killed herself. Thus, in psychoanalytic terms, the poem highlights her mental oppression that might indicate a delusion of persecution.In conclusion, interpreting “Daddy” through the psychoanalysis strategy reveals Plath’s inner host

A Fable for Tomorrow Rhetorical Analysis

March 6, 2008A Fable for Tomorrow Rhetorical AnalysisRachel Carson published Silent Spring, about the disruption of the environment, in 1962. “A Fable for Tomorrow,” the first chapter from Silent Spring, describes one beautiful town located in the heart of America where all life lives in harmony with its surroundings. However, after a mysterious blight enters the town’s ecosystem, everything in the town comes under the shadow of death. In fact, the townspeople cause all of these dreadful happenings, but they do not realize that. The author’s main idea is that the serious environmental problem that the author describes could happen to the real communities because of the people. The author strongly evokes the reader’s emotion of fear about the environmental disruption and announces that the town does not actually exist, and this terrible event does not occur in the real world. The author effectively catches the readers’ attention by accentuating the three elements of the Greek Triangle—pfectively uses pathos to appeal to the reader’s sense of fear and guilt for the serious environmental disruption by presenting hypothetical disasters on a town, but it is an appeal to force fallacy. Throughout the text, the author exaggerates to describe the progress of the town’s downfall and then suddenly mentions, “The people had done it themselves” to appeal the readers’ feelings of guilt without giving scientific evidence. According to a critical article in The Heartland Institute, “Carson's biggest fear was overblown and has not been supported by later research, and Carson relies more on fear of the unknown than on scientific proof to capture the reader's attention” (Bast). Although the author grabs the readers’ attention, she appeals to the reader’s fear rather than providing examples to support the claim. In addition, an imaginary town’s tragedy impliedly threatens the readers that they could suddenly die before they realize the cause of the disaster. Therefore, the text effectllacy.Next, the text’s logos is persuasive, but one of the appeals seems to be a sweeping generalization fallacy. The author claims the horrible disaster, as described in the text, might happen and one of the environmental disasters in the text already have happened in some real communities. Thus, the author wants people to awaken to the realization of what can happen in the real world. However, the author gives hypothetical evidence to explain how people’s actions relate to this destruction and why people do not realize it and remain idle while their community is dying. In addition, according to an article in the New York Times, “Ms. Carson used dubious statistics, and she cited scary figures showing a recent rise in deaths from cancer, but she did not consider one of the chief causes. Actually, the cancer death rate was falling in the decade before ‘Fable for Tomorrow’ and it kept falling in the rest of the century” (Tierney). The article indicates that the author might have used irr the text; thus, the text’s logic is a faulty generalization.Lastly, the text’s ethos effectively calls the readers’ attention, but the ethos seems to be a potential fallacy. One critical review, in the book Human Ecology Review says, “A Fable for Tomorrow, the opening of Silent Spring, is an ‘apocalyptic vision.’ Lear claims that the opening fable was ‘a scary hoax, pure science fiction’ and that many reviewers were ‘unable to understand its basis in allegory and used it to further demean her credibility as a scientist’ (Bekoff). As the critic indicates, the text is unclear because it does not explain how the townspeople cause the horrible disaster, and it does not give an example of communities, which have experienced any of the environmental disasters in the text. Moreover, in the last paragraph of the text, the author says, “I know of no community that has experienced all the misfortunes I describe” and “many real communities have already suffered a substantial number of them.” In o establish credibility without any evidence because the author has an expert background.In conclusion, the author appeals to readers to know that a serious problem, as the author describes in the text, could happen. Therefore, people need to realize this and find a way to prevent these sorts of disasters. However, the author commits an appeal to force fallacy in the pathos, a faulty generalization in the logos, and the text’s ethos contains a potential fallacy. Nevertheless, the text effectively catches the readers’ attention for the author’s claim that the environmental disasters, which are caused by people, could happen to the real world while they do not realize that they are cause of tragedy.Work CitedBast, Joseph.
