...When watching The Bare Bears, one amazing thing I have noticed is that the friendship among them. They are so close to each other, but when a girl later involved in the friendship. Things seems have changed. Panda fell in love with the girl, but they other bears see the girl as a good friend. Later, there are funny things happen because of this. I was wondering what is this thing that makes friendship different between opposite sex. According to this, the question I used to lead my research is “What is the difference between same sex and different sex friendship?” This question is kind of broad and what I intend to do is looking to some specific aspects about it, especially gender. I searched a few research articles and found some that fits...

... In describing the gray zone, Levi discusses the different roles of prisoners assigned by the Nazi. The prisoners that did the work were seen as being more privileged which at the end of the day helped them get more food and live better. Therefore, the concept of the gray zone is analyzing the difference between the privileged and the non-privileged in the Lager. The difference can be seen by the tasks that the prisoners carried out, for example, one of the groups were seen as, “Low ranking functionaries... sweepers, kettle washers, night watchmen, bed smoothers... checkers of lice and scabies, messengers, interpreters, assistants’ assistants. In general, these people poor devils like ourselves, who worked full time like everyone else but who for an extra half liter of soup were willing to carry out these and other ‘tertiary’ functions.” This group was seen as harmless and not much different than the underprivileged. The other group of prisoners in the Lager was seen as the enemies to their own people. They were referred to as the Kapos who were “free to commit the worst atrocities on their subject as punishment for any transgressions, or even without any motive whatsoever: until the end of 1943 it was not unusual for a prisoner to be beaten to death by a Kapo without the latter having to fear any sanctions.” The prisoners that became part of the Kapo were seen as permanent. They were not accepted back by their people if they were willing to give up their privileges...

With the society we live in now and days, there are many people from all sorts of life. It is important to keep in mind that we are all not the same. We all have our own though and way of doing things and that often reflect as to how we are thinking in our minds. We all have different thinking and ways of seeing things. Everyone has different view and ideas toward how people see the world. It is often said that though are very important and how people react to them. The mind of human are unique and vary that people are often thinking about different things. If we knew how the human mind work, we will be able to stop most of the bad things that happen in the world today. We can only determine a little of what people are thinking and how to react to it.

...consideration when dealing with people of a different race, ethnicity, or culture. The Cognitive theory of personality development focuses on how people understand and think about the world. The cognitive perspective also deals with people’s motivation, decision making process, learning, and problem solving skills. On the other hand, the psychodynamic perspective focuses on the belief that human behavior is motivated by inner, unconscious forces over which a person has little control. In addition, the psychodynamic perspective deals with the development of the human personality in how we move and respond to our environment; it is also the reason why we act a certain way. The US is made up of an ethnically and culturally diverse population, in which it presents a variety of different point of views for many people. The way an individual was raise, the education level, and language skills are just a few factors that should be taken into account by psychologists when dealing with patients. I believe the environment in which an individual was raise can have a major influence in the development of one’s behavior. For instance, race has been an unfavorable factor in the American society from the beginning of slavery to the present. Race has presented many issues around the world because of people being judge because of their skin color, facial features, or hair type. Race has also had a major influence in the economic status and educational teaching of certain people. The experience of being...

...How do people from different backgrounds communicate Explain how people from different backgrounds may use and/or interpret communication methods in different ways. Communication can be slightly different when using it with other people from different backgrounds. Communication can be interpreted in different ways by different people, this is because they may not speak English, if from a different country, or they may not understand you. This is also a barrier to communication. Other people may think that if they’re being listened to, they will express their beliefs and their opinions about life. Different people from other backgrounds may use verbal communication to express what they think, however they could also use non-verbal communication to put their point across. Parent/carer of a child may have other preferences for their child to other parents/carers. This means the practitioner will have to respect these. Communication can be used in many ways by using different methods. Children from different backgrounds can communicate by doing what they like best. Children could use body language and facial expressions to express their needs or what they want to do in the workplace. Practitioners may use gestures and body language to show the parents/carers that they are always friendly and can be relied on. People from different backgrounds can use communication by being confident, just like what Amy Tan does with her mother every now and then...

James Baldwin comes to a conclusion similar to Wallace in his essay, “Notes of a Native Son” when he realizes it’s his choice on how to perceive and act in society to either make change or let society stagnate. Both these works show that people have control over social circumstances that seem like there is no choice but expresses this point in their respective points of view and examples. Both...

...Apple’s image in the global market. People were not ready to buy computers from a company who might not last a year. Jobs needed to change this image. Therefore the “Think Different” campaign was an attempt to change to consumer’s perspective for the company. With the “Think Different” campaign, the writers wanted to remind both their consumers and their staff, how Apple thinks differently, using rhetorical appeals of logos, ethos and pathos. It also symbolized the return of the genius that was removed from the company. Apple had lost the “creative” touch during his absence therefore it was very essential for him to create a campaign that would remind the consumers what Apple brand was all about. Through the campaign they hoped to gain their cool, hip image back. The writers used reasoning (logos), rhetorical appeal to stimulate audience’s common sense, beliefs and values by honoring revolutionary heroes and rationalizing that creative thinking produces positive change. The writer used pre-existing simple facts that drew conclusions in their favor. The visual elements included a set of historical influential people having certain common traits regardless of their diverse impact on the world. A few of the common traits were to disagree with the norms of the time, question the status quo, thinking differently and a strong will to change the world. The message of the piece is to honor those who think differently. Since the people who think differently, like Apple are...

...differences between my sister and me that you could never imagine. We are just so different that if we did not have the same blood, I would think that we were not sisters. We are the total opposite of each other. We are not just different physically; we are also different in personality. We think differently. We have different types of hobbies. We enjoy different things. In other words, we are just two different types of person that apparently do not have anything in common. My sister name is Aracely. She is younger than me by four years. She is white and tall. She is the kind of person that is always in a bad mood. She gets mad really fast and sometimes for nothing. It is lie she is happy being mad. I don’t know why she is like that; to me she is just weird. My sister is the girl that always wants to be alone. She doesn’t care for going out or making plans for the weekend with her friends. She prefers to be in our room alone without being bothered. I am the opposite from her. I am older than her but I actually look younger than her. Physically I’m morena, and short. I am the kind of person that is always happy and laughing about everything. I do not like to be alone; I am not used to it.

...from others, part of my envelopment as a child and a teenager has been surrounded by political issues, involving my country into sad and hard situations, destroying our culture, education and economy, forcing and scaring the people who decided to trust into a different opinion against the government, those ones will be recognized as “Traitors” and “Enemies of the nation” at least that was the way they used to call them. The visual arts means to me as a way to escape from reality and open our minds to others, to make them understand that there’s a another world outside complete different as the one who we live in now. At the age of seven, my father took me into a Father-son trip to the beach, where he gave me my first camera, an Instant water proof Kodak, one of the most beautiful gifts that i’m still appreciating from hem. Since then I have been feeling a passion for the Films and Photography a passion who becomes an intuitive path that guides me through life. For me films are about romance, adventures, tears, laughs and smiles, more than recording with a video camera, doing a film involves feelings, inspiration, originality, pushing the boundaries and making us to be able to distinguish ourselves from one another. Every mind is a different world, this life is a gift, no matter how pain full it seems to be, we need to be ready to take a risk, to grow and recognized that everyone has reason to live. I’m taking now the risk, I’m growing up and I’m recognizing my reason...

Is was filled with many deaths that seemed to tie all the strands of my life together and which bore some oblique relationship to both the orange and the doll” (P 2, L23 – 26), in this quote she realise that people around her die, the girl is well a known of her problems and insecurities and she sees the dead as a part of her life, she accept it, because there is only a defined amount of love to one person with she describes as a love - orange. Although the death takes a lot of people around her, she sees the funeral as a vacation, a time to come out of the house and a break from her own world. She is smart but childish at the same time, that can only mean that she is older than 10 years, I would say that she where a teenager, because her grandparents where still alive. The girl, that we do not know the name of, often hides under the bed when strangers come by her grand parents house, where she lives. Every time strangers come by, she would say these words to her dog: “A world outside” (P 1 L 8), the dog is a bit redundant in the text, but still an object that is used to support the fact that she is a bit more like other people. She is different, and she thinks she lives in a ‘inside’ world, that is one of the reasons why her grandmother dressed her all white to the neighbours funeral, the other reason why she is dressed all white, is the fact that, she sees the place people come to in the...

...Technology’s Effect on Reading Skills Things are much different from the generation in which I grew up technology-wise. We had few television shows for kids other than Saturday morning cartoons. Computers, even the PCs at home, were used for accounting programs or very early e-mail. There were very few games for kids and it took those forever for them to load. There were not many game systems and none of them were portable. We also did not have the cell phones that are available now with internet access. We did not even have internet. Things have come a long way since then. Today’s kids have access to cell phones, iPods, tablets, laptops, and a lot more options available to them. Modern technology has had both a positive and a negative impact on the current generation's ability to improve their reading skills. Kids growing up in 2015 are growing up in a different world. Life has a much faster pace in this era of technology. People can get things on demand and immediately. Kids in school have a harder time paying attention for long periods of time. This makes sitting still and paying attention to a teacher’s lecture difficult. It also makes getting past a possible slow part of a book or passage tough. Most of their electronics come with many different options and if they don’t like whatever is on they can change it. This makes teaching students what is needed for them to pass the standardized test very difficult. Another issue students have is lowered comprehension. Students...
