According to the passage "the dangers of reality TV" by Timothy Sexton, the reality television is sending a several and confusing messages to the young people by stating that reality television gives the idea that image is more valuable than ability, that competition is important and education is useless.
I think the education is the key to succeed in life, because we have the ability to learn whatever we want and with a little effort we can be whoever we want.
With education you don't need to have the best body or be a super star to get a job, unless you get a job humiliating your self on national television like the reality shows this days. Everything you need you have it in you brain. Also with education you can go everywhere and you will have something interesting to say because you have learn about life and how to interact with people. For example i went to a job interview, twenty of us were waiting , i saw three beautiful girls waiting, none of us got the job except for one person with a high level of education, this remind me of the show " the bachelor " where is a men trying to find his future wife in a house full of beautiful girls, he doesn't know anything about their education level just that they have nice body and they are pretty, i don't think beauty buys knowledge.

Second with education you can cross obstacles , meet and help people, understand the reality of life, learn the difference between good and bad. People without education end up on the streets probably selling or doing drugs , stealing and killing each others.
Last there is nothing more satisfactory that know that you tried your best to become a better person and with all those sacrifices you can live your life full of knowledge. For example, my uncle die when he was thirty, he went to school to be a doctor, but he never had the opportunity to become one, at least he die happy knowing that he tried his best.
In conclusion, not everything is about the money, money doesn't buy happiness or knowledge, you need education in order to have a good future and a better quality of life.

ReplyDeleteHello John this is Maria from Professor's Rogers Cooper's eng 220 peer tutoring class. After reading your response to the assignment called blog 7 I would like to provide you some feedback on your work. I liked the fact that you were able to present your point of view by mentioning that education is the key to success and the way you nicely supported your claim. However I believe you needed stronger reasons to support the claim and I also noticed that you did not show enough evidence to back up the reasons you had.The information in your writing did not really connect to the meaning on the title since you didn't fully expand on the dangers of reality tv. Your thoughts about education should somehow be linked to the idea of reality tv being a danger.I was under the impression that you had only one reason and simply stretched it out through the paragraph. The only time you tried to back up the reasons you mencioned was when you quoted Timothy Sexton on line 2, you need to make your evidence stronger as well. You should also work a little bit in your sentence structure and grammar. Your sentences were too long so I suggest you use more periods instead of commas and your spelling could improve too. But above these issues I wish you good luck with the rest of your assignments. =)
