The
Inadequacy Of Language
[ send
me this paper ]
7 pages in length. The evolution of human language is a
great mystery. Its structure is different from that of any
other type of communication on the planet, yet its
definitive origin is still unknown beyond intelligent
guesses. However, linguists continue to pursue the hidden
secrets behind the evolution of language, as well as
identify the myriad inadequacies. The fact that language
erects a significant communication barrier is quite easy to
understand; with the dozens of various tongues spoken around
the world, it does not take much comprehension to accept
this argument. Because this barrier exists, it is not a
simple task to express oneself to a person of a different
heritage by utilizing speech alone. It can readily be argued
that verbal communication brings with it a considerable
amount of misunderstanding, whether that has to do with the
actual words chosen, the inflection or the hidden meaning
behind them. While language is one of the most intimate
parts of culture, it can also be one of the most dividing
among peoples. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The
Speech of General Colin Powell before the Republican
National Convention
[ send
me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the speech that General Colin
Powell made regarding the state of education in the US prior
to the official nomination of George W. Bush as the
Republican candidate for the 2000 presidential election. It
is a wonderful and rousing speech, but the greatest evidence
of the effectiveness of General Powell's speech does not lie
with those who agree to his statements, but rather with
those who agree with little or none of it. The biting
sarcasm that at least one critic managed to convey speaks
more as to the effectiveness of General Powell's speech than
could anyone who agrees with his statements. Bibliography
lists 4 sources.

"Hooked
on Phonics" -- A Product Designed to Take Teaching
Reading Back to Basics
[ send
me this paper ]
This 14 page report discusses the reading program
"Hooked on Phonics" that is used to help children
in learning to read and write. Proponents of the program
believe that it is vitally important to understand that a
great number of the children who appear to be unable to
understand a concept or a set of directions are actually
having problems recognizing actual words. As a result of
having to direct their focus so carefully and devote so much
attention to slowly and carefully figuring out the words,
they focus less attention on what the text means. Children
who recognize words more readily can focus more attention on
meaning. That recognition can be enhanced through
understanding the relationship that exists between sounds
and letters in an alphabetic code. Phonics then establishes
the basis for that process of decoding words. Bibliography
lists 9 sources.
