excerise 1.3




A lot of people seem to wonder, is college really worth it ? people agree some people
may disagree. Individuals may go to college to better their lives and get a job they love to wake
up to and go to everyday and there are people that go to college because maybe they were
forced or felt like they had to. I feel that college depends on the person. To me, some people
may not need college because they may already have the knowledge they need or a job they
are happy with. Some people, depending on their major, may need further knowledge in order
to obtain their career. 
            A college education could raise a student’s chance of economic success in the future.
The amount of knowledge and degree level can determine your income. When it comes to
college, people may only do it for the money not because they love that job. I feel like you
should at least wake up doing something you love to do. Some newly minted college graduates
struggle to find places to work. Others accept jobs for which they may feel overqualified. For all
the struggles that many young college graduates face, a four-year degree has probably never
been more valuable. People with four-year degrees make more an hour than people without a
degree.
            There is nothing certain about this trend. If there were more college graduates than the
economy needed, the pay gap would shrink. The gap’s recent growth is especially notable
because it has come after a rise in the number of college graduates. The pay gap has
continued growing which means that we are still not producing enough of them.

1.      What is Jones thesis? Restate in your own words. 2.      What arguments does Jones present as evidence in support of his thesis? 3.      What arguments against his position does Jones identify? How does he refute them? 4.      Paraphrase Jones’s concluding statement.  Jones thesis is to argue that violent media isn't bad for kids, it actually helps them. To restate his thesis, violent media helps kids escape from adolescence to decrease their natural aggression. Arguments to jones thesis would be a superhero role-model giving a kid strength and making him brave. Children need a way to vent their emotions and letting them read stories, imagine they are heroic crime-fighters, and act out battle scenes playfully with their friends helps them develop into kids that will communicate with others and not be shy. All kids have...

My topic is gun control My research question is: why do people use guns for illegal reasons? My claim is: by creating stricter laws you stop illegal gun activity. I am interested in the topic of gun control because, personally, I like guns and I wanted to learn more about how guns work, what people use them for, and the many crimes that are committed with guns. I wanted to purchase a gun for protection purposes and because I like guns and I would like to have a collection. My audience is anyone that has or wants to purchase a firearm.

I agree that kids shouldn't be exposed to technology at young ages. As proved in the article, technology messes up kids minds and causes them to be lazy and dependent on their devices. Kids should be exposed to technology when they are teenagers like 15 or 16. Early use of technology can also cause kids to get attitude with there parents and disobey them.
