being judged by your physical appearance, gender, age or race has been a problem for many people around the world. we all have experienced segregation or rejection at some moment in our life. i am not the exception. i am an overweight latin girl, two characteristics that do not me very much in a bullying society. i am an excellent student, speak beside my native language – spanish, english and i am currently studying portuguese. once there was a job opening for an international company. i was the perfect candidate for the position. i fulfilled all the requirements to get the job. yes, because of my curriculum i was called for an interview. the same day, other candidates were appointed too. i simply said to myself: this is for you, no one else is as prepared as you are, besides, you are smart, honest, responsible and reliable.

the recruiter called me, it was a middle age man, demanding looking one. as soon as he saw me entering the room he looked at me and said: “i am sorry, you are not the type of person we are looking for. it is for the reception and we need someone with different physical appearance”

i felt like if a train had run over me. i felt miserable. he didn´t even asked me a question nor check on my skills! a pretty face and a perfect body was just as perfect for the position.

when i got home i cried for a long time until my tears dried from my being, then i told myself: you are who you are, no one can tell you that you are not good enough because of your physical appearance. your intelligence will last forever! bodies age, faces disappear, but you will always be

Autopia is a perfect place which is impossible - there is no way that such a place could possibly exist.sir thomas more once wrote his utopia where he portrayed a seemingly perfect society where there was no crime, no pain, no suffering, famine, lack of any resources. however, it turned out that these people lived in a dictatorship and didn't know that their lives were actually bad. my vision of a utopia would include a similar thing - no hate, wars, pain and suffering, a place where everyone would be happy and satisfied. however, unfortunately, that is impossible.

Article one: the new york tribune from december 5, 1859on leaving the jail, john brown had on his face an expression of calmness andserenity characteristic of the patriot who is about to die with a living consciousnessthat he is laying his life down for the good of his fellow as he stepped outof the door a black woman, with her little child in her arms, stood near his way. thetwain were of the despised race for whose emancipation and elevation to the dignityof children of god he was about to lay down his he stopped for a moment in hiscourse, stooped over, and with the tenderness of one whose love is as broad as thebrotherhood of man, kissed [the child) affectionately. article two: the cincinnati enquirer from december 3, 1859we rejoice that old brown has been hung. he was not only a murderer of innocentpersons, but he attempted one of the greatest crimes against society-the stirring upof a servile and civil war. he has paid the penalty for his crimes, and we hope his fatemay be a warning to all who might have felt inclined to imitate his aggressive conduct. now it is your turn. you need to synthesize the two articles mentioned above into one or two paragraphs. you may lookat the synthesized paragraphs above for an example, but your paragraph should be different. remember to follow theprocess hints mentioned earlier in this lesson. iuflad

In at least 150 words, discuss the comparison described in the figurative language and how the connotative language reinforces the symbol. certainly the utmost rim of my first dome was filled with the tumultuous impression of soldiers marching to death for freedom's sake, of pioneers streaming westward to establish self-government in yet another sovereign state. only the great dome of st. peter's itself has ever clutched my heart as did that modest curve which had sequestered from infinitude in a place small enough for my child's mind, the courage and endurance which i could not comprehend so long as it was lost in "the void of unresponsible space" under the vaulting sky itself.
