An Attractive Proposal

When we first read this in the classroom , we were shocked because of Swift's ideas for the children. Then, we learnt that Swift wrote this essay in a satiric way to pay attention to the poverty of his country, Ireland. There were many terrible ideas, which are given by Swift.By this way, he discussed Ireland's poverty problem which includes overpopulation, homelessness, starvation. For example, people who have a lot of children would be able to sell or eat them. Also,children would be used to make clothes, new dishes, and leather goods for ladies and gentlemen. These are just a model proposal for his country. In my opinion, it is very effective essay to make sense for rich people who ignore the poverty of country.

The Struggle To Survive

If I were Robinson Crusoe , I tried to educate Friday because Robinson is alone on the island and he wants to communicate with somebody. Before he meets Friday , he just keeps a diary not to forget anything during surviving on the island. Also, he should find a way to go his hometown only with someone who knows the island very well and he must be Friday .I am really impressed by this story because it includes some feelings such as fear, confidence, faith.İn addition, Robinson prays to God to stay alive and reads the bible because of his belief.

Carpe Diem

Three weeks ago we watched a movie '' Dead Poets Society '' only first part in the classroom . Then, I watched its second part on the ınternet . When I finished watching this movie , I liked it very much because loving poetry is emphasized by the English teacher , John Keating  who inspires to his students effectively . Especially, '' Seize the day '' is the most important thing in this movie because it is valid for everyone . You should do whatever you want now because of passing the time . In addition to this, we can not stop the time ,yet we can change our places with it . Moreover , this theme is mentioned in most of movies and poems . For instance, '' To Coy his Mistress based on praising his lover and being with her before passing the time . ''Life is short and death is forever . ''
