35. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
Assignment: Does the success of a communitywhether it is a class, a team, a family, a nation, or any other groupdepend upon peoples willingness to limit their personal interests? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observation.
引文: Young people should have the right to control and direct their own learningthat is, to decide what they want to learn, when, and where. If we take from someone his or her right to decide what to be curious about, we destroy that persons freedom of thought. We say, in effect, you must think about what interests and concerns us, not you.
Adapted from John Holt, The Right to Control Ones Learning
引文: It is not that people dislike being part of a community; it is just that they care about their individual freedoms more. People value neighborliness and social interactionuntil being part of a group requires them to limit their freedom for the larger good of the group. But a community or group cannot function effectively unless people are willing to set aside their personal interests.
Adapted from Warren Johnson, The Future Is Not What It Used To Be
引文: Certainly anyone who insists on condemning all lies should think about what would happen if we could reliably tell when our family, friends, colleagues, and government leaders were deceiving us. It is tempting to think that the world would become a better place without the hand, perhaps there is such a thing as too much honesty.
Adapted from Allison Kornet, The Truth About Lying
引文: Some people claim that each individual is solely responsible for what happens to him or her. But the claim that we ought to take absolute responsibility for the kinds of people we are and the kinds of lives we lead suggests that we have complete control over our lives. We do not. The circumstances of our lives can make it more or less impossible to make certain kinds of choices.
Adapted form Gordon D. Marino, I think You Should Be Responsible; Me, Im not so Sure
36. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
Assignment: Does the truth change depending on how people look at things? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observation.
37. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
Assignment: Does a strong commitment to technological progress cause a society to neglect other values, such as education and the protection of the environment?
