Ebola questions and answers

1.The CDC wants to make hospitals Ebola-ready in a presumption .

2.  The solutions she offers are expanding capacity at our nation's four bio-containment hospitals. This will treat Ebola patients without having the virus spread from the patients to the doctors or anyone in the hospital.

3.Sean Kaufman called them "absolutely irresponsible and dead wrong" which he refered to the CDC's guidelines for protective gear for Ebola because alot of skin was showing.

4. Michael Burgess pointed out the difference of protective suits from Africa and the ones the CDC issued for nurses and doctors. The Africa suit is more protective then the CDC which shows more skin.

5.  Ms. McCaughey concludes her commentary by recommending: “The best Ebola strategy is to protect our local hospitals, health-care workers and patients by relying on the nation’s bio-containment facilities. That’s what they were built for? I agree with Ms. McCaughey. Ebola doesn't have a cure so we should  keep the ones that are heathy safe from Ebola.

Yes they agree that local hospitals and other community places should be protect ed so Ebola it doesn't expand of Ebola to everyone.

Does Gym Help Students Perform Better in All Their Classes?

          Many student think P.E. it is a waste of time and ask themself why do we need P.E. Here's why physical  education  makes you who you are. It gives you skills  toward a more heathy life. It provide exercise, Coordination and flexibility, Endorphin Production and socialization. 
         Physical education  provides exercise  for kids and most importantly it keeps kids that don't do any physical activity  after school. Not doing any exercise is a reason why the United states is one of the fattest country in the world and I think P.E can help. It improves Coordination  and  Flexibility with the games like basketball, football and doing splits or other tricks. According to the national association of sport and Physical Education  these skills give the student self-esteem.
        Another thing that is not expected is that one another result of physical education is Endorphin Production. Endorphin Production is a gas in the brain that improve mood and outlook. Kids who engage in the physical activity release Endorphin and they go to class cheerful and relax ready to learn.A representative study, presented in May at the American College of Sports Medicine, found that fourth- and fifth-grade students who ran around and otherwise exercised vigorously for at least 10 minutes before a math test scored higher than children who had sat quietly before the exam.        
        Finally physical education provide kids a chance to interact with each other. It not only give kids time to interact but an atmosphere where they learn about teamwork, sportsmanship and also an competitive atmosphere that might cause fights or discussions but a good teacher may teach them how to resolve this in a responsible manner.
        P.E. might not be challenging nor something we need during our teen years but we don't give it a chance many complain about P.E and forget to have fun. P.E actually makes me more alert when I go to class. Physical  education is more then just an class you have to take.

Essay: The Joy Luck Club

Susana Vazquez

December 13, 2014

Period 3          

Chinese-American superstition

Many new generations have to apply two cultures in their lives. In The Joy Luck Club both Chinese and American superstition drive the characters’ thoughts and choices. Superstition can make the mothers seem strange and outmoded to their daughters, but it also makes them aware of their deep spiritual inheritance. The two generation seemed more separated by the superstition of both cultures but really they just understand each other more.

Both mothers and daughters believe in spirits and in reading signs, although the daughters can be reluctant to accept what they see. For example didn’t see what was wrong with her marriage. The mothers want their daughters to have all the privileges they could not and they try to teach them about Chinese customs and beliefs. As Chinese –Americans, they reflected most strongly in their relationships with men. Ted, Harold, and especially Rich, represent the American part of their wives, which for the mothers seems frighteningly disconnected from Chinese thinking. This drives Daughter and mother apart. For example when Waverly wants to marry Rich Schields she is scared to tell her because she criticizes everything. However this caused Waverly speak up and she said how she felt. 

            Mothers think it’s necessary to teach their daughters superstition, because they think their daughters are naturally blind to the spiritual world. It an example of this quote “What we don't understand we can make mean anything,” by Chuck Palahniuk.  My mother is the same she wants me to know about Mexico and America.

Superstition also makes them feel helpless; Rose has the premonition that Bing will die but cannot do anything to stop it. In the same way, Lena sees her marriage falling apart but feels helpless to prevent it. In the end, the daughters' connect to their mothers through the ghosts of their ancestors. For example, she meets her sisters and realizes that she has been connected to her Chinese heritage all along in spirit, even if not in her actions. When Jing-mei and her sisters look at the Polaroid, they see themselves appear like ghosts out of the mist to become the striking image of Suyuan. At the end of The joy luck club, Jing-mei and her sisters, realizes they were just as much a part of her mother's spirit as of her flesh. Furthermore, Jing-mei is the only one who can save her mother from becoming a ghost, by learning from her strength and keeping her heritage alive.

            Different superstition causes misunderstanding between generations. Therefore leads to separation. In joy luck club the mothers and daughter were distanced, they would show how they felt and it hurts the daughter-mother relationship.  It might seem as superstition separated the mothers’ from their daughters’ it actually helped them become closer.

The color purple

Part one: In The Color Purple, Celie was 14 years old and she was giving birth which was her fathers child also. One day a man came and said he wanted to marry Nettie, Celie sister. Her dad refused but he gave Celie away instead of Nettie. Nettie escaped from house and wanted to stay with Celie. Everything was going great until he wanted to make a move on her and she defended herself. She was thrown out of the house, and never seen again by Celie. everyone grew up happy, the oldest kid got married. He then had problem with his wife. His wife went to jail for hitting the major and cussing the mayor's wife. Celie's husband brought a visitor which was his old lover, Shug Avery. At first she was mean and demanding, but it at she was getting married.later changed.She left and when she return, she announced that she was getting married. Celie and the Shug Avery found the cards that were from her sister, all of them. That's when she made the decision of going away and also she was able to see her sister and her mom.

part two: the author chose to write about this topic to inform people how life was for African American, even when they were with their own raise. So we can learn that it's wrong to not do and try to stop it.

Part three: The protagonist is dynamic because she was innocent, afraid and quiet, at the end she was strong enough to stand up for herself, she wasn't afraid anymore.She was still generous and a women with morals. She is also a round character because she shows lots of emotion, and the book is based on her life. Another major character would be Avery because she was almost always there by Celie's side and helped her still the end.

Part four: In the book The Color purple, the symbol is obvious, it purple. It relate to the whole story because it's hard not to notice the color purple, purple makes everything stand out, it does everything to get noticed, that what people in the world try to do. Celie, Nettie, and many women who were fighting everyday of their lives to stay alive.They were fighting to get noticed, that they are not animals you can sale, trade, or give away. Women are important why are they not treated like they are suppose to, lik a person who works hard everyday of their lives.

Part Five:My fiend read it, and she read good books so i decided to try it. As I read the title it didn't seem interesting so I read the back summery, the idea that it was a story of a African American women, I wanted to know the story. I wanted to know if Celie ever going to see her sister Nettie, her son and her daughter. I wondered if she was going to have a happy ending.in other words, what kept me reading was the ending, I wanted to know.

Part six: I can kind of relate my life to Celie's life in the story. As in the book men think they have the right to get a women and treat them like trash. In my life my dad doesn't do that but he is very bossy and get's really mad although he doesn't hit my mom he yells at her and say's mean things.

Part seven:The idea that i will expect to remember would be "purple only want to be noticed." I will remember this to be able to understand why people do what they do. I think this is important in everyday life, to see not from there were but from the person that's doing the action. "I had to fight my dad, my brothers to have the upper hand" This means she fought her life to not get hit and to be noticed that she wasn't going to be treated like she was ever again.
