Introduction

My stand is that citizens should never be executed. Executing a citizen amount to a gross violation of ethics and it brings more harm than correction. In the emotional perspective, execution of a citizen leaves a mark that cannot be erased on hearts of persons close to the executed person, it can never heal. Rather than being a corrective means, it turns out as a traumatizing experience to the family members of the executed; it can take a very long time for them to recover and come into terms with the reality. Capital punishment can very effectively be replaced by life imprisonment, which though separates the ...

For Practice

The passage contains both mechanical and grammatical errors. The first sentence should be fragmented to two sentences that read like this: “There are two arguments I am introducing. The first one is that more classes at CSU should be offered online.” The passage also lacks a comma in the last sentence. This sentence would be better if it reads like this: “Sometimes, if you have to take a class at the campus, being able to access it online would be helpful and convenient.” There is also a problem of sprawling sentence evident in the following sentence: “A larger selection of online classes ...

Introduction

Often, when murders commit their heinous crimes, they do not consider that the circumstances could turn around, making them the victims. They often feel secure and in a safe position to continue with their activities. When brought before a court of law and convicted for their crimes, they often try to plead their case by making the authorities feel guilty for passing the sentence on them. This is what happened with Robert Lee Willie, who, after being convicted for execution in a Louisiana state prison, admitted that killing is wrong whether done by an individual or by the state. Other murders such ...

Janet Byron Anderson, the author of The Vocabula Review, discusses the merits and demerits of using a semi-colon in literature.

According to myth, the mermaid lures sailors with lovely songs, which makes them forget what they are doing and jump off the deck only to drown. Similarly, the semicolon tends to have comparable psychological influence, whereby a writer feels the urge to use it but fears that ...

For my discourse analysis, I have chosen the Lapse for Words Transcript since I found it interesting and I believe I can discuss many things through it. It was an interesting conversation since it does happen almost everyday – people dating and breaking over the phone, which of course, since two people conversing couldn’t see each other (speaker and the listener), would imply different things to each other.

“This means, for example, that there is considerable lack of consistency in naming(labeling), and that often the beginning and end points of different periods only partially overlap”( Sanabria, 53).
This is a description of the challenges in archeology due to the lack of a common approach in archeology and the failure to adopt common terminologies that can be used universally. The lack of consistency is also occasioned by the fact that archeology examines a process of change over a period of time and not a single event.

In this paper, Sung-young Lee creates a very compelling analysis of minimalism that is full of facts and clear arguments, but there are quite a few things that could be improved upon. For one, there are quite a few spelling and grammar errors in the text – ‘quite’ instead of ‘quiet’, mixing tenses in mid-sentence, and even potentially making up some words, such as ‘dynamicity’ and ‘minised’ (perhaps they meant to say ‘minimized’). The sentences, for the most part, are clunky and poorly formed, which can make it a little difficult to read and comprehend.

This is a shame, because this paper has fairly strong and ...
