"Where I Lived, and What I lived For"Henry David Thoreau
Questions on Rhetoric and style
1. In the first paragraph, what does Thoreau declare as his higher purpose?
I believe that Thoreau sees his higher purpose in life as to live life naturally, to get every breathe out of it, to live truly and happily and understand
how it really is that life works. One would say Thoreau focuses on "Spartan–like" lifestyle, mentioned by the author in paragraph 1, however, later on
the author, Thoreau mentions God and how one should "glorify and enjoy him forever". I believe that the author is contradicting himself starting from
paragraph 1. The main purpose in authors life is to...show more content...
The author is viewed as if he is unsure of his own ideas. The attitude of the text, whenever the author asks rhetorical questions is interrogative. Another
example of a repetition in the specific writing can be seen in paragraph 6. When the author constantly repeats "let" or "let us". By using these
repetitions the author is appealing to pathos by involving the audience into the text and making the reader be part of the argument.
7. What paradox does Thoreau develop concerning the railroad in paragraph 2?
In paragraph 2, the author initially states that railroads are supposed to be built by us, men, however, later on Thoreau states "We do not ride on the
railroads, it rides upon us." This statement seemed contradictory to me, which shows the use of paradox in this segment of the writing.
8. Paragraph 3 begins with a rhetorical question. How effectively does the rest of the paragraph answer it?
If I understood the reading correctly, the author does not quite answer his rhetorical question throughout the rest of the paragraph. As a matter of fact,
he shifts into talking about people view life, and their actions in specific cases. However, a rhetorical question is the one that does not expect an
answer. This paragraph, as the rest of the writing, seemed contradictory and paradoxical. Sentences are compound – complex with a use of colons.

The Country of Spain Essays
Spain
The fascinating and beautiful country of Spain is one of the largest countries in Europe. The history that Spain has had has left great stories to tell and

population of forty million plus people, but almost one–third of the nation's population is foreigners that reside in its territory. One of the most
important facts about Spain is that its economy is one of the largest in the world. Spain is currently in a recession, with low employment rates and
poverty. Sports and games are a very important and popular pastime of Spain. The Spaniards have traditional and regional games,...show more content...

the Tour of France and the Tour of Italy. Several Spanish cycling athletes have won the world famous cycling event, the Tour of France.
The regional pastime of the running of the bulls in Pamplona is an exciting tradition that involves a group of bulls that are lets loose in the streets of
Pamplona. The main purpose of the run is to transport the bulls from the corrals into the bullrings, where they will be killed. This run takes place for
seven days in San Fermin, Pamplona in Spain. It started in the 14th century. Today the running of the bulls attracts many tourists from around the
world that like to participate. Many participate by joining the bulls, and running along side of them. This is very dangerous, many are injured and
some are even killed. Others participate by dressing the part and cheering. Runners wear the traditional outfit of a white shirt and pants. Some have a
red scarf or handkerchief, some wear red belts. Runners also have with them a newspaper to draw attention away from the bulls just in case.

working days. The Spaniards call for eating well throughout the day. The eating hours in Spain are loosely defined and restaurants

King Of Spain Essay
"The independence of the Crown, its political neutrality and its wish to embrace and reconcile the different ideological standpoints to enable it to
contribute to the stability of our political system, facilitating a balance with the other constitutional and territorial bodies, promoting the orderly
functioning of the State and providing a channel for cohesion among Spaniards." His Majesty King Felipe VI Madrid, 19.6.2014. This is the moral that
the spanish monarchy believes in. Spanish royalty has dated way back and has influenced Europe in many ways. Ihe Monarchy in its different
conceptions and modes, has been the widespread form of government and is the institution holding the utmost political power in Spain. The political and
institutional history of Spain is, in part, the history of its Monarchy and its kings and queens. The specific titles used by the Kings of Spain are very
important to the spanish culture. Together with the short title – King of Spain or of the Spains, which makes summary reference to the Monarchy's
place of origin, the grand or long title was used officially in each reign up until the 19th century. Said long title explicitly mentioned the territories and
titles with which the Spanish monarch reigned, with which his ancestors had reigned or over which he was considered to have legitimate rights. Some
important kings in history were Sancho III the Older, King of Navarre, in the 11th century brought together under his throne a substantial part of

Reflection About Spain
Much like a majority of people, I have a bucket–list of places, spanning the globe, I want to go. From movies and pictures, I have seen and research I
have done about Spain, it seems like a beautiful place with a vibrant past and rich culture. On this particular trip to Spain, students are offered the
wonderful opportunity to explore the capital, one of the biggest and most well–known cities, Madrid. When my Spanish professor compared Madrid to
New York, it gave me flashbacks to my freshman year of high school when I visited New York on a choir trip. The modern empires growing with hints
of history throughout the city, it was an interesting sight. I am interested in exploring Madrid and seeing some of the similarities that she spoke of,

As nursing is my major, my advisor warned me that I have a long line of hard work to do in order to graduate in four years with all the necessary
credits to fulfill both aspects of my educational goals. When also mentioning my interests in studying abroad, my advisor reiterated that more work
may be involved. By taking Intermediate Spanish now as a first semester freshman, I have started this process, but I know it will take time and
dedication. The classes I would take in Spain would help me achieve this goal of minoring by providing me with the opportunity to take Spanish credits
that would count toward my minor, therefore allowing me to combine my academic interests and still not overwork my educational schedule.
Professionally, I want to combine these academic interests and be a nurse that creates heartfelt relationships with patients. To do this requires
compassion and understanding. One step in this direction is the ability to converse with patients and have them feel completely safe and secure in the
information that they are telling me. With an interpreter in a private medical setting, emotion, intimacy, and trust have the possibility to get lost in the
brain of the middle person. Not only is language a barrier when caring for a patient, but also culture and beliefs. In today's America people come from
all over the world and have diverse backgrounds, I think it is important for people to respect one another's opinions and
