My favorite film

The student strongly recommends watching this classic film.
My Slideshow
The document lists various words and terms including countries, musicians, shapes, vehicles, instruments, careers, and properties. It also includes a short media bibliography citing the sources of several images downloaded from Flickr between December 4th and 7th, 2009.
Presentation 2
The document provides a synopsis and analysis of a teenage drama/comedy film. It introduces the main character Connor, who moves from Britain to America to study and attempts to hide his nerdy identity to fit in. He lies to make friends and joins a fraternity, but his true self is revealed. In the climax, he saves his ex-girlfriend from a fire and is welcomed back into his social circles. The genre focuses on the character's troubles fitting in and falling in love within the setting of an American university campus and Greek life system.
British film focus group
The document discusses the genre of British drama films, outlining some key conventions including violence, low-key lighting, depictions of British actors, drug and alcohol use, and discrimination. Examples provided include films like Legend, Football Factory, This Is England, Bronson, and Green Street Hooligans. The focus group discusses their opinions on trailers for some of these films and aspects that make the viewers want to see the full movie.
Zombieland
This opening title sequence for the zombie film Zombieland establishes the genre and setting in a nonlinear way. It uses a voiceover narrator to set up the post-apocalyptic world and gory zombie deaths to prepare viewers for the horror elements. The main protagonist is portrayed as an anxious "nerdy" character for comedic effect. The credits are presented in red block letters to parallel the anarchic scenes and add to the apocalyptic tone.
Proposal 1
A group of 5 people go adventuring in the woods but are followed and captured by two men who kill two of the males and one female. The remaining two characters escape. Filming this proposal would require many actors and involve having two men harm others, raising ethical issues about negatively impacting audiences' views of outdoor spaces.
Paradise lost or gained
Google provides many perks and benefits to create a positive work environment for employees, including free haircuts, on-site services like laundry, spas and gyms, and comprehensive health insurance. However, some talented employees still leave due to a lack of recognition and major responsibilities. To better retain top talent, Google needs to focus more on intrinsic motivators like meaningful work and growth opportunities, as described in Herzberg's two-factor theory of motivation.

14.african literature

Paper12,english language teaching
This document discusses silence in second language learning. It defines silence as the lack of sound or speech. The document outlines the stages of language learning, including a pre-production stage where learners enter a "silent period" where they do not attempt to speak.

Romantic Literature
Marianne's decision to marry Colonel Brandon in Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility is the topic of this paper. The paper argues that Marianne's decision is plausible for three reasons: her bitter experience with Willoughby rejecting her led to a realization that Colonel Brandon's unconditional love was better than passionate love; she learned the value of sense over mere sensibility; and there may be gender or generational differences in how plausibly readers view her choice to marry the older Colonel Brandon. The paper asks the reader to consider whether Marianne's decision seems plausible.
