We can infer that the death of Confucius’ son, Carp is ironic, he suffered an early death when the symbolism of the carp fish is longevity, because carps can get very old, it also represents the dragons due to big scales on the body of a carp. According to the meaning of the carp Confucius’ son, Carp, should have a long live which did not happen.

Fantom [35]

The question wants to analyze your reading and writing skills and for that reason, I cannot write the article for you, but I will show you how to write it.

An op-ed piece is an article that shows your opinion on a particular topic. For this, you must reflect on the subject of morality versus science and create your opinion about it.

This opinion must be justified by evidence, which must be found in articles that analyze and deal with this subject in a coherent and reliable way. You should research and read these articles.

After that, you can create your opinion.

<h3>Steps to create an essay</h3>
  • Introduction: Introduce the subject that will be addressed in the essay and show your opinion on the subject.

  • Body: Write at least two paragraphs. In the first paragraph, you will show evidence that proves your opinion and makes it stronger and more credible. In the second paragraph, you will associate your opinion with the book "Frankenstein" and show how this subject is approached in that book.

  • Conclusion: Summarize all the information presented, reinforce your opinion and show how important this debate is for society.
