LOTS OF POINTS Write one paragraph about Creon being guilty of hubris. (from the play Antigone)

English

koban [17]3 years ago

It is easy to spot Antigone’s flaw in the character of an antagonist one believes to be dead wrong. Her hubris is self-centeredness, but it is a subtle flaw. She has indeed discovered a great truth.

Her story reminds us, however, of how difficult it is to recognize hubris in our heroes or in ourselves. Upon the discovery of a certain truth, there is a great temptation to believe one has access to all truth. To say it in traditional religious terms, it is a weakness of human beings to believe that, once they have access to one of God’s truths, they know the full mind of God.

Creon is also guilty of hubris, the same kind of self-certainty. The difference between them is that Creon is able to see his error.

Children who read tend to do better at school and professionally. The rise in technology means increased demands for higher literacy and consequences are grievous for those who fall short, according to "Preventing Reading Difficulties in Young Children."

Critical Thinking
The growth of digital media as a source of information has reduced the ability of children to critically evaluate the information they are exposed to, says Professor Patricia Greenfield, director of the Children's Digital Media Center at UCLA. Critical thinking skills are crucial in helping students achieve more than a cursory understanding of any topic and helps them form their own opinions. Reading requires a person to think and process information in a way that watching television may not. The more you read, the deeper your understanding becomes of what you are reading and its application. Greenfield tells parents to encourage their children to read and should read to their children. Developing writing skills can help you strengthen your ability to make reasoned arguments on a variety of subjects, which is useful in school and on the job.

Improved Communication Skills
Improving your reading and writing skills also goes hand in hand with developing your communication skills. The more you read and write, the more you broaden your vocabulary and are able to articulate concepts accurately and more effectively to others. Increasing your ability to communicate also helps make you a better worker or student.

More Opportunities
Studies show that people with advanced reading and writing skills have more opportunities in school and professionally than those who do not develop these skills. Children who are avid readers will often find school more appealing. Literary readers are more likely "to engage in positive civic and individual activities--such as volunteering, attending sports or cultural events, and exercising" than non-readers, according to the NEA study.
