( I don't agree with any of these things, I'm just doing random steorytpes! Please don't report me!)

They do NOT help organize the world. They can be limiting and harmful, for example, somone could say:

"All white people are slave masters." Or "All Black people are slaves" Or "All mexicans are poor" Or "All asians are racist" "Whites are smarter than anyone else" "Asians cant get bad grades" Or "Black people always dance" "Native americans are quiet and shy" "Indians are loud" "Arabs are annoying, they always eat to much" "Koreans make to much food" "Muslims are terrosits" "Muslims kill innocent people"

"Italians are gay" "Asians have very small eyes"

And also, no one group of people is the excact same. We have different intrests, different beleifs, sure we agree on one thing, but we're still seperate people.

None of those are true. They are offensive and they are limiting how are they limiting?

well, let me explain.  A:"So are you saying only Asians can get good grades?" B:"No, not excatly.. its a steorytype. But its not likely for you to get goodgrades, because you aren't asian."

I would never want to be the other person in that convo.

How can it be harmful:

A:"All black people have big lips and they love to dance. Take Janet for example."

B:"Thats not true!"

A:"it is. your just a steorytipical black person." These are all awful things to say. Janet would be very, very hurt.

( I don't agree with any of these things, I'm just doing random steorytpes! Please don't report me! Also, I'm a black muslim :) )

How does this excerpt from the novel Hatchet support the theme of never giving up? Write a paragraph with a claim, evidence, and
krok68 [10]

Answer:

This memory moment shows that he never gives up. I know this because in the event it states "He had been looking for feathers, for the color of the bird, for a bird sitting there. He had to look for the outline instead, had to see the shape instead of the feathers or color, had to train his eyes to see the shape..." My evidence supports my claim because the quote that I used explained how he was focusing on the wrong detail and he had to find this detail by trying over and over again to find the birds which support the theme of brian not giving up and staying determined.

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

June 2nd

Today when I was going to school, I saw some kids bullying a defenseless kitten. It was alone and desperately crying for its mother. The kids were scaring it, jumping near it, or passing it through the air from one kid to the other. I got mad and stepped in front of the kitten, and in an angry tone, I told them to leave the kitten alone. As I was older than them, they immediately obeyed me. When I came back from school, I picked it. Now it lives with me.

Explanation:

In a diary entry, a person writes about an experience,  feelings, things that he or she likes or dislikes, goals, reflections, and problems. It usually has a date. The entries can be daily or sporadically, every person has a different way to use a diary, and they are not to share with other people.

As regards the language, it is informal. The entry can be directed to the diary, starting with dear diary, as if it was a letter, or it can be a narrative where the person writes about an experience or thoughts.
