Answer:

The narrator's intention for "unnaming" the animals is:  to become one with nature and have equality rather than showing domination over the creatures by labeling them with a name.

Explanation:

In author Ursula K. Le Guin's short story "She Unnames Them" the narrator is Eve, the first woman created by God according to the Bible. As we know, according to the book of Genesis, Adam named the animals God created to be his companions. In the story, however, Eve realizes the need to take those names back. She even gives back her own name. Her purpose for doing that is to free herself and the animals of the labels that distinguish them. By remaining unnamed, they become the same. There is nothing separating their existence and sense of self any longer:

<em>They seemed far closer than when their names had stood between myself and them like a clear barrier: so close that my fear of them and their fear of me became one same fear. And the attraction that many of us felt, the desire to feel or rub or caress one another’s scales or skin or feathers or fur, taste one another’s blood or flesh, keep one another warm -- that attraction was now all one with the fear, and the hunter could not be told from the hunted, nor the eater from the food. </em>

According to a different source, this question refers to the Brown v. Board of Education decision. In this case, the court issued a unanimous decision in favor of the Brown family. This decision was written by Chief Justice Earl Warren.

I would argue that Warren's rhetoric is persuasive and authoritative. He very clearly explains the reasons why the Court reached this decision. This conveys a feeling of knowledge and clarity. The line that I find most moving is:

<em>"To separate [black children] from others of similar age and qualifications solely because of their race generates a feeling of inferiority as to their status in the community that may affect their hearts and minds in a way unlikely to ever be undone."</em>

I find this line to be very powerful because it gets to the source of the problem. By explaining how black children might feel, it encourages people to rethink segregation. It also supports the idea that all people are equally valuable, regardless of their color.

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Here are some ideas

Explanation:

For this type of work, keep in mind it isn't a choice that will affect you in any way. Here are some points for each side of the debate:

DISAGREE

  • Citizens should have a right to privacy.
  • Secretive government actions can result in trust in our society to weaken.
  • If spying through technology such as webcams, the wrong person could gain access.

AGREE

  • Spying on citizens planning on committing a crime through phone calls could lead to preventing a robbery, murder, or even a terrorist attack.
  • The safety of thousands of people could be kept by simply overhearing a conversation.
