In the darkness, a pinpoint of light becomes visible. Someone has turned on a flashlight. The pin­point grows to the size of the

bulb. Because this is slow motion, only the bulb is bright. Nothing else lights up—yet.
Now the light begins to spread outward from the bulb. It fills a bigger and bigger space. As the light moves forward, it strikes little fog droplets, the ground, a sneaker, a tree, a cat. After each collision, some light bounces off. It is redirected. Some of it reaches a person's eyes. Only then can the light trigger the person's eyes and brain. In slow, stretched-out speech, the person says, "L000000-000000k! Aaaaaaaaaaaa caaaaaa-aaat!"

A to explain how a star produces light

In the article "Handwriting Just Doesn’t Matter," author Anne Trubek presents several debates over the meaning of handwriting. S
PIT_PIT [208]

As for advantages, the article shows that handwriting can promote psychological improvements, optimize the ability to concentrate, and improve writing and reading skills. As for disadvantages, she claims that handwriting is slow, obsolete, and used less and less nowadays. The author concludes that mastery of calligraphy is not important and can be abandoned without major consequences.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The author states that handwriting is something that has become obsolete over time.
  • This is because, smartphones and computers are increasingly modern, the need for the use of handwriting has decreased.
  • Although handwriting has b, the author says that abandoning it will not cause disastrous changes, but will promote the optimization of technological resources.

Although the abandonment of handwriting has advantages and disadvantages, we can confirm that its use has become increasingly rare. Furthermore, current technology allows us to encourage the advantages of not mastering handwriting and combat the disadvantages.

The values of identity and freedom are not unique to particular times and places. As Hughes expresses in "Dream Variations," all
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Explanation:  According to some ideal model, every person would be most useful to society if they could develop their identity without hindrance, and could make a living from it. Such a person would live completely free and have a sense of security, which means freedom. Of course, with such freedom and a fully expressed identity, one must distinguish between the destructive actions that can occur and which are harmful to society.

In order for a society to be free to all and to develop freely the identities of all, then it should work on tolerance above all, as well as on other components, to develop the freedom of all people in society. It is clear that people are different and have different needs, aspirations, therefore different identities, and one society must develop a sense of difference and acceptance of these differences. Other components are learning, reading, cognition of a different system of value, awareness, because when something is known then there is no fear of it, and it is easier to accept even though it is different from what we know. This means that society should enable people with all these components to be accessible to people and even to encourage people to these values, and thus creating a climate of tolerance and the need to constantly meet the new and the unknown. And the key is to emphasise that new and unknown is not scary and threatening, but an opportunity to learn something new that will enrich us and broaden our perspectives, which again contributes to getting to know ourselves better and is a great chance to work on our own identity.

All this is also what we should all do, and of course society as a whole, and I think that is possible if we want to. If nothing else, let's not interfere with all this when one wants to move forward and work on one's identity.
