In my opinion, it is true because McCandless got ready for the trip by packing elementary things, opposed to the things we pack nowadays where technology absorbs much of our attention and time.


Through this quote, the author implies that today's society has limited our sense of freedom and adventure due to the increased use of technological devices which have become the new way to enjoy and be encased in a virtual world at the same time. In the past, children enjoyed more freedom and used to engage in more fun and adventurous games, rather than virtual ones as it happens at present time.

Write a thesis related to the following question:
mariarad [96]

Answer:

People should be held accountable for life or death situations that they had substantial influence in or control over.

Explanation:

Your question is rather vague and not based upon any sort of book so I decided to give you a general statement --- heads start on your thesis. Life can be very surprising and sometimes events that happen are unstoppable. But clearly in every circumstance where an individual has affected something they should be held accountable for the outcome of their actions. Hope this helps.
