As bad as “targeting uninformed customers” may sound, we must understand it is the best and, in some cases, the only strategy for most big businesses to survive. And it is not necessarily a crime. As consumers, we wouldn't like to be deceived into buying something that will turn out to be a problem, be it health related or not. What we fail to understand, however, is that we are not merely a victim when that happens, especially nowadays.
Selling fatty fast foods or sugary drinks such as the famous Coke is accused by many of being an ethical way of making a living. But is it the business’s fault or is the customer the one to blame? Coca-Cola worked hard for several years to convince people it was a safe and healthy drink. It was clearly trying to keep consumers uninformed for its own benefit and profit. However, its effort was not successful as we live in an era in which access to all kinds information is practically guaranteed. We can all know how harmful Coke is. Yet, there are people who choose to consume it on a daily basis. Are they less informed? Maybe. Is it the company's fault? Certainly not.
A Harvard study shows that well-informed customers tend to choose store-brand products instead of national – more expensive - ones. Being well-informed as a client not only helps you save money, but also leads you to choose better, healthier options. And information is available everywhere. We are a very spoiled generation when it comes to that. Still, looking it up is the customers’ responsibility, whether we like it or not.
We may dream of this ideal world where companies and manufacturers look out for us. A world in which they don’t use any harmful ingredients, don’t charge scandalous prices, don’t try to convince us into buying something we don’t need. But that is not the world we live in. A lot has changed for better and companies do have a responsibility over their clients, rules to follow so that they won’t harm us too much. Their goal, however, is still to profit. Companies invest a great deal in propaganda to sell an illusion. They want to convince the consumer that, by purchasing their product, they will be healthier, smarter, more attractive.
Therefore, we should take it as our mission to inform ourselves. By doing so, we can protect ourselves from being harmed directly or indirectly by unhealthy or unsafe products. If we know how bad something is, we can demand its improvement. By becoming well informed, we take power into our hands, choose better, and force businesses to adapt to our needs and demands, and not the other way around.
Frederick Douglass was born into slavery sometime in 1817 or 1818. Like many slaves, he is unsure of his exact date of birth. Douglass is separated from his mother, Harriet Bailey, soon after he is born. His father is most likely their white master, Captain Anthony. Captain Anthony is the clerk of a rich man named Colonel Lloyd. Lloyd owns hundreds of slaves, who call his large, central plantation the “Great House Farm.” Life on any of Lloyd’s plantations, like that on many Southern plantations, is brutal. Slaves are overworked and exhausted, receive little food, few articles of clothing, and no beds. Those who break rules—and even those who do not—are beaten or whipped, and sometimes even shot by the plantation overseers, the cruelest of which are Mr. Severe and Mr. Austin Gore.
Douglass’s life on this plantation is not as hard as that of most of the other slaves. Being a child, he serves in the household instead of in the fields. At the age of seven, he is given to Captain Anthony’s son‑in‑law’s brother, Hugh Auld, who lives in Baltimore. In Baltimore, Douglass enjoys a relatively freer life. In general, city slave-owners are more conscious of appearing cruel or neglectful toward their slaves in front of their non‑slaveowning neighbors.
Sophia Auld, Hugh’s wife, has never had slaves before, and therefore she is surprisingly kind to Douglass at first. She even begins to teach Douglass to read, until her husband orders her to stop, saying that education makes slaves unmanageable. Eventually, Sophia succumbs to the mentality of slaveowning and loses her natural kindliness. Though Sophia and Hugh Auld become crueler toward him, Douglass still likes Baltimore and is able to teach himself to read with the help of local boys. As he learns to read and write, Douglass becomes conscious of the evils of slavery and of the existence of the abolitionist, or antisla-very, movement. He resolves to escape to the North eventually.
After the deaths of Captain Anthony and his remaining heirs, Douglass is taken back to serve Thomas Auld, Captain Anthony’s son‑in‑law. Auld is a mean man made harsher by his false religious piety. Auld considers Douglass unmanageable, so Auld rents him for one year to Edward Covey, a man known for “breaking” slaves. Covey manages, in the first six months, to work and whip all the spirit out of Douglass. Douglass becomes a brutish man, no longer interested in reading or freedom, capable only of resting from his injuries and exhaustion. The turning point comes when Douglass resolves to fight back against Covey. The two men have a two‑hour fight, after which Covey never touches Douglass again.
His year with Covey over, Douglass is next rented to William Freeland for two years. Though Freeland is a milder, fairer man, Douglass’s will to escape is nonetheless renewed. At Freeland’s, Douglass begins edu-cating his fellow slaves in a Sabbath school at the homes of free blacks. Despite the threat of punishment and violence they face, many slaves from neighboring farms come to Douglass and work diligently to learn. At Freeland’s, Douglass also forms a plan of escape with three fellow slaves with whom he is close. Someone betrays their plan to Freeland, however, and Douglass and the others are taken to jail. Thomas Auld then sends Douglass back to Baltimore with Hugh Auld, to learn the trade of ship caulking.
In Baltimore’s trade industry, Douglass runs up against strained race relations. White workers have been working alongside free black workers, but the whites have begun to fear that the increasing numbers of free blacks will take their jobs. Though only an apprentice and still a slave, Douglass encounters violent tactics of intimidation from his white coworkers and is forced to switch shipyards. In his new apprenticeship, Douglass quickly learns the trade of caulking and soon earns the highest wages possible, always turning them over to Hugh Auld.
Eventually, Douglass receives permission from Hugh Auld to hire out his extra time. He saves money bit by bit and eventually makes his escape to New York. Douglass refrains from describing the details of his escape in order to protect the safety of future slaves who may attempt the journey. In New York, Douglass fears recapture and changes his name from Bailey to Douglass. Soon after, he marries Anna Murray, a free woman he met while in Baltimore. They move north to Massachusetts, where Douglass becomes deeply engaged with the abolitionist movement as both a writer and an orator.
Answer:
B. The city had not had a major attack and expected one.
Explanation:
First published in 1946, John Hersey's "Hiroshima" tells the story of six survivors of the atomic bomb atack on the city.
All of the survivors spoke about their life before and after bombing, as well as about their thoughts prior to and during the blast.
Also, it is stated that people expected something to happen, because there had been air-rad warnings every day for several weeks, but no bombing, so the people anticipated something big preparing for their city, since all nearby cities have already been severly bombarded.
This can be best seen in the story of the Reverend Mr. Tanimoto.
