Review the beginning of this article about Chinese factory workers, which you read for this lesson. What Does Your Cell Phone Co

st (the Average Chinese Worker)? In most parts of the United States, daily life is dominated by wireless Internet technology and the glow of video screens. Many Americans find it hard to imagine going an entire day without texting someone on our cell phones, listening to music on our iPods, or watching a movie or television show on our widescreen HDTVs. To some of us, electronic devices feel as necessary to our existence as air and food. Yet how many of us understand or appreciate the lives that are spent manufacturing these “essential” goods? Indeed, few Americans would be willing to trade places with the workers who build the electronics we use every day, all day. What is the FIRST indication of the author's position on cheap Chinese labor?

Answer:

The first indication is in the title. "What does your cell phone cost the average Chinese worker?"

Explanation:. The title implies that there is a cost,-- not necessarily the money- but the quality of life of workers in factories where conditions may be unhealthy, the hours long, and the work tedious.

The next hint is that "few American workers would be willing to trade places."

What is the purpose of this story?
belka [17]

This is for “the tell-tales heart”

Answer: I have briefly read the book but here is my answer:

Explanation:I think that it is because the old mans heart beats were the reason of the narrators breakdown. They were pressuring the narrator to tell the truth. It was almost as if the old man was still alive persuading the narrator to tell the truth, but the old man didn’t need to do that. He only needed the narrators anxiety issues to do that. Between the eye, the anxiety, the heart beat, even the police, the narrator felt trapped in his own web that has been weaved every time be even looked at the old man. This story is about anxiety, remorse, sadness, guilt. The old man didn’t need to tell on the narrator. The narrator did that himself. In conclusion, it’s called “the tell-tales heart” because it was the heart that told on the narrator to the police, at least not directly. When we think of tell-tale, we think of someone who tells on people and exposes them, that is exactly what the heart did, but he did it in a way that would guilt and posses the narrator to do it himself. The purpose of the story is that no matter how much you try to run away, it will always catch up to you, whether it’s guilt, your past, your enemies. At one point you have to face it, before it’s too late.

Hope this helps!
