In “America Needs Its Nerds,” by L. Fridman, addresses an issue that still exists in today's society: that students perceived as intelligent are ridiculed. In his exhortation Leonid argued that the curious and smart scholars need not to be ashamed of their intellect, and that society needs to change their attitude towards these types of people because it comes off as pessimistic. The writer combats these views with rhetoric, parallelism, and strategic diction. Early in the writing, the author writes “intellectually curious and academically serious,” which is a use of parallelism since the words are similar in its pronunciation and grammatically overall. He uses this rhetoric again in lines 20 thru 23, as he examines the stereotyping students face and are forced into, for being serious about their academics. He Mr. Firdman uses dition throughout his essay to more than likely suggest that he is or has been considered a nerd as well. His very descriptive word structure is evident throughout, with lines 20 thru 32 containing connotations and imagery to evoke pathos in the audience with words such as ‘grave’ and ‘haunt’.

Based on the excerpt from Robert Frost’s poem “Mending Wall”, the speaker thinks his neighbor is<em> stubborn (option A)</em>. Someone is stubborn when they are determinate to nor change their attitude on something when it refers to good arguments or reasons to do so. His neighbor continues on repairing the wall that separates them and says that “Good fences make good neighbors.” In the end, the poem’s teaching is that a wall needs to be preserved between properties. This is to safeguard that the personal identity and individuality of the neighbors, specifically as farmers are preserved.

Answer:

Why is social development important during adolescence?

As adolescents strive for more independence and autonomy during this time, different aspects of parenting become more salient. For example, parents' distal supervision and monitoring become more important as adolescents spend more time away from parents and in the presence of peers.

What are some ways in which social development can positively or negatively affect a teenager?

Adolescent development is characterized by biological, cognitive, and social changes. Social changes are particularly notable as adolescents become more autonomous from their parents, spend more time with peers, and begin exploring romantic relationships and sexuality.

There is evidence that problems with peer relationships, peer rejection, bullying, and loneliness are risk factors for the development of affective conditions such as depression in adolescence.
