What makes meaningful work the key concept for understanding Gladwell's point in both "Rice Paddies & Math Tests" as well as

"Marita's Bargain"?
English
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago

What makes these two essays significant is the concept that success in any activity comes from the dedication and stimulation people receive.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Gladwell focuses on the idea that no one becomes successful without making an effort and without receiving encouragement from the people around them.
  • That's because in "Rice Paddies & Math Tests," the author shows how Chinese children are more efficient at math than American children, because of the stimulation they receive.
  • This is because rice plantations in China encourage children to understand important mathematical concepts, which make them very efficient mathematically.
  • American children do not have this kind of stimulation and therefore take longer to understand mathematical concepts.
  • In "Marita's Bargain," the author shows how dedication and willpower are essential to being a successful person.
  • He presents this theme, showing how students from lower social classes need to dedicate themselves a lot to overcome the factors that hinder their academic and professional lives.

With this, we can see how the author shows that there are a series of factors that help people to be efficient and successful. These actors are not always easy to reach, but they are essential to promote an individual.

The right option is They outline reasons that support the claim that "it becomes necessary... to dissolve the political bands" with England. According to Thomas Jefferson, all men are born with the rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. The state of things back then, with the mentioned political bands with England, were preventing the American colonies to achieve or fully enjoy such rights. First off, governments are instituted from the consent of the governed people; this is not possible under a king (kings, and particularly kings from European empires such as France and England, used to have absolute power and were despots). Then, in order to establish a new government which will set rules and regulations for the governed ones to abide by on the pretense that such regulations and rules aim at protecting and benefitting them (which is what national Constitutions are for), the people has a right to throw off a regime threatening their independent lives, liberties and pursuit of happiness. Lastly, it is stated that the present King of Great Britain does not respect the rights or self-determination of people living in any of the initial Thirteen United States of America and, according to Jefferson, seeks the establishment of an absolute Tyranny. All the above reasons led to the necessity of cutting bonds from Great Britain.
