Answer:
C. As a stickler about statistics, I was disturbed by Mr. Schlosser's
cavalier manipulation of data, which produced some startling -
and, frankly, unbelievable
"facts."
Answer:
Many people have a hard time showing courage they are afraid of sticking out and being humiliated. Sometimes, when people need to speak out against things in life, such as bullying, they don't want to get hurt or laughed. Where people are socially is a huge part of life and our well-being today, so often others are forcing themselves to stay quiet and out of situations when they could actually be doing a lot to help them.
Explanation:
(sorry if it was kinda short, but all you have to do is elaborate more on the bullying or just leave it at that!)
Each meeting begins with a quote by Thoreau.
"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life."
Definition: these are slogans that are 1 or 2 minutes long (if a TV or radio ad) or large single page posters that try to influence people about social issues. They are free (without cost). I think they are almost always government initiated.
Examples:
No Kid Hungry narrated by Jeff Bridges.
Stop Cyber Bullying
Save Lives: Stop Red Light running.
Don't Drink and Drive
They are effective because:
1. They are free. They can be entered into the media many times. Not only that but they reach across the country because many radio / TV stations are networked.
2. They can be like chain letters. They can cause people to talk about the issues.
3. Organizations are built around these slogans. Do you have MADD in the United States? That stands for Mothers Against Drunk Drivers. Their slogan is Don't Drink and Drive. It's very well known up here. Mothers who are against Drunk Driving are very adamant and very outspoken. They are also single minded.
4. They are effective because they are meant to make you feel guilty if you don't agree with the slogan. Imagine standing up to a mother who has lost a child and saying "It's not so bad. There are worse things. No damage no harm done."
