I was wondering is high school really any better than homeschool? Everyone builds it up to be so awesome, I'm not sure if it really is though....

I have to write an essay that is similar to Jonathan Swift's "a modest proposal". In Swift's version, he proposes that in order to solve the poverty and food shortage in Ireland, most of the babies of poor people should be eaten. He makes a formal argument in the rhetorical style. It is highly satirical, and he does not belive what he writes.
I want to do the same thing with Global warming. (I Do not believe my following proposal, it is for a paper) My "modestly inconvenient proposal" is this: (in a nutshell) slaughter everyone in Africa, Asia, South America, and the middle east. Level their cities. Plant trees where human civilization once stood. I don't believe in this AT ALL, it is just for a paper. Anyway, I was wondering if someone could get me a rough estimate of
a) how much the temperature of the earth would decrease if the above act was carries out and
b) by how much the oxygen concentration on the world would increase.

the film makes a very stylistic use of color. comment on the colors worn by the office workers in the film versus the colors worn by Bartleby. How does this use of color represent themes in the Herman Melville story?

Everyone of us has to go to school. We spend there our youth. We shape in school our personality by meeting different people. All of this people have a big influence on us. However, does school prepare us for life in the real world ?
On the one hand, we learn at/in school many things, which we won't need in future. For example mathematical equatations. Furthermore, we learn at/in school more theory than practical things. It's not enough time to conduct chemical experiments. Also it doesn't learn us responsibility, that we can always ask our teachers for help. It learns us that we always find needed help and that's not true in real world. We must to know that sometimes we have to be able to fend for oneself/ourself?/us?. Moreover at school we don't exactly bear consequences of our behaviour. We aren't of legal age, so our parents account for us.
(the rest in second question :)

I have only been coming to this site for a short while, but I find myself automatically skipping any questions (and answers) that are gramatically incorrect. I mean, ever heard of proofreading? I am no Einstein, but I can construct a basic sentence. I certainly have my misspellings, but I try not to. Am I the only English Snob here?

So I have to write an essay persuading the school to either get rid of the book 'The Catcher and the Rye' or to keep it available for students to read. I'm having a hard time choosing what side would be easier to write about. So if you could please tell me what side you'd write about with three reasons why. I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance.

I'm a college freshman and I am about to sign up for my second semester classes. I'm going towards a BS in Psychology, but I don't think one can get a very good job and salary with that degree after graduating. The Psyc Dept. in my University just keeps emailing about helping handicapped children and working in jails etc. Thats not what I want. The field is interesting, yet doesn't have great jobs. I also like Biology and Law. Yet I just read lawyers are having a difficult time finding work and many get out of law school. I was considering Biology and medical school, maybe neuroscience which is a blend of Psyc and Biology/Chem, but I hear people trying for Medical School and not getting in, or people failing the MCATs and not passing. Plus my Dad said he couldn't really see me as a doctor, but I don't think he understood it was more about the brain and it's functions and not cutting ppl open. I like many fields. I hate Math tho, Idk what classes to pick or wut to do with my life! HELP!

I already answered this question but I want to know it's right if not then can you please correct me?

1) the beginning of the novel is very similar to the first few paragraphs of this chapter. How?

answer: The first few paragraphs of this chapter are very similar to the beginning of the novel is because that's the place were George and Lennie were in the beginning of the novel. Lennie comes back here because this is were his campsite is. He follows exactly what George told him to do if he were to get in trouble.

2) What is the difference?

The difference between the setting of chapter six and the setting of the beginning of the novel is that chapter six took place late afternoon while in the beginning of the novel it took place at sunlight. Chapter six shows a sign of foreshadowing when the beck ate the little snake a possible sign of death which might relate to what is going to happen when George finds him.
