ENTRY 3
Identifying Bias
ITEM 1:
HEAVY
WEIGHT RIVALS?
Some little
boys were arguing about football.
-Whydo they call
the players on team "A" the "Heavy weight Rivals?"
-Why do you ask
such a stupid question? They are the players who are fed well so they will have
a big body. And, if they have a big body then it's for sure that they will have
a heavy weight. Right?
-Assumption
-Alalysis: in the above
conversation, a boy asks for the phrase “heavy weight rivals” and another boy
answers that because the players are fed well ,they have a big body. This
answer is wrong . In fact, phrase “ heavy weight rivals” means outstanding
football ability. Another word that players are very good at playing football
and often get a lot of excellent scores.
ITEM 2:

Analysis: The picture is the fact in the old time. It is class
discrimination that took place all over the world. In the picture, the boss
treats her servants badly. She brutally
beats them with a steak on her hand.

Trả lờiXóaIn your entry, some basic grammatical mistakes have to be avoided by you:
Trả lờiXóaItem 1: we say " in other words" ( put differently) not " another word"
Item 3: "a man" or "men" not "a men", men(Plural noun)
'the strong and decisive people" not " the strong, decisive people"
I have some comment for your entry:
Trả lờiXóa- Discrimination is prejudice in action, but I don't see prejudice in item 2. Please describe it more detail
- You should note to parallel "the men must dear to...., discover the world and have a lot of experience in life.
