During this time period, the United States and Mexico went to war for the land. The Mexicans allowed the Americans stay as long as the followed these rule: they must follow their Catholic Religion, have no slaves working on their land, and they must obey the Mexican rules at all times. The Americans followed this until more and more Americans started to live there and started to break their rules. The Mexicans did not like this at all and they want to make sure they have an agreement on still on this land. Was this the right thing to do or could have the Mexicans do something different? I will be explaining this in the next few paragraphs.

I believe the two most important amendments in the Bill of Rights is the first and second amendments. The reason the first amendment is important to the United States citizens is because it protects the freedom of speech, religion and the press of a citizen. Citizens are able to communicate, state their opinion without getting into any trouble. However, “There are some limits to this, though, such as libel, slander, obscenity and incitement to commit a crime.”. People are free to speak their minds as long as they do not give false information about any other citizen. Many citizens have different religions, no one can change a person's religion nor how they practice it. Everyone has a right to their own religion, citizens have the freedom of

In Edgar Allan Poe’s short stories, Poe reflects key events and aspects of his life, including his interest in the topic of time, and milestones that occurred throughout his personal life. In “The Masque of the Red Death,” Poe gets his inspiration from his family members that perished during his lifetime, including his mother, foster mother, and wife Virginia; “The Tell-Tale Heart” is a reflection of his paranoia, anxiety, and the accusations people made of him being insane. The American author was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1809. Shortly afterwards, he was left by both of his parents, his father abandoning home, and his mother passing away from illness (Mystery). Poe was passed on to live with his foster family, the Allans (Mystery). His foster mother, Fanny Allan, died of tuberculosis in the year 1829, and as a result of this, he moved out due to his foster father’s treatment (Mystery). During his lifetime, Poe wrote stories and poems, and became the highly acclaimed author that he is today. Among his works include “The Tell-Tale Heart,” “The Masque of the Red Death,” “Annabel Lee,” and “The Raven,” which specifically became popular when it launched internationally (Masque). As an author, Poe is best known for his use of a dark theme, and his supernatural beings that can be found in his stories (Masque).

Reading, an activity that has been around for years, centuries even; appears to be reaching the end of its popularity among the modern youth. Reading literature remains the key to a successful and cultured society. Today the ability to read remains highly valued. In our advancing world, there remains much more to learn and know; the importance of reading is increasing. During the Victorian era, wealthy people gathered around and read books for an hour or so, seeing that being able to read was a sign of social status. But, today people not only read for pleasure and knowledge, but to educate and catch up with the events taking place all around us. Almost every job today, requires the basic ability to know how to read and write.

Speaking English as a second language in front of others can prove to be anxiety-provoking and when an international student develops this kind of fear they limit their ability to participate in discussions of class and develop a social relationship. For entry of international student in universities would normally consist of a TOEFL or IELTS score. However, even when the entry level requirement is fulfilled by students, they are not acquainted with the terminology that is technical for a subject area specialist. Difficult time is faced by international students while reading because of lack of familiarity with English vocabulary, a weak understanding of complex syntax, lack of background knowledge in a subject and lack of equivalent words between English and their native language (Mertin, 2013). Criteria of language which is the only thing achieved by the students, studying in English, especially at the level of master’s, can result stressful and onerous. The language entry requirement which is pass by the international students and the independent study was problematic for the international students required at a very early stage of the

“The more that you read, the more things you will know the more that you learn, the more place you will go.” – Dr Seuss. In this world full of competitions, it’s hard to survive without knowing three basic skills. Those are reading, speaking and, writing. Reading is an amazing communication channel that human being has invented. For me, Reading anything is combination of two things, your eyes and continues thing of your brain. Reading is everywhere in our routine life beginning from early morning newspaper to late night texting. Talking about my life, role of reading was different in my every part of life.

Teaching reading is one of the critical parts of teaching language. Through reading, the teacher role is to guide student how to comprehend written language so that the student can get the idea and share their thought to other easily. Byrnes (1998) stated that reading is an interactive process that goes on between the reader and the text, resulting in comprehension. The text presents letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs that encode meaning. The reader uses knowledge, skills, and strategies to determine what that meaning is. Before teaching reading, it is necessary for teacher to meet some requirements mentioned before. Teacher also has to be completely understood and choose the effective method and technique as well as preparing the decent reading material. Whilst also considering the student who has English as a foreign language and student’s language

Over the years reading and writing has impacted the lives of individuals in various, unique ways; for example, reading can be a pleasurable hobby for some, or writing could have an impact as life changing as driving one’s career in journalism. Reading and writing ultimately affects the majority of people, positive or negative, because it is incorporated in the majority of the daily tasks we encounter. Personally, reading and writing has been influential in my development as a person because it has offered challenges that I have had to over come as well as offering an escape from reality.

It is acrimonious that teaching of English in India is still to a great extent, examination-oriented only. Therefore, the vernacular medium students suffer from a syndrome that does not allow them to perform well in higher education courses. They draw a periphery around themselves that doesn’t permit them to exercise their talent in the process of learning English and other subjects. At the moment, it is the duty of teachers to cater to the practical needs

Furthermore, reading opens the mind to new horizons and exposes a new experience. That’s why, whilst reading it also needs some sort of any other way of process, wherein man can read and understand texts deeply. This so-called other way of process is the outlining, that in such a way, can be a tool for a meaningful reading comprehension.

English language becomes a part of our life in various aspects such as business, education, economic, social culture and others. As we known that our country is one of favorite destination for the tourists and the language that we use to communicate with them is English language which is widely spoken. Since English has influent in our life and it still have problems in both teachers and students. The main reason that we always have heard from the others is we have our own language, we can communicate with other people in country easily so, it is unnecessary to learn other language.

Poetry can help tremendously with emotional development, help readers gain better awareness of their own feelings, as well as those of the poet. Also, plays are great as instructional tools and can be used to educate people through entertainment. Prose works are a brilliant medium for a writer’s imagination to take hold, and produces amazing thought experiments. Many novels are simply about characters similar to ordinary people and how they deal with ordinary circumstances. And lastly, as an academic exercise, analyzing literature can be very fulfilling. It’s a way of connecting to another human being in ways not accessible in ordinary conversation. Because it is emotional and our thoughts are expressed through language, our chief form of communication, as opposed to music or picture, literature is easiest to understand and engage with as an art form. This concept ties in with why it is important to read a larger variety of texts. This will broaden your outlook or perspective on life, as well as, expose you to several types of literary

Writing and reading, to me, work harmoniously. They go together like peanut butter and jelly - although I am not that fond of peanut butter. Nevertheless, it is essential to read in order to experience growth in one’s writing. As it is essential to write, so there could be more voices and more books of ones liking out in the world to read.

It was during the 1800s that a decision was taken which had ended up being the turning point for the language in education scenario in India and changed the orientation of language priority in Indian education. The decision was taken to ignore the vernacular medium education and concentrate entirely on English as the single language for instruction (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010)(Sridhar, 1989). It was made clear that those who had attained education in English would be preferred over the vernacular educated class. English had become the language of higher education and with the establishment of the prestigious universities in the major cities like Bombay, Calcutta, Madras, Lahore, Allahabad and Punjab, English had achieved its supremacy (Sridhar, 1989) (Krishnaswamy & Krishnaswamy, 2006). From this point onwards education came to be equated with English education and those who studied in vernacular medium were put permanently in the background (Sridhar, 1989), a mindset prevalent in the mind of Indians even today. Despite the changes which were made in the language policies in the 1900s to make space for vernacular languages in the educational setting did not meet with the expected success (Krishnaswamy & Krishnaswamy, 2006) (Sridhar, 1989). By 1970s and 1980s about one-third of the India had its schools using English as their medium of instruction (Paranjpe & Prasad, 2010). Hence the language in education policy during the colonial era had created two different media of
