Week 7

my views didnt change on how media changes how people really look. The hole concept on how natural beauty means natural nothing done to them and they are who they are not some dressed up, made up model. they showed you how they can take a person and make her into a entirely different looking person.

Week 6

1)The main idea of this article is to show how media tells women how they should look at themselves and others and what they can get if they look like the media tells them to.
2)The medias reason for the way they show off women is to sell just about any product possible. Products such as beer, cars, diet programs, foods, etc.You cant look at a single magazine today without finding at least one picture of a extremely thin model promoting something. Media also try's to convince women that if they do what they say and look like they portray women to look than they will have a perfect marriage, sex life, loving kids, and a successful rewarding carrer.
3)Researcher's generated a computer simulated a model of a women with barbie doll proportions to show that it is physically impossible to be that thin and look like that. Being unnaturally thin is unhealthy and for you to be even close to it you are hurting yourself by eating or not eating to get there.
4)I think women should be portrayed for who they really are not for what media makes them to be. Its like living behind close door's or living each day as Halloween. People aren't being themselves except for in there own homes and still people hide and act the way they think they are suppossed to. Each day they dress up in fancy clothes trying to impress people, trying to make themselves look good like they will win a prize or something, its just like halloween. It is the same concept you dress up trying to look the scariest or cutest in order to get candy or money. People need to wake up and be who they are dress how they want to and act how they want to stop listening to everyone else as a hippie would argue dont let the man bring you down.

WEEK 5

1)I noticed the the passage will be primarily about cell phone use while driving is worse than driving drunk. I also think this is going to be mostly opinionated.
2)The evidence in this article are facts about how bad cell phone use while driving is.The author gives examples from a driving simulator, quotes the us national highway traffic association and has different percentages on the topic.
3)The main idea of this article is to show how dangerous driving while using a cell phone actually is. It is so bad that there are more accidents and deaths than there are from drunk driving.
4)Drunk drivers are more aggressive while driving and did not get into an accident during the Utah test. Cell phone users on the other hand were more sluggish, reaction time delayed, would brake drastically and than accelerate unnecessarily, and 3 accidents occurred while this experiment was being tested.
5)Is, like, while, in addition were some signal words that helped me find my answers.
6)Hand held cell phones are just as dangerous as a regular cell phone because you are in a conversation and are paying attention to what eachother are saying and not the road and whats actually going on around you.
7)The cell phone industry see's the problem the same way gun company's look at it, cell phones don kill people, people do. They cant tell you how to use your phone just suggest it. People can wait till they are done driving to call people back or pull off and stop to make a phone call but you dont see to many people doing that.
