The first rays of sun illuminated the frost on the inside of the window. Jack knew then that the temperature had dipped below zero overnight. The tiny cabin on Mount Rainier was little more than a shack. It had smelled musty when he and Armando first entered it last night, but the strong odor of smoke from the fire filled his nostrils now.
Jack was glad to see that Armando was sleeping on the tattered cot. His friend had fallen more than 30 feet onto a rocky ledge. Jack was certain that Armando’s leg was shattered.
Jack began to think of the treacherous route back to the nearest town. He would have to cross rugged terrain and frozen streams. But Jack knew that he would have to make it there today to find a doctor. Jack drew in a deep breath and began to pack. As his resolve grew, his shaking hands began to steady. He would not let his friend down.

Which details of the setting are most important in conveying the mood?

musty, the inside of the window, smoke from the fire

Taking Sides Discussion

Directions: Consider the following questions about taking sides. Write notes to share with the whole class. Be sure to update your notes as new ideas come up.

Why do we take sides?






When is it important to choose sides?






How do we decide which side to take?






What are the advantages and disadvantages of remaining neutral?






Is there always a “right” or “wrong” side? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

No we don’t. Sometimes you are forced onto a side in an argument or debate but you don’t have to take a side if you don’t wish to.

Think about a real world example. That of the diplomat. The job is to expressly not take sides so that the issue can be resolved.

There are many situations where you are forced to take a side or create a third position. Take a couple who are breaking up. You were friends with one of them first and then became friends with the other person. The initial friend then tells you to pick a side, which is their side. You don’t want to lose either as friends so create a third ‘side’. The tricky bit here is that you have sided against the initial friend but not necessarily with the second friend.

There are times when you have to take sides though. If you have a set of morals. Whatever those morals are will often mean that in certain situations you have decided you are going to pick a side. You will have decided this beforehand as far as the broader topic is concerned. When you enter into conversations or actions that are directly related to the topic you have already unconsciously picked a side.

What people often find is that when a decision has to be made that has two outcomes they need to pick a side. Take politics as an example in this. If no-one ever picked a side then no-one would vote. No decisions would be made.

Over all we don’t always have to pick sides but often we have to whether we want to or not as that is simply decision making.

Explanation:

We take sides because we believe one thing is more correct than the other.
It’s important to choose sides when things are important, or you are imagining and critically thinking about the topic.
You decide which side to take based off of facts and anything else you know about the topic.
Advantages of remaining neutral is you don’t get in conflict. Disadvantages would be your ideas not getting said.
There is always a right or wrong side. For example, if someone says 2+2 = 4, and someone else says 2+2=4, there’s a right and a wrong. When it comes to randomly throwing out ideas off of imagination, there’s no right or wrong. You’re just throwing out ideas.

In the Point/Counterpoint article “Violence in the Movies,” two authors express conflicting ideas about the effect media violence has on young people. Read the excerpts, and then choose the correct response to each prompt.

. . . Children are being exposed to high levels of violence in movies, television, and other media throughout the span of childhood. According to research published by the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, “The typical American child will view more than 200,000 acts of violence, including more than 16,000 murders, before age 18.”

What Hollywood filmmakers must understand is that children mimic what they see in movies. When a hero exhibits violent behaviors to defeat an enemy, children follow his lead. They learn that violence is an acceptable form of problem solving. Those who see themselves as victims may be more likely to act out in violent behaviors. They may act against peers, parents, teachers, or other authority figures. According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, in 2011, students ages 12-18 were victims of 597,500 violent victimizations at school.
—“Point”


Violent behavior is an extremely complex issue that cannot be reduced to a simple cause-effect relationship. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified many risk factors for youth violence. These include history of early aggressive behavior, exposure to violence in the family, low parental involvement, association with delinquent peers, low IQ, poor academic performance, low socioeconomic status, and many others. Exposure to violence in movies does not appear on the CDC’s list.

. . . Jonathan L. Freedman, a professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, reported “a very small correlation” between media violence and aggressive behavior in children. Freedman suggested that violent behavior is most likely present in children who lack regular adult supervision. How can we hold filmmakers responsible for putting children at risk when it’s a parental duty to monitor what children are watching? Parents must teach their children appropriate behaviors.
—“Counterpoint”

How is the topic of both passages similar?

Answer choices for the above question

A. They both discuss reasons for children’s violent behavior.

B. They both argue against excessive violence on television.
How do the writers’ explanations of childhood violence differ?

Answer choices for the above question

A. The “Point” writer thinks Hollywood promotes violent problem solving, but the “Counterpoint” author thinks children are naturally aggressive.

B. The “Point” writer believes children mimic the violent behavior they see, but the “Counterpoint” writer thinks parents do not teach or supervise their children properly.

Which sources are cited by both passages?

Answer choices for the above question

A. American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Professor Jonathan L. Freedman

B. U.S Bureau of Justice Statistics and data from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention

How do the writers support their main idea differently?

Answer choices for the above question

A. The “Point” writer focuses on popular culture, but the “Counterpoint” writer focuses on psychology.

B. The “Point” writer focuses on interactions between children and their parents, but the “Counterpoint” author focuses on risk factors.
