January 11th Homework
1/ Life in Vietnam
- No, absolutely not. In the story, everything does not turn out really good. If Vietnam full of everyone with equally in every way, there will be no diversity on this country. If everyone all smart, this would be a tedious world. The more identical we are, the more worst team work result we have, no different idea. We don't have any extra knowledge, no thinking outside the box and no different style. Everything is just the way it is. Simple. Beside, we can't make everyone equal. Being different is what make us us and nothing can ever achieve the equally from us.
2/ You are designing a society in which everyone is equal. What are the laws?
- High class people have to share their money to other poor people.
- Everyone have to do one job, business and have to sell whatever the government want.
- Every children from 5 to 18 years old must show up at school
- Gay people can't love other gay people, they have to marry to a girl like normal people
- ...
3/ What would you do to help people who were less capable mentally, physically, or socially to “catch up”?
- I would help them in anyhow in my ability like I meet an old woman is trying to pass the street with tons of cars are going completely bonkers, I will help her to pass the street without anything in return.
4/ What problems can you foresee that might come in a society with laws that force “equality for all”? How would you handle those problems?
- There will be no real genius found. If everyone equal, we can't say that person rich or that person poor. Everything in this world is just, I don't know, equally average?
5/ Do you believe that total equality is possible, or would human nature make sure that some people would eventually dominate others?
- Nope, never because making people equal is impossible. No one can naturally born and be exactly the same like another one. No matter how you try to make it equal from a world that everyone is different, this is impossible. Furthermore, no one gonna listen to one person forever and especially if that person force that someone do something they don't want to do, there is no way someone gonna listen to others' domination.
6/ In what situations have you felt similarly to any of the characters? What persons, places, or ideas from your own experience came to mind while you were reading this story? Try to list as least two examples.
- There was time when I was so angry and I want to destroy everything on my way. I tear my pillow out and jumping up and down on the bed. I think this situation of mine pretty is fit with Harrison breaking down the studio situation.
- While I read this story, there were lots of images just floating in my head like I can imagine how Harrison house is like and how does it shake when Harrison jumps. I can also see ahead of me the studio where the shooting happen and I can imagine George in person.
