.... up with the money to provide these things for themselves. However, this can teach a person good money management skills.
There comes a point in everyone's life when they must take control, and college is usually that time. Several people choose to live in dorms to have more control. By doing this they no longer have to abide by their parents' rules. They are now in control to say and do what they want. Living in a dorm also develops responsibility and independence. People who choose to live at home will still be under the rules they have always had. The sense of independence can not be attained at home either.

These situations can be played out today. Some people are exceptionally intelligent people and have the gift of regurgitating information which they are expected to know. These people can easily succeed in high school where tests and quizzes are geared towards information which one must know. This person, however, will never have the experience of wor .....

Working Together
.... to openly hear the other person's side and give an honest judgement of it. Even though someone might not want to give an opinion usually everyone leans toward one direction or another on any topic.
The cons are the disagreements, well that could also be a plus. When you work with a group it is a free ride. Everyone needs to participate for an effective collaboration.

Naturalism In "The Open Boat"
.... one of Crane's actual life experiences. In Crane's Life and Times, Crews states, " The Open Boat is almost a factual account of Crane's experience, but is also a work of art whose place among the best American short stories is secure" (125). With the story being told through the correspondent's point of view the story gives Crane an advantage to be very descriptive. In Stephen Crane's: Naturalist and Impressionist, Walcutt says, "Crane's writings on naturalism are very descriptive to his readers" (215).
Another important aspect of realism in, "The Open Boat," is the location of the story. The location in the story is sign .....

Odysseus also learns how too much of a good thing, such as wealth or gold, can seriously harm a man. He especially experiences this when he sacks Troy, and gets carried away, angering the gods. Henceforth, it is fitting that the excessive side of water represent Odysseus. Life that is brought by water, the water that satisfies souls is the type that represents Telemachus. He is not excessive, and has been in fact humbled by the suitors in their years there. Further, Telemachus has .....

Our writers and artists distinguish themselves around the world. It is no accident we have been chosen by the United Nations as not only the most literate country on earth, but also the best place in which to live.
