Read the passage and tell me the theme:
"In his sophomore year of high school, Michael Jordan tried out for the varsity basketball team at Laney High School in Wilmington, North Carolina. But at five feet and eleven inches tall, the coach believed that Jordanwas too short to play at that level, so Jordan was cut from the team. Jordan didn't let this obstacle defeat him. In fact, it pushed him to work even harder. He trained vigorously and grew another four inches the following summer. When he finally made the varsity squad, Jordan averaged 25 points a game and went on to become one of the greatest basketball players in history."

Pregunta 11
Pregunta
When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals. Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered.

Pregunta
Getting paid for good grades is sending a mixed message to our kids. By paying kids for getting A's, we are showing them that you should only work hard in life so that you can be rewarded with money. But this isn't always the case. Sometimes you should work hard , becausee it is the right and expected thing to do. You should be giving %100 of your effort in school because it is the responsible thing to do, not because you are getting paid for it. Students should be working hard to learn skills that will help them as an adult, not working hard for the purpose of making money. Working hard is just a part of life.
What is the author's point of view?
Respuesta
-
We should pay students for good grades to teach them important life lessons.
-
We shouldn't pay students for good grades, they should want to work hard because it is the right thing to do.
-
Working hard is important.
-
Being responsible is important.
