Hi may you help me? Read the poem A Good Play:

We built a ship upon the stairs
All made of the back-bedroom chairs
And filled it full of sofa pillows
To go a-sailing on the billows.

We took a saw and several nails,
And water in the nursery pails;
And Tom said, "Let us also take
An apple and a slice of cake";–
Which was enough for Tom and me
To go a-sailing on, till tea.

We sailed along for days and days,
And had the very best of plays;
But Tom fell out and hurt his knee,
So there was no one left but me.

You may have previously drafted a similar, shorter essay in a lesson in this unit. If you have, please expand on the shorter essay that you wrote for that lesson by adding critical research and widening its scope. If you did not write a shorter essay, you can start writing from scratch by following the steps included in this task.

Here are a few ideas for you to consider while writing your essay. You can pick any one of these or choose a topic of your own to build your essay.

How does Tolstoy employ his characters to draw out the difference between the artificial and authentic life?
How does Ivan Ilyich perspective towards death change over the course of the novel?
How does Ivan’s suffering affect his attitude towards both life and death?
Make sure you consult at least one source from your school or local library and at least two credible Internet sources, and incorporate the information that you gather into your paper. Use information from respected journals or academic or government institutions when looking at online sources to ensure that you’re referring to credible sources. Verify if the author that you are quoting is an expert on your chosen subject. Ensure that the author has published many articles in reputed journals and other sources. Also, ensure that the article you want to reference is well cited and has a bibliography at the end. For more advice, read about finding and evaluating credible resources and citations.

Also remember to include relevant information from the primary source—Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich—in your essay as well. You can access the novella by opening up any of the lessons about the The Death of Ivan Ilyich.

Include at least one counterargument in your paper. A counterargument or counterclaim captures an idea that those with a differing viewpoint might raise against your claims in the essay. By anticipating such counterclaims and offering a rebuttal, you make your own argument stronger. Read more about organizing your essay and including counterarguments. Ensure that your arguments flow in logical, well-structured paragraphs that reference and directly address counterclaims.

After you have finished your essay, create a works cited page that follows the Modern Language Association (MLA) style. You can use this resource guide to prepare your works cited page. Follow the steps mentioned in the Process section below as you work on your essay to see the steps you should follow.

Process

Follow the steps below to complete your essay, and use the resources provided to assist with your research and writing. When you have finished your essay, use the drop box to submit it to your teacher.

Gather sources. Before creating your thesis, begin gathering additional sources to build your argument and support your thesis. For each source, consider the following questions:

Who authored the document?
What is the purpose of the document?
When was the document written?
How will this document help your argument?
Read and evaluate sources. Next, examine each source and think about how you will use it to support a thesis. Be an active researcher by asking the following questions about each source you reference:

What is the credibility of the source?
Is there any noticeable bias?
How does the argument differ from others you have read?
What is the value of the source to the topic you are investigating?
Develop your thesis statement. Now that you have analyzed sources to use as evidence, revisit the essay question. Then, develop your thesis statement.
If you need additional guidance, many writing resources are available to help you create a strong thesis statement.

Form your argument. Once you have a clear, strong thesis statement, develop your argument. Make a particular effort to match the evidence in your sources to the points in your argument.

Write your essay. As you write your paper, use quotations from and summaries of your sources to support your argument. Be careful to keep the following ideas in mind:

To avoid plagiarism, make sure to cite your sources properly with in-text citations as well as a works cited page.
When you finish, reread the essay to check for all of the points above, and then proofread it to be sure your work doesn’t contain errors in grammar or spelling.

Lack of Individuality: Controls citizens by requiring everyone to dress or look a certain way, assigning jobs, housing, spouses, children, or just about anything to citizens. People lose their freedom of choice for many everyday things. They may even use genetic engineering to create a society where people have certain features or abilities


Surveillance: Citizens no longer have privacy to a very high degree. There might be cameras or microphones everywhere to keep track of citizens even in private places like homes. People find it hard to misbehave or speak out against their government when surveillance is used because they are always being monitored.


Government Control: The ability to know the truth about the world, make choices for their own lives, and have privacy are often lacking or missing altogether for citizens. It may be a combination of all the elements listed above.

Read the passage. The Runaway Rachel glanced up from her math homework and sighed in disgust as she spotted the little black Chihuahua running through her yard. This was the fourth time this month the dog had ambled his way over to their yard. Knowing that she would not be able to focus on her studies until he was secured in their house or at the animal shelter, she got up and went downstairs to see what she could do. One of these days that dog was going to get lost permanently, or worse yet, hurt! As she reached the bottom of the stairs, she could hear her mother leaving a message with the animal control officer, sounding worried and frustrated as well. Rachel’s whole family loved animals and had had numerous pets over the years. It was no surprise that her mother was as concerned as Rachel was. Rachel couldn’t understand it. How hard is it to keep a dog in a yard or the house? Her own dog, Gus, had escaped from them once as a puppy. But after that, he was always on a leash or in their yard securely behind the fence. There is always a solution to every problem, Rachel thought, and most of the time, it didn’t take a genius to figure it out. Whoever had this dog was not fit to be a pet-owner, she mused to herself. As she stepped out onto the back porch and into the yard, the little dog came running toward her. Rachel scooped him up, put a slip lead on him, and decided to try to figure out where he lived, although she knew this meant she would be up late finishing her homework. She let her mother know she’d be out for a while and set off. When she was six blocks away from her house, she heard a feeble voice calling out. As Rachel walked closer, she spotted an elderly woman in a worn yellow housecoat. Was that Mrs. Carson? Rachel hadn’t seen her for years. Mrs. Carson was leaning on a cane and walking unsteadily around her overgrown yard. As Rachel approached the house, she was struck by its neglected state. A broken window had been repaired with tape peeling from age. The house badly needed a fresh coat of pa

Read the following paragraph from “Katherine Johnson Biography.”

The 1957 launch of the Soviet satellite Sputnik changed history—and Katherine Johnson’s life. In 1957, Katherine provided some of the math for the 1958 document Notes on Space Technology, a compendium of a series of 1958 lectures given by engineers in the Flight Research Division and the Pilotless Aircraft Research Division (PARD). Engineers from those groups formed the core of the Space Task Group, the NACA’s first official foray into space travel, and Katherine, who had worked with many of them since coming to Langley, “came along with the program” as the NACA became NASA later that year. She did trajectory analysis for Alan Shepard’s May 1961 Freedom 7, America’s first human spaceflight. In 1960, she and engineer Ted Skopinski coauthored Determination of Azimuth Angle at Burnout for Placing a Satellite Over a Selected Earth Position, a report laying out the equations describing an orbital spaceflight in which the landing position of the spacecraft is specified. It was the first time a woman in the Flight Research Division had received credit as an author of a research report.

Rewrite the paragraph below into simple present tense.

Professions developed ethical standards and codes for a number of reasons. First, ethical standards helped to reassure the public, particularly law-makers, that the field could regulate itself and did not need others outside of the profession making laws governing the practice of that profession in order to protect the public's interests. Ethical standards offered the public reassurance in general that a profession was standardized and that they could expect to be treated ethically according to set criteria. This improved people's perception of and trust in the profession and consequently increased business. To put it simply, ethical standards increased the professionalism of the profession.
