  • Applicant Preparation Guide for the Post Entry-Level Test Battery
    APPLICANT PREPARATION GUIDE FOR THE POST ENTRY-LEVEL TEST BATTERY PREPARING FOR THE MULTIPLE-CHOICE AND CLOZE EXAMS There are many different types of tests. Two kinds of tests that most of us are familiar with are achievement tests and aptitude tests. Achievement tests measure what you know about some specific thing. A final exam in college is an example of an achievement test. In a final exam, the student is evaluated on how well he or she has mastered the curriculum of the class. Aptitude tests are quite different; they are tests for determining the probability of a person's success in some activity in which he or she is not yet trained. A college entrance test, such as the SAT, is an example of an aptitude test. In reality, achievement tests and aptitude tests occupy the end points of a continuum of test type for all tests are a little of each. It is important to know the distinction between the two types of tests is because, in general, you can study to improve your score on an achievement test, but there is only a limited amount of study and preparation that you can do for an aptitude test. The POST Test-Battery is primarily a language aptitude test. As such, there is some improvement in test score that can be achieved by preparation, but how you do on the test is primarily determined by how much language skill you presently possess. Language skills develop over a lifetime and tend to be very stable. Noticeable improvement in language skills typically takes a prolonged, intense effort.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION ARTS & SCIENCES “I THOUGHT ABOUT KILLING YOU”: CONSIDERING THE UTILITY OF RHETORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL CRITICAL APPROACHES TO KANYE WEST’S YE CORY N. STEINLE SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Communication Arts and Sciences and Labor and Employment Relations with honors in Communication Arts and Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Bradford Vivian Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Associate Teaching Professor in Communication Arts & Sciences Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This paper examines the merits of intrinsic and extrinsic critical approaches to hip-hop artifacts. To do so, I provide both a neo-Aristotelian and biographical criticism of three songs from ye (2018) by Kanye West. Chapters 1 & 2 consider Roland Barthes’ The Death of the Author and other landmark papers in rhetorical and literary theory to develop an intrinsic and extrinsic approach to criticizing ye (2018), evident in Tables 1 & 2. Chapter 3 provides the biographical antecedents of West’s life prior to the release of ye (2018). Chapters 4, 5, & 6 supply intrinsic (neo-Aristotelian) and extrinsic (biographical) critiques of the selected artifacts. Each of these chapters aims to address the concerns of one of three guiding questions: which critical approaches prove most useful to the hip-hop consumer listening to this song? How can and should the listener construct meaning? Are there any improper ways to critique and interpret this song? Chapter 7 discusses the variance in each mode of critical analysis from Chapters 4, 5, & 6.

    TWO WORDS by Isabel Allende Copyright © 1989 by Isabel Allende https://fortheloveofshortstories.wordpress.com/2016/09/01/two-words/ She went by the name of Belisa Crepusculario, not because she had been baptized with that name or given it by her mother, but because she herself had searched until she found the poetry of "beauty" and "twilight" and cloaked herself in it. She made her living selling words. She journeyed through the country from the high cold mountains to the burning coasts, stopping at fairs and in markets where she set up four poles covered by a canvas awning under which she took refuge from the sun and rain to minister to her customers. She did not have to peddle her merchandise because from having wandered far and near, everyone knew who she was. Some people waited for her from one year to the next, and when she appeared in the village with her bundle beneath her arm, they would form a line in front of her stall. Her prices were fair. For five centavos she delivered verses from memory, for seven she improved the quality of dreams, for nine she wrote love letters, for twelve she invented insults for irreconcilable enemies. She also sold stories, not fantasies but long, true stories she recited at one telling, never skipping a word. This is how she carried news from one town to another. People paid her to add a line or two: our son was born, so-and-so died, our children got married, the crops burned in the field. Wherever she went a small crowd gathered around to listen as she began to speak, and that was how they learned about each others' doings, about distant relatives, about what was going on in the civil war.

    Case 1:06-cv-00480-PLF Document 116 Filed 03/29/10 Page 1 of 24 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA __________________________________________ ) ROBERT R. PRUNTÉ, ) ) Plaintiff, ) ) v. ) Civil Action No. 06-0480 (PLF) ) UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP, INC., et al., ) ) Defendants. ) __________________________________________) OPINION Plaintiff Robert R. Prunté alleges that approximately 45 named defendants have infringed his copyright in numerous songs that he wrote and produced. He seeks to recover damages pursuant to the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq., for direct and contributory copyright violations. Of the many defendants currently named in this case, only two — UMG Recordings, Inc. (“UMG” or “Universal”), and Warner Music Group Corp. (“Warner”) (collectively “the defendants”), have responded to the complaint. These defendants have filed a motion for summary judgment, and Mr. Prunté has filed a cross-motion. Mr. Prunté has also submitted two plainly frivolous motions in which he (1) alleges that the defendants are in contempt of court, and (2) requests that the Court “take judicial notice of certain adjudicative facts and facts of law.” Docket No. 94 at 1. The defendants have moved to strike various papers Case 1:06-cv-00480-PLF Document 116 Filed 03/29/10 Page 2 of 24 filed by Mr. Prunté, including his motion alleging contempt of court and his motion for summary judgment.1 Upon consideration of the entire record in this case, the parties’ arguments, and the relevant law, the Court concludes that the defendants’ works are not substantially similar to those of the plaintiff and that the defendants therefore are entitled to summary judgment on all claims.

  • Word Choice (Denotation and Connotation)
    Word Choice (Denotation and Connotation) In argumentative writing, as in an editorial, authors choose their words carefully in order to best convince the audience of his/her point of view. They try to pick the most precise words to create the proper tone for their message. The way they achieve this effect is to write with words that have attached to them certain denotations and connotations. Denotation-Dictionary, literal meaning of words Connotation-Common associations that people make with words (positive or negative) Example Word: Gray Denotation-Color of any shade between the colors of black and white Connotation-Negative, Gloom, Sadness, Old Age Practice Word: Mustang Denotation-Small, wild horse of the North American Plains Connotation-Positive, strong, fast, sleek, beautiful The connotation of the word is why Ford carmakers would choose to name one of its models “Mustang.” Think of two currently used automobile names. What are the denotations of the words? What connotations did the manufacturer hope to evoke in naming that car that particular name? What details do the names bring to mind? What does the name tell you about who drives the car, how fast it is, and what its features are? Denotation and Connotation Practice Car #1 Car #2 Automobile Name: Denotation: Connotations: What name tells you about driver, speed, features of car: Now think of a car and color that describe you. Be prepared to share your response with the class. Car: Features of car that are similar to you: Color: Reason for color of car: Connotation Practice Words with similar dictionary meanings often have different connotations, so it is very important for a writer to choose words carefully.

  • TABOOS – Common Writing Errors to Avoid (Created by Philip Dacey, SMSU Professor Emeritus, 1939-2016)
    TABOOS – Common Writing Errors to Avoid (Created by Philip Dacey, SMSU Professor Emeritus, 1939-2016) Professor Marianne Murphy Zarzana Southwest Minnesota State University, Marshall, Minnesota The errors identified below are ones students frequently make. Writing well is, of course, not just a matter of avoiding errors, but an error-free paper is like a clean window through which the reader looks; it helps display clearly what you have to say. Errors say, “I don’t care enough about you to take pains with this communication.” Ideally, over the course of the semester, you will not be violating any of these taboos and will have moved on to more advanced considerations about writing, positive ones, not just what to avoid but what to do to enhance your work. (On your essays, T plus a number will indicate one of the following taboos.) “We live at the level of our language. Whatever we can articulate we can imagine or understand or explore.” – Ellen Gilchrist I. GRAMMAR 1. Be wary of like/as confusion. “Like” is a preposition and must take an object: he looks like trouble. “Like” cannot precede a clause (clauses, unlike phrases, have verbs); “as” can precede a clause because it’s a conjunction. “Winston tastes good like a cigarette should” is grammatically incorrect (as the ad writers knew). Sometimes “that” can replace “like”: I feel alone, (like) that nobody cares.” Or try “as if.” 2. “Then,” “thus,” and “therefore” are adverbs, not conjunctions, and therefore cannot connect two independent clauses, even with a comma. Not this: “He knocked on the door, then she came to the window.” One alternative is: “When he knocked on the door, she came, etc.” 3.

  • The Centrality of Human Misery in the Odyssey
    Philomathes Heroics, Home, and Heartbreak: The Centrality of Human Misery in the Odyssey he Odyssey is, first and foremost, about a man who suffers. T The most famous part of the poem, after all, is the four-book journey of the protagonist across treacherous waters and through various trials. But his suffering is not limited to his physical trials on the sea — when we first meet him on Calypso’s island, he’s crying a river (or perhaps, an ocean), and even after returning home he suffers abuse after abuse by the suitors as they wander through his halls. This paper focuses on Odysseus’ identity as a “man of suffering.” An understanding of suffering in the Odyssey helps us comprehend not only Odysseus’ near-universal appeal but also what makes him exceptional among the poem’s characters; that is, what makes him a hero. This examination also gives anthropological insight to how Homer1 and his audience viewed how suffering works on a communal level. I take a twofold approach: first I will offer some reflections on his character based on a close examination of the language used to describe him, and then I will elaborate further upon how his suffering is tied to his house, the οἶκος, in order to offer one view of how his suffering plays a role in the larger web of characters and in the entire poem. 1 “Homer” as used in this paper refers to whatever creative mind (or minds) was behind the Iliad and the Odyssey, used if nothing else as convenience to stand in for the whole of these poems’ oral tradition (cf.
