soapst

The novel we reading now is The Great Gatsby by Fitzgerald. The audience of this story is anyone who reads it. The purpose is to inform and explain. The occasion is in New York 1922. This book takes place during the Prohibition showing the audience what kind of time period people where going through. It also shows us how life was during the prohibition and the banning of the alcohol. When we read this story we are familiarized with the characters and the reasons on why they are like the way they are. The time period has a great affect as to why the characters act a certain way. The author also did a great job describing and connecting the time period along with the stories time line.

language

I believe that having a certain language is very important for many reasons. Having a language can help us in many ways. We can communicate with each other and actually understand each other. When someone has an accent you can automatically tell he is not from the place that speaks that language. For example Hispaniola people have a really bad English accent and you can tell they are not American, besides their tans.Language also helps divide people but not in a bad way. I believe there should be a universal language because it can be beneficial in many ways. For example doing business with someone who does not speak your language can be very hard and frustrating. Or another example, how amazing will it feel when your trying to fix your Internet and the Indian guy on the other side of the call can actually speak proper English.  It would be so much easier to socialize and communicate with each other and everyone else.
