Jonathan Swift Teacher PREP
A question that I am mainly focusing on isnt about what happens during the story but it has to do with the the main idea that I got out of it. My question is: do people really think before they act or speak. If you were confused onn your answer it should be NO. Now the reason why this question came across my mind was because through out the story there wasnt anything that crossed my mind that I didnt understand or if I didnt understand something it was minor. As I read the story I defintly couldnt predict the way Gulliver was going to act, put yourself in his shoes if that was me and knowing the way I am I would have went nuts when they let me slightley free think about your a big giant to these people, Id feel unstopable. This is when I started to actully learn something from reading this. When they let Gulliver up a little bit he thought about going crazy on the lilaputions but he looked at what he had in front of him and slowed his mind down and just settled with them. Even though settling with them wasnt really all that bad (actully it seemed really nice) he still showed that he considered and thought before he acted. Who knows if he didnt think before he went crazy then he might have been in a worst situation then he was and like I said the situation that he eventually put hisself in wasnt bad at all its very nice if ya asked me. Who wouldnt want a whole bunch of little people running around for ya and feeding you . As you can see its obvious what I'm going to focus on while I'm teaching my other teacher group. If you havent recognized I am goin to mostly stress about people in todays world thinking before they act. I will follow that up with some examples such as criminals walking around the streets with guns who kill people, if these people had a normal brain they would think before they pull that trigger. This clearly would slow down the crime rate all over the world. In conclusion I really had a strong focus while reading this story was happy with what I came out with wether it makes sense or it doesnt.
