Week 11 : Class Highlights

Firstly, I just realized that the Internet is begins in the 1960s, but not in the 1990s or even in the 2000s. I thought the advanced technology world is just start recently but not in my mother's period (1960s). It is really unbeliable at that time the Internet's field is already begins.

Secondly, without the instruction of counting how many violence scene in a cartoon's show by the teacher, I have no idea nowsday the cartoon's show is prone to more and more violence and no longer in a fantasy and pure element but a series of bad and violence behaviours shown in the cartoon's show which is easily shape the children 's mind and development spiritually.

Thirdly, after watching Bowling for Columbine, I felt so shocked that buying a gun is legal and even the society and the governoment allow the banks to open an acoount for the public to get a gun in lights of protect themselves. I just cant imagine a country like that because most of the country I visited in my life, i have never heard of this ' ridiculous' event in a certain extent. This made me broaden my horizons and i realized different parts of the world is just so different.

  1. I was shocked when I found out that there were about 5 violent scenes in this very short Simpson cartoon. Because normally I just watched it and laughed. I did't really pay that much attention about the negative side of the content.

  2. Oh yeah, i forgot about the day we counted the number of violent occurences in that old cartoon. I thought that was pretty interesting as well. People often blame our society's increased violence on video games, television, film, etc... and yet, there was violence in cartoons back then too.

  3. In some degree, it is understandable that the guns are legal for sale; however, when there are so many deaths related to guns, government should reconsider the law.
