My First-Ever Written Rhetoric (Bullet Points)

-

Thank you, Mr. Speaker!

Motion:

„THB that we should travel not to escape life but for life not to escape us.”

I represent the side of the government. (those who agree)

My speech will consist of 6 parts:

1.     Definition of the word novelty.

2.     Correlate this with our lives.

3.     Parallel between empiricism and travelling.

4.     Substantiate my point of view by John Locke.

5.     Exemplify this with an opposition.

6.     Provide a conclusion based on sufficient evidence.


John Locke



1.     Definition of the word novelty:

·       Something that triggers our stimuli in such a way that it causes us excitement.

2.     This government believes that….

·       Humanity is inquisitive by nature.

·       Perception is the bedrock of human evolution.

·       The world is full of new adventures.

·       Point out one main in particular: travelling.

3.                3.     Parallel between empiricism and travelling:

·       The core of exploring is experience.

·       We have to scrutinize hitherto unfathomable places which is an enticing experience.

·       Needless to say that careful inspection of our surroundings plays a pivotal role in our lives in evolutionary terms either.

·       We have to expand our tabula rasa from the moment we were born and take on such pilgrimages that are of vivacity and could fill the gaps in our very lives.

4.                   4.      Substantiate my point of view by John Locke:

·       That’s what empiricism is all about, and education is as well.

·       That’s what the government is an adherent to. That’s whom I stand for, namely Enlightenment British philosopher John Locke.

 

 

5.     Exemplify this with an opposition:

Now we have to decide once and for all which option is more worthwhile out of these two:

To travel or not to travel? (That’s the question!)

·                      First option: (bad)

a)    We escape life and box ourselves within solitary confinement without even giving it a chance to gain empirical knowledge of the country to which we all belong or even the closest vicinity of the street where we live.

·                      Second option: (good)

a)    We made the decision that travelling is of paramount importance because novelty is what our deterministic life approach tells our mind to experience.

b)    Therefore, I dismantle the notion that free will and determinism may coexist together for the following reason:

Our actions are driven by physical incentives that influence mental states with behaviourism.

Mental states are biological states and biological states are connected to physical states under which we have no control.

Let me give you an example!

For instance, I go to the park not because I felt like that but because my blood supply was scarce in oxygen and I felt the emptiness in my mind, and I decided to refresh my brain by going outside that is going to the park.

Hence no free will.



Martin Luther King


6.                     6.    Conclusion:

Based on all this empirical evidence, I’ve arrived at the conclusion that travelling is of ubiquity in our lives without which hardly could we live.

Speech on Education

Motion: THS that salaries of teachers should be increased in institutionalized education. Thank you, Mr. Speaker! Dear honourable members of the House! Outline: In today’s debate, we are all looking for the answer to whether or not more subsidies should be distributed to teachers in institutionalized education.   In my speech, I will go into further detail on how the latter could be attained.   My speech will consist of 5 parts: First of all, I will give the exact definition of what the government mean by the word education. In the second part of my speech, I shall exemplify this by the status quo in Hungary. Thirdly, I will substantiate this problem by giving the highly-likely exacerbations of the situations provided that there is no intervention in time. In part four, I shall introduce what alteration(s) should take place. In the final part, I will provide a possible solution for the above-mentioned problem and draw a conclusion based on sufficient evidence.   Firs

Verb + ing Forms and Infinitives C1

Introduction: There are lots of unanswered questions concerning verb complementation including infinitives and gerund. Therefore, I have decided to answer these questions and dispel all of these doubts by writing a blog about this topic.  Let me start off by saying, that this blog won't include those basic grammar structures which are needed for the B2 exam.  Thus, I will only be writing about the learning material that is required for the so-called advanced level. Honestly, I have fallen in love with these grammatical structures, for this reason, I will be using them on the C1 exam, to impress the examiners. I want to get good points. Grammar: Some verbs can be either followed by an [object + ing] or a [possessive + ing] with a similar meaning.  Example: I resented Tom winning the prize. OR I resented Tom's winning the prize. (where the possessive noun ends with an ['s]) OR: Mia recalled him buying the book. Mia recalled his buying the book. Similar verbs:  Detest (u
