Satirical Essay
There have been recent studies showing that the death of students, due to their homework load, has been increasing over the years. This all started when the story of Amy Long’s death became notorious throughout the entire country. The poor girl was so stressed for her AP calculus test that she collapsed and never got to take the test she critically needed to pass. Her mother found her with a pencil in her cold, still hand and an unfinished derivative problem. Many other cases have turned up all over the world, validating that homework is executing the population of today’s youth. Madeline Zwicker, a hardworking sophomore, pushed herself so hard that she was crushed to death by the amount of homework she acquired. She was trying to grab her world history textbook when her astonishingly tall pile of homework fell right on top her. Unfortunately, she did not have the strength to dig her way out and eventually suffocated. One of the most common causes for students’ deaths is due to paper cuts. The razor sharp papers have led to deep gashes causing teens to bleed out. The homework outbreak is a serious topic that needs to be addressed before more youths lose their lives in such a disastrous way.

hard time understanding a story in most books I read, but now I’ve progressed and accomplished a better reading and writing skills since September. I’ve mostly progressed in my reading and my critical thinking skills.

There is so much homework after school every day; it took us more than 2 hours per day for homework at elementary school. I didn’t have fun childhood in my life.

Cummings ENG2D 22 April 2014 To Kill a Mockingbird We will never be able to measure the full effects that prejudice has on society. Realistically, it is very difficult for people to admit where they have gone wrong. Most people judge others daily by how they dress, talk, and look, most of the time without knowing it. Prejudice has an immense impact on who it is directed at; and yes, it is possible for prejudice to be lessened, but it will never be eliminated. In To Kill a Mockingbird, author Harper…
way is free will, choosing to get a good grade or not. Either way I’m going to learn/realize that doing my homework is beneficial to me and I should do it.
