RAPPORT TALK
AND REPORT TALK
Men and women are very different from
each other in many ways. One of them is their talking amounts. Do women talk
more or men talk more? This question has always been a difficult question to
answer. Because people can not come to an agreement about the answer. In this
article, named rapport talk and report talk, Deborah Tannen explains gender
communication and the differences between man and woman. According to Deborah
Tannen, men and women differ in the way puplic speaking and private speaking. Deborah
Tannen sees man as puplic speakers. Because men talk for information and so
they like talking to other peoples. Men are better than women in terms of puplic
speaking. So here men are called report talk according to Debarah Tannen. Women
are different that they use language to express their feeling. And women like
private speaking and they are better than men at this point. Because of those,
Deborah Tannen sees women as rapport talkers. In the article it is stated that
men do not like talking about everything. Unless there is something to say. They
do not talk. But women speak almost about everything. They want to speak for interaction. For
example In the evening women want to talk how was the day, what happened etc.
but men are not like that. That’s why many of women are complaining about their
husbands.
Then what about the question that which
one talk more , men or women ??? I think this issue is depends on the
personality. Because this is about the structure of human being. I mean that is
something about personality. But to tell the truth there is a common perception
that women talk much more than men. But that is not certainly true. As I said
before, this is about the person’s character…

I SURF,
THEREFORE, I AM
.jpg)
In the article -I Surf, Therefore I Am- ; the teacher whose name is Judith Levine, demonstrates that students do not use internet for their courses or homeworks. She points out that internet is used just for surfing by students. I think she has a point because as a student, I am also an internet user but I use internet mostly for surfing or playing games etc. So this is a serious issue and we should realise something. Internet is something we use mostly for fun, not for their education. Judith Levine also presses this point. She says internet has a great effect on students. Besides once they start using it, they can not leave it. Many students are becoming addicted to the Internet. They spend more and more time on playing computer games or just surfing on the net without any particular reasons. Accordingly, the time they spend on studying is automatically reduce, which in turns causes the lower academic achievement. Moreover, some of them go to the extreme, becoming serious internet addicts, and they even refuse to go to school as they cannot escape from the trap of internet. Another aspect is, internet hinders students from doing their homework or assigned task by their own. Thanks to internet, students can obtain the information they need with a great ease by simply clicking the button. However, this great accessibility to any kind of information can be abused. For instance, when students are given an assignment, what many of them do is just go on the websites or the blogs where the needed information is posted, and drag, they copy and paste it without looking the text thoroughly. Some students even download the material which someone else has already done and submit it as if it were their own work. So as we see internet is not a good helper for student but if used right, it has many information for everything …
Article Reflection-1
At Home with
Mamma
In
this article, it is indicated that the opinion that young people , especially
teenagers, leave their homes or families after a certain period is not exactly
true. We can say this depending on this article. Because there are a lot of
examples that shows us Italien peoples that stay with their parents until their
30s and even 35s. I read this article and it really attract my attention. Because
this is an interesting and even extraordinary fact comparing the present
condition of life. Why those Italian men prefer to live with their parents
instead of choosing a life that on their own? The answers for this question can
be many. Maybe they love their parents and they do not want to be apart from
them. Maybe they are lazy and don’t like working so they want everything prepared and ready for
themselves. But it is maybe because of the difficulties of living in Italy. Maybe
it is not as easy as other countries to get along in Italy.
Those
are possible answers but maybe all of them have an effect on their
lifestyle. There are also some records that we can get information from. Those records have very surprising facts.
Here is one of them :
According to a report published on Wednesday, almost a third
of Italian adults (31%) live with their parents. The highest proportion was
among 18- to 29-year-olds, for whom unemployment is particularly high, with
60.7% reported living at home.
This report shows
that the unemployment has a big effect on men’s living with their parents.
After I see that the economy is effective about that, I
think those Italian men are right about what they are doing. But still living
with your family even after a certain age is very unfamiliar thing for our country. We never break the
connection with our families but living with them always is kind of weird...
