Marti And Luci Summary

560 Words3 Pages

After reading the text form Rose about both Marti and Lucia, I think rose is trying to bring to teacher and counselors attention that they have classrooms full of unique students from different backgrounds and therefore different views on life. I feel that Rose want teacher and counselors to not just understand this but acknowledge this. In Lucia’s case, when the teacher gave the book, he should have explained that the book is just one persons opinion (Szaszs) and that he knows that everyone will not agree with what Szasz is saying, and that it is perfectly fine if they don’t share the same views as Szasz.

So he did what came as second nature to him and any other psychologist; he decided to get to the root of the problem.

These are the things that make the person who they are today and explain a lot of why they may do some of the things they do. If Rose had a background in math instead of psychology, there is a huge chance that it wouldn’t have crossed his mind to really sit and analyze Martia to get to the root of why she Plagiarized her paper. He wouldn’t have known that she just didn’t understand that what she did wrong, and why she seems to not understand. He wouldn’t have known about her bringing up or father. None of that would have come

  • The Importance Of Setting In Alice Munro's Regal Beatings

The storyteller herself, whose point of view is just about at one with Rose's, notes that it is not the specifics existing apart from everything else which matter: "It is the battle itself that matters, and that can't be halted, can never be ceased, shy of where it must go, now" (17).
