82. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and

assignment below: (2008.1)

this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your

reading, studies, experience, or observations.

83. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and

assignment below: (2008.1)

引文: Newness has become our obsession. Novelty is more interesting to us than

continuing with whatever is "tried and true." We discard the old so we can

acquire the most recent model, the latest version, the newest and most improved

formula. Often, we replace what is useful just because it is no longer new. Not

only with material goods but also with cultural values, we prefer whatever is

the latest trend.

引文: Often we see people who persist in trying to achieve a particular goal,

even when all the evidence indicates that they will be unlikely to achieve it.

When they succeed, we consider them courageous for having overcome impossible

obstacles. But when they fail, we think of them as headstrong, foolhardy, and

bent on self-destruction. To many people, great effort is only worthwhile when

it results in success.

Adapted from Gilbert Brim, “Ambition”

引文: It is better to try to be original than to merely imitate others. People

should always try to say, write, think, or create something new. There is little

value in merely repeating what has been done before. People who merely copy or

use the ideas and inventions of others, no matter how successful they may be,

have never achieved anything significant.

引文: Until fairly recently, technological innovations and inventions were

intended to serve basic human needs or desires. Today, however, the most

important and urgent problem confronting us is no longer the satisfaction of

basic needs. The primary purpose of modern technology is to solve the unintended

problems caused by the technology of years past.

Adapted from Dennis Gabor, Innovations: Scientific, Technological, and

Social

Assignment: Is there any value for people to belong only to a group or groups

with which they have something in common? Plan and write an essay in which you

develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning

and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

84. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and

assignment below: (2008.3)

Assignment: Are organizations or groups most successful when their members

pursue individual wishes and goals? Plan and write an essay in which you develop

your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and

examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.
