Question

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!

Write a journal entry of five to ten complete sentences. Prejudice occurs when people make judgments about others before getting to know them. Explain the theme of prejudice in The Miracle Worker. Give specific examples of prejudice in the play.

Answer 1

Gibson presents the theme in The Miracle Worker by the father who said that Helen can't learn anything and that if she was taught some discipline, then that was the only thing she was able to learn. Later in the story, Helen learned how to read and write. The father thought that this would never happen. The prejudice of the father could ruin Helen's life because if Anne had agreed with the father that Hellen was not capable of learning to read and write.

If we judge books by their covers, then we would not like many books, but if we were to read them, then we would soon learn to love them. The same thing happens in life, if we judge people by their appearance, then we would not like many people, but if we get past their appearance and learn more about them and get to know them, then we would learn that the way they look does not matter, we would learn to enjoy their company. Judging people by their appearance would mean that you would not make friends and would end up lonely. We can live happy lives and have people there to support us when we need them if we stop our prejudiced ways. Never, and I mean NEVER, judge a book by its cover.

We can clearly see that prejudice against people is a very serious and possibly dangerous problem. The three main reasons that are in this text are: (1) how Gibson has shown the theme in The Miracle Worker, (2) what the message is that Gibson is trying to show us through this theme, (3) and how prejudice can change and affect our every day lives. Judging one another's skin color (whether they are black, white, or even mixed) is one of the main problems of prejudice.

TAKE NOTE:

KiaKaniyah requested you not to copy their work word for word. You may copy mine, it is similar to theirs, but NOT word for word. Thank you. :)

Answer 2

First, we will start off with how Gibson presents the theme in The Miracle Worker. Gibson presents the them in The Miracle Worker by the dad would say that Helen is not capable of learning anything and that if she was taught some discipline then that was the only thing was capable of doing. Then later in the story we see that Helen has learned how to read and write. The father was always never thought that would ever happen. The prejudice of the father could ruin Helen's life because if Anne just agreed with the father that Hellen was not capable of learn to read and write.

Like they say don't judge a book by its cover. If we would judge books by it's cover than we would not like lots of books but if we read them then we would love them. Same as in our lives, if we judge people by how they look then we would not like lots of people but if we would know them a little closer then we would really like them. If we judge people by they look then we would have barely have any friends. If we want our live to be happy and joyful then we need to stop being prejudice.

In conclusion, As we can see prejudice is a very serious. The three reasons that were in this writing were how Gibson presents the theme in The Miracle Worker, what is the message Gibson is trying to present through this theme, and how prejudice can affect our lives. Although we didn't think prejudice could affect our lives but now we know prejudice is a serious thing.
