The human inhabitants of the island of Sorve have been told to evacuate following a human transgression against the Hydros indigenous. They search for the semi-mythical island of the Face of the Waters in a flotilla of ships because they are forbidden on all other islands.

Motion: E- learning is better than classroom setting, i need points to the topic for opposing the motion with explanation.
this is a debate and i need correct answers.
Perhaps you could talk about the benefits of face to face encounters, and how teachers have difficulty assessing your level of understanding when in an isolated environment such as E-learning. How Teachers cannot create a personal connection to the student, that would allow for a deeper understanding of the student, and more personalized help and attention.
Another point that could be brought out is the fact of social interaction. Speaking from experience as a home school student, E-learning is incredibly isolating. There is no interaction with other students outside of a little chat box.
E-learning is infinitely easier to cheat on. This website being proof of that.
Overall, E-learning simply isn't as enriching of a environment as public school is.

3. Chuck really wanted to get the new Game Box 9000, but the system cost $400 and he didn't have any money at all. So, Chuck did what any motivated teenager would do to earn money: lots and lots of work. He mowed lawns and raked leaves. He did extra chores and dug in the couch cushions for change. He collected and returned cans and bottles. After about a month of working and scrounging harder than he ever had, Chuck earned a little over $200, but the money was not coming quickly enough. Chuck was discussing his problem with one of his friends on the bus when an older kid named Jim overheard him. "Hey, Chucky," Jim said, "my uncle works at the video game store and he can get any video game system for half off. I can help you get your Game Box 9000." Chuck was so excited about getting the new Game Box that he didn't think twice. "Wow, half off? Then I can afford it!" Chuck was excited! The next day. he gave Jim his money. The following day he hoped to receive the Game Box, but Jim didn't bring it. "Yeah, I'm not going to see him until this weekend," Jim replied. Chuck remembered Jim promising him something else, but he was so happy to get such a great deal on the game console that he didn't want to push him. "Ok, great. Next week then." The week passed by very slowly for Chuck. He was so happy to see Jim the next week. He ran up to him with a big smile, but Jim didn't look happy. "Did you get it?" Chuck asked. Jim replied slowly, "Uh, yeah, I was going to get it, but I got robbed. So, your money's gone. I'm sorry." Chuck couldn't believe it. A whole month of saving down the drain. The tears ran down his cheeks.

Read the passage
People use distractions all the time. Whether it's a soothing song in the background of morning traffic or whether it's going to a movie to escape the ordinary feeling of the workweek, distractions are everywhere. But what happens when distractions become obsessions?
Many young people play video games as a way to distract or entertain themselves. However, many young people also become obsessed with video games. Young people need to be more responsible with their time and how they spend it. Playing video games is harmless until it becomes an addiction. Then, like anything else in excess, the distraction turns into the focal point of one's life.
According to 11th Annual MediaWise Video Game Report Card, "The majority of gamers between 6 and 18 years of age spend more than 20 hours a week playing video games. 40% of those say they play more than 30 hours a week gaming." That is an incredible number. This means that many young people who play video games spend as much time gaming as others spend at a part-time job.
Also, many gamers play indoors. Consider the statistic from 11th Annual MediaWise Video Game Report Card. This means that the majority of the people who play games play indoors. They rarely do any outside activities, including exercise.
In addition, most gamers who play video games play alone by themselves. When they do play games with others, it's usually done online because it's convenient. While they may interact with other gamers, rarely do they get to socialize with everyday people.
Not everyone who plays video games is compulsive. Many just play as a diversion. It's important for people to know that a diversion is just that, a temporary distraction. It isn't a career, it isn't family, and it isn't permanent.
What sentence could be added to persuade the audience that too much gaming is harmful?
A.
A lack of physical activity can lead to obesity and diabetes.
B.
The Sony PlayStation 3 is a much better game console than the Nintendo Wii.
C.
Sony said that they will try and meet the demands for the PlayStation 3 by the end of the year.
D.
There are many games available online that do not require a console to play.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Throughout the passage, the author takes the stance that too much gaming is unhealthy and is a bad obsession for young people.
Let's analyze the answer choices.
A.
This choice is correct. The passage states that "young people become obsessed with video games". The author also says that "many gamers play indoors...They rarely do any outside activities, including exercise." If a sentence about the harmful effects of no exercise was added, it would help support the argument that too much gaming is harmful.
B.
This choice is incorrect. This sentence has nothing to do with the fact that excess gaming is bad.
C.
This choice is also incorrect. A release date for the PlayStation 3 doesn't help persuade the readers that too much gaming is not good.
D.
This choice is also incorrect. Games without consoles do not support the argument that gaming in excess is bad.
The best choice is A: A lack of physical activity can lead to obesity and diabetes.
