| I got the technology question. My overall thesis was that all these tools prevent humans from living as nature intended. My supports:
1. The futuristic society in Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451 (only book that came to mind at the time) and how the panoramic TV screens and gadgets distract Montag's wife (Millie?) from loving her husband and being a feeling human, how all those tools end up living her life for her, etc
2. Unhealthy effects of people not commuting, health issues, obesity
3. Decreased standards in education and brain enrichment, with calculators and auto spell-check doing all the thinking for students nowadays
I filled up nearly all the two pages, I had about 2 or 3 lines left over. But I made sure my handwriting was legible and used proper sentence structure and varied vocabulary....Based on that, and also my supports, what would you give me if you were SAT readers?
Thanks all, and everyone else had really good references too, some I would have never thought of (Amish) but brilliant!
