How does this image continue This image is maintained by Kyoko Mori when she asserts that she cannot knit a sweater because the patterns will confuse her. This happens after she narrates of her experience, knitting a mitten to the German woman that she met. This image is also continued when she made an asymmetrical sweater with one sleeve being more extensive than the other. She also talks of her first homec sewing project being no better than the mittens meaning that the project was as bad as the mitten situation. She also acknowledges that there is the spirit in her knitting life of laziness and overachieving, and that is why a voice in her will say that she won’t try something because it doesn’t come naturally to her. Mittens emerge as an essential part of the essay’s theme in ways such as the regard of Latvia’s tradition for girls to make mittens from a young age to start early on her dowry chest. During the wedding, mittens were distributed to all participants. Also, Mori ultimately decides to reconcile to…

Amazon’s recruitment process Question 1 Amazon’s recruitment process is well designed in America to ensure the acquisition of talented staff and sustain the turnover rate (Antoun, et al., 2016). The Amazo has been applying multiple ways for assessing candidates’ performance and skills both in the USA and UK. In America, Amazon often approaches candidates from LinkedIn, followed by two telephonic interviews. Candidates must go through written tests in both America and the UK. Amazon has also been evaluating candidates’ judgmental and rational approaches by asking them technical questions by using online software in both countries (Phillips, et al., 2001). These questions are based on arithmetical coding and intelligence-based issues. After endeavoring of all mentioned rounds, candidates must proceed with multiple technical rounds, hiring manager round and HR round in America. However, in the UK, the overall recruitment process is similar, but its online application system might make it distinct where the candidate can approach Company by sending their resumes (O’Connor, 2013).

“Do today’s Olympics and other world championships perform the same social functions as the ancient Greek Olympic and other Panhellenic games?” Modern Olympics are but an innovation of the Ancient Greek Olympics and other Panhellenic games (Donnelly, 2016). However, according to some scholars, recent games are purely different from Ancient games. Sports have been made more democratic to the extent of being placed on an international stage. In ancient times, the idea of amateur competition and international state games was not in existence. Also, there were fewer sports disciplines, such as horse racing and athletic contests. Finally, it is critical to note that these games were a dedication to the gods. Therefore, a series of ritual events, which include prayers, processions, and sacrifices, accompany the activities. The paper explores some of the Ancient societal functions that have been upheld or abandoned by the modern Olympics. The article begins by highlighting one of the attractive characteristics that distinguish the modern Olympics from the Ancient Greek Olympics. The Ancient Greek Olympic and the Panhellenic games were firmly rooted in religious beliefs. Ancient…

Public Transport Vs. Private Transport. Who does not depend on various means of transport to travel from one place to another?

Well, there are many activities like jobs, businesses, and other things that make people choose different means of transportation to their destinations. Either way, one is supposed to select a specific means of transport. Among the means of transport commonly used are public and private.

The Danger of a Single Story The course of one’s life is not governed solely by the choices they make but by other factors some of which are beyond the control of humanity. However, many stories have been used to portray the fact that humanity can alter or even change the course of their lives by engaging in certain actions or making certain choices. This misnomer is perfectly explained in Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s TED Talk “The Danger of a Single Story’. Herein, she explained how entire communities are judged or defined based on one narrative (TED TALKS). Similarly, one of the Arabian Nights tales called ‘The Seven Sea Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor’ has also played an important part in my life because of the inherent irony. Unlike the story, man cannot succeed solely by wandering in adventurous life expeditions. Hard work and intelligent planning are important aspects of the process and goal. The Arabia Nights tale of ‘The Seven Sea Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor’ involves a poor sailor who is accompanied by his brother and several close friends…

In school and life, I have applied my parent’s teachings to differentiate right from wrong and pursue anything l believe l can achieve. Besides, I have grown up feeling the…
