In the "Meatrix", the maker shows us that how factory farming affect our life today. The family farms are less and less now. Most of them are detroyed and created to factory farming, because the company want to make more profit.
The maker use this idea from the movie "The Matrix", because they spread similar imformation to viewers. Both of them are the message movie. They want to show us how the world becomes today when people begin to rely on technology too much. Both of their changes are negative. In the "Matrix", people are controller by "The Matrix" and live in a unreal world. The director of the movie show us that how Neo and Mophuis save the world, and how do they help people escape the unreal world. In the "Meatrix", the maker use similar sinces

Blog Entry 13: The Response to "The Matrix" (Rewrite)
"The Matrix" is a message movie which states that human beings become slavers of technology, because they rely on them very much. In the movie, there is a scene interests me. It is about Mophius asked Neo to make a choice between taking red pill or blue pill. If he takes red pill, he will see the real world. If he takes blue pill, he will retain in the current existence. Finally, he takes the red one. If I were Neo, I would have made a same choice as him; because I want to know the truth and do not want to have a fictional life under a lie.
In the movie, it describes that in the end of 20th century most people are controlled by a computer program which is called "The Matrix". They do not know that they are slavers of "The Matrix". They live in an unreal world which is created by "The Matrix". However, there is a group of people who know the truth. They try to save the world. In the group, there is a man called Mophius. He is the only person who knows the code which can help people. He uses his entire life to look for "the one" who will join him and help people out of "The Matrix". When Neo comes out, he is the one who is looked for by Mophius. Moreover, Neo passes many tests and becomes a real hero who really can save the world.
I already mentioned above in my first paragraph. If I were Neo, I would have taken the red pill and went to see "how far the rabbit hole goes".
I will take the red pill, because I want to face the truth even though it may hurt me or make me mad. Like Neo, even though he could not accept the truth firstly when he saw the real world. He did not regret what he chose. At least, he knows the truth and makes the choice by himself. It also reminds me of an experience which is about my best friend lied to me.
I remember that it happened at when I was in high school. I fell in love with a boy who was not single, but I did not know before. He lied to me that he did not have a girl friend. And I believed him. My best friend knew the truth earlier, but she did not tell me either, and even she lied to me. She said that she did it, because she wanted to protect me from the sadness. She might be right, but I think that she did not consider what I really want. If I had a choice to choose at that time, like Neo, I would like her to tell me the truth. Even though I would be sad and could not accept it firstly, I did not regret that what I did.
In addition, I choose red one; because I do not want to have a fictional life and lived in a unreal world. For example, my best friend which I mentioned above. She said that she wanted me happy so that she told a lie. However, I do not think I will happy if I was lied by my friend. It really hurts my feeling. It made me did not believe my friends easily at a period of time. If she told me the truth, maybe I would still have been sad; but at least I could learn to how to fix the problwm by myself. That is also why I choose the red one.
Overall, I will prefer the red one as same as Neo; because we both want to know the truth and do not want to have a fictional life. The truth may hurt us, but both of us learn something from what we experieced and macture after.

Blog Entry 12: Reflection and Evaluation
Today is the first day to come back to school after spring break. After I wrote 11 pieces of essay, I reviewed my essays from 1 to 11. I found that my writting is better than before. I am not nevous anymore when I take the exam. My thoughts is clear, and I can move ahead when I write my paper essays.
I know that it needs a long time for me to improve my writing skill, because English is my second lanuage. I cannot success in a short time. And sometimes I will be too worried about the result of the exam, so there was a period of time that I stoped in a spot so that I cannot move on. In that time I was so sad, but my professor helped me a lot. Now I am be better than before. Throught out my essay, I divide it into three parts to say here. They are the beginning, the body and the ending.
In the beginning of my essay, it is introduction. It is about a short claim which I understand from an assignment. It is hard for me to find the claim of the author, because there are many words in the assignment that I do not know. Therefore, it usually takes me a long time to read an assignment and understand what it say at all. This is I need to improve in my writing.
In the second paragraph of my essay is usually the summary of the assignment. It also belongs to my beginning of my essay. Sometime I did well in this part, but sometimes not. It means that I need to pratice. In the end of this paragraph, I often show my claim to the assignment. And the last sentence I will write a connection to next paragraph.
In the body, I usually wrote my experience directly before. I did not know I need to write a central sentence first in my first sentence. I often skipped this parts, and I did not give the points to explain why I had this claim. Now I know that I need to give at least two points to explain my claim.
In addition, I did not use my personal experience in my essay before. And my tone of my essay, I did not use the first person "I" to write my essay. Now I also know that it is better to use my personal expriences in my exampl and to be a first person to write my opinion.
Furthermore, sometimes I did not connect well between my experience and my claim. It makes me cannot move ahead. And I often fogort to add an connection of the author's claim.
In the end of my essay, I think I did well in this part, because I often went back to the author's claim. I need to be careful that I cannot add an new experience and claim here.
