Another example of how Chato's family is different, is shown when Chato is having a bellyache and his father things that he is faking it. He tells him, "Shut-up, crybaby-coward" (26). His father is not being very nice to him because he is sick.
Cheaters are becoming more common among young people. Three out of four students surveyed said that they have cheated in high school. This statistic shows that teachers and parents should be concerned about which direction these students are heading. The biggest influence on the act of students cheating is social institutions such as family, school, and mass media. These institutions all play roles on what a student values when it comes to the battle between academic honesty and dishonesty. Social
viewed by individuals as the centerpiece of sexual satisfaction. Recent research has delved into the concept of faking orgasm during sexual experiences and the motives and mechanisms people use to do so. In the present studies, faking orgasm is defined as the participant acting as though they had an orgasm when in fact they didn’t actually have one (Meuhlenhard & Shippee, 2010).

Hamlet, a well-known play written by Shakespeare is a story where a good amount of ink has been spilled. Hamlet outwardly acts mad to disguise a violent plan to avenge his murdered father. However, many wonder if Hamlet’s madness was real. Based off The article Hamlet’s Grief by Arthur Kirsh, I believe that Hamlet truly did only fake madness; any further instability in came from mourning and not a true mental illness. This Article discusses more than just Hamlet’s story and character but it does
New York Times, Karl Taro Greenfeld argues that due to all the new forms of communication and media we have all begun to fake cultural literacy. His article was aptly titled “Faking Cultural Literacy”, a bold statement coming from a person whose job is to not do so and providing a source of information.

Robert Elliot's "Faking Nature" ABSTRACT: Robert Elliot's "Faking Nature," (1) represents one of the strongest philosophical rejections of the ground of restoration ecology ever offered. Here, and in a succession of papers defending the original essay, Elliot argued that ecological restoration was akin to art forgery. Just as a copied art work could not reproduce the value of the original, restored nature could not reproduce the value of nature. I reject Elliot's art forgery analogy, and argue
reading or watching this play “was it, or was it not true that Hamlet was faking his insanity, really suffering, or maybe even both.” First, this is what insanity is: insanity is acting crazy, but not knowing that they’re acting crazy. Also, it’s going through a lot of stress at the same time causing you to act stranger then a normal person. Hamlet was not totally insane. It doesn’t fit. I’m not saying that Hamlet was faking the whole thing. I mean, having your dad die is bad, but to have your mom

Marche’s purpose in writing this article is to persuade readers to think that social media, specifically Facebook, is
on my TBR shelf. But with this book? There is a distinctively dull and painful ache that has yet to fade. I don’t know how else to describe it. I hurt, my heart hurts, my head hurts – everything hurts and every single part of me wants more of it. Faking Normal, as books of this topic usually are, is not easy to stomach. It is brutal, it is graphic, it will tear your heart into little tiny pieces and then dance over what remains while laughing maniacally. This book deals with a controversial, taboo
and there are many factors that can play a part in determining our gender and identity. The texts "Faking it" by Michael Chabon, "What makes a woman a Woman?" by Peggy Orenstein, "The Body Narrative of Transsexuality" by Jay Prosser share their own experiences on gender identity.

1 The Yellow Slip I saw it in his hand, the yellow slip. He walked by my classroom, sort of bent over and pale so I could tell that he wasn’t faking it. And if he’s not faking it, then he’ll most likely go home, and if he goes home then I won't get to see him on the bus. Boy, I hated that yellow slip in his hand, I hated it more than I hated it more than I would have hated it if it were in my hand, and I really don’t like getting sick. I was so bummed out that I couldn’t focus on my paper, we were
