I think from the definitions that I composed above, philosophy is the getting that whenever proliferated and rehearsed in the network then it’s called belief system. In this way, on the off chance that somebody shares something that we as a whole comprehend or conviction, we can consider it a belief system. For instance, a gathering of individuals living close to the wild may share the belief system that it isn't shrewd to wander into the hedge alone and around evening time.

Simple or Progressive Perfect Forms

Straightforward or Progressive Perfect Forms There are two sorts of immaculate tenses; straightforward flawless tenses (present great, past great and future great) and dynamic impeccable tenses (present immaculate dynamic, past impeccable dynamic and future impeccable dynamic). The ideal structures are commonly used to speak to something that has occurred up to some other juncture. For instance: Present Subside has visited Paris twice. (In his life, up until now)Jane has been playing tennis for two hours (as of recently) Past They had lived in New York for a long time before they moved to Seattle. (up to the time they moved to Seattle)She had been reading for 4 hours when he showed up. (The four hours straightforwardly before he showed up) Future We will have completed the course around this time one year from now. (up to this time a year from now)I will have been laboring for 2 hours when he shows up tomorrow. (the two hours before he shows up tomorrow) Things being what they are, what are the contrasts between the straightforward and dynamic types of the ideal? All things considered, as a matter of first importance, make sure to remember the dynamic is just utilized with action words (see a weeks ago component for instances of non-activity or state action words). Another significant distinction is that we utilize the basic ideal structures to communicate completed QUANTITIES and the dynamic immaculate structures when we are focusing on the constant term of a particular activity referenced. Presently, lets investigate the particular contrasts between the two structures: Present Perfect Progressive Late movement: to stress the recency of a past action. we frequently use of late or as of late : Shes been buckling down as of late Emphasis on the term or length of an action : Jack has been painting for 4 hours. As of late completed action with a current outcome : Ive been working in the nursery, that is the reason my hands are so messy. No distinction in significance. Frequently the current impeccable dynamic and the current flawless can have a similar importance. This is regularly the situation with action words of living, occupation or business) : Ive been living in Leghorn for a long time. Or then again Ive lived in Leghorn for a long time. Present Perfect Uncertain time previously (understanding). Accentuation is on the finished activity at an inconclusive time previously. : Susans composed 3 books. Accentuation on QUANTITY : Ive read 300 pages of Tom Smiths most recent book. Term from past to introduce (see #4 of present immaculate dynamic) : Peter has worked for that organization for a long time. Here is a brilliant case of the distinction between the two structures when alluding to span of a movement when contrasted with amount: Hes been driving for 6 hours. Hes traveled 320 miles. Past Perfect Progressive Past impeccable dynamic is utilized to communicate CONTINUOUS movement up to a particular purpose of time previously. Model: They had been hanging tight for 2 hours before their companions at long last showed up. Past Perfect Past immaculate is utilized to communicate FINISHED action before a particular purpose of time previously. Model: He had just eaten when his significant other returned home. Future Perfect Progressive Future flawless dynamic is utilized to underline the time allotment or term of an occasion happening previously and up to another occasion later on. : By the time they show up, we will have been sitting tight for 4 hours! To accentuate the span of an action. : John will have been reading for a long time when he completes his test. Future Perfect Future impeccable is utilized to allude to an occasion finished before another future occasion or time. : By the time Mary completes this course, she will have taken 26 tests. To underline not to what extent something has taken, however that the activity is finished. : By the time he resigns, he will have labored for a long time.

Loose Ends

Loose Ends I know its been a very eventful week for you guys, waiting for decisions and dealing with the mail mixup. But its been one of my better weeks all term, so I thought Id tell you about it. Sometime early Sunday morning, I decided Id go to the middle of nowhere in Maine for brunch. I made the decision around 2am, went back to bed, and rose at the fine hour of 8:00 to get ready for the train. A shuttle + subway ride later, I was at South Station and hopped on Amtrak, arriving in the bustling metropolis of Saco in a couple of hours. I really wish Id taken a picture, because this place was *tiny*. The sidewalks on the main artery, Main Street, werent even plowed, but I managed to score a ham/sausage/cheese omelette at a hole in the wall called the Golden Rooster. This places claim to fame was a visit some years ago by Steven Tyler of Aerosmith they had his guest check framed on the wall, no kidding. I paid in two-dollar bills and half dollars, then set out to explore some of the town. Not a lot to see, but I filled a couple of hours just moseying down some random lanes and turning around at dead ends. All in all, a few hours well spent. :) Monday was host to the final session of 1.A24, my transportation seminar. Professor Wilson and Dr. Martland took us out to dinner at the Border Cafe in Harvard Square, where we had some good food and interesting discussion. Sad to see that seminar end, and incredible that its already mid-December. We shared some stories about recent MBTA snafus, including the construction effort between the Kendall and Park Street stops that forced weekend commuters to take a delayed, circuitous shuttle bus route. At least the buses were free. :) Tuesday morning wished 21W.784, Becoming Digital, farewell, with Professor Aden Evens playing the didgeridoo and providing us with donut holes. Loved that class Adens taking a sabbatical next semester to write a book, so wont see him around for a while. I also met with George, a sophomore with whom Ill be working on a Web project during IAP. That went really well, and Im continually amazed by how articulate and organized so many of the upperclassmen are. Later, in my final chem recitation, we culminated a long history of in-class heckling with the presentation of photos from the more hedonistic of our illustrious instructors college days. Ah, the wonders of Facebook. Laughs and snickers were had by all, and he even told us some stories of his college days once class was over. ;) See? You can get to know your TAs this well here. Wednesday brought the admissions mail mixup, which really wasnt a big deal at all because mail was promised to go out on or before Monday. Still, incredibly nervewracking for the staff, even though it wasnt their fault. I consoled a few applicants in a chat room, which was fun. :-) Thursday (today), I met Professor Sadoway what an awesome, down to earth, warm guy. He genuinely cares about his students and I was really impressed by how approachable he was. Thumbs up. I also had the immense privilege of seeing Ben Jones and his band, Tremulant, perform live at the Middle East in Central Square this evening. They were second on stage; how amazingly surreal to see Ben Jones, admissions officer, one of my favorite people, as Ben Jones, rock star, talented vocalist and guitarist. Had you asked me when I received my admission to MIT if I thought Id be at a Ben Jones concert almost exactly a year later, Id have looked at you like you were crazy. :) I went with Ben Gleitzman, and later, Blogger Bryan, Nance Bryan, Admissions Edmund, and Admissions Mari also showed up. An awesome night kudos to Tremulant! You guys rock. Tomorrow (Friday), all of the bloggers are meeting at Toscaninis (an ice cream joint at the intersection of Mass Ave and Main Street) at 4:30 for a blogger outing. Believe it or not, many of us have not met each other yet MIT may be a veritable cocoon of sorts, but social lives are sufficiently centered around ones living groups or campus geography that the folks on one end of campus just dont often see those on the other. :P The aim of this outing is to eliminate this injustice, promoting camaraderie in blogging. Sounds good. I go home next week and will be blogging about whats up over break. Im back in Cambridge a couple of days before my French class starts on January 9th. More later congrats to those accepted in early action, and to those deferred, youve got a good chance of getting in later!
