Rationale

For the part 2 of my English class we studied the language and mass communication. For a better understanding of this theme we saw the “Social Network”, which is a movie about the life of Mark Zuckerberg, CEO and founder of Facebook, a famous webpage.

Now my written task is based on the movie "Social Network" in addition with my own thoughts about ambition. Basically what I did is a speech which its main theme was how ambition can affect the relations with the ones that are beside you such as family or friends tanking the main idea if the movie and explain what it wants to transmit, which in this case was the sacrifices you have to make to achieve your highest point in life. I tried to engage the audience by making them to feel identified with all the situations he talks about, so I also tried to do this giving the example of Mark: “This story begins in this exact university Mark was one of you in the past a imperturbable and brilliant student” so the audience could feel as part of the speech.

I think that I did achieve the objective of the part 2 and also understand what is the mass media and communication and what relation does it have with the language. We did achieve this objective by different ways such as analyzing songs, texts, and videos. And it´s this activity that made me conscious about how this mass media works and how the people that controls the media has the power and responsibility to use this very carefully, because it can easily affect our point of view about a specific theme.
