Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 204 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

A Report to the Academy

This story was one of my favorite because it turn out to be very interesting and it caught my attention from the very beginning. it was about a ape who developed human qualities in about 5 years just by observing and copping their lifestyle.it was very interesting to see how an ape can do things like interacting with other humans, smoking, drinking and many other human like qualities in such a short period of time. it takes us human years and years to learn and get better at being our self or i should say getting better at, "what makes us human".  from reading this story it makes us think if an ape can easily imitate us and do the things we can do, what really makes us humans ? what is so different from us and other animals such as an ape.
