Still Need to Share

This is the last post of the kind for today, I promise.

“The most important events of the XXth century were the two World Wars and the invention of the color TV.”

“The decade of the 60s is mostly known for how many drugs were taken.”

“The most important events of the XXth century were the revolutions in China and Iran.” (I agree they were important but why these two specifically? I now really wonder what the student’s Major is.)

“The Beatles were one of the most important phenomena of the century.” (Hear, hear!)

And the absolute winner: “The most important thing in the XXth century is Feminism because it changed the world for the better!!”

P.S. For those who keep worrying: in this particular assignment, I only grade the use of Spanish. Opinions are neither castigated nor rewarded.

  1. Sounds like the freshman English classes I taught. Since they were operating in their native language, the hilarity was much greater! But I was always kind, in spite of my sense of aggravation. In fact, I felt it was my duty to help them become less ignorant. Isn’t that what teachers are for?
