<p>Is it important to try to understand people's motivations before judging their actions? </p>
<p>If your answer is no,what examples will you use?</p>
<p>Yes,</p>
<p>Possible examples:
Beloved - Sethe murdering own daughter
Julius Caesar - Brutus/Cassius murdering Caesar for the good of Rome
Great Gatsby - Jay Gatsby</p>
<p>Dunno what I would use if the answer is no. I disagree with that stance.</p>
<p>For Yes: Ms. Dubois from To Kill a Mockingbird is a fantastic choice for an example. So is Danny Reuven from The Chosen by Chaim Potok. These are two books that I can probably use for any SAT prompt, btw... very versatile. I think that everyone "should" answer YES to this question. A NO answer is hard to find examples for. I can bet most of the 6 scores if not practically all answered yes.</p>
<p>yah. that's the same as what I feel-----sometimes,there is a better choice of stance .</p>
<p>any other one:
Is it more important to do work that one finds fulfilling or work that pays well? </p>
<p>my example for yes: Edna Pontellia,Martin Luther,Rosa Parks.</p>
<p>Yes to what - work that one finds fulfilling?</p>
<p>I think for that one it may be fitting to use a personal example as well, or maybe a more generic example (like comparing musicians or something to investment bankers).</p>
<p>Those are good examples. Others supporting your position - Galileo, who was put on house arrest for the scientific research he did, practically any famous saintly-figure (Ghandi, Mother Teresa) who remained poor because they did charity work and spent their lives helping others.</p>
