Assignment: 2 paragraphs on Integrity based on the Emperor's Club

3 facts with 2 supporting details of each fact an opening and a closing...Does this satisfy the requirements? And, please do a quick proofreading. Thank you.

To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education. I think John Ruskin had it right when he said that. I think Mr. Hundert would agree, but obviously Sedgewick Bell, and his father did not. Bell, a rebellious student, in the Emperor’s Club, would have viewers think that cheating is ok. Bell is smart and capable, but it is easier to cheat than to study, so he does. Bell cheats publicly and he is not “outed,” proving that sometimes there are no consequences.

This is not about Bell making a mistake, he has made his life about lying. Later, he has the opportunity to redeem himself, yet he cheats again. When he is privately confronted by Hundert, he ridicules him as though his values are silly. Bell has no concern about the fall out of his dishonest behaviors. Obviously his cheating affects others when he takes the rightful spot of another in a contest. And, then worse, even when he becomes a father, his son witnesses his behavior. Bell and his fathers actions show that success is more important to them than integrity.

To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education. (BETTER IF REVERSED. "THE BEGINNING OF EDUCATION IS MAKING YOUR CHILDREN....") I think John Ruskin had it right when he said that. ("SAID"? WAS THIS A QUOTE? IF NOT A QUOTE, IT MIGHT BE BETTER TO USE TERM LIKE "EMPHASIZED".) I think Mr. Hundert would agree, but obviously Sedgewick Bell, (NO COMMA) and his father did not. Bell, a rebellious student, (NO COMMA)in the Emperor’s Club, would have viewers think that cheating is ok. ("OKAY" OR "ACCEPTABLE") Bell is smart and capable, but it is easier to cheat than to study, so he does. Bell cheats publicly and he is not “outed,” proving that sometimes there are no ("IMMEDIATE"? EVENTUALLY THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES.) consequences.

This is not about Bell making a mistake, (SEIMCOLON) he has made his life about lying (AWKWARD PHRASING). Later, he has the opportunity to redeem himself, yet he cheats again. When he is privately confronted by Hundert, he (WHICH "HE"? USE "BELL.") ridicules him as though his values are silly. Bell has no concern about the fall out ("EFFECT"?) of his dishonest behaviors. Obviously his cheating affects others (COMMA) when he takes the rightful spot of another in a contest. And, then worse, even when he becomes a father, his son (NAME?) witnesses his behavior. Bell and his fathers (POSSESSIVE) actions show that success is more important to them than integrity. (IF TALKING ABOUT FATHER AND SON, NEED TO MAKE DISTINCTION CLEAR AS TO WHICH BELL YOU ARE DISCUSSING.)

Since I am not aware of the story, I only proofread your article rather than assessing your logic. However, I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.

Your paragraphs touch on the theme of integrity in the movie "Emperor's Club" and provide a brief analysis of the character Sedgewick Bell and his actions. While your paragraphs convey your points effectively, there are a few suggestions for improvement:

Paragraph 1:
To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education. I agree with John Ruskin's words, and this sentiment seems to align with the perspective of Mr. Hundert in the Emperor's Club. However, it is clear that Sedgewick Bell and his father do not share this belief. In this movie, Bell, a rebellious student, presents cheating as an acceptable choice. Despite being smart and capable, he chooses the easier path of cheating rather than putting in the effort to study. Moreover, Bell's acts of cheating are done publicly, yet he faces no consequences for his actions.

Paragraph 2:
It is important to note that Bell's behavior is not just a one-time mistake; he has shaped his life around deceit. Even when given a chance to redeem himself, he chooses to cheat once again. When privately confronted by Hundert, Bell ridicules him and dismisses his values as trivial. Bell's lack of concern for the consequences of his dishonesty is evident when he takes someone else's rightful place in a contest, thus affecting others through his actions. Moreover, as a father, Bell's behavior sets a poor example for his son, further highlighting his prioritization of success over integrity.

Overall, the paragraphs address the topic of integrity in the Emperor's Club and provide relevant analysis of the character of Sedgewick Bell. Proofreading-wise, I would suggest clarifying certain sentences for greater coherence and fluidity.
