when we try to make a given sound, hum a given tune, or say a given word (as examples of a more general theory), its the memory (or mental image) of the sound, tune, or word that controls its production not our muscles. And the correctness of the product depends only on the correctness of this image. Powers called these images reference signals. They are, in this case, sound images that have been either stored or neurally computed. So to speak a language perfectly, all we need is a complete set of perfect reference signals. And reference signals are acquired through perception not production. In other words, we dont learn to speak by speaking; we learn to speak by listening (with understanding).

Well, regarding the city, having more people than the countryside means it will have more garbage, so itll be more polluted. The countryside is greener and fresher. Thats why I like it.

Governments in the world spend large amounts of money to support arts. However, there are many other essential services, such as healthcare and education, that require urgent actions and subsidies. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

1. Large amounts of governments money have been spent to support arts. Still, some think that goverments should give more support to essential services, such as healthcare and education. This essay will discuss both views and recommend which should receive more money from the government.

2. Governments around the world have been giving substantial financial support to arts (or, giving arts a great deal of financial support). Yet, some argue that support should be redirected to other basic services, like healthcare and education. A discussion of both views will be presented in this essay along with a suggestion on which should be a higher priority for the government.

3. Arts have been receiving significant financial assistance from governments around the world. Yet, fundamental services, such as healthcare and education, are believed to deserve more attention and resources from the government. This essay will examine both aspects and suggest where the government should provide finance to.
