Short reading "Do We Respond Better Under Pressure?"

English
1 answer:
loris [4]2 years ago
6 0

The author's argument is that pressure does not improve our productivity, but makes us start to act using less of our potential.

As counterpoints for those who believe that pressure is good, the author establishes that:

  • Pressure causes stress.
  • Stress prevents rational thinking.
  • The lack of rationality generates thoughtless and flawed actions.
  • Pressure causes haste, which prevents people from exploring their potential.

<h3>How can we identify pressure when writing?</h3>

The pressure to write can present itself in thoughts about the quality of the writing, the difficulty of thinking, and the deadlines for finishing the text. However, these pressures can be different for different writers, as this is very much related to each person's personality and insecurities.

Why did nick ansom and gustavo zermeno honor hussle with a mural on the basketball court?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Nick Ansom <em>(CEO of the Venice Basketball League)</em> and Gustavo Zermeno honored<em> Nipsey Hussle</em> with a mural in order to pay homage to him after he died from the shooting incident. According to Ansom, it was meant to say "thank you" to the rapper who was considered to be<u> on the peak of his career in basketball.</u> People visit the mural in order to take a picture of it as a way of remembering him, while others simply bow their heads to grieve.

Explanation:

Nipsey Hussle was an American rapper, entrepreneur and activist who died when he was shot outside his clothing store on <em>March 31, 2019.</em>

Since many people were seen to pay homage to him by painting, Ansom realized that Hussle's death was connecting people together.<u> It was helping</u><em><u> "murals"</u></em><u> revive.</u> Thus, he called Gustavo Zermeno, an artist, to design a<em> mural </em>which was to be painted in a basketball court located a few blocks from where Hussle was shot.

6. Which one of the following statements is true regarding paragraphs?
N76 [4]
The answer is B. Although it may seem the other answers are correct as well, in fact they are not. A 'complex paragraph' is indeed one which explains multiple sides of an issue, but favors one, thus only one main topic is represented. It doesn't really matter where the topic sentence is placed - it can be anywhere in the paragraph. However, it is traditionally placed in the first sentence, although that rule isn't written in stone - the topic sentence can also be placed at the end of the paragraph. Therefore, we are left with only one option, and that is B, 'a paragraph should have one main topic'.
