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.

Romashka [77]

Let's break this sentence down:

The Gerards consider their son a genius.

  • Prepositional phrases: There are no prepositional phrases since there isn't neither a preposition nor an object altogether.
  • The subject is <em>The Gerards.</em>
  • The verb within the sentence is <em>consider.</em>
  • There are two complements in the sentence which are the direct and object complement: <em>their son</em> is the direct object and <em>a genius</em> is the object complement. Remember to ask yourself what refers the verb of the sentence. Moreover, object compliments always follow a direct object to rename it or state what it has become. In order to analize the example above, you should ask yourself the following:
  1. What do the Gerards consider? <em>their son.</em>
  2. What do they consider about their son? <em>a genius.</em>

This allows the writer to have a bit more leeway when it comes to using other literary devices to make their points.</span>
