Why does the author most likely emphasize the size of New York City ?

English
1 answer:
Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
7 0
The author emphasizes the size of New York City to show that it's actually quite small compared to nature and the ecosystem. The author emphasizes the "colossal" size of New York as an ironic source with the purpose of showing that even the strongest concrete city can be drawn by the power of mother nature itself.

Compose a seven to nine sentence response to the prompt: How would you compare Zimbardo’s argument that situations cause people
8_murik_8 [283]

In the first text, Zimbardo argues that people are neither "good" or "bad." Zimbardo's main claim is that the line between good and evil is movable, and that anyone can cross over under the right circumstances. He tells us that:

"That line between good and evil is permeable. Any of us can move across it....I argue that we all have the capacity for love and evil--to be Mother Theresa, to be Hitler or Saddam Hussein. It's the situation that brings that out."

Zimbardo argues that people can move across this line due to phenomena such as deindividualization, anonymity of place, dehumanization, role-playing and social modeling, moral disengagement and group conformity.

On the other hand, Nietzsche in "Morality as Anti-Nature" also argues that all men are capable of good and evil, and that evil is therefore a "natural" part of people. However, his opinion is different from Zimbardo in the sense that Nietzsche believes that judging people as "good" and "bad" is pointless because morality is anti-natural, and we have no good reason to believe that our behaviour should be modified to fit these precepts.
