MUST-READ THE STORY Phineas Gage
kenny6666 [7]

At the beginning of the text, he is described as a polite, balanced, calm, and very rational employee. However, the accident changed his behavior, causing him to become rude, reckless, surly, and restless.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • The story shows that Phineas Gage was the foreman of railway construction.
  • One day, an explosion in the building caused a tamping iron to hit his head very hard, completely destroying one side of his brain.
  • Although this was a very violent accident, he survived, but the impact on his brain completely changed the way he behaved.

When he recovered from the accident, he went back to work, but his friends at work claimed he was a very calm, efficient, and respectful person, but the accident left him rude, rude, and inconsequential.
