Answer:

Arousal theory

Explanation:

One of the motivational theories is known as the arousal theory. The arousal theory explains that the individual performs certain actions to maintain their physiological arousal level. Such arousal level pushes the individual to opt for certain activities which would prove to be exciting and which would stimulate their thoughts. To attain a higher level of arousal people attempt to do exciting activities, while people with a lower level of arousal level look for relaxing and soothing activities. In the above situation, Leo and Lila attempted to murder the child to attain a higher level of arousal.

Gennadij [26K]

Auden's "Musee des beaux arts" emphasizes the contrast between suffering and calmness:  "While someone else is eating, or opening a window or just walking dully along." contrasts with the phrase "That even the dreadful martyrdom must run its course".  The poem's tone is of resignation.  It uses contrast to explain the nature of humanity: "How, when the aged are reverently, passionately waiting /For the miraculous birth, there always must be /Children who did not specially want it to happen." The <u>aged</u> are reverent and passionate, while the <u>children</u> have an opposite feeling.

Brueghel's "landscape with the fall of icarus" uses contrast in many ways: the painting seems to be divided in two, the earth/ the sky and sea.  The sky seems to be very expressive, with details such as the clouds and the light that add drama to the landscape, the presence of Icarus falling from the sky, transforms this space into the space of fantasy, myth and suffering, while the earth is quite the opposite.  The earth, depicts, everyday actions, work, and a human being completely consumed by labor. The viewer sees and pays attention to the fall of Icarus, while the farmer doesn't, there is a sense of helplessness and the farmer's indifference makes the scene even more dramatic.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

If everyone was the same then we would probably get on well. We would all have the same opinions so people wouldn't argue with each other but also if everyone was the same then we wouldn't grow as people or as a human race

It is because of our diversity that we are where we are today. If we didn't have that then we would probably be very behind as a society but relationships would thrive.
