Read the following excerpt from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics. As it happens, Feldman’s accidental study provides a window on

to a form of cheating that has long stymied academics: white-collar crime. (Yes, shorting the bagel man is white-collar crime, writ however small.) It might seem ludicrous to address as large and intractable a problem as white-collar crime through the life of a bagel man. But often a small and simple question can help chisel away at the biggest problems. Despite all the attention paid to rogue companies like Enron, academics know very little about the practicalities of white-collar crime. The reason? There are no good data. A key fact of white-collar crime is that we hear about only the very slim fraction of people who are caught cheating. Most embezzlers lead quiet and theoretically happy lives; employees who steal company property are rarely detected. What purpose does the “bagel man” serve in this argument? to shift the focus toward a specific man to entertain the reader with a funny story to show the seriousness of cheating to shed light on white-collar crime

Explain why prose must express complete ideas\
Deffense [45]
Prose must explain complete ideas because it enables the reader to comprehend the authors vision, and thought process as well as the emotional state that the author wants the character(s) to have. This is in the case of fiction.
When it comes to nonfiction it enables the reader to understand the material or the argument presented in front of him or her. Furthermore, arguments when presented with evidence which incorporates complete ideas and knowledge of the topic in question. It gives the reader a proper explanation and answers to the questions that may arise whilst reading the informative material at hand.

Asenath was surprised and she uttered that he must be educated. During their walk, madam POTIPHAR lamented Joseph is never on hand when needed when Asenath told madam POTIPHAR to send for him so he could show them through the vineyard. Telling her that it would be useless as he always has affairs of his own on hand.
