I'm writing an essay on Freud's theory of the unconscious mind, give me any tips, pointers, any sort of criticism on how I can i

mprove my introduction.
Freud’s Theory and the Sniper

Tick, tick, tick, tock. Tick tick tick-BANG The children scream. Their teacher is gone. And so is half her face. The flesh and bone are exposed, the skin sloughing off at the edges. Her jaw is shattered. Blood splatters all over as more shots ring out. The room is quiet. Tears puddle at the feet of the intruder. One last shot rings out as the screen cuts to black.

Freud’s theory of the unconscious mind is one that intrigues many. Composed of three main instincts, they play a role in our everyday decisions and reactions. One has been what has guided all out of infancy and has been with since. The other restrains the first and contradicts the third. The third keeps both in check. The first is Id. They represent wants like that of a child. They will get it regardless of the conditions.

Ego is the second. They keep the child at bay with logic, explaining to them why they cannot obtain something. The third is the child’s compassion. Young as they are, they’re brimming with kindness. They tell apart wrong from right and Ego explains how and why.

In the case of O'Flaherty's soldier, it’s drastically different. He is not simply a soldier, but a warrior of the shadows. One swift pull of the trigger, and down the bodies drop. And no remorse drags at the soul who aimed and fired. That is until he’s met his match. The behavior mentioned by Freud could be applied to the sniper through his thoughts, feelings, and actions in the story by O'Flaherty.

Any bs about something else to get points gets you reported.

The introduction of an essay should be a short paragraph, where you present the main theme of the essay, the subject you will discuss and your positioning in relation to the essay's theme.

An introduction should be about 5-6 lines long, as the purpose of the introduction is to give a quick introduction to the subject covered.

Remember that an essay must be done as follows:

  • Introduction: Brief presentation of the subject, theme and author's position. This author's position is the thesis statement and is essential to support the arguments covered in the essay. If your essay is not argumentative, you can delete the thesis statement.

  • Body: It must be done with two or three paragraphs, where the author of the essay presents the elements that make up the theme of the essay, or presents arguments and opinions on this topic. These paragraphs must present sentences that prove that the author's ideas are true and must be considered efficient.

  • Conclusion: It should be done in a short paragraph, reinforcing the importance of the theme of the essay, summarizing the content covered in the body of the essay and reaffirming the author's position.

PLEASE HELP!!

After reading Chapter 4 of the novel "The Great Gatsby," by F. Scott Fitzgerald, we can say that the flashback contributes to the meaning of the story in the following manner:

B. Gatsby reveals he is aware of the stories people tell about him.

D. Because some details are ridiculous, while others seem true, Gatsby remains a mystery.

<h3>What happens in Chapter 4 of "The Great Gatsby"?</h3>
  • At the beginning of Chapter 4, Jay Gatsby picks the narrator Nick up to got to lunch with him. As he drives, Gatsby begins to talk to Nick and tell him about his life. Since Gatsby is a mysterious character, this revelation is most welcome.
  • First, Gatsby reveals he is aware of the stories people tell about him, as we can see in the passage:

"'I don't want you to get a wrong idea of me from all these stories you hear.' So he was aware of the bizarre accusations that flavored conversation in his halls."

  • Second, Gatsby's story is so poorly told, the details so carelessly included, that Nick can't help but laugh at their absurdity:

"... and I wondered if there wasn't something a little sinister about him, after all. [...] With an effort I managed to restrain my incredulous laughter."

  • However, Gatsby produces some evidence - a war medal and a picture. Nick is now utterly confused. The story still sounds absurdly made up, but the evidence is right there, in his hands, which makes at least part of it seem true.

With the information above in mind, we can choose options B and D as the best ones.
