Answer:

sorry bro

Explanation:

Knowing that the writer has a purpose (as well as specifically discerning it) is very important when reading an article or text. It deepens the reader’s ability to make sense of the article or text, and by extension deepens the reader’s knowledge of human psychology in general.

Interpretation is a complex skill that involves the capacity to see a thing for not only what it seems to represent, but also what it, moreover, signifies or implies by virtue of the so-called “underlying message.” The importance of it is, herein, both structural and psychological. It is structural in the sense that the point of the article is the author’s purpose. They are one and the same. The prose is the vehicle to deliver it. Purpose is the end point of the developing concepts within the article. Knowing the purpose makes sense of the article — it holds it together. Even in the writing of this, I must remind myself that my purpose is to answer the question above. If what I am saying in these paragraphs deviate from that, it is only my remembering the purpose that can help to keep me on track. The same device of using purpose as comprehension holds for the reader.

It is psychological in the sense that humans convey our emotional experiences or motivations through conceptual representation rather than essentially outright and directly. In this, we have the remarkable capacity for double speak. We can say one thing (or lots of things) without really meaning to convey that at all. The surface expression is meant to evoke emotional and imaginary responses that serves the unspoken agenda if not outright hidden agenda. In short, writing can be as manipulative as speaking. Discerning the particular purpose of the speaker/writer is part of the art of interpretation. Thus, its importance.

It might give you some additional insights about why the article is written the way it is. Is it objective and fair to all sides? Does it lean toward one point of view or another? Is it trying to sell you something (or someone)? Is it just PR fluff? Misinformation? Propaganda? Alarmist? Political? Nutjob conspiracy theorists?. It helps a great deal to understand what you're reading if you know something about its author(s) and publisher(s).

The author’s purpose is the reason that the article was written, the message of the article, the audience, and what the writer wants the audience to think and feel. If the author is denouncing the BlackLivesMatter movement, try to figure out why he or she is doing so. What is that person’s belief, what are the values, why the effort? Does the author want the audience to be angry? depressed? to feel superior?

You have to infer the purpose (in other words, guess, and look for clues that you are right).

"I moved like a sleepwalker" (Weisel 87) (the novel Night)
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

In my opinion, sleepwalker is much alike to daydreaming.

Explanation:

Your mind is somewhere else but your presence is in a place you do not know you're still in. In life, we are sometimes sleepwalkers; not literally walking while asleep, but continuously going with the flow of life without knowing the purpose why you are still striving to live everyday. And I think it's normal, it happens to everyone. Maybe time will come you'll also realize your purpose.

how do you believe one's socioeconomic status, cultural backgrounds and gender influnce their perception of the world?
Bezzdna [24]

These three aspects are determinant in one's perception of the world. Although they don't shape every aspect of it, they have a major role. The socioeconomic status refers to the social standing or class an individual belongs. Depending on his/her status, the individual will face different problems or events during his life. As a consequence some concerns may become general to people belonging to a determinate status. The cultural background, the cultural context in which a person develops, including the heritage and primary education, will also teach the individual how to behave and how to respond to certain things. From spititual things (believing in god or buda) to praxis (eating pasta or rice), cultural background will help shape the way someone is. The same happens with gender or the social construction definition of men and women, if you are a boy you would probably be taught to be brave, active and dominant, if you are a woman, you will be taught to be delicate and sentimental.

These three aspects work together to shape our perception of the world, they don't only shape it, they also shape the way others see and treat you.
