Holly Nelson-Allen English 101 3:30 Textual Analysis Essay Draft Garrett Hardin (1915-2003) was a professor of biology at the University of California-Santa Barbara and labeled himself a human ecologist. In “Lifeboat Ethics: The Case against Helping the Poor,” Hardin utilizes pathos, logos, and a combination of the two through metaphor, personalization, and dehumanization to persuade the reader that wealthy nations shouldn't assist impoverished nations. Hardin uses metaphor heavily throughout the essay. “Metaphorically each rich nation can be seen as a lifeboat full of comparatively rich people. In the ocean outside each lifeboat swim the poor of the world, who would like to get in, or at least to share some of the wealth.” (Hardin 4, pg 377).

Social facilitation Describe and discuss research into social facilitation? In 1996 Zajonc wanted to find out how having audience would affect performance in a simply and difficult task, he used cockroaches and got them to do a simple and difficult task which was to run down a straight clear pipe away from a light they could smell and see the audience if present and then he got them to do the same but put in a right turn into the pipe to make it more difficult. Zajonc found that on the simple task the cockroaches with the audience did it fast by 8 seconds on average but on the difficult task the one with the audience did it on average 20 seconds slower. Alone With audience Simple task (on average and in seconds) 41 33 Difficult task (on average and in seconds) 110 130 Zajonc study shows and supports mere presence theory he suggested people work better when aroused but not if they get to aroused, this can be shown by the Yerkes-Dodson curve that if you get to aroused your performance will go down and deteriorate but there Is an optimum point of arousal where performance will be best. The simple task is a dominant response so won’t raise arousal levels at all without the audience so the cockroaches alone wouldn’t do as well but with an audience they get raised to a near opium level because the task and the audience isn’t too much so will try and perform better but on the more difficult task with the audience they get over aroused because with the non-dominate response added in it gets too much so they do worse because there inhibited by both but the cockroach that is alone arousal level gets put near optimum level so raises they performance.
Daniel Tkachenko When Eighner's savings ran out he began dumpster diving with his dog Lizbeth It was his everyday experience and he is talking about how findings of objects is like an urban art.
