Wallace arises the readers’ awareness to think deeply about the issue of eating lobsters. He starts off the essay with a detailed description of Main Lobster Festival and a variety of lobster dishes. He briefly introduced the history of eating lobster and then extended the content to the ways of cooking a lobster from a living creature to a dish served on the table. Within the essay, as a fair corresponded of the complex “animal-cruelty-and-eating issue “, Wallace introduces us the idea of a lobster’s preference. While Maine Lobsters Promotion Council claims that lobsters has no cerebral cortex, which “in humans is the area of the brain that gives the experience of pain.” Wallace contends that this claim is still either false or fuzzy.
He quickly establishes his ethos, and logos adding facts and credibility that will make one feel like their genuinely attending the Maine Lobster Festival. He continues helping the reader visualize every detail of the festival. From listing the wide variety of lobster dishes, to citing where to find the winning recipe of the amateur cooking competition, “…the MLF’s Main Eating Tent, where something over 25,000 pounds of fresh-caught Maine lobster is consumed after preparation in the World’s Largest Lobster Cooker near the grounds’
Though the Japanese think the dolphin killings are fine, many others do not. As someone who has always loved animals, I believe that the dolphins killings should stop. The Japanese fishermen use a technique for capturing dolphins called drive fishing. Motorized boats circle around the dolphins and disorient them by creating a "wall of sound". Swimming frantically, they are driven to the shore and then trapped overnight in a small cove.
Written by Nickelodeon In the ocean, there is a town called Bikini Bottom. The residents of Bikini Bottom are all fish. But there is a certain fry cook named Spongebob Squarepants. Just getting a job at Bikini Bottom's most popular restaurant The Krusty Krab, he lives a crazy life with his hard-headed neighbor, and friend, Patrick. His next door Neighbor Squidward is a sarcastic, boring squid who can't stand Spongebob and Patrick.
In the movie there were many connections such as the walrus and the carpenter story, Alice's encounter with Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, and the white rabbit referring to Alice as Marianne instead of her actual name. If you have seen the movie Alice in Wonderland, you most likely remember the story about the walrus and the carpenter. The duo is trying to find oysters for a meal and the carpenter seeks for them and finds multiple oysters. After that the walrus is very laid back and tricks the oysters to come over to his place. While the walrus is doing this, the carpenter is preparing so they could have a feast that night.
The First way that humor strengthens Sedaris’s argument is by making himself likable to the readers. In ‘humor in an Argument “Lunsford, Ruszkiewicz, and Walters note ,”In fact, a little self-deprecation can endear writers or speaker to the toughest audiences.” (396). In this quote the editors illustrate how it is essential to get attention of most readers to keep them interested. In “The Chicken in The Henhouse” Sedaris jokes about his fears of being around people, as a result of people’s confusion about homosexuals with pedophiles. Accord “I have never poked or prodded either a baby or a child, so why did I feel so dirty?” (Sedaris 222) This quote supports the argument that homosexuals can not touch any child, because their acts, perhaps, would be compulsive rather than sexual, and they think that others are misunderstanding them.
Another trick they are using is to leave their trap for one or two more days longer in order to avoid extra trips and costs associated with catching lobsters. The image of a lobster being happy, celebratory and luxury food is also driving the demand down. No one shops for lobster in a grocery store, it is a food ordered in restaurant outings to celebrate a promotion, birthday or other special occasion. The effort is made to make lobsters available at the frozen food aisle in supermarkets and make them available for people, but unlike beef and chicken, that are
An example of an external conflict would be a character fighting with another character, which is also known as person vs. person conflict. In the story The Bass, The River and Sheila Mant, a young narrator who is in love with fishing and also in love with a beautiful girl named Sheila Mant who thinks the exact opposite of fishing, finds himself at a crossroads when he has to choose between the girl, and the biggest bass of his life. I believe this story is an internal conflict because of several good points and quotes throughout the book. The Narrator loves to fish, however, Sheila does not. This can be proven by a quote on page 38, “I think fishing is dumb, I mean, it’s boring and all.

Pollan uses this narrative to make a personal connection with the reader by hinting to the reader that they too have a moral obligation to question whether eating meat is right. I think this narrative made his introduction powerful enough for the reader to be interested enough to read on. The narrative is also set a conversational tone to the article which also helps Pollan’s thesis since it fortifies the personal connection between the reader and the article by making the reader understand his point in the most coherent terms instead of terms a scientific expert would use. Pollan’s narratives show that the support for his thesis doesn’t only consist of secondary sources but also personal experience. In order to argue against Singer and the animal rights activists, Pollan has to research where their argument comes from.
