Camille LewisReading these stories and countless others like them which happen daily, it's hard to escape the conclusion that we are one angry society. An entire vocabulary has grown up to describe situations of out-ofcontrol fury: road rage, sideline rage, computer rage, biker rage, air rage. Bookstore shelves are filled with authors' advice on how to deal with our anger. Court-ordered anger management classes have become commonplace, and anger-management workshops are advertised in local newspapers. Human beings have always experienced anger, of course. But in earlier, more civil decades, public displays of anger were unusual to the point of being aberrant. Today, however, whether in petty or deadly forms, episodes of unrepressed rage have become part of ourdaily landscape. What has happened to us? Are we that much angrier than we used to be? Have we lost all inhibitions about expressing our anger? Are we, as a society, literally losing our ability to control our tempers? Why Are We So Angry? According to Sybil Evans, aconflict-resolution expert in New York City, there are three components to blame for our societal bad behavior: time, technology and tension. What's eating up our time? To begin with, Americans work longer hours and are rewarded with less vacation time than people in any other industrial society. Over an average year, for example, most British employees work 250 hours less than most Americans; most Germans work a full 500 hours less. And most Europeans are given four to six weeks vacation every year, compared to the average American's two weeks. To make matters worse, many Americans face long stressful commutes at the beginning and end of each long workday.。

In 1985 when a Japan Air Lines (JAL) jet crashed, its president, Yasumoto Takagi, called each victim’s family to apologize, and then promptly resigned. And in 1987, when a subsidiary of Toshiba sole sensitive military technology to the former Soviet Union, the chairman of Toshiba gave up his post. These executive actions, which Toshiba calls “the highest form of apology,” may seem bizarre to US managers. No one at Boeing resigned after the JAL crash, which may have been

The entire incident with the Community Chest Fund shows Richard’s pride9. b Richard’s teacher ignores his problems and humiliates him in front of the entire class;see paragraphs 5 through 26.10. b Helene cries over Richard’s humiliation; see paragraph 23.Structure and Technique, 5851. In paragraphs 1 and 2, Gregory mentions several steps he took to impress Helene Tucker.What were they? Why does he include them in his essay?Answer:In order to impress Helene, Gregory brushed his hair, got a handkerchief, washed his socks and shirt every night, shoveled the snow off her walk, tried to make friends with her mother and aunts, and left money on her stoop. He describes those steps in detail because, besides demonstrating his devotion to Helene, they give a clear picture of Gregory’s poverty.2. A metaphor is a suggested comparison. What metaphor does Gregory use in paragraph 5, andwhat is its purpose? What metaphor does he use in the second sentence of paragraph 7, andwhat does it mean?Answer:In paragraph 5, Gregory uses the metaphor that he was pregnant to suggest the effects of poverty on him—it gave him strange tastes, which pregnant people get. It also filled him (as pregnancy fills someone), but with negative things: poverty, dirt, “smells that made people turn away,” and so on.In the second sentence of paragraph 7, Gregory uses the metaphor of a flying eagle to represent the movement of money. (A picture of an eagle is engraved on one side of a quarter).3. In narrating the incidents in the classroom and in the restaurant, Gregory chooses toprovide actual dialogue rather than merely to tell what happened. Why?Answer:By using the exact words spoken by Helene, the teacher, and himself, Gregory givesa very clear picture of what happened by allowing the reader to “experience” it, rather thansimply hear a general summary. The dialogue between Helene and the teacher shows Helene as an ideal little student who received approval from the teacher. The dialogue between Gregory and the teacher, however, clearly demonstrates Gregory’s eagerness to impress Helene and his unsuccessful, embarrassing attempt to gain the teacher’s approval. If Gregory had merely described what had happened, we would have a much less vivid impression of the characters involved.4. At the end of the essay, Gregory shifts his focus from the classroom to the scene involving the winoat the restaurant. What is the connection between this closing scene and the rest of the essay?Answer:In the body of the essay, Gregory is narrating a time that he was shamed publicly and no one came to his defense. In the closing scene, Gregory realizes that he has done the same thing—that he, too, has witnessed a person being shamed without assisting him. He feels a new kind of “shame,” that of having failed to help another man in need.Critical Reading and Discussion,5861. When Gregory writes, “I never learned hate at home, or shame. I had to go to school forthat” (paragraph 1), he is using irony—an inconsistency between what is expected and what actually occurs. What does he mean by these two statements? What is the effect of his irony?Answer:Gregory means that although his home life was one of poverty and want, his home was not a place of inhumane values, such as hatred and shame. But at school, which on its surface was a more positive place, he was made to feel hatred and shame. The ironic statement intrigues the reader and makes him or her want to know more about what Gregory means.2. What are Gregory’s feelings about his teacher? What were your feelings about her as you readthis essay? What could the teacher have done or said that would not have made Gregory feel ashamed?Answer:Gregory seems sad and resentful that the teacher did not understand why he misbehaved in class and that she assumed he was stupid and a troublemaker. But he also wanted her approval badly, as seen by the Community Chest incident and the fact that he gota “big thrill” out of being chosen to clean the blackboard. Students’ suggestions about theteacher will vary. One possibility: She could have merely thanked Gregory in class and then spoken to him privately later if she doubted that he could contribute to Community Chest.3. Gregory shows how a childhood incident taught him shame. What other important lessons does Gregory learn in this essay? Explain.Answer:From paragraph 3, in which Gregory talks about his accomplishments later in life, we can conclude that he learned he could boost his self-esteem through his own efforts.Paragraph 5 shows that from his own experiences, he learned that children who are hungry and poor may feel invisible and so behave in ways that attract attention. From his experience with the wino, he learned that in order to feel good about himself, he would have to start standing up for other people who were shamed.4. At the end of his essay, Gregory says, “I waited too long to help another man.” Why do youthink he waited so long to assist the wino? What are some reasons people do not always help others who are in need (for example, ignoring a homeless person seated on the sidewalk)?Answer:Gregory probably had many reasons for not helping the wino sooner: embarrassment at drawing attention to himself, reluctance to part with his hard-earned money, not wanting to get in trouble with Mr. Williams, not knowing the wino and thus feeling the affair wasn’t his business, etc. People have similar reasons for not helping others in need. In addition, people who ignore a homeless man may feel that the man’s problems—maybe including substance abuse or mental illness—are so big and deep-rooted that they are not qualified to help him in any effective way.Thesis-and-Support OutlineThesis:Living poor was, for the author, a humiliating experience.1. He was embarrassed in front of his classmates and, worse, in front of Helene Tucker(7-23).2. Everybody knew he was a “worthy boy” who had no Dad and no money (28).3. His self-pity prevented him from helping another poor man, the wino (29-37).P.567 Suggested Answers for “Propaganda Techniques in Today’s Advertising” by Ann McClintockNote: The numbers in parentheses refer to relevant paragraphs in the selection.Reading Comprehension Questions,648-6491. b2. d3. b Answer a is too broad; answers c and d are too narrow.4. c Answers a and b are too narrow; answer d is too broad.5. b Paragraph 96. d Paragraphs 18-197. c Paragraph 168. c Paragraph 239. b10. aStructure and Technique, 649-6501. In paragraph 1, McClintock’s choice of words reveals her attitudes toward bothpropagandists and the public. What specific words reveal her attitudes, and what attitudes do they represent?Answer:McClintock describes propagandists as “seducers” and “brainwashers.” She refers to their “alluring images,”their “tricks,”and their “charm.”She describes the public as “content”and “eager . . . victims.”Her choice of words makes it clear that she thinks propagandists are untrustworthy and interested in taking unfair advantage of a too-trusting public.2. What key term does McClintock define in paragraph 2? Why does she define it here? Whereelse in the essay does she use the technique of definition?Answer:She defines the term “propaganda.” She places the definition close to the beginning because it is so essential to the reader’s understanding of the rest of her essay. Other points at which McClintock uses definition are in paragraphs 5, 6, 9, 12, 16, 18, and 21. In each of those paragraphs, she defines a particular propaganda technique.3. McClintock uses parentheses in two lists, the ones in paragraphs 7 and 19. What purpose dothese parentheses serve?Answer:Paragraph 7 lists “high-sounding but basically empty phrases.”The author uses parentheses to add comments that reveal the emptiness of those listed phrases. Paragraph 19 lists claims that include “weasel words.”The author uses parentheses to show just how insubstantial those weasel words are.4 . McClintock provides abundant examples throughout her essay. Why does she provide so manyexamples? What does she accomplish with this technique?Answer:McClintock’s many examples, drawn from the television and print ads we all see every day, clarify her definitions and demonstrate that propaganda techniques are truly a factor in everyday life. The examples make the reader more aware of the effects of propaganda on decisions he or she makes.Critical Reading and Discussion,6501. Some of the propaganda techniques listed in the selection have contrasting appeals. How doname-calling and glittering generalities contrast with each other? Testimonials and plain folks?Answer:Name-calling appeals to the instincts of fear, anger, and mistrust. Name-calling propaganda encourages the public to reject something or someone. Glittering generalities, on the other hand, appeal to the public’s positive emotions: love, attraction, patriotism. The public is asked to accept the thing or person advertised by associating it with those emotions.Testimonials depend on the public’s interest in or affection for celebrities—people ordinary viewers don’t know but admire and see as bigger and more important than themselves. By contrast, plain folks advertising is based on the idea that the public likes to see ordinary people—people like themselves—in the products and services they buy.2. Why are ads that use the bandwagon approach so effective? What ads have you seenrecently that use that approach?Answer:The bandwagon technique is effective because of the human need to be part of a group. We feel safe and secure when we are surrounded by people who agree with us about something—even something as trivial as what frozen coffee cake is best (“Nobody doesn’t like Sara Lee”). Answers to the second question will vary.3. The author states, “Americans, adults and children alike, are being seduced.” What mightbe the differences between the ways adults and children react to the seductions of advertising?Answer:Answers will vary.4. McClintock states, “We are victims, seemingly content—even eager—to be victimized”(paragraph 1). Do you agree? Is this article likely to change how you view ads in the future?Why or why not?Answer:Answers will vary.Thesis-and-Support OutlineThesis: People should detect and understand common propaganda techniques, which appealto the emotions rather than to logic.1. We are bombarded with ads, which present biased messages through various propagandatechniques, including seven common ones (1-4).2. Name calling—referring to a competitor with negatively charged names or comments (5).3. Glittering generalities—making important-sounding general claims with no explanation (6-8).4. Transfer—associating something with a symbol or image most people respect and admire (9-11).5. Testimonial—promoting something with the support of a celebrity (12-15).6. Plain folks—associating something with the average person (16-17).7. Card stacking—making something sound good by suppressing relevant evidence ormaking an unfinished claim (18-19).8. Bandwagon—appealing to people’s desire to do what many others are doing (20-21).9. Use critical thinking to avoid reacting emotionally to ads (22-23).P.592 Suggested Answers for “Here’s to Your Health”—Joan DunayerNote: The numbers in parentheses refer to relevant paragraphs in the selection.Reading Comprehension Questions,667-6681. c2. c3. d Answers a, b, and c are too narrow.4. c Answer a is too narrow; answer b is too broad; answer d, never directlystated in the article, is too narrow.5. b Paragraph 66. False Paragraph 47. True Paragraph 88. a9. False Paragraphs 6 and 810. d Paragraphs 4 and 8Structure and Technique,668-6691. What method of introduction does Dunayer use? What effect do you think she hoped toachieve with this introduction?Answer:She uses an anecdote. By telling a brief story about Tod’s experience, she puts a human face on the larger idea that alcohol abuse is linked to societal pressure. It also sets the tone for Dunayer’s thesis by showing the potential danger of even small amounts of alcohol.2. Dunayer introduces her criticism of alcohol with the words “Part of the myth is . . . .” (Seethe first sentence of paragraph 3.) What addition transitions does she use to introduce each of the three other parts of the myth (in the first sentences of paragraphs 5, 7, and 9)? What is gained by the use of these transitions?Answer:The three addition transitions are “another,”“also,”and “finally.”Each transition makes the reader aware that one element of the myth is being introduced.3. The body of Dunayer’s essay is made up of four pairs of paragraphs (paragraphs 3 and 4; 5and 6; 7 and 8; 9 and 10). What is the relationship between the paragraphs in each pair? In which of the two paragraphs does Dunayer present her own perspective? Why do you think she puts her own perspective in that paragraph?Answer:In the first paragraph of each pair, Dunayer presents one part of the alcohol myth.She begins each second paragraph with a topic sentence that represents her perspective. She then goes on to support her topic sentence with a series of facts. For example, below is the topic sentence of paragraph 4; it represents her perspective, which contradicts what the ad in paragraph 3 suggests about whiskey.Contrary to what the liquor company would have us believe, drinking is more closelyrelated to lack of success than to achievements.She then follows that sentence with supporting facts.By presenting her perspective after describing each part of the myth, Dunayer makes her points more dramatically: She sets up an appealing image in the first paragraph of each pair only to knock it down with force in the second one.4. In her essay, Dunayer provides vivid descriptions of alcohol advertisements, particularly inparagraphs 3 and 5. What vivid details does she provide? How do these details support her main point?Answer:In paragraph 3 she describes in detail the print ad showing two prosperous-looking businessmen in a restaurant, surrounded by fine crystal, velvet draperies, and spotless linen.In paragraph 5, she provides details about a beach scene: a young, beautiful, sexy woman; a young muscular man enticing her with a cold beer. By providing such detailed descriptions, Dunayer makes the reader very aware of the advertiser’s premise (alcohol will make you successful; alcohol will make you sexually attractive) behind such ads.Critical Reading and Discussion,6691. Dunayer presents and then rebuts four “myths” about alcohol. What are these four myths?According to Dunayer, what is the reality behind each myth?Answer:(1) Alcohol will make you professionally successful. In fact, says Dunayer, alcohol is frequently tied to low achievement and poverty. (2) Alcohol will make you sexually attractive.Dunayer says that alcohol actually lowers one’s hormones and can lead to impotence and infertility. (3) Alcohol and sports mix well. Dunayer points out that alcohol slows the reflexes, interferes with the eyes’ability to focus, and increases the likelihood of various serious diseases. (4) Alcohol brings families closer together. In fact, Dunayer writes, alcohol is frequently involved in domestic violence, suicide, and birth defects.2. Dunayer concludes, “‘Here’s to your health’rings with a terrible irony when it isaccompanied by the clink of liquor glasses” (paragraph 11). What is the “terrible irony” she refers to? How does this irony—already signaled in her essay’s title—relate to her main point?Answer:The irony is that alcohol, rather than promoting one’s health, is often tied to illness and misery. The irony is also implied in her main point—that while advertising myths promise us that alcohol will improve our lives, it is far more likely to have destructive effects.3. Do you think Dunayer’s essay about the myths of alcohol is one-sided, or is it balanced?Explain. What additional points could be used to support her point or to rebut it?Answer:The essay is one-sided in the sense that Dunayer does not include opinions from people who disagree with her. Other points she might have used to support her argument include the widespread idea among young people that using alcohol makes them seem more adult.Rebuttals of Dunayer’s argument could include the ideas that many people use alcohol responsibly and that the problem is not with the product itself but with irresponsible people’s misuse of it.4. Advertisers often create myths or use false ideas to get people to buy their products. Besidesalcohol ads, what are some other examples of manipulative or deceptive advertising? Do you think advertisers should be permitted to use such tactics to sell products?Answer:Answers will vary.Thesis-and Support OutlineThesis: The media and our culture promote a false myth about alcohol.1. Part of the myth is that alcohol signals success; the reality is that alcohol can preventsuccess (3-4).2. Another part of the myth is that alcohol makes one sexually attractive; the reality is thatalcohol can make one less sexy (5-6).3. A third part of the myth is that alcohol combines well with athletics; the reality is thatalcohol slows people down and can lead to physical decline (7-8).4. The fourth part of the myth is that alcohol contributes to family happiness; the reality isthat alcohol can lead to great unhappiness.P.607 Suggested Answers for “College Lectures: Is Anybody Listening?” by David DanielsNote: The numbers in parentheses refer to relevant paragraphs in the selection.Reading Comprehension Questions, 683-6841. c2. a3. c Answers a, b and d are all too narrow, as each covers only a single point ofthe selection.4. b Answers a, c, and d are too narrow.5. d Paragraphs 5 and 76. a Paragraph 107. a Paragraph 108. a Paragraph 9 and 109. True Paragraphs 11 through 1310. c Paragraph 13Structure and Technique, 6841. Daniels begins his essay with an anecdote about a former teacher of his. How does thisintroduction relate to his thesis?Answer:The anecdote is an extreme example of a college teacher who seemed unaware of whether his students were listening to him or not. The professor serves as a caricature of the type of teaching Daniels is criticizing.2. Does Daniels directly state his thesis? If so, where is it stated?Answer:Daniels states his thesis at the end of paragraph 4: “The time is long overdue for us to abandon the lecture system and turn to methods that really work.”3. In describing Mary’s classroom experience (paragraphs 5–7), Daniels provides numerousdetails. What are some of these details? How do they relate to the essay’s main idea?Answer:Some of the details provided include the huge class size, the lack of a roll call, the professor’s ancient notes, the lack of opportunity for student feedback, and the absence of quizzes. The details all contribute to the idea that lecture-heavy classes do a poor job of involving the student in the subject and stimulating his or her thinking.4. Daniels’s essay is an argument against the lecture system of education. What argumentationtechniques does he employ? (See pages 319–337 for information on argumentation.)Answer:Daniels uses four of the argumentation techniques explained in Chapter 16, “Argumentation,” pages 319–322:1) Point out common ground. Daniels points out common ground between him and schoolsthat support lectures. In paragraph 8, he admits that many schools supplement lectures with discussion groups and that some classes, such as first-year English, are relatively small.2) Acknowledge differing viewpoints. Daniels acknowledges (but does not support)viewpoints that differ from his. In paragraph 13, he states that administrators like lectures because they “can cram far more students into a lecture hall than into a discussion class.” He adds in the same paragraph that teachers and students find lectures easier because students can sit back and be passive and teachers can “engage in intellectual exhibitionism.”3) Grant the merits of differing viewpoints when appropriate. Daniels grants the merits ofopposing views in paragraph 15, where he states that lectures are “economically necessary” and also because they “spring from a tradition in a setting that rightly values tradition for its own sake.”4) Rebut differing views. Daniels rebuts the support for lecture classes for first- andsecond-year students by stating the virtues of smaller classes, which are listed in paragraph 14: smaller classes force students to become more active, students’ listening skills improve, professors do a better job, and tests demand analysis and synthesis instead of “empty memorization.”And while Daniels supports the tradition of lectures in paragraph 15, he immediately argues against their use in the first two years of college.Critical Reading and Discussion,684-6851. Daniels states that “listening intelligently is hard work” (paragraph 9) and “Active learning. . . is far more beneficial for those who have not yet fully learned how to learn” (paragraph10). Why might Daniels feel that listening is so hard? And why does he feel that activelearning is so good?Answer:In paragraph 10, Daniels mentions that listening actively involves special techniques, including these two: “trying to anticipate the speaker’s next point”and “taking notes selectively.” We can assume that he feels it takes time and practice to learn such techniques. In discussing active learning in paragraph 10, Daniels mentions several types: writing essays, performing experiments, and having work evaluated by an instructor. He obviously feels that these types of active work involve students in ways they are not ready to be involved in as listeners.2. In paragraph 8, Daniels acknowledges that he has exaggerated Mary’s negative classroomexperience, saying,“I admit this picture is overdrawn.”Does this admission strengthen or weaken his argument? Explain.Answer:The case could be made that the admission strengthens Daniels’argument. By admitting that he is exaggerating slightly, Daniels can point out that many classes do have most if not all of the negative aspects of Mary’s class. It is also psychologically sound to admit a shortcoming of one’s argument, as it helps establish the writer as a reasonable person.3. According to Daniels, the lecture system harms professors by reducing feedback fromstudents to a minimum. What is useful about about feedback from students?Answer:If students’ comments indicate they don’t understand something, the teacher can then do something to help students improve their understanding. Students’ comments may also help teachers decide which activities and materials are effective and ineffective. Also, the knowledge that their view counts in class may motivate students to get involved with class work.4. How do your experiences in both lecture classes and smaller classes compare with Daniels’sdescriptions? As a student, which type of class do you prefer? Why? If you were an instructor, which type of class would you prefer to teach? Why?Answer:Answers will vary.Thesis-and-Support OutlineThesis:Colleges and universities should offer interactive, not lecture, classes to first- and second-year students (4, 15).1. The lecture system is outmoded (4).2. It is inadequate for students, especially less experienced students (5-11).3. It is harmful to educators (12).4. The lecture system continues because administrators like its profitability and teachers andstudents find it easier (13).5. Small, interactive classes benefit both students and teachers (14).。

Taming-the-Anger-Monster
A Professional Essay to ConsiderRead the following professional essay. Then answer the questions and read the comments that follow.Taming the Anger Monster （by Anne Davidson）Laura Houser remembers the day with embarrassment.“My mother was visiting from Illinois,” she says. “We'd gone out to lunch and done some shopping. On our way home, we stopped at an intersection. When the light changed, the guy ahead of us was looking at a map or something and didn't move right away. I leaned on my horn and automatically yelled—well, what I generally yell at people who make me wait. I didn't even think about what I was doing. One moment I was talking and laughing with my mother, and the next I was shouting curses at a stranger. M om's jaw just dropped. She said, ‘Well, I guess you've been living in the city too long.’ That's when I realized that my anger was out of control.” Laura has plenty of company. Here are a few examples plucked from the headlines of recent newspapers:•Amtrak's Washington–New York train: When a woman begins to use her cell phone in a designated “quiet car,” her seatmate grabs the phone and smashes it against the wall.•Reading, Mass.: Arguing over rough play at their ten-year-old sons' hockey practice, two fathers begin throwing punches. One of the dads beats the other to death.•Westport, Conn.: Two supermarket shoppers get into a fistfight over who should be first in a just-opened checkout line.Reading these stories and countless others like them which happen daily, it's hard to escape the conclusion that we are one angry society. An entire vocabulary has grown up to describe situations of out-of-control fury: road rage, sideline rage, computer rage, biker rage, air rage. Bookstore shelves are filled with authors' advice on how to deal with our anger. Court-ordered anger management classes have become commonplace, and anger-management workshops are advertised in local newspapers.Human beings have always experienced anger, of course. But in earlier, more civil decades, public displays of anger were unusual to the point of being aberrant. Today, however, whether in petty or deadly forms, episodes of unrepressed rage have become part of our daily landscape.What has happened to us? Are we that much angrier than we used to be? Have we lost all inhibitions about expressing our anger? Are we, as a society, literally losing our ability to control our tempers?Why Are We So Angry?According to Sybil Evans, a conflict-resolution expert in New York City, there are three components to blame for our societal bad behavior: time, technology and tension.What's eating up our time? To begin with, Americans work longer hours and are rewarded with less vacation time than people in any other industrial society. Over an average year, for example, most British employees work 250 hours less than most Americans; most Germans work a full 500 hours less. And most Europeans are given four to six weeks vacation every year, compared to the average American's two weeks. To make matters worse, many Americans face long stressful commutes at the beginning and end of each long workday.Once we Americans finally get home from work, our busy day is rarely done. We are involved in community activities; our children participate in sports, school programs, and extracurricular activities; and our houses, yards and cars cry out for maintenance. To make matters worse, we are reluctant to use the little bit of leisure time we do have to catch up on our sleep. Compared with Americans of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, most of us are chronically sleep deprived. While our ancestors typically slept nine-and-a-half hours a night, many of us feel lucky to get seven. We're critical of “lazy” people who sleep longer, and we associate naps with toddlerhood. (In doing so, we ignore the example of successful people including Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein, and Napoleon, all of whom were devoted to their afternoon naps.)The bottom line: we are time-challenged and just plain tired—and tired people are cranky people. We're ready to blow—to snap at the slow-moving cashier, to tap the bumper of the slowpoke ahead of us, or to do something far worse.Technology is also to blame for the bad behavior so widespread in culture. Amazing gadgets were supposed to make our lives easier—but have they? Sure, technology has its positive aspects. It is a blessing, for instance, to have a cell phone on hand when your car breaks down far from home or to be able to “instant message” a friend on the other side of the globe. But the downsides are many. Cell phones, pagers, fax machines, handheld computers and the like have robbed many of us of what was once valuable downtime. Now we're always available to take that urgent call or act on that last-minute demand. Then there is the endless pressure of feeling we need to keep up with our gadgets' latest technological developments. For example, it's not sufficient to use your cell phone for phone calls. Now you must learn to use the phone for text-messaging and downloading games. It's not enough to take still photos with your digital camera. You should know how to shoot ultra high-speed fast-action clips. It's not enough to have an enviable CD collection. You should be downloading new songs in MP3 format. The computers in your house should be connected by a wireless router, and online via high-speed DSL service. In other words, if it's been more than ten minutes since you've updated your technology, you're probably behind.In fact, you're not only behind; you're a stupid loser. At least, that's how most of us end up feeling as we're confronted with more and more unexpected technologies: the do-it-yourself checkout at the supermarket, the telephone “help center” that offers a recorded series of messages, but no human help. And f eeling like losers makes us frustrated and, you guessed it, angry. “It's not any one thingbut lots of little things that make people feel like they don't have control of their lives,” says Jane Middleton-Moz, an author and therapist. “A sense of helpless ness is what triggers rage. It's why people end up kicking ATM machines.”Her example is not far-fetched. According to a survey of computer users in Great Britain, a quarter of those under age 25 admitted to having kicked or punched their computers on at least one occasion. Others confessed to yanking out cables in a rage, forcing the computer to crash. On this side of the Atlantic, a Wisconsin man, after repeated attempts to get his daughter's malfunctioning computer repaired, took it to the store where he had bought it, placed it in the foyer, and attacked it with a sledgehammer. Arrested and awaiting a court appearance, he told local reporters, “It feels good, in a way.” He had put into action a fantasy many of us have had—that of taking out our feelings of rage on the machines that so frustrate us.Tension, the third major culprit behind our epidemic of anger, is intimately connected with our lack of time and the pressures of technology. Merely our chronic exhaustion and our frustration in the face of a bewildering array of technologies would be enough to cause our stress levels to skyrocket, but we are dealing with much more. Our tension is often fueled by a reserve of anger that might be the result of a critical boss, marital discord, or (something that many of today's men and women experience, if few will admit it) a general sense of being stupid and inadequate in the face of the demands of modern life. And along with the challenges of everyday life, we now live with a widespread fear of such horrors as terrorist acts, global warming, and antibiotic-resistant diseases. Our sense of dread may be out of proportion to actual threats because of technology's ability to so constantly bombardus with worrisome information. Twenty-four hours a day news stations bring a stream of horror into our living rooms. As we work on our computers, headlines and graphic images are never more than a mouseclick away.The Result of Our AngerAdd it all together—our feeling of never having enough time; the chronic aggravation caused by technology; and our endless, diffuse sense of stress—and we become time bombs waiting to explode. Our angry outbursts may be briefly satisfying, but afterwards we are left feeling—well, like jerks. Worse, flying off the handle is a self-perpetuating behavior. Brad Bushman, a psychology professor at Iowa State University, says, “Catharsis is worse than useless.” Bushman's research has shown that when people vent their anger, they actually become more, not less, aggressive. “Many people think of anger as the psychological equivalent of the steam in a pressure cooker. It has to be released, or it will explode. That's not true. The people who react by hitting, kicking, screaming, and swearing just feel more angry.”Furthermore, the unharnessed venting of anger may actually do us physical harm. The vigorous expression of anger pumps adrenaline into our system and raises our blood pressure, setting the stage for heart attack and strokes. Frequently angry people have even been shown to have higher cholesterol levels than even-tempered individuals.How to Deal with Our AngerUnfortunately, the culprits behind much of our anger—lack of time, frustrating technology, and mega-levels of stress—are not likely to resolve themselves anytime soon. So what are we to do with the anger that arises as a result?According to Carol Tavris, author of Anger: The Misunderstood Emotion,the keys to dealing with anger are common sense and patience. She points out that almost no situation is improved by an angry outburst. A traffic jam, a frozen computer, or a misplaced set of car keys are annoying. To act upon the angry feelings those situations provoke, however, is an exercise in futility. Shouting, fuming, or leaning on the car horn won't make traffic begin to flow, the screen unlock, or keys materialize.Patience, on the other hand, is a highly practical virtue. People who take the time to cool down before responding to an anger-producing situation are far less likely to say or do something they will regret later. “It is as tru e of the body as of arrows,” Tavris says, “that what goes up must come down. Any emotional arousal will simmer down if you just wait long enough.” When you are stuck in traffic, in other words, turn on some soothing music, breathe deeply, and count to ten—or thirty or forty, if need be.Anger-management therapist Doris Wild Helmering agrees. “Like any feeling, anger lasts only about three seconds,” she says. “What keeps it going is your own negative thinking.” As long as you focus on the idiot who cut you o ff on the expressway, you'll stay angry. But if you let the incident go, your anger will go with it.“Once you come to understand that you're driving your own anger with your thoughts,” adds Helmering, “you can stop it.”Experts who have studied anger also encourage people to cultivate activities that effectively vent their anger. For some people, it's reading the newspaper or watching TV, while others need more active outlets, such as using a treadmill, taking a walk, hitting golf balls, or working out with a punching bag. People who succeed in calming their anger can also enjoy the satisfaction of having dealt positively with their frustrations.For Laura Houser, the episode in the car with her mother was a wake-up call. “I saw myself through her eyes,” she said, “and I realized I had become a chronically angry, impatient jerk. My response to stressful situations had become habitual—I automatically flew off the handle. Once I saw what I was doing, it really wasn't that hard to develop different habits. I simply decided I was going to treat other people the way I would want to be treated.” The changes in Laura's life haven't benefited only her former victims. “I'm a calmer, happier person now,” she reports. “I don't lie in bed at night fuming over stupid thi ngs other people have done and my own enraged responses.” Laura has discovered the satisfaction of having a sense of control over her own behavior—which ultimately is all any of us can control.

Timing The Anger Monster原文翻译
紧张不安，是藏在我们流行愤怒背后的第三个主要的罪魁祸首，与我们时间的缺乏和技术工作的压力密切相关。只是 我们的慢性疲劳和面对一系列令人眼花缭乱的技术工作将足够引起我们的压力等级的飙升，但是我们正在处理更多的 事。我们的紧张不安经常也许是由于一个爱挑剔的老板、夫妻不和、或者（许多现在的男女体验过的一些东西，也许 很少有人会承认）一般意义上的愚蠢和不足以满足现代生活的需求等引起的愤怒的累积而加深的。随着日常生活的挑 战，我们现在生活在一个对恐怖分子、全球变暖和耐抗生素的疾病等这些令人恐惧的事物感到害怕的环境中。我们的 恐惧也许与实际的威胁不成比例，是由于用令人担忧的信息不断的冲击着我们的技术的能力。一天24小时的新闻电台 给我们的生活带来一连串的恐怖。在我们在电脑前工作的同时,头条和图像的跟新总是会比你的鼠标点击快得多。 研究发怒的专家同时也鼓励人们发泄愤怒的行为培养。对有些人，读报纸看电视，而有些人需要更多运动如脚踏车 远足或打高尔夫球或绑沙袋行走。那些成功表清愤怒的人能够享受积极处理沮丧的满足感。 对于Laura Houser，那段和她母亲在车里的发怒的经历对她是一个惊醒。“我在她的眼睛里看见了我自己”，她说 “并且我意识到我成为了一个慢性发怒者和没有耐心的混蛋”。我在压力大的场合下习惯性地大发雷霆。一次我看见 我正在做的事，发现实际上培养不同的习惯并不难。我立即决定我要用我希望别人待我的方式对待别人”她的改变不 仅仅是对她以前的受害者有用，“我现在是一个愉快的人。”她回答说“我现在晚上脑海中不会再浮现出那些愚蠢的 事和我愤怒的感受”。她已经找到了控制自我的满足感，这其实是我们每一个人都可以做到的。 怒火抑制治疗学家Doris Wild Helmering 同意这种说法。“就像任何其它的情感，怒意仅仅持续大约三秒钟”，她 说，“让怒意一直保持的是你自己的消极的想法。”要是你一直将注意力放在那个让你在高速上中途停车的傻瓜身上， 你讲一直保持着怒火。但如果你不在意那个意外，你的怒火也将随之离开。“一旦你开始了解你可以用自己的思维驾 驭怒火，你将可以终止你的怒火”Helmer些人来说，可以是读报纸或看电视，而当另一些人需要更活跃的出路，像用跑步机跑步，去散步，打高尔夫或者 打沙袋锻炼。能成功克制住自己怒火的人还能获得一种积极有效处理他们遇到的挫折的满足感。 对Laura Hoouser 来说，与她妈妈在车里发生的插曲是一记警钟，“我从妈妈的眼里看到了自己”，她说，“并且我 意识到我已经变成一个习惯性不耐心的古怪的人。我对压抑场合的反应已经成为习惯——我无意识的失去控制。一次 我发现了自己在做什么，养成一个不同的习惯并没有那么困难。我只是决定我将以自己想被别人怎么对待的方式对待 别人。”发生在Laura生活中的改变不止使她以前的受害者受益。“现在我是一个冷静并且比以前更开心的人，”她 回复道，“我不再躺在床上因为其他人对我做的愚蠢的事和我自己暴怒的回复而怒火中烧。”Laura已经发现了控制 自己行为的宽慰，而控制自己行为基本上是我们任何人都能做到的。

People who succeed in calming their anger can also enjoy the satisfaction of having dealt positively with their frustrations.For Laura Houser, the episode in the car with her mother was a wake-up call. “I saw myself through her eyes,” she said, “and I realized I had become a chronically angry, impatient jerk. My response to stressful situations had become habitual—I automatically flew off the handle. Once I saw what I was doing, it really wasn't that hard to develop different habits. I simply decided I was going to treat other people the way I would want to be treated.” The changes in Laura's life haven't benefited only her former victims. “I'm a calmer, happier person now,” she reports. “I don't lie in bed at night fuming over stupid thing s other people have done and my own enraged responses.” Laura has discovered the satisfaction of having a sense of control over her own behavior—which ultimately is all any of us can control.QuestionsAbout Unity1.Which of the following statements best represents the implied thesis of “Taming the AngerMonster”?a.People today have lost their ability to control their anger and to behave in a civilfashion.b.Anger would last only a few seconds if we didn't keep it going with negative thinking.c.While technology has its positive aspects, it has made us constantly available to othersand frustrates us with the need to master its endless new developments.d.Our out-of-control anger has understandable causes, but common sense and patienceare more satisfying than outbursts of rage.2.Which statement would best serve as a topic sentence for Paragraphs 3 and 4?a.Anger has become an increasingly common problem in our society.b.People should be more thoughtful and tolerant of those around them.c.Displays of anger frequently lead to physical violence and even death.d.Anger is a natural response to irritating situations.3.Which statement is the best topic sentence for Paragraphs 16-18?a.“Unfortunately, the culprits behind much of our anger—lack of time, frustratingtechnology, and mega-levels of stress—are not likely to resolve themselves anytimesoon.”b.“According to Carol Tavris, author of Anger: The Misunderstood Emotion, the keys todealing with anger are common sense and patience.”c.“Patience, on the other hand, is a highly practical value.”d.“People who take the time to cool down before responding to an anger-producingsituation are far less likely to say or do something they will regret later.”About Support1.The essay is about one main effect and three possible causes.

介绍怪物的英文作文
介绍怪物的英文作文Title: Monsters: A Peek into the Dark Side.Monsters, creatures of nightmares and legends, have fascinated and terrified us for centuries. These mythical beings, often described as hideous and threatening, have found their way into our stories, films, and even our everyday conversations. But what exactly are monsters, and why do they hold such a strong grip on our collective imagination?The concept of monsters is as old as civilizationitself. In ancient times, people believed that monsterswere real, and they were often attributed to natural disasters, epidemics, and other tragic events. These monsters were often personified, given human-like qualities, and were seen as embodiments of evil and chaos. They were feared and worshipped, often in the same breath.As time passed, monsters evolved from being mererepresentations of evil to become more complex and diverse characters. In literature, monsters such as Frankenstein's monster, the werewolf, and the vampire became popular characters, offering a new layer of depth and complexity. These monsters were no longer just embodiments of evil; they were characters with their own desires, motivations, and tragedies.Films have also played a pivotal role in shaping our understanding of monsters. Classic monster movies like "King Kong," "Frankenstein," and "Dracula" introduced a new generation to these mythical beings. These films not only terrified audiences but also offered a commentary on society and human nature. Monsters became symbols of our own fears and insecurities, reflecting our deepestanxieties and nightmares.But monsters are not just limited to the world of fiction. They also exist in our everyday lives. We encounter them in the form of our own demons, the monsters that lurk within us. These monsters are often harder to face than any external threat, as they are a part of us, areflection of our own dark side.The concept of the monster within us is explored in depth in many psychological and philosophical works. Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, proposed the idea of the "Id," a primitive, primal part of the psyche that is driven by desires and impulses. The Id, in a way, can be seen as a monster within us, a force that pushes us towards actions that may be self-destructive or harmful to others.Monsters, whether external or internal, have a profound impact on our culture and society. They are a constant reminder of the dark side of human nature, the part of us that we often try to suppress or ignore. By facing these monsters, whether they are literal creatures or figments of our imagination, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and the world around us.In conclusion, monsters are not just creatures of nightmares or legends; they are a reflection of our own fears, insecurities, and dark side. They have been a partof our culture and society for centuries, and they continue to fascinate and terrify us. As we delve deeper into the world of monsters, we also delve deeper into ourselves, discovering the monsters that lurk within us and the strength it takes to face them.。

Monsters, those enigmatic entities that have haunted human imagination for centuries, have been portrayed in various forms across different cultures and mythologies. From the towering giants of ancient Greek lore to the shape-shifting yokai of Japanese folklore, the concept of monsters has captivated the human psyche, often serving as embodiments of fear, mystery, and the unknown. In this exploration, we delve into the realm of monsters, examining their significance, origins, and enduring allure.To comprehend the essence of monsters, it is essential to dissect their role in human culture and psychology. These creatures often represent primal fears, embodying the threats and dangers that lurk in the darkness of the human subconscious. Whether they manifest as physical beings or as metaphors for societal anxieties, monsters serve ascautionary tales, reminding us of the fragility of our existence and the omnipresence of danger.One of the most enduring archetypes of monsters isfound in Greek mythology, where creatures like the Minotaur, the Hydra, and the Chimera roamed the realms of gods and mortals. These beings, born from the chaos of primordial existence, embody the untamed forces of nature and the darker aspects of the human psyche. They are not merely adversaries to be conquered but reflections of humanity's inner struggles and desires, challenging heroes to confront their own fears and weaknesses.In contrast to the monstrous beings of Western mythology, the monsters of Eastern folklore often possess a more nuanced and multifaceted nature. In Japanese mythology, for example, yokai encompass a wide range of supernatural entities, from mischievous spirits to vengeful specters. These creatures are not always malevolent; some yokai serve as protectors of nature or guardians of sacred places.Their portrayal reflects a worldview that acknowledges the coexistence of the mundane and the supernatural, wherehumans navigate a world populated by both benevolent and malevolent forces.The enduring fascination with monsters is not limitedto mythology and folklore but extends to various forms of popular culture, including literature, film, and art. From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to Guillermo del Toro's The Shape of Water, monsters continue to captivate audiences, inviting us to empathize with beings that exist beyond the boundaries of human understanding. Through these narratives, we confront our own prejudices and preconceptions,realizing that what we perceive as monstrous may, in fact, be a reflection of our own humanity.But why do we find monsters so compelling? Perhaps itis because they embody the unknown, inviting us to explore the uncharted territories of our imagination. In a world where science and reason seek to demystify the universe, monsters remind us that there are still mysteries waitingto be unraveled, and that the darkness still holds secrets yet to be revealed.In conclusion, the concept of monsters transcends cultural boundaries and historical epochs, resonating with the universal aspects of the human experience. Whether they manifest as mythical beasts, supernatural entities, or allegorical figures, monsters continue to fascinate and intrigue us, challenging our perceptions of good and evil, beauty and ugliness, and ultimately, what it means to be human. In embracing the realm of monsters, we embrace the complexity of our own nature, acknowledging that within each of us lies the potential for both darkness and light.。

关于怪物的评价英文作文
关于怪物的评价英文作文英文：When it comes to evaluating monsters, there are a few different factors to consider. First and foremost, we have to look at their physical attributes. Are they big and intimidating, or small and agile? Do they have sharp claws or teeth, or maybe even wings? These physical traits can play a big role in how dangerous a monster is perceived to be.Another important factor to consider is the monster's behavior. Are they aggressive and territorial, or do they tend to keep to themselves? Do they prey on humans or other creatures, or are they content to feed on plants and other non-living things? A monster's behavior can be just as important as its physical attributes in determining how much of a threat it poses.Of course, there are also cultural factors to considerwhen evaluating monsters. In some cultures, certain creatures are revered as protectors or symbols of good luck, while in others they are feared and reviled. These cultural attitudes can greatly impact how we perceive and evaluate monsters.Overall, I think it's important to approach monster evaluation with an open mind and a willingness to learn about different cultures and perspectives. By doing so, we can gain a deeper understanding of the creatures that populate our myths and legends, and perhaps even learn to appreciate them in new ways.中文：评价怪物时，有几个因素需要考虑。

In the article, "Taming the Anger Monster", originally written by Anne Davidson, the author begins with a dialoge between peaceful mother and a moody daughter named Laura who shouted to the car waiting in front of hers. Several examples Anne provides prove that whether in pretty or deadly forms, episodes of unrepressed rage have become part of our daily landscape. Then comes the body. In the first part of the body, Anne questions us why we are so angry. A conflict-resolution expert called Sybil Evans attribute the causes to three components : time, technology and tension. Firstly, people work longer hours but rewarded with less free time to relax. They have to spent much more time on meaningless affairs. On the other hand, people are time-challenged and lack of sleep. Gradually, they can't stand any slugishness. In addition, technology makes us connective and robs many of us of what is once valuable downtime. Our working time has been lengthed. Also, we are forced to update our technology which requires constant and new demands of us. We confront our out-of-control life with exhaustion and anger. Actually speaking, these machines add unexpected wrath to our life instead of making us live a better life. The third reason for anger is tension. Exhaustion and anger may fuel our anger which lead to a widespread fearful life. We are nervous about everything uncertain and potential suffering.
The second part is exploring the result of our anger. Anger has an harmful impact on us, physicially and mentally. For one thing, when we are angry, ways to release anger such as screaming just make things worse. For another thing, anger may put us into a harmful situation and exacerbate the possibility of getting heart attack.
In the last, Anne gives us suggestions on how to deal with our anger. The keys to dealing with anger, said by Carol Tacris, are common sense and patience. At first, You had better think twice before responding to an anger-producing situation. Besides, If you are stuck in something troublesome, try to calm down. Anger only last three seconds. we shouldn't enlarge its influence and push us into a bad mood. Most importantly, we can do something interesting ---Sports, TV shows and other active outlets. They will help people vent anger effectively.
In the end of this artical, Anne echos the begining of this writing. She tells the theme through Laura, and。
