Consider the Lobster

               David Foster Wallace writes an article titled, “Consider the Lobster.”   The audience is chefs and people that love food or more specifically lobster.   The entire article is about lobster.   There is a lot to be said about lobster itself including its history, the different ways you can eat it, and the popularity of this omnivore.                The article starts out by describing the Maine Lobster Festival and explaining why it is such a huge event.   Wallace states, “Tourism and lobster are the midcoast region’s two main industries, and they’re both warm-weather enterprises, and the Maine Lobster Festival represents less an interaction of the industries than a delicate collision.”   This statement says a lot.   It explains the two biggest industries that are present in Maine, which leads me to ...

two different types of Intros for Inquiry essay

How to guide intro: Focusing is something that everyone struggles with at some point in his or her lifetime.   The human attention span is getting shorter.   Luckily, there is a guide on how to focus better!   Step one includes removing all distractions that surround you.   If you are a person that gets distracted by a phone, computer, or t.v. then you need to make an effort to remove all of that so that you can successfully focus on the task that is in front of you.   Step two includes getting in the right mindset.   Being negative about having to study or complete homework is not going to help you focus better.   You need to encourage yourself and be positive and that will surely help you to stay motivated to complete the task, whatever it may be.   Step three is to train your willpower muscle.   You have to train yourself to be more disciplined.   It will not be easy but it will be worth it.   Step four is to continue work...

SS1 Radical Honesty Analysis

I thought the essay titled, The Best Policy was very interesting.   I really liked the voice behind the entire essay and the way that it was written.   It flowed well and followed all of the criteria.   The introduction was extensive, but the point finally comes across stating the topic, the experiment, and the reason behind it was due to the personal story that she started with.   She used that story to explain to her readers what led her to have the question why lie?   She states her conclusion early on that “there are probably more logical reasons to lie than tell the truth.”   Overall, the introduction was solid and if I could offer any positive criticism I would say she needs to organize it a bit more.
