Why can we assume that the gathering of white citizens grew more raucous as the evening progressed?
kobusy [5.1K]

In the novel Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison, the main character, an African American, suffers from a harsh exhibition of prejudice and discrimination caused by the color of his skin. He was invited to give the same farewell speech he said to his high school classmates in front of a town’s meeting which had a majority of white male citizens. In its place, there was a fight which involves his classmates and him. At the end, he tries to recite his speech and he mistakenly uses “social equality” instead of “social responsibility” and that’s when the crowd starts to get angry at him, reminding him of his place in this world. The crowd started to get more upset since they had a misconception of African Americans at that time, they believed they were nothing but an isolated group of society and they were considered a low-life population; additionally, the behavior of the <em>Invisible Man</em> and his classmates was not their best analyzing the standards of morally correct citizens they wanted to achieve. Subsequently, the Invisible man tries to find his place in this world, a place opposite to the opinion that a white America has of him.

Since the brain is basically focused on the sensory systems higher.

Higher-level stages of cognition such as reasoning, are therefore known to be at the top of the process of feeling and perception.

But at the other hand, low-level brain structures, like those participating in sight, touch, or hearing sensory systems, are known to be at the bottom.

Top-down processing refers to how our brains use information that one or more of the sensory systems have already put into the brain.

It is a cognitive process that begins with our emotions, flowing down to functions at lower levels, such as the senses.

dalvyx [7]
They tend to work harder and enjoy their work more.
People who are intrinsically motivated are motivated by internal desires - for example, they want to learn a new thing, experience new events, and improve themselves from the inside. On the other hand, people who are extrinsically motivated only want a particular material award, which isn't such a strong drive as internal motivation.
