TOPIC: Imagine you saw your best friend cheating on a test. Write a story about what
you would do.

Answer and Explanation:

In today's class I witnessed a scene that shocked me, because I never expected it to happen. My friend, who I've known since I was a little child of a few years old, arrived at school with a strange appearance, he had dark circles and a tired face, he didn't even smile at me when I nodded and spent all the time quiet and talking a lot little. But the most surprising thing about that day was that during our test, I could see mine that my friend, who was always very studious, was cheating on the test.

I was surprised because I always heard him being completely against students who do this, stating that it is useless to pass a test without having learned the subject, cheating as if that would be beneficial. To my surprise, I tried to talk to him after the test and find out what was going on, but he disappeared as soon as he handed the test over to the professor. I was thinking about what I can do and I am lying in my bed, imagining a thousand scenarios about what my attitude towards this should be.

I would never pass on what my friend did to the teacher, because I don't think it is right to harm a person at that level. For that reason, after thinking a lot, I called my friend and told him about what I saw, he was very nervous, but I calmed him down saying that I would not say this to anyone, but that I needed to know what was happening to him and how could I help him not cheat in the next tests. I believe that I made the right decision and that I will have good results from that.

the support that the author, uses in the article facing our fears is a): a definition of the part of the brain called the amygdala.

he takes neuroscientist joseph ledoux's words by telling that by falling to distinguish between evolutionary old systems located in the amygdala and newer systems, centered in the prefrontal cortex, doctors have conflated non conscious threat circuits in the brain with circuits that underlie the conscious experience of fear. that, the author says, "leads ledoux to the jarring conclusion that the amygdala, a decades-old centerpiece of the brain's fear circuit, does not underlie the conscious feeling of fear".

despite this, the author points out in the article that that is a controversial notion and that evidence, in animal and humans, supports the idea that core emotions can exist outside of conscious awareness.
