TOEFL integrated writing: Altruism.

The article states that altruism is a selfless act of sacrifies by animals which is present among both humans and other mammals. However, the lecturer explains that if closely observed then it is revealed that animals do not perform so such altruistic deeds selflessly and the lecturer refutes atricles example with reasons which are provied in the following paragraphs.

First, the reading claims that in a group of meerkats one member act as a sentinel who sacrifice food and safety to alerm other member from preditors. The professor opposes this point by saying sentinel are the first to see the preditors and it has greater chance to flee. The lecturer claims that meerkats group together when preditors attack which makes it easier for sentinel to run away. Again, lecturer states that sentinel does not go hungry while guarding the group. In fact lecturer claims that the opposite happens. Sentinel eat food before he goes to its duity.

Second, the reading posits that human do altruistic deed by sharing food or even donate organ to relatives or often tocomplete strangers. But the lecturer refutes this point by explaining that when someone donates organ to relatives, he gets appreciation from society. He also get great self satisfiction. The lecturer made her point by saying that human does not share food or donate organ selflessly, there is a subtle intention of getting approval from society behind that act.
