... rape and live a better life. § I liked the way the writer put a lot of emotions into her writing because it tells a lot about the character and how the character feels. § I didn't like that Marguerite and Bailey were sent to Momma's because their parents couldn't take care of them because children should feel loved and wanted by their parents and a real family should stick together through thick and thin no matter what. § If I wrote this book I would change the way that Bailey became distant from Maya because they had such a special bond, and a bond like that between brother and sister shouldn't have deteriorated like that. § This book reminded me of a scared and lonely, helpless child who ...

... an older man and was mildly deformed, “It was sufficiently evident to Hester Prynne that one of this man’s shoulder rose higher than the other." This deformity may also make him seem hideous or monster like, but it is just a sign of his age. Roger Chillingworth, although Native Americans captured him, was a refined gentleman, and spoke as one “then touching the shoulder of a townsman who stood next to him, he addressed him, in a formal and courteous manner.” It is Roger’s nature to be calm and cool, and he has the great ability to control his emotions, “His face darkened with some powerful emotion, nevertheless, he so instantaneously controlled by an ef ...

... likely, Paul left Corinth in the fall of AD 51. Paul returned to Corinth on his third trip to Asia, c. fall, AD 52. Paul then wrote this letter from Ephesus while on his third trip to Asia. Paul wrote the letter several years after his initial departure from Corinth in the fall of AD 51-52. The letter was written before the beginning of the summer since Paul intended to leave Ephesus after Pentecost.

... they follow their orders. They sail away on a ship, but soon realize they are being followed by a ship that is gaining on them. He also follows them to the Cliffs of Insanity. When they reach the top, Vizzini has Inigo stay behind to kill the man following them (the Man-in-Black) because he (Inigo) is a master swordsman. When the Man-in-Black reaches the top of the cliffs, Inigo reveals he wants revenge on a man with six fingers who killed his father. Inigo and the Man-in-Black find they have a mutual respect for each other, but they must duel and the Man-in-Black wins, but does not kill Inigo. Vizzini sees that the Man-in-Black is still following them, so he has Fezzik stay behind ...

... the orphaned niece of the towns’ minister, Reverend Parris, is the main person who accuses people of sending their spirits on her and the other girls. What starts as children dancing in the woods, leads to the accusation and execution of many innocent people for witchcraft. The two works of literature have very similar qualities including setting, conflict, and general aspects of the characters. There are also specific parallels between characters, such as Abigail and Hester, and Parris and Dimmesdale. The settings in both cible occur in 1692. The time period is very important in both pieces because it is a time of religious intolerance and a conservative attitude pervades in ...

... his castle. He thought that in doing this, he would in some way, escape the wrath of the Red Death. He could care less about his people, locking them out of his home and leaving them uncared-for. Hour by hour, minute by minute, second by second, the life of the ebony clock slowly dies. This is a hint that the Prince fails to recognize- that man can escape death, but at the end it is inescapable. Him and his court are too busy dancing away and their moment of death comes closer and closer. Prince Prospero’s efforts of avoid the epidemic is unsuccessful because death will eventually conquer all who oppose. In the final scene, Prospero had to “confront” the Red Death. This time however, ...

... will defy authorities even after he is captured and tortured, trying to keep one last shred of personality intact. b. If he's so heroic, why is he so foolhardy? It makes no sense for him to create a permanent love-nest when he knows it will speed his capture. "It was as though they were intentionally stepping nearer to their graves," he thinks. A careful man would never open up to O'Brien without knowing whether he is to be trusted. You can argue that Winston's continuing defiance of the Party after his capture is one more way of courting disaster. Do you think Winston secretly enjoys ...

... Had Kumalo thought to get involved in his son's life earlier, Absolom probably would not be in the trouble he is in now. Kumalo's self-centeredness is clear when he learns of the trouble Absolom is in: "Perhaps his son and the girl would go back with them to Ndotsheni, perhaps he and his wife would give to the child what they had failed to give their own. Yet where had they failed? What had they done, or left undone, that their son had become a thief, moving like a vagabond from place to place, living with a girl who herself was no more than a child, father of a child who would have no name? Yet he comforted himself, that was in Johannesburg." (Pg. 87.) Kumalo thinks about what he could h ...

... he was drunk. This is not unusual for someone drunk to do if that person is a beater. "I used to be scared of him all the time, he tanned me so much." (Twain, p. 25) Besides him beating Huck, his father has put fear into Huck, which is sad, but is realistic. Besides beating Huck, he also scolded him for trying to get an education; he though Huck was trying to become smarter than his father, and he wouldn't have that. "You're educated, too, they say -- can read and write. You think you're better'n your father, now, don't you, because he can't? I'll take it out of you." (Twain, pg. 26) Not only is Huck's father mean and petty, he is also greedy. "'I've been in town two days, and I hain' ...

... and keepers of the fire. He had hoped this would repair any damage that had been done to their short friendship. Ralph was doing his duty as the chief and tried to deal with their individual problems. However, this solution ended up doing more harm than good. The friction between Ralph and Jack flourished throughout the book. Jack soon became obsessed with savagery and killing pigs. The only thing he cared about was meat. And Jack does kill a pig; however killing that pig sacrificed the fire and the boys missed a rescue opportunity because the fire went out. But Jack doesn’t seem to care. "Jack, his face smeared with clays, reached the top first and hailed Ralph ...
