Twain And Finn: Breaking The Language Barrier
559 Words - 3 Pages

.... at the way that Huck seems to be becoming more and more civilized. He states “...they say you can read and write. You think you're better'n your father, now, don't you, because he can't?” Perhaps this statement shows disgust in Huck through not following the moral values of his father, or perhaps this is just merely jealousy on his father's part.

The Hobbit: A Review
1122 Words - 5 Pages

.... be summarized in a few sentences. The ending is expected since the author gives hints about it. As in the introduction when he says that the hobbit would gain something, this means that he will not die. Then, the reader is not kept in suspense and does not expect to see what happens at the end. The last climax (or what is supposed to be the climax) takes a long time to occur (the last fight—good (men, elves, dwarves & eagles) vs. evil (wargs & goblins)) and this reduces its effectiveness. After the climax there is the long return home. It is quite boring since there is nothing to expect to and the reader knows that the hobbit would get home safely. In my opinion it ....

The drink took on a role as if it were her companion: someone who gave her confidence, support, and LOVE. She drank to ease the tention before meeting friends, continued to drink once they got there to keep the mood light and conversation interesting, was always up for one more round, and was always the last to leave. ....

.... works by granting papal indulgences to contributors. In the Middle English dictionary a pardoner was a seller of indulgences, a rascal, or scoundrel. The Pardoner was a scam artist.
