.... seperated for such a long time. All the sudden the conversation thickened when a bomb went off right beside the boat. Later the officers had realized that there was a hole on the bottom of the boat and were unable to stop to stop the huge amounts of water that were getting in the boat. They decided to abanden the boat. Everybody got in the life rafts and watched the boat slowly sink till there was nothing left to watch. After a few days at sea the kids and officers land on an island. As soon as they land on the island Jack and his "group" get together and tie up the officers with vines on the local trees. This is Ralph's worst nightmare come true. After they are don ....

.... when he gets quite drunk and asks the waiter to complement the singer. This is a show of his drunkenness because the singer is awful or at least the thought so before he started drinking. This is one among a plethora of bad habits like smoking, cursing, and being extremely cynical (everyone is a phony). Holden is by far not all bad, inside he is moral and generous. There are very clear examples of these good qualities. He had some moral sense because when "bought" the prostitute Sunny for a throw he could not go threw with it, so he paid her anyway and sent her away from him. Holden was charitable when he gave a considerably large donation of twenty dollars to the t ....

.... to life in the story "The Yellow Wallpaper." On the surface, this gothic tale seems only to relate one woman's struggle with mental illness, but because Guilman was a prominent feminist and social thinker she incorporated themes of women's rights and the poor relationships between husbands and wives (Kennedy and Gioia 424). Guilman cleverly manipulates the setting to support her themes and set the eerie mood. Upon first reading "The Yellow Wallpaper," the reader may see the relationship between the narrator and her husband John as caring, but with examination one will find that the narrator is repeatedly belittled and demeaned by her husband. On first arriving at the v ....

.... yet there were those who were not content in either, and these were emphasized in Jay Gatsby. Jay Gatsby had been one of many who attempted for fame and glory, and due to his persistent dissatisfaction the results culminated in success. Unlike others Gatsby felt condemned not to be a fradulent dog. “The Truth was that Jay Gatsby, of west Egg, Long Island, sprang from his platonic conception of himself.”(pages 104, 15-16) Distorting his name, inventing a seventeen-year-old self-conception, he masked his counterfeit wealth from bootlegging with an image he wore with the help of Dan Cody. He was the man that gave Gatsby the opportunity. After Cody’s death Gatsby “was ....

.... and throws the radio out the window. Another example of his brutality is displayed when he beats his wife, Stella. Lastly, his arrogance and ferocious actions are most apparent when he rapes Blanche, while his wife is in labor in the hospital. Stanley Kowalski’s first exhibition of his brutal actions occurs at poker night. Blanche turns on the radio, but Stanley demands her to turn it off. Blanche refuses and so Stanley gets up himself and turns it off himself. When Stanley’s friend, Mitch, drops out of the game to talk to Blanche, Stanley gets upset and he even gets more upset when Blanche flicks on the radio. Due to the music being ....

.... by Dinah, who convinces him to remove to the north. Joseph and Dinah attend the death of Jacob in the falling action, both forgiving the wrongs committed against them in their father’s name. The story concludes with Dinah’s death. Point of View Diamant has Dinah effectively tell her story from three different narrative perspectives. The bulk of the novel is related by Dinah in first person, providing a private look at growing up and personal tragedy: "It seemed that I was the last person alive in the world" (Diamant 203). Dinah tells the story that she says was mangled in the bible. Understandably, Dinah’s relation of her mothers’ stories is do ....

.... through ancestors. Another character trait that helped him achieve his goal was bravery. When he first found out about the expedition on the Beagle, Charles knew that if he took this chance, he would have to face deadly swamps, fatal diseases and even savages. Yet the thought of traveling to the beautiful tropics and maybe discovering a new species meant more to him. Even as he experienced extreme seasickness almost everyday of the five year long voyage, Darwin would not turn around and go back to England. Another and maybe the most important trait was the ability to work hard. If Darwin found something that interested him, he would be willing to spend years working on ....
