would cause a worse temper whereas I believe that Jaz would like some words
of consolation. Of course Tony knows Jaz better than I do, but most people
like some comforting when they are upset about something.

text is London. This may not be correct, but I know of no other English
city with an Underground).
Miss Massey and her situation is .....

Theme Of “Richard Cory”
Number of words: 492 - Number of pages: 2.... It is an ironic setting because we think just the opposite as we
are reading the poem.
The second way the author illustrates the theme is imagery. The
fact that Richard Cory was viewed as quietly arrayed makes the reader think
that he has no problems and that everyone wants to be like him. Also, the
poem states that he is “richer than a king” so the audience gets the
feeling that this is a happy man who is happy with his success in life.
When on the other hand he wants to kill himself. Moreover, the workers on
the pavement say that he is “schooled in every grace .....

Daddy, Vampires, Black Hearts ( An Insite Into A Life )
Number of words: 697 - Number of pages: 3.... Germany are used as symbols of the horror of male domination. The constant and crippling manipulation of the male, as he introduces oppression and hopelessness into the lives of his women, is equated with the twentieth century's worst period. Words such as Luftwaffe, panzerman, and Meinkampf look are used to descibe her father and husband as well as all male domination. The frequent use of the word black throughout the poem conveys a feeling of gloom and suffocation.

Duddy Kravitz 2
Number of words: 493 - Number of pages: 2.... never have the same impact on the reader because of the slow start.
After the first section of the book, we finally are able to see where the story is headed and we are able to settle down and develop a true sense of who Duddy Kravitz is. At this point the author slows down the rate of which events come and allows the character development to happen more naturally. The book became much easier and more enjoyable due to this. The reader could begin to feel the connection with the main character by realizing the impact on Duddy through his ordeals. For example, .....

A Thing Of Beauty Is A Joy For
Number of words: 2413 - Number of pages: 9.... within the first stanza is almost of excitement, as if this beauty has suddenly unleashed itself onto his senses, its effect is more powerful than the drug induced mood in `Nightingale`.

The beauty of autumn is emphasised through phrases like; `ripeness to the core`, `swell the gord`, ` o’verbrimmed their clam .....

Comparison Of Huck Finn And To
Number of words: 245 - Number of pages: 1.... and Huck are two adventurous souls but in very opposing ways. Huck’s idea of adventure is to escape from society, their beliefs and all of their conformities, but he does it in a way that is level-headed and sensible. Tom, on the other hand, is more likely to make up an adventure based on something he had read in a book and not really trying to escape anything. All of his ideas and schemes come from books, unlike Huck, who has actually lived the fantasies Tom has imagined.
The two are alike in one way though. They both have a very strong sense of adventure. I think this one trait along with their .....
