Number of words: 1112 - Number of pages: 5.... the dinosaur era of computing, a typical machine filled a large room and was shared by dozens of researchers. Hiltzik credits Robert W.

hand before the arrival of the Moor Othello, Iago says,
"With as little a web as this will I ensnare as great a fly
as Cassio." [Act II, Scene I, Line 163] His cunning and

purposes. Throughout the st .....

The Crucible 3
Number of words: 382 - Number of pages: 2.... That upset Proctor greatly, because
people would look down on him with disdain, and it would
blacken forever his name.
What was most important to him was to make a stand
against the insanity of the town, for himself and for God,

Number of words: 611 - Number of pages: 3.... come in
and take over. It's not like most stores where at night when the store
closes they lock the doors and go home. Then, in the morning whoever is
going to be opening comes in and unlocks the store and gets it ready for
the first customers of the day. This situation would never happen at a
store that is open all the time because there always has to be someone

someone outside is causing trouble. However, if they locked the doors and
wouldn't let any customers in they would be ly .....

Self-Expression
Number of words: 667 - Number of pages: 3.... or expression a person feels. For example,
if a person clenches his or her hands, it might mean that the person is
mad or angry. Sometimes, when I play a tennis match and I win a big point,
I pump my fist with excitement. If students are really bored or tired,
they might put their elbow on the desk and their hand on their cheek.
Another example of hand gestures is the middle finger. People use the
middle finger when they are mad or angry. For instance, if I were driving
and someone cut me off, then I would give them the middle finger. It
might not be r .....

Number of words: 875 - Number of pages: 4.... of Cleopatra, even if what he says is very positive:
...her passions are made of nothing but the finest part of pure love. We cannot call her winds and waters sighs and tears; they are greater storms and tempests than almanacs can report. This cannot be cunning in her; if it be she makes a shower of rain as well as Jove.
(I, ii, 147-152) After Antony reveals that he has just heard news of his wife's death, we are once again offered an example of Enobarbus' freedom to speak his mind, in that he tells Antony to "give the gods a thankful sacrifice" (I.ii.162) .....

The Eleventh Commandment
Number of words: 1094 - Number of pages: 4.... conditioning of embryos. Their powers and control over these particular jurisdictions gave them great power, and with that the ability to manipulate others. "'You ass'... said the Director,... 'Hasn't it occurred to you that an Epsilon embryo must have an Epsilon environment as well as an Epsilon heredity'"(Huxley 23). Through a hierarchy of Alaphas and Betas down to the lower cast Epsilon, everyone was suited for their job. The Director however, through his position of authority, was able to "... condition the masses to hate the country,"(Huxley 30). In doing .....

A Raisin In The Sun
Number of words: 720 - Number of pages: 3.... is
in terrible pain that no human being should endure. Other words like
writhing and froth-corrupted say precisely how the man is being
tormented. Moreover, the phrase "blood shod" shows how the troops
have been on their feet for days, never resting. Also, the fact that
the gassed man was "flung" into the wagon reveals the urgency and
occupation with fighting. The only thing they can do is toss him into
a wagon. The fact one word can add to the meaning so much shows how
the diction of this poem adds greatly to its effectiveness.
