Lennie is more excited about it than George, ‘come on George, tell me.’ Repeats Lennie, suggesting that although he knows what the dream is, he wants to hear it again to give him some security and hope. Throughout the first section stienbeck emphaisises how unusual the friendship is. Firstly he descirbes the two men as completely different. Lennie is animal-like ‘the way a bear drags his paws.’ And George is controlled, ‘everypart of him was defined.’ This shows how the friendship is weird because of how different they are and Steinbeck also tells the reader that ranch workers are alone. This timie in America is when workers travelled to California alone to find work, and having relationships was not normal.
Ronnie Donnie Andy Batto November 2nd, 2011 Ronnie Donnie Lavesque, the most ostracized child you could ever see. In reality he was very nice kid who would love to socialize but he had some very odd hobbies. He knew that people would not understand his hobbies, but he made a choice early in life that he valued who he was and what he did over what people thought of him. You are probably thinking how odd could his hobbies be? Some of his hobbies are playing with toads and stamp collecting, but by far the weirdest hobby was collecting dead ravens.
Blatantly, Alfred Hitchcock introduces his movie with a shot of cawing birds, establishing suspense, and then drops the audience on their rears, stranded with a few shots of squawking birds. There is lack of a pertinent element in the film that runs amuck in the story, and this element is foreshadowing. Foreshadowing is one of the various strengths in Du Maurier’s The Birds and it is by far the most effective, and so one can elaborate to the conclusion that without a plethora of clues, the reader is numb to arising suspense. Another opportunity given to Hitchcock was the option of paralleling his movie to the genius of the story, because without taking some material from the author, his version is almost a different species and thus the lack of suspense. Furthermore, Daphne Du Maurier stresses important details so the suspense is evident.
In both stories, the black characters are already prejudged by the white people they come across. The people who are targeted by the racism will overcome and continue to live their lives. The stories happen in different parts of the world, but the mindset of discrimination was the same everywhere at that particular time in history. Wright writes about Jim, a merchant sailor. Olaf was a merchant sailor just like Jim when he was younger; the only problem with Olaf was the color of his skin and his intimidating size.

At first the conch was what brought the boys together, and it was what made them vote for Ralph to be chief. Everybody was perfectly fine and happy with Ralph as their leader until Jack started challenging his authority. Jack caused everybody to drift away from the civilization associated with Ralph and the conch, and push them towards the savageness associated with the beast and the “fun” of hunting and killing. ”’Seems to me we ought to have a chief to decide things.’… This toy of voting was almost as pleasing as the conch…’Him with the shell.’…’Let him be chief, with the trumpet thing.’” (Golding p. 24) Everybody voted Ralph for chief, other than Jack and the choir. The only reason they voted for Ralph was because he had the conch.

Dickens demonstrations here that Tiny Tim is the most vulnerable of all the lower class yet he is one of the most giving and happy members of the lower class, which puts shame on Scrooge and his fellow upper class men. I was going to write about how Dickens uses the 3 ghosts to turn Scrooge around which shows the people of his time how anyone can change and has good in them and that it is not hard to change, just to accept the others around you. Not only did Charles Dickens pen a novella that will be seen for many decades to come, Dickens uses this novella to try and get his point across to the people of his time, and how in which both the upper and middle classes were to get along and how to get along with each other. Dickens does socially commentate on his time more than trying to pen this novella into a religious moral
