Red is also a primary colour in which young children are attracted to, this could explain why Lennie likes her so much; he has a childlike manner. As she is wearing many red items, it could be suggested that she may be a dangerous character in the novel. She is said to be wearing a “cotton house dress” with “wide eyes, heavily made up”, the clothes and make up do not fit into place with someone who lives on a ranch; it could imply that she wants to leave an impression on the men in the bunkhouse. The mention of ostrich feathers tells the reader that she has money and/or is wealthy. Despite her
I believe the author’s point of this story was to make the readers value their culture and traditions of their family and to understand how meaningful it is. In the beginning of the story, we are introduced to the older sister, Dee. "Dress down to the ground, in the hot weather. A dress so loud it hurts my eyes… Earrings gold, two, and hanging down to her shoulders. Bracelets dangling and making noises when she moves her arm… The dress is loose and flows, and as she walks closure, I like it.
Elizabeth Meza English 107 MWF Wilcoxen 5 December 2014 Scarlet Red As the fog cleared, she found herself still blinded—rather poisoned by the thorns penetrated deep within her scarlet beauty. Though her beauty was recognized for that flicker of life in her eyes, every time you saw her smile you could not help but envy her bliss. Deep down to her soul she was different. When she could smile, she pondered knowingly how awful it felt to live in darkness. This withdrawn expression froze her face as if she had forgotten what it means to smile.
A. "Sometimes I horse horse around quite a lot, just to keep from getting bored. What I did was, I pulled the old peak of my hunting hat to the front, then pulled it way down over my eyes." (21) B. " The way I wore it, I swung the old peak way around to the back-very corny, I'll admit, but I liked it that way ".
My favorite would have to be the simile just because I can clearly picture in my mind that the eyes of this man can look like the dark black night sky. I don’t have a least favorite type of figurative language in the piece. I feel like she did an amazing

Explain the ways in which the writer develops the core character in: The darkness out there and when the wasps drowned The Darkness out there Penelope Lively begins “The darkness out there” by stereotyping Mrs Rutter as a “Dear old thing”. Later on in the story Penelope develops her into an “old bitch” this already starts to change your perception of her, but when a small flashback is revealed our first instinct of Mrs Rutter is changed, and this time for good. At the beginning of the story Mrs Rutter is referred to metaphorically as “a creamy smiling pool of a face” which suggests that she is warm towards Kerry and Sandra. Also, the word creamy also states that she is soft. As well as that the word creamy has a percussive sound associated with it which emphasizes her pleasance.
The yellow glove Homer wore on his and Miss Emily’s buggy rides represents the friendliness of Homer that the town seemed to enjoy but the yellow pillow that Miss Emily’s head rested on when she passed most likely represented her mental state at that time. Lastly there is the color red. Red is the color of love and the bedroom in the upstairs of the house was decorated in red symbolizing her love for Homer.

This word can also mean to gain a victory but the only person here being damaged is herself. In the second stanza Duffy continues using graphic imagery to show the poem’s persona’s self-hatred. The word ‘bride’ generally has positive connotations but here Duffy uses a combination of plosives, sibilant and negative vocabulary to reflect what’s happening in her character’s mind. ‘My bride’s breath soured, stank/In the grey bags of my lungs.’ The choice of lexis with ‘stank’ in particular highlights how she even
Foxy as an Adjective It’s probably my favorite way to describe someone who’s sexy (however it stems further than just appearance), but still, like, why foxy? Why the fox? There are a multitude of other animals that one could refer to as ‘attractive’. Comparing a man to a stag would be a compliment, inferring that he’s powerful and majestic, and while it is very scarcely used in the context of ‘He’s a stag/stag-like’, there’s no ‘stagly’ (honestly I would enjoy being called that). For females, cat’s are a good comparative animal when describe attractive appearances, so how come catty means to be hurtful, rather than to be sexy.
