Keilani Spahn Mrs. Moretti English 3H 1A 20 August 2012 Descriptive Language In the short story “The Stolen Party,” Liliana Heker uses lots of descriptive language to describe Rosaura’s experience at a birthday party. For example, when Rosaura is passing around cake to the other kids, she remembers a story, “in which there was a queen who had the power of life or death over her subjects.

Children are also very influential upon their parents shopping and when reminded of something yummy they enjoy, children ALWAYS ask for it. Between the appeal of a new recipe and a child’s plea, Jell-O has a very good chance of making it into the grocery cart!

For example, when Lenina realizes that she likes John, who is from the Savage reservation, she cannot stop thinking about him. Fanny, Lenina’s friend, tells her to take Soma so she can be like everyone else; happy, cheerful and without any emotions.”Half a gramme had been enough to make Lenina forget her fears and her embarrassment” (Huxley 128). So when she finally takes the Soma, it helps her to fit in with her surroundings, pushing away any feelings of fright or humiliation. Another example is when the people from the New World use Soma during the orgy.
