70 Raymond offers to the Guthrie brothers, which are a couple of young boys who are part of the novel, some money for helping him and his brother on the farm. Raymond considers the fact that the Guthrie boys did something for him, so he gives them recompense for their troubles. While his brother was just talking with Tom Guthrie, who is the Guthrie brothers’ father, and not even thinking about how to pay back the boys. This is clear evidence that Raymond is kinder than Harold since he thought about the boys while Harold didn’t. On the other hand, Harold is more observant than Raymond.
Heaney’s poem ‘The Barn’ is set in a barn, most likely one on the farm where Heaney grew up. It describes an experience Heaney has had in the barn.

“Chris the medical examiner has inspected the parts and is one hundred percent sure they are sheep, not human.” The Mayor offered with a smile. “Why would someone do that?” a question shot up from the crowd “We will continue to look into what happened, try to find who it belonged to, my guess is it was dropped by someone leaving town, The important thing is that we can confirm one hundred percent that it’s not human, therefore we do not have a serial killer on our hands.” The crowd seemed satisfied with the answer and were relieved by what mayor Louis
Crevecoeur's Rhetorical Devices in Letters from an American Farmer In the book, Letters to an American Farmer by Jean De Crevecoeur, the writer attempts to explain his personal take on the society in which he's observed.

All in all, his devices and language make the book easy to understand, read, and agree with.
O’Hara gives Ron this extremely high status by sending him to Columbia University where he is a Ph.D. Candidate to show that there is no stereotypical homosexual and can exist inside of any man regardless of his race, or education. Like George C. Wolfe’s Colored Museum O’Hara uses satire to mask the seriousness of the theme of slavery, homosexuality, and falling out of one’s roots. In the scene where Ova Seea Jones and Ron get into a rift, it is ironic that Ron would choose to introduce his name as faggot so that everyone on the farm would know him as that, when earlier on the play he told Mutha Wit that only faggots were allowed to call each other faggots. This can be interpreted as Ron’s way of “coming out of the closet” and embracing his identity as a gay, black male.

The Open-Minded Milkman Throughout the story of Fiddler on the Roof, Tevye, the main character, consistently displays his open-minded temperament. There are several examples that epitomize this trait in the modest Jew, and the first one is exhibited on the night of Tzeitel’s engagement to Lazar Wolf. Tevye’s taking the outstretched Russian hand symbolizes his acceptance of a culture that is much different than the one to which he is accustomed. For as long as any citizen in Anatevka can remember, there has been reluctance to the Russian influence in the town. Despite going against the grain, Tevye’s acceptance of the soldier’s inviting gesture quickly rids the crowd of any hesitance towards the Russians.
They would support each other as to go on living and working, but this relationship transforms as the two go through more and more situations. Never in the history of the Jewish people, men have never recited Kaddish for themselves. Elie and his father were in a line that was heading to the pit, an infernal heat that was rising, as they were getting closer. They were told by another inmate to lie about their ages, the Elie was eighteen and that his father was forty.

He walks miles in the sun over mountainous rocky trails just to check and see how they are doing. Unlike the other doctors, he is interested in each individual and not just the diseases.
