Momaday’s text is very complex. He focuses on the description of weather, animals, and colors by using different literary devices. Momaday uses metaphors: “Great green and yellow grasshoppers are everywhere in the tall grass, popping up like corn…” In this sentence, he compares grasshoppers to pop corn, making the text come to life. The reader can also notice alliteration in the letter “g” through the word “great”, “green”, and “grasshoppers”. Alliterations are very important to the author’s tone: “The hardest weather in the world is there.
Momaday and Brown have different purposes toward their respective landscapes as seen in the passages. Momaday’s purpose holds to view culture history of the Kiowa Indians and how the land itself holds beauty, in a most appealing positive attitude, which also reflects his background; “for my people.” Brown’s purpose, seen in the passage holds an opposite view, where it reflects a very dull aspect towards the Plains in a demoralized negative way. Momaday’s fanciful diction keeps his praise for Rainy Mountain alive with imagination choosing words such as “brittle” and “writhe,” giving a sensory image of how he feels and sees devotion of pride for the land. Momaday uses sources from his culture and the Kiowa to show a sense of clear imagination of the kind of heritage the land holds. He describes Rainy Mountain using his sensory imagination of how he feels and sees the landscape; colors in specific, making the audience have an idea of how it’s like when he mentions, “The grass turns brittle and brown… cracks beneath your feet.” He compares the many flashy insects as “yellow grasshoppers … everywhere… popping up like corn to sting the flesh…,” seeing the land with praise as to his culture of the Kiowas being reverent.

This is one of many examples of Leopolds ability to give nature human characteristics in a way that allows you to really connect with and care for nature. He wants you to be
This scene showing Elizabeth standing on the rocky outcrop, is set at Stanage Edge, a dramatic gritstone formation north of Hathersage. The use of an establishing shot sets up the film, foreshadowing key themes and values of the film. The use of nature in the setting links to the Pantheistic viewpoint that all nature is sublime and has been created by God the one true domain. The constant emphasis on nature’s beauty draws out the romantic perspectives of the two main characters, Elizabeth Bennet and Mr Darcy. Gentle music plays in the background of natural sounds including a bird chirping.
The reason the National Graphic Channel helped was because while I was watching it I saw a dessert that was full of dry grass which looked like wheat and animals running around which I thought was very cool and from that it gave me an idea to do wheat. After realizing what crop to grow I figured out the best place to grow wheat's is in Saskatchewan, While researching about wheat's I realized that they are one of the most important crops used as of today.

It is when there is a chase scene it has the typical chase music. I do not like that all, but it’s not that big of a deal. It definitely fits with the setting of the forest because it has that outdoor feel to it also. Tuvia Bielski goes to an SS officer’s household and shoots his family, except for his wife. The music in this scene is very grim.
