Zaroff, intelligent, but likewise generous, uses his attractive personality to lure ship-wreakers into playing a game of survival. Zaroff's personality, I believe, can best be described as calculating. Although a highly civilized man who has all the best pleasures of the world in food and drink, it took him no time to begin sizing up Rainsford as if Rainsford were a common simple animal. Zaroff would also demonstrate a sense of equity to his prey giving them good clothes, a set of rules, and the opportunity for a good night's rest before he played The Most Dangerous Game with
C.J. was understanding the gravity of the situation. But he could be very smooth when he wanted, and he used his friendliest voice with the reporters, assuring them over the telephone that there really was no problem, just kind of a routing technical situation. Somehow the reporters concluded that the sick monkey had been ‘destroyed as a precaution’ when in fact the nightmare, and the reason for the troops, was that the animals hadn’t been destroyed” (Preston 219). As with most controversial situations that deal with life or death, there tends to be mass panic.
Secondly she gave good examples to why Captain Torres has the traits that hope mentioned in her opinion piece. For example she said that Captain Torres was a man who could put his trust into anyone and it didn’t madder what the barber supported he just had blind trust in him that he wouldn’t kill him while shaving his beard. The theme she had decided to write about was “trust” which I though was a good choice also because that was one of my choices for theme too. Hope explained how the captain was known as the military officer that would kill any rebel in his sight, but turned out that he didn’t even like killing them or maybe even hated it but because it was his job he had to do it anyways. Overall Hope’s description of the captain Torres was very well explained and written.
That’s right. (He pushes it towards Eric.) You ought to like this port, Gerald. As a matter of fact, Finchley told me it’s exactly the same port your father gets from him.” The repetitive use of personal pronouns “you” and “your” suggest that Mr Birling is very apprehensive and worried about making good first impression on Gerald. As Mr Birling is aware that the Croft family are his social superiors he is even more concerned about making a good impression which explains why he shows off about the port to Gerald.
In order to establish a successful Chalet, it must be in a great location for visitors to take advantage of the sights and activities available. In addition, a Chalet must prove to provide comfort, security, and private accommodations. Our Chalet, “Cape Breton Chalet’s” also provides a quality breakfast for the visitors. This component of the accommodation is key in differentiating between our particular Chalet and other accommodations offered in the area. Other businesses who have experienced success have suggested that a Chalet in the Hospitality industry must possess a natural attraction to visitors by providing services a visitor may find appealing, such as the complementary breakfast.
Andy in his escape venture needed an alibi; he needed to create an alias to protect his true identity as a man in need to escape. Andy created the timid, kind and outgoing man that performed bank advice and was well liked throughout the system through this he was able to evidently execute his plan without anyone even suspecting that mild mannered Andy Dufresne had escaped the walls of Shawshank Prison in 1966. “Courage is grace through pressure.” Ernest
He proves himself to be a gentleman; ‘he just took out his handkerchief and wiped his face’ as his only reply to Bob Ewell’s spits, curses and threats that ‘wild horse could not bring’ Miss Stephanie to repeat. He is also a courageous man, perhaps not in the physical means and ‘with a gun in his hand’, but he ‘strolled on’ when Mr Ewell attempted to prompt him into a fight because of his ‘peaceful reaction’ and the way Harper Lee uses this adverb shows that Atticus sticks to his ideas of justice, is indifferent to violence and stays with the good. However, it is because of his kindness that he was first seen as’feeble’ and could not do ‘anything that could possibly arouse the admiration of anyone’ which causes sympathy towards him as it is obvious his qualities of mental skills are far better than shooting a gun or smoking pot. Despite his children thinking he was dull at the beginning, he continues to
“The best thing we can do is get ourselves rescued,” (Golding, pg.53). Ralph still shows the best of a person when he is selfless. By wanting to get off the island like everyone else he knows what it takes to get off because his dad is in the marines. In the novel, “Lord of the Flies,” by William Golding, he emphasizes that Ralph is an ego in the book by keeping everyone together and safe. What Ralph does is he teaches us to be selfless and try to help other people before ourselves.
As soon as he found out that Lennie was being hunted down by the men on the ranch, especially Curley, he didn’t try to stop it or convince the men to re-think their actions. Once George told him of his plan to kill Lennie himself, Slim understood but he didn’t actually try to help them avoid the situation. He could have done so by encouraging them to run away and he could have given them some money to give them a head-start. I do agree to a great deal that Slim is a positive role-model for those around him. He possesses positive traits like believing in equality and trying to do the best by those around him.
This shows Makhaya’s decency to refuse the body of young girl and shows that Makhaya is a man of his morals. We see Makhaya attempt to re-invent himself and to be a genuine and honest person. We see this when George Appleby-Smith, the police officer will grant Makhaya refugee status if he answers, “Yes” to the questions posed. However, when Makhaya was asked whether he liked a certain political individual advocating Pan-Africanism, he honestly answered, “No”. This was Makhaya’s attempt to be genuine and honest.
