The hovering is them investigating whether they are going to be fed or is the material food, but they are not attracted to specific smells like I thought that they was. The smell seems to have no affect at all towards or against the hummingbirds. I accept my hypothesis terms because after observation and studying the facts my hypothesis was almost correct and very similar to the exact and correct
It seemed to free her of a responsibility which she had blindly assumed and for which Fate had not fitted her” (Chopin, 33). In an attempt to explain her level of sacrifice to Madame Ratignolle she says, “I would give up the unessential; I would give my money, I would give my life for my children; but I wouldn’t give myself” (Chopin, 189). The children are often in the care of a quadroon or other caretaker and do not interact much with either parent during the course of the novel. The narrator says little about Etienne and Raoul, themselves. Their names are seldom mentioned.
Samantha Shapter ENG 101-13 Essay #3 4/4/11 I see “Buzzards” by Lee Zacharias as a memoir; she even alludes to it herself: “It’s a rare family that cheers to learn one of its members is writing a memoir” (263). Zacharias uses her knowledge of buzzards to deal with her father’s death. Although she shows she has extensive knowledge of the birds, I found it overwhelming and boring to read paragraph after paragraph about the frightening birds. Losing a parent myself, I can identify with her methods of coping, but I found myself more interested in reading about her father than the buzzards. However, though the central topic of her essay may be boring, Zacharias is an excellent writer.
“Between Walls”, by William Carlos Williams, interacts with the reader by allowing the reader to create a back-story for the hospital. In one reader’s interpretation the “back” of the hospital represents an area that is unused, and often neglected and forgotten. The word “shine” brings to mind an image of gems and beauty; combined with the word “broken” it creates a picture of a “diamond in the rough”. The poem uses various literary devices to involve the reader. Imagery, syntax, and the structure all help the poem catch the reader’s interest and hold that interest long after the reader is finished.
So that when he does, he can understand the book better. That is one of the things that Their Eyes were Watching God lacked, making it a good story, but not a great book. One instance proven by Wright is when he says, “Turpin’s faults as a writer are those of an honest man trying desperately to say something; but Zora Neale Hurston lacks even that excuse. The sensory sweep of her novel carries no theme, no message, no thought”( ¶ #5). When he says there is “no thought” he means that there is nothing in the book that makes the reader think.

“This is a heck of a place.” The place he was referring to is one like no another. The duck blind was my sense of peace to escape reality. It brings a chill to me, not from the cold December morning, but from the adrenaline pumping through my body. At this point, I think of nothing but the hunt. The thought of a group of six greenheads
Kumokums story starts with him sitting down beside Tule Lake and he was interested in Tule Lake because that's all there was, Tule Lake. Kumokums wondered how it would look if there was something around the water since that was all that was there. So he reached down deep into Tule Lake and drew up a handful of mud. He piled it into a hill in front of him and patted it down. As he patted it began to spread beneath his hand, and out around him, until Tule Lake was completely surrounded by earth and he was left there standing on an island.
Gwen Hardwood The emotive qualities of Gwen Harwood’s poetry resonate with her readers. She uses her own memories to illustrate love for her family, her loss of innocence and the swiftness of time passing. She demonstrates this in her poems Father and Child, The Violets and At Mornington. The poem The Violets opens with the line “It is dusk and cold,” the time of day symbolising that this persona has reached old age and is metaphorically drawing closer to nightfall or the end of her days. Death is made apparent with the negative adjective “cold.” The flowers she is picking at the beginning of this poem are clearly what stimulate her memory of childhood as they are referenced later in the poem.
