The feelings I listed made me infer that something bad was going to happen as the story progressed. 2. What can we infer about Doodle based on his description?

I use the word resilient because although the doctors, and his parents, and lots of other folks were saying that he can't do this or that; in the end he ended up being successful and completing every task they said that he won't be able to do.
Though Deck was very wise with his words, he often contradicts himself and changes his beliefs. At the beginning of Caucasia, Deck was a very race-oriented individual who cared deeply about style and he had a monstrous amount of pride for who he was (especially amongst his friends). In the beginning of the story Birdie said “My father always spoke differently around Ronnie. He would switch into slang, peppering his sentences with words like “cat” and “man” and “cool”” (10). This is showing that he was trying to make himself into something he never had been, just to do what he thought was “cool” at the time.

Through his speech to the troops of the Third Army, one can learn a lot about him.

Finding Biff In the dramatic play, Death of a Salesman by Arthur Miller, there is an interesting mix of rounded and flat characters. Linda, the mother, and Happy, one of the sons, were among some of the flat characters in the story. Even though they were flat their reactions to the more rounded characters certainly had an effect. One of the most well rounded characters is Biff Loman. The character of Biff develops and grows immensely by searching his past and examining relationships with himself and others to find his true self.
The truth is, I knew that I was going to use an old paper, but procrastinated on revision. The morning of peer critique, I woke up in labor and knew that I was not going to make it to class.
