Animal Farm: Utopia
Number of words: 1090 - Number of pages: 4.... land and clime,
Hearken to my joyful tidings,
Of the golden future time.
Soon or late the day is coming,
Tyrant Man shall be o'erthrown,
And the fruitful fields of England,
Shall be trod by beasts alone.
Rings shall vanish from our noses,
And the harness from our back,
Bit and spur shall rust forever,
Cruel whips no more shall crack.
Riches more than mind can picture,
Wheat and barley, oats and hay,
Clover, beans, and mangel-wurzels
Shall be ours upon the day...(p.22-23)
After the song the animals were even more excited. They sing the song so loud it wakes Mr. Jones up. .....

lucky on becoming a movie star or on a cover of a magazine because they were
noticed or spotted by some important person. Without education then you wouldn't
have any ideas where to start on how to become successful. Also, you wouldn't

excellent person. It helps you to socialize better with other people. It takes
more than just a common sense. .....

process.

many more crimes. Luckily for Bigger, though, the Relief Agency did find
him a job with the Daltons. When Bigger went to the Daltons house for the
first time, he brought his gun, because it made him feel equal to the white
people.
When Bigger got to the Daltons house, he didn't know whether to enter
the house by the front or back door. He looks for a way to the back, and
realizes the only way in is through the front door. As he rang the d .....

Stephen Leasock's "Arcadian Adventures With The Idle Rich": Satire
Number of words: 1040 - Number of pages: 4.... Leacock's technique combines
money with humour, and accompanies his moral message with ironic characters;
their exaggerated actions, and a constant comical tone to prevent readers from
being offended.
Leacock's utopian world is filled with humorous labels that represent the
"Plutonian's" personalities. "Ourselves Monthly"; a magazine for the modern
self-centered, is a Plutonian favourite. To fill their idle days, the Plutonian
women are in an endless search for trends in literature and religion. Without
the distractions of club luncheons and trying to achieve the "Higher
Indifference", .....

A Comparison Of Catcher In The
Number of words: 2100 - Number of pages: 8.... presented in their themes. These themes teach that being middle or upper class does not guarantee happiness, treating others with good manners and equality are important, and pronunciation and terminology can “put you in your place” in terms of class.

Eliza is a classic victim of being “put into her place” based on the way she speaks. She goes to Professor Higgins in hope that he will give her lessons o .....

Tom said he slipped Jim’s hat off his head and hung it on a limb right over him, and Jim stirred a little, but he didn’t wake. Afterward Jim said the witches bewitched him and put him in a trance… (15).
Ignorance was a tool for Huck in the beginning of t .....

“Do You Believe In Fate Neo,”
Number of words: 1215 - Number of pages: 5.... “nut” in jail.
To Bigger’s chagrin he is not in control of his life. His life is dictated by a large group of white people’s false belief of superiority. With every cause there is an effect, and the effect that this burden has on Bigger turns him into an animal, living for only one thing, survival.
“There he is again, Bigger!” the woman screamed, and the tiny, one-room apartment galvanized into violent action. A chair toppled as the woman, half dressed in her stocking feet, scrambled breathlessly upon the bed. Her two sons, barefoot, stood tense and motionless, their eyes s .....
