Ethan Frome: Failure
Number of words: 656 - Number of pages: 3.... to help around the house. Ethan took an immediate
propensity to her cousin, Mattie, because she brought a bright light upon
his dismal day. He seemed to have found someone that cared for him, was
always happy and could share his youth, unlike his sickly wife who always
nagged him. He longed to be with Mattie, however he had loyalty to his wife.
Being married to the wrong person proved to be Ethan's first failure.
Ethan's second failure was not being able to stand up against his wife. His
wife claimed that a new doctor said that she was extremely sick, and needed
more help around the house. .....

Black Like Me
Number of words: 645 - Number of pages: 3.... was something else. I was imprisoned in the flesh of an utter stranger, an unsympathetic one with whom I felt no kinship. All traces of the John Griffin I had been were wiped from existence. Even the senses underwent a change so profound it filled me with distress. I looked into the mirror and saw nothing of the white John Griffin's past." (pgs.15-16) The theme of isolation is first discovered in this quote. Griffin feels imprisoned in a body other than his own. He does not like the person he sees before him and feels that the figure he sees in the mirror has no relationship with the mind an .....

The Lost World: Private Interview With Dr. Ian Malcolm
Number of words: 1165 - Number of pages: 5.... were
destroyed, why is that?
We all had to make a choice. We agreed that silence was the best
option. The evidence of there ever having been dinosaurs on the island had
to be destroyed so that no one would ever know about the park. It was just
too dangerous, perhaps when we have means of controlling the dinosaurs we
might try to bring them back again.
4. The dinosaurs on Isla Sorna, are they still there?
Yes, we believe that this time we should be studying them instead
of destroying them. We have set up a surveillance system to observe the
dinosaurs for years to come. Perhaps thi .....

The Sword In The Stone: Kay Gets What He Deserves
Number of words: 432 - Number of pages: 2.... Sir Ector and the other people who had always `ruled'
him.
I think that the Wart was a better person to Kay and although he may not
have been superior to Kay, he certainly had a better personality and was
kinder than Kay. With Merlyn's `education', the Wart learned not only how
to lead well, but also to be a better person, and Merlyn taught him much
about how to treat other people with respect and to relate better with them.
When the Wart meets Robin Wood and Maid Marion, he learns through Marion
that women are no different to men and should be treated equally. He is
also taught the pointl .....

Year 10 Asian History Origami
Number of words: 637 - Number of pages: 3.... in 1845. The name origami was coined in 1880 from the words oru (to fold) and kami (paper). Previously, the art was called Orikata.
Meanwhile, paper folding was also being developed in Spain. Arabs brought the secret of paper making to North Africa, and, in the eight-century AD, the Moors brought that secret to Spain. The Moors were devoutly Muslim and their religion forbade the creation of representational figures. Instead, their paperfolding was a study of the geometries inherent in the paper. After the Moors were driven out of Spain during the Inquisition, the Spanish went beyond the g .....

Edgar Allan Poe And The Raven
Number of words: 2113 - Number of pages: 8.... of his
love is visited by a speaking raven, whose repetitious, meaningless answers
torture him to the point of insanity (see Appendix R) (Decoder, Internet).
The feeling of lost love portrayed in the poem might have reflected the
death of Poe’s wife, Virginia, in 1847 (Qrisse, Internet). As it is read, a
definite rhyme scheme is present: internal rhyme in the first and third line,
and end rhymes in lines two, four, and five. All eighteen stanzas of the poem
are arranged like this, but Poe never makes it seems unexciting or
repetitious. Probably the most noticeable and most b .....

Taronga - Victor Kelleher
Number of words: 1606 - Number of pages: 6.... - he chose to sneak away from Greg quietly in the dead of the night, instead of a fight or a loud confrontation. He is also a humanitarian, as he cares for other animals, even when killing them. This reinforces my attitudes and views on heroes, as I believe that most true heroes are quiet, usually introverted, and do things to make the community better - often without receiving the recognition they deserve. The extroverted heroes, such as Superman, is what society expects, and because of this they often overlook the real heroes. On the other hand, Ben is not a passive characte .....
