Harry’s birthday again passes without being noticed by the Dursley’s, but Harry receives .....

.... Yossarian is stationed with his Air Force squadron on the island of Pianosa, near the Italian coast and the Mediterranean Sea. (Heller) The squadron is thrown thoughtlessly into brutal combat situations and bombing runs on which it is more important for them to capture a good aerial photograph of an explosion than to destroy their target. Their colonels continually raise the number of missions they are required to fly before being sent home so that no one is ever sent home. Heller's satire targets a variety of bureaucrats, the military-industrial complex, and the business ethic and economic a .....

.... figurative meaning. Imagery is Dickinson’s main figurative tool in this poem. the idea that crumbling is progressive is supported by the last two lines of the first stanza, which state, “Dilapidation’s processes Are organized Decays” This means that crumbling is a result of dilapidation, which is caused by gradual decay. The deterioration that results is progressive: one stage of decay leads to the next until crumbling inevitably comes along. The second stanza contains four images of decay: “cobweb, rust, dust and borer in the axis.” These images a .....

.... `Tis not to me she speaks./Two of the fairest stars in all the heaven,/Having some business, do entreat her eyes/To twinkle…” Romeo also uses another image to show how the stars can't compare to Juliet's brightness: “What if her eyes were there, they in her head?/The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,/As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven/Would through the airy region stream so bright” Contrasts between light and dark emphasize the amount of love felt between the two lovers. Changes from light to dark reflect and foretell changes ahead for the .....

.... part of the first stanza Frost describes a witches brew with all the ingredients being white. Witches have traditionally been ugly people wearing all black, the color that represents darkness and death. By saying that the white spider and the dead moth are like ingredients of a witches brew is actually putting those two objects on a lower level of existence. Ingredients in witch’s brew are usually despicable items that are not worthy of any human being. Frost talks about the spider on a white heal-all holding up a dead white moth. A heal-all is a flower traditionally known for .....

.... mathematical equations. However, due to man's past achievements, a child can perform the most complex problems on a calculator without the hours of straining. As I write, I am using a technological advance that I have become dependent on: the computer. If not for this piece of machinery, I would be stuck for minutes setting margins with the traditional typewriter, and looking up the spellings of various words in a dictionary! Man has made living too easy. We have only solved problems with solutions that lead to another problem. The new problem created is laziness and dependence. The l .....

.... that it would be a great honor that he would accept, “If chance will have me King, why, chance may crown me”.(Act 1 scene 3, line 143) The prophecy of Banquo’s son having power in the future effects the actions of Macbeth later in the play too. The thought that Banquo’s child might take over the thrown from Macbeth makes him feel the need to get rid of him. Fleance, Banquo’s son, gets scared as his father is being killed and flees, “Fly, good Fleance, fly, fly, fly!”.( Act3 scene 3, line 18) After his talk with the witches Macbeth starts to think .....
