decorative adjectives.

Sexuality In Wiseblood
Number of words: 1243 - Number of pages: 5.... to come. Haze reacted to the incident on different levels. Before watching the "show," he was filled with curiosity. So badly he wanted to view this "EXclusive" show. After glancing at the body, he first thought that it was a skinned animal. When he realized what it was, he at once left the tent, ashamed, and perhaps frightened of the object before his eyes.
Hazel’s reaction was not unnatural. The sight with which he was confronted would invoke both fear and embarassment within most ten-year-olds. Not only was the body nude, but it was inside a casket as well. The author parallels t .....

But Brabantio`s comment tells us that everything is not all right: (I.iii.293-4) "Look to her, Moor, if thou hast eyes to see:/She has deceived her father and may thee." By disobeying her faher Desdemona has shown herself able to betray the person she is supposed to love and--according to Venetian norms--obey.

Types Of Learning
Number of words: 399 - Number of pages: 2.... give you an example. Let’s say you eat everyday at twelve o’clock. You look at your watch and then go eat. After awhile you can just look at your watch, know that you’re hungry and start to salivate. Without seeing any food. This is classical conditioning. There is a way to reverse this but it is quite extensive.
