The biggest obstacle that the youth has to overcome is that of the raging ocean. This reinforces the authors point that the youth's an independent surfer because he goes out surfing in extremely dangerous conditions

The Tweed Head River bypassing system started getting built in 2001 and was fully developed in 2008. The Tweed head river bypass was created to keep a safe, crossable entrance to the tweed river and also to reestablish and uphold the coastal sand for the southern gold coast beaches in Queensland. The Tweed head river bypass works by sand being collected by the southern side of Tweed River at Letitia Spit entrance, and pumps the sand under the river to vents on the northern side. From there currents and waves, move the sand causing the Gold Coast Beaches to become nourished with sand. The two perspectives I am going to be talking about in this paper is the local surf community point of view and the tourism point of view and the environmental,
When Lyman looks at the water, he, “felt something squeezing him inside… and tightening and trying to let go all at the same time” (Erdrich 329). He knew that it was how Henry really felt. The water moved very harsh that day just like Henry’s mind had been for a while now. Lyman did not know what had been going through his brother’s mind until he say the water.
Chapter 17: This allusion is a reference to the words turbulent seas which is to being at sea, but it really means any type of chaos or argument. There is also a simile used to compare rape case to a church sermon. Chapter 18: This case is just like the Scottsboro Case where African Americans were accused in Alabama of raping white American women. This case may have been on a train but this case is accusing African Americans just like this rape case.
The crew and citizens aboard the Titian took a chance in sailing on the Titanic. The Titanic was very risky because it was not fully safe with not enough lifeboats for the number of people that were on it. The Titanic also went through a very risky area with tons of icebergs because they thought it was unsinkable. The lookouts were supposed to be extra carefully watched. It states this in the text when it says, “They were the “eyes of the ship,” and on this particular night Fleet had been warned to watch especially for icebergs.”
These scared, unprepared men also faced death due to the ocean that served as several of the men’s graves. The conditions these sailors met in water were awful , due to the high
Rosenblatt wrote the article to convey that selflessness can be perhaps the best act of charity and power a person can give, and that it can really show a person’s true character. The man must’ve known that if he stayed in the water that he would perish, but he put the needs and lives of the other passengers before his, a true act of courage and kindness that the survivors surely remember each day they continue to live. The passenger showed the he had power over nature, even though in the end, he himself succumbed to nature. He showed that even the greatest acts of compassion can be given in the face of death. The overall theme of Roger Rosenblatt’s article, the overall inherent message, is that selflessness is perhaps the most valuable gift to be given, even when the cost itself may be
“That day changed me forever and now I fight for sharks’ rights. I have always been an active animal and environmental advocate” (paragraph 5.) The risk the young boy on the beach took affected the rest of his life positively and if he never took a chance such as that, he may never have become the type of person he is. When the narrator decided to take a risk, he had no idea what the outcome might’ve been. He affected the fisherman’s way of thinking.
The video we chose to illustrate Country music is The Winding Stream: The Carters, the Cashes, and the course of Country Music. The film is accessible to students and can be easily found on Netflix. The UTSA library does not have the film on hand however you can make a request and they will get it for you. In this film the life of a Virginia family known as the Carter Family, is shown and how they made an impact on music by creating a folk band.
These words paint a vivid picture of the runner’s situation in the mind of the reader. The "stresses" refer to the workload that students have to face in their daily lives, combined with their social anxieties. The "peace somewhere in the chaos" likely refers to the runner’s desire to relieve his stress of having to juggle homework while also maintaining a social life. Finally, Bai’s symbolism of the "voices" in lines 18 and 31 as well as the equations in line 20 sheds light on the continuity of the issue of poor mental health due to exclusion and stress. The "voices" talk "vivaciously amongst themselves, but never realize or even acknowledge the runner’s existence in the hallways, and are absolutely oblivious to his suffering and loneliness, emphasizing the issue of social exclusion among high school students.

John Cheever’s “The Swimmer” is a beautiful, multi layered depiction of a man's unwitting downfall. The story follows Neddy Merrill, a somewhat alcoholic and adventurous man, as he takes a expedition to go home by pool hopping the country. Neddy is the source of his own undoing as he represses years of his life pool by pool and eventually he has to come to terms with his life. Cheever poetically uses symbolism to indirectly show the changing of Neddy, his situation, and the world around him.

Never have I read a poem that carried such power and weight in its words than "Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas. Following suit with my other preferred poems, this is a relatively straight forward poem that has meaning clear as crystal. There is no single part of this poem that didn't leave me impressed, even the structure chosen was brave. To date, "Do not go gentle into that good night" has been the only poem to both give me goosebumps and tear up, which I was not a fan of in the middle of class. All in all, I have never felt a poem as strongly as Thomas's.
