Each page includes two rhyming words found at the end of the second and fourth line to promote interest and play on words. Repetition is a fourth feature used by the author where she repeats ‘How about you?’ at the end of each four-line rhyming section. Vocabulary is used cleverly by the author to introduce geographical names and locations as well as new terminology such as ‘hail’ ‘strife’ and colloquialisms such as ‘G’day mate!’ These features can be used to support four of Serafini and Moses’ ways of developing a child’s reading ability (2014, p. 465).
Per our conversation via telephone earlier today and on behalf of Colleen McManus, this email is to seek approval of our intention to provide a conditional pay stipend to the ADC Inspector General, Greg Lauchner. As you are aware, the Governor’s office appointed the ADC Deputy Director, Jeff Hood, as the Interim Director of ADJC. To cover the roll of ADC Deputy Director during his absence, Greg Lauchner has assumed the duties of that position. Director Ryan desires to compensate Mr. Lauchner with a $1,000 stipend per month during the time period he performs these duties. Request approval.
the idea of equality was taken to the extreme. Satire is also used to exaggerate how awful equality is to persuade readers to believe that total equality will violate human rights. Kurt Vonnegut also uses symbols such as handicaps which make everyone equal and Harrison Bergeron to display the lack of freedom present in a world of total equality.
Chapter Two In Chapter 2, the author expresses that it is okay to make mistakes. I agree with the author, but I have a hard time practicing it. The author also provides a permission list of what we should allow ourselves to do.
Although this article focuses on the decline of big words and the author’s prejudiced love for them, Bernstein uses phrases that are colloquial. Referencing dichotomous relationships, she states, “Add to this list language junkies
62-63). This line uses descriptive words to help the reader imagine them being thrown against the hot and dirty asphalt. It aids their imagination to help them connect, visually, to the story. For my second example, I will be referencing lines eleven and fourteen, “Decided we were men, not boys, Decided we should go wherever we damn wanted to.” There are very strong descriptive words here, and definitely some words that use connotation, and overall create a good image for the reader.
In retrospect, Vonnegut was commentated in demonstrating majority of his tips in his writing. In the story, Vonnegut conveys tips numbers six, two, three, four, and eight. It has already been explained how tip number eight is shown at first glance in the story of 2 B R O 2 B. The author is very keen on presenting information to the reader. The first page is basically just background information about the society that the characters are placed in and about some of the characters themselves.
“The year was 2081, and everybody was finally equal”1 is a statement that in the mouth of the American writer should sound at least victorious. However, Kurt Vonnegut in the opening line of his dystopian short story Harrison Bergeron creates a highly ironical declaration, which he later ridicules by the following story. The author who gained his fame by writing the novel Slaughterhouse-Five, describes the world supposedly equal and free, but entirely bound by the laws that command the lives of people. That describes also fairly well the second short story 2 B R 0 2 B, which title refers to the famous phrase “to be or not to be”2 from William Shakespeare 's Hamlet, as mentioned in the text, “the trick telephone number that people who didn 't
Sex is another exposed motif he used. Vonnegut seems to say that sex is something humans charish. “Oh, Mr. Trout...teach us to sing and dance and laugh and cry. We’ve tried to survive so long on money and sex and envy and real estate and football and basketball and automobiles and television and and alcohol -- on sawdust and broken glass.” In reality sex is just something humans use to recreate another human being, it’s how we continue to keep the human species alive.
Example: “They would not emerge like the sweating barehanded behemoths from the troglodyte mass of football” (Para. 3). Link to argument: Faulkner uses specific word choice to aid the reader in persuading that he is a credible source for using high level words properly. Using good diction provides the reader with a deeper understanding of what the author or writer is
Sometimes people forget that there are often many flaws in seemingly perfect things. They imagine perfection, but there will still be many factors that were overlooked. The author of “2BR02B”, Kurt Vonnegut, realizes that perfection will never be achieved. Even in the far future when there are many new, helpful innovations and perfection will be strived for, it is not obtainable. Through Vonnegut’s use of setting and symbolism, it is evident that he feels that there will always be flaws.
The story, “2BR02B” by Kurt Vonnegut tells the story of a world where there is controlled population, old aged and diseases were overcome, and the world was seemingly positive. In this place humans call their home, certain people volunteer to ie, and the population continued to stay controlled. The Wehling family are expecting three triplets, but they must need to find 3 people to sacrifice. Dr.Hitz, Leora Duncan, and the father of the newborn children are killed, with the painter creating an amazing mural willing to be killed after seeing all the deaths unfold. This leads to the question, is the world really worth sacrificing yourself for others?
The author uses a limited amount of diction throughout the book, because she wanted to keep the main focus on the character. “A particularly repugnant guard was known as sh*thead,”(210). This example of diction describes how everyone felt about the guard. She uses the diction to give the reader a better thought about what was going on throughout the book. “For the umpteenth time, Louie cursed whoever had stocked the raft,” (164).
He uses it to help set the tone also. He does this in-order to help the reader understand how the people spoke in more of a slang type fashion. For example, “Well, don’t do nothing you don’t want me to hear about” (Steinbeck, 7). The language of this portrays slang, as it does throughout the whole novel. The reader probably thinks of somebody who isn’t very smart or isn’t very clean.
Roman Catholics in the 16th century defended their faith against the Protestant Reformation. Catholics fought back against critics by excommunication, killing, wars concerning religion began due to the feeling of being threatened and some Catholic women reformed convents through four basic principles. The condition of the church in late 15th century and early 16th century, was full of clerical ignorance, simony and other signs of disorder. He wrote the 95
