Sometimes it works to take things slow, but other times, its nice getting caught up in it straight from the beginning - sort of like Vampire Academy. Not that I am comparing it to Vampire Academy is any way, for there is neither vampires nor an academy involved - just an instant start to the action and adventure. Kelly 's method of keeping us in suspense was amazing, she never gave a piece of information that wasn 't relevant to the

This is a good place for the story to take place because the simple cotts illustrate the simplicity that the villagers thought they were living in. All the villagers knew was their own world, their own rules and their own culture, which is illustrated by how surprised Kira was when she learned about her father’s village (204). That simple village was also a good place for the story because it shows how the villagers lived compared to how the Guardians lived, and how much the quality of life improved for the “important people” because of all the power they had. Villagers had to use the stream to wash and the people in the Council Edifice had indoor bathrooms (69). The setting helped develop the conflict because they all had similar cotts, which illustrated how the community was so similar and how anyone who was different was looked down at (43).

It appears very inch of these abodes and all belongings are taken care of and held with great pride.

Landon Conroy Mr. Schmidt English 9 Honors 3 April 2024 Title of paper The battle between monster and man has always been one-sided and this is because man fears the monster but the monster doesn’t fear man. Even though we have evolved throughout time, we have done nothing to eliminate our fear of these monsters and give ourselves an advantage over them. Some examples in “The Odyssey” were when Odysseus and his crew faced Scylla, with their new spears, weapons, and a ship, but the monster still took 6 crew members easily, even though the men had all of the equipment. The men were also scared to death.

To answer the question of “Who is the monster?” when talking about “War of the worlds” and “Monsters”, one must understand what a monster is. A monster is not simply a creature so ugly or monstrous it frightens people, it can also be defined as a person or thing who excites horror by wickedness or cruelty. This second definition establishes that we, humans, can be classed as a monster even if we do not fit the stereotypical description of what a monster looks like. This question is an important

During my time observing this area I saw that people were walking through and looking around at their surroundings. They were making sure to not walk into each other. Other than just people walking through the area, there were people that were sitting around and relaxing or doing school work. Most of the people were in groups of around four or five people. Occasionally, these groups would look around and it seemed to look like they just looked around when they were bored.
