Secondly, the speckled band was believed to be associated with the gypsies. The last false clue was that the whistling was coming from something outdoors or even something applying contact to the sturdy bars on the windows. The mood and tone converted to happy and uplifting. This was because Helen was much happier without her abusive step-father in her life. Helen would go on to lead a particularly successful and normal life, even though she was on her own with her spouse.

It was wonderful for Lurhmann to keep the movie as loyal to the book. A great news for Fitzgerald 's fans. The cast, other than Dicaprio and Maguire did well except Carey Mulligan who portrays Daisy Buchanan. Carey managed to act as a damsel in distress Daisy with her Snow White likes tones but it wasn 't enough to be on par with Dicaprio 's performance as Gatsby. Her character was supposed to be a memorable one but in this film, she was overshadowed by Gatsby.

Amy wished to be a famous artist and live in Rome. These dreams may have been enjoyable, but they were fanciful. The girls grew over the course of the story and moved away from their childhood wishes but still held on to their castles for some time. When the March girls finally let go of their childhood wishes they realized that they had overlooked the greatest happiness of all which is to love and to be loved. Meg's dream was to be so rich that she would always wear the finest clothes and never have to do any work because she had so many servants.

She represented old money and the ideal of social mobility. Gatsby never wanted Daisy because he loved her, but because she was his door to becoming old money, to gaining the social backing, his proof of true social mobility. No matter how rich and extravagant Gatsby became, he would never truly achieve social mobility without Daisy showing that social mobility is a fraud. A fraud keeping people in this dreamlike state, waiting for that day when they are able to freely move through social class from one level to the next. A fraud so profound it could only be created by the American people; and realized by them, it keeps them alive fueling their fervent passion and helping them overcome monumental struggles later to be let down by the one thing that held them up ---The American

Not all friendships are the same; “ A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.” Concerning the friendship in this story, one friendship was based on caring, because George cared for Lennie, another was companionship, Curley’s wife was a very flirtatious person, especially to the men around her and Lennie. Candy was wanting to gain stability. George knew that Lennie had problems from the first day they met each other. Although he had the mindset of a child, George still managed to be a good, caring friend. He was more like Lennie’s parent.

The story conveyed that love can sometimes be beautiful yet ugly. It showed that loved is beautiful in such way that I think it changed Hazel’s perception about life. It is because of love that the characters became happy because Hazel was joyous when Augustus did something for her that no one ever did before. Yet, the story showed that love can also be ugly in such way that Hazel mourned of the life of the man that she loved and Augustus did not want to leave Hazel behind. The story showed beautifully the two contradicting sides of love and that is, love can sometimes be beautiful yet

However, he was wise at the end. Jonas’s naivety was evident when Jonas was thinking about volunteer hours and how they were always important to him because the other hours of the day were regulated heavily. This shows that Jonas is naive because he does not know that having very little free choice is not normal, and that most people from the time before him had the freedom to choose how they spent their time, “The freedom to choose where we spend those hours had always seemed a wonderful luxury to Jonas” (Page: 26). Another example came later in the book as Jonas was talking to The Giver about color and quickly rebukes the community that they should not have eliminated color. The example shows how Jonas was naive because he did not know all of the evils that the world had created by means of color.

Heritage; is a great value that has been passed down from generation to generation. It is of great value and although it can be worth very little to other people, to your family it is priceless. Alice Walker wrote the story, “Everyday Use”, to show an importance of Mama’s and Maggie’s heritage. There is also Dee who has that heritage too, but she thinks that they of no good use and think they are not important. Also in “Everyday Use “Mama and Maggie have Family Conflicts with Dee.

Gemma is the protagonist and Ty is the antagonist. Some other characters include her parents, who can be seen as the antagonist as well. In the book it states, “Gem, they loved work and expensive things and influential friends more than you. They only loved you when you acted like them.” This quote shows how Gemma “save” her. Both Ty and Gemma are credible, although may not seem as credible as Gemma.

In Erica’s mind being with Chris is the best moments of her life. She gives up on living any present or future moments since, to her, nothing can compare to the prefect moment of being with Chris that she created. For instance, in the first passage Changez analyzes the legitimacy of the relationship between Erica and Chris. Changez recognizes that it is possible that the relationship they shared could have been as real as Erica has made it out to be. However, Changez also considers that the fondness that Erica describes could all be imaginary.

Reading Lupe 's story, I was impressed by how she kept trying even after she was put down so many times. Not everyone can turn rejection into motivation, but Lupe kept going in hopes of making a better future for her family. Unfortunately, even today in this country non-English speakers/people who struggle with English are often seen as uneducated and less than. I 'd ask Lupe what advice she could give to people who, unlike her, feel they have no motivation to keep trying to succeed in a system that seems set up for them to
