Sal had a lot of relationships during the story,as a result, Sal got impacted and changed a lot by the relationships with Gram and Gramps and Mrs. Partridge. Relationships impact and mold who you are, and in the story Walk Two Moons, the relationships that Sal had slowly guided her to the acceptance of her mother’s death. Sharon Creech’s goal or motive in choosing the theme was to evoke feeling in the message, relationships can impact or change a person, was to show that this can relate to everyone, they can also mold who you are. For example, Phoebe a main character in Walk Two Moons helped mold Sal into acceptance, because when Sal saw the same thing happen to Phoebe. She then realized that the things her mother did were not because of her, it was because like Sal says in this quote,”For the first time, it occurred to me that my mother’s leaving had nothing whatsoever to do with me.

Allegories are used for many reasons, such as debating about politics, or create moral meanings, but what intrigues me is that authors are able to express their ideas on controversies going on in the world with their stories, at the same time, it give a better context to the story, and give a peek of how it would feel if the reader was in the situation, just with an allegory. Kate Chopin, most assumedly, was a supporter of the feminist movement, and she showed her support of the women’s movement through her allegories, for example her short story “The Story of an Hour.” "Story of an Hour” starts out with Richard, Brently Mallard’s friend, came home with terrible news that Louise Mallard’s husband, Brently Mallard died in a train accident.

Malala was a girl who wrote on the internet, stories of the terrible things she saw and knew, with a fake name, so that nobody would know that it was her. Anne Frank wrote in a diary, almost everyday talking about how her life was, living through World War 2. Anne Frank got her diary on her birthday. When her family and friends hid in a n attic from the Nazis she wrote in it. One day, a while before they went to the attic she wrote “Added to this misery there is another, but of a more personal nature, nd it pales in comparison to all of the suffering I just told you about.

Not being able to fully grasp who’s perspective I’m reading this from, but then realized this story is about her. I would like to believe that she wrote this almost like a diary or journal about her struggling relationship. To really understand, people might have to sympathize with the author because many people go through different situations in life. For example this story was her in a relationship with friends involved trying to help. Of course at times individuals they would like to believe their judgment is better than people trying to help.

Due to the fact that each of them were doing their own separate activities outside of their team practice, quality and quantity of their conversations were starting to degrade. Susan just wanted to stay in her room and not do much, she expected Whitney to do the same, but Whitney said that she had her own goals to strive to.

And when Ashley’s mother is taken away, hope, faith, and safety are taken away from Ashley. The author wrote these particular lines because she wanted to convey to the reader the conflict of the story by using the symbolism of Ashley’s mother. The impact these lines have on the text is significant in the story because it makes the reader ask questions and come up with inferences concluding the text.

The mistake was that I didn’t complete the answer. I then added more information about who Mrs. Driver was in the novel. I added that she also took things from the house and how she was afraid of being accused of stealing if things started missing from the house. The sixth mistake continued to be about Mrs. Driver. I didn’t show my understanding of Mrs. Driver’s role in the novel.

In “The Metamorphosis”, Kafka mentions a picture of a women dressed in nothing but fur hanging on the wall of Gregory’s bedroom. This picture is a symbol of those failed relationships. Gregory had a younger sister by the name of Grete, and after undergoing his transformation, she was the only one who cared for him, the only one who dared step into his room, and the only one that his father allowed to care for him. Grete observed Gregory’s behavior on a daily basis and would try to accommodate things for Gregory so that he felt more comfortable in his current situation.
