The ranch was noiseless and still with the morning, the countryside was so closely grassed over, it seems to be painted green and flicked with dew. The morning breeze tickled the trees and made them dance until there was another warm, humming quietness. Hidden within the grass crickets sang in harmony as the grass swayed in the breeze. All the trees were spread out reaching toward the blazing sun trying to grasp all the warmth.
The old ranch house cloaked in a thin sheet of dust over the old splintered wood. Flies buzzed around the fallen apples that had turned brown, rotting on the ground. The old wooden floors creaked with every step as George swung the tattered door on its rusted hinges into the morning. The door creaked as the rusted hinges

The small shaggy puppy lay in the box curled up. His paws soft and round. The fur came past his eyes and curved around the little wet black nose that moved around sniffing the air. The little puppy wobbled up on this little legs and leaned up against the rim of the box. Standing on his hind legs he searched around before he saw Candy. He stood still as the little pup looked around the farm at the apple trees, the sheep, and the wooden rocking chair in the corner of the porch. Then his bright eyes the size of marbles looked at Candy for a long while until Candy reached down and smoothed out the fur above his …show more content…
Come ‘ere boy,” Candy shouted as he put his fingers to his lips and blew. He whistled three times and sure enough, the small puppy came skidding around the corner, his pink tongue flopping, and his once thick fur was blown back by the wind. The puppy reached Candy and licked his face all over knocking him over again. Candy burst out in laughter still trying to catch his breath, the puppy was all over him until George pulled him away and put the rope around his neck with a loose tie. While the puppy attached Candy with kisses he whispered to George, “Trust me, George, he’s

Ater secretly saving money that he earns doing odd jobs for over two years, Billy is able to purchase his dream: a pair of registered redbone coon hound pups at twenty five dollars each. He names the dogs "Old Dan" and "Little Ann" from the names Dan and Ann that he saw carved in the middle of a heart on an old sycamore tree. Before buying the pups, Billy remembers a passage fro...
Relieved that the puppy held his bladder long enough to get outside the boy sat down underneath a tree and waited for the puppy to finish his business. The puppy, after relieving himself, began to playfully nip at the boy’s arm happy that his playmate came down to a level where they could both play. Understanding the cue, the boy began to roll the puppy over and they enacted in a mock dogfight. Not taking the game seriously the puppy began to lick the boy’s face, causing the boy to laugh. It was at that time the boy’s mother came out the door and whisked him and the puppy out to the barn.
Would you like some?” The kids ran over and Mr. Shiftlet opened the trunk of his car. “Hey angel, would you mind hopping in the trunk and grabbing the bag of candy in the very back of the trunk for me?” The little girl walked over to him and he lifted her into the trunk. “She can’t get it, will you help her?”
Manipulation of language can be a weapon of mind control and abuse of power. The story Animal Farm by George Orwell is all about manipulation, and the major way manipulation is used in this novel is by the use of words. The character in this book named Squealer employs ethos, pathos, and logos in order to manipulate the other animals and maintain control.
“Behavior is the mirror in which everyone shows their image.”(Johann Wolfgang von Goethe). This quote explains that we need to behave well, in order to portray ourselves as the good person. Unfortunately some people ignore another's behavior or bad image because they are of high status. It works this way in governments and even schools. In Animal Farm the animals ignore their leaders bad behavior. Animal Farm is written by George Orwell, from England, in the year 1945. In Animal Farm there are some virtuous and some negative behaved animals: the best example of a virtuous behaved animal is Boxer and the best example of a negative behaved animal is by far Napoleon.
Although George Orwell’s Animal Farm was created in order to mimic individuals as well as occurrences that took place during the Russian Revolution period, it is still possible to gain a comprehensive understanding of the text without a past knowledge of history through the exploitation of human nature’s imperfections. Following the publishment of his novel, Orwell confirmed that his goal in writing this fable was to expose the wrongdoing of the Soviet Union as well as the treachery of the true ideas of the Revolution. Nonetheless, there have been several other examples of events such as the French Revolution that can effortlessly be contrasted against components of the allegory. However, we need not to dig no deeper than to the fundamental faults in human nature to witness the catastrophic consequences that attributes such as hierarchy, propaganda and betrayal have on today’s society.
It was early, the sun was just beginning to peak over the mountains that lined the distant horizon. The breeze carried with it the scents of dew and the variety of wildflowers that grew along the lake shore. Flocks of birds flew over head, their cries piercing the silence of morning.

“The pen is mightier than the sword.” This is a popular saying that explains that, sometimes, in order to persuade or convince people, one should not use force but words. In Animal Farm, by George Orwell, animals overthrow the human leader and start a new life, but some animals want to become the new leaders. To make the other animals obey the pigs, they first have to persuade the farm’s population. Squealer is the best pig for this job because he effectively convinces the animals to follow Napoleon by using different rhetorical devices and methods of persuasion.

As the first rays of the sun peak over the horizon, penetrating the dark, soft light illuminates the mist rising up from the ground, forming an eerie, almost surreal landscape. The ground sparkles, wet with dew, and while walking from the truck to the barn, my riding boots soak it in. The crickets still chirp, only slower now. They know that daytime fast approaches. Sounds, the soft rustling of hooves, a snort, and from far down the aisle a sharp whinny that begs for breakfast, inform me that the crickets are not the only ones preparing for the day.
When everyone in town found out about the noise of the puppies, they were very surprised. People started to visit the puppies, and saw that their eyes were open, they could run and jump, and they made lots of noise! They were yellow, and had white spots on their paws, just like Hattie. Suddenly, everyone in town wanted one of Hattie's puppies!
This play on imagery and imagination allows you to picture the puppy being potty trained. You are able to see the excited expression and the wagging tail for using the bathroom in the right place. Personall...
The sunset was not spectacular that day. The vivid ruby and tangerine streaks that so often caressed the blue brow of the sky were sleeping, hidden behind the heavy mists. There are some days when the sunlight seems to dance, to weave and frolic with tongues of fire between the blades of grass. Not on that day. That evening, the yellow light was sickly. It diffused softly through the gray curtains with a shrouded light that just failed to illuminate. High up in the treetops, the leaves swayed, but on the ground, the grass was silent, limp and unmoving. The sun set and the earth waited.
