Once there was a goat. It was a smart little clever goat. There was a fox, and he wanted to eat the goat when he was small. This is a story about them as children. One bright sunny day the goat was roaming around in the barn. The fox was looking at the goat from a small hill. On the hill the fox was making a plan to eat the goat. When the plan was ready the fox went over the plan before doing it so the plan won’t fail. Then the fox tries to walk normally to the goat. Then the fox asks the goat if he wanted to go for a walk to the hill where the fox made the plan, and the goat said “ yes “. So the goat and the fox went on a walk to the hill. The fox said that we will walk for an hour, and the goat agreed. The next part of the fox’s was to take the goat to the hill where he made his plan. Because he set a trap there that he will make the goat go on. Before the fox and the goat went on the hill the fox said “ wait I need to check something on the hill. Then right away the goat knew that it was a trap. After the fox went up to the top of the hill. Before he got back down the goat took an other way up the, and reset the trap. Then yelled I am up here on the top of the hill. Then right way the fox rushed up the hill and stepped on the line attached to the trap. The fox got into the net that was a part of the trap and got fooled. The fox stayed in there for a hour and the goat laughed hour at the barn. After the fox got out of the net he started to make another plan, and the goat was just walking around the barn. Again the fox went over the plan to make sure it won’t fail this time. So the plan was this to make the goat to go no the line to launch the knives and cut the goat up. So now the fox thought it was time to put the plan into a... ... middle of paper ... ... the barn. It took a while for the fox to get out of the lake. After the fox got out of the lake he rushed to the hill where he makes all his plans. He started to scratch a diagram. After the diagram was he thought how he could put this in a plan. Then the idea came to him. He thought he could camouflage. Then after the goat would move the line the trap would sling many arrows at the goat, and this time the fox camouflaged the trap so well he thought the goat would not spot the trap. But the goat saw the fox building the trap. But the goat did not see that after he would make his foot moved the line arrows would shoot. When the goat got back to the barn he made night vision glasses. So he could look clearly and break the fox’s trap, also the glasses go find camouflaged things. The goat thought why would the fox camouflage it at night but he put the feature after all.
Benjamin Percy uses the title “Me vs Animals” for a specific purpose and chose each word carefully. With only three words, the title conveys competition and comparison, gives the reader a connection to the essay, and instills a fear of the unknown. A title can make or break an entire piece of work. I think Percy contemplated over this title and chose three words that would accurately sum up his whole essay, with success. I would like to learn from this how to create a title that does just that.
In the poem "The Bull Calf" the stanzas go from good to bad feeling. This is the same way that the calf's life goes. This is also the way that the narrator's feelings for the calf's life go. There are also many symbols throughout the poem. Without these deeper meanings the poem is just about a calf the dies because it can't produce any milk.

Jenny asked, “Why do you think he did not give up?” Jacob replies, “He knew he could not fly so he built machines so that he could
The Pacific coast port city of San Francisco, California provides a distinctively mysterious backdrop in Dashiell Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon. Unlike many other detective stories that are anchored in well-known metropolises such as Los Angeles or New York City, Hammett opted to place the events of his text in the lesser-known, yet similarly exotic cultural confines of San Francisco. Hammett used his own intricate knowledge of the San Francisco Bay Area - coupled with details collected during a stint as a detective for the now defunct Pinkerton Agency - to craft a distinctive brand of detective fiction that thrived on such an original setting (Paul 93). By examining the setting of 1920’s San Francisco in The Maltese Falcon, it becomes apparent that one of Hammett’s literary strengths was his exceptional ability to intertwine non-fictional places with a fictional plot and characters in order to produce a logical and exceedingly believable detective mystery.

“Fables” Introduction: Now I know a little bit about fables, after doing a little bit of research in my English class. I know that fables are short stories that center on animals. Fables also all have morals at the end, stated outright, or inferred. These morals are sometimes called Aesops, after the original creator of the fables. Aesop was a Greek slave who wrote a lot of fables.
The girl took great pride in the fact that she helped her father with the chores on the farm. Her main chore was to water the foxes. Laird would help with a small watering can though he would usually spill most of his water. The girl would also help her father when he would cut the long grass around the fox pens. He would cut it and she would rake it up. He would then throw the grass on top of the pens to keep the sun off of the foxes. The entire fox pen was well thought out and well made. The foxes were fed horsemeat, which could be bought very cheap. When a farmer had a dying horse her father would pay for the horse and slaughter it. Her father was very ingenious with his fox farm and the girl was obviously impressed. She was proud to work with her father. One time while her father was talking to a salesman he said, “Like you to meet my new hired man.” That comment made her so happy, only to have the salesman reply that he thought it was only a girl.
A fox is one cunning animal. And in the story, it is proven to be right. From the fox's lesson that one can see only what is essential by looking with the heart, the author leaves the desert as a changed person. He agrees with the little prince's thought: 'the stars are beautiful, because of a flower that cannot be seen';.
