But in the end, they never heard or saw of these miners. They later filled up the mine, closing it off for good. Throughout the following chambers he talks about doctors, auscultation, and listening for the sounds of heartbeats. To me, this directly relates to the miners. I feel like listening for a heartbeat, for instance a baby still in the womb, is the first time you really hear life in a newborn, and as a parent it is the first connection you have with your child. “I first heard the whoosh-whoosh of my daughters heart as a reproduction, as an electronic transmission through a fetal heart monitor strapped to my wife’s belly-an electronic stethoscope.” Line
Evidence: "You really killed him, huh, Johnny?" "Yeah." His voice quavered slightly. "I had to. They
he still had it, so he was thinking of not doing it, but Johnny was so
One of the most important elements in Richard Wright’s The Man Who Lived Underground is Wright’s careful use of sensory descriptions, imagery, and light to depict Fred Daniels’ experiences both above and below ground. Wright’s uses these depictions of Fred Daniels underground world to create incomplete pictures of the experiences he has and of the people he encounters. These half-images fuel the idea that The Man Who Lived Underground is a dark and twisted allusion to Plato’s Allegory of the Cave.
Boom! Johnny drops to the floor. Kids are screaming. This is when Johnny is a hero for the second time in the story, The Outsiders. Johnny is a hero because he saved kids from a fire and Johnny saved Pony from dying.
Johnny Gunther goes through countless surgeries, hospital visits, and painful illness. Yet, despite his troubles, Johnny is surprisingly upbeat and optimistic. It is not that he is naive, it is simply that he does not want to show his anguish to the people around him. His fortitude shines through him and surrounds every one he meets. Gunther uses light in various ways in his memoir. When Johnny is at home, with friends, or studying the light is always present. This symbolizes him getting to be him with out a single thought of the disease, in essence his happiness. When Johnny is getting worse, or more bad news is brought forward the room always seems dark or full of shadows. Even though it is dark there always seems to be a little light. For example a crack in the door with light beaming through, the moon hitting his face, the sun lighting up a corner of the room. This symbolizes even in the worst of times Johnny finds a shred of hope. Instead of using his energy for self-pity he uses it constructively. He is a very bright young man and when school was no longer an option he was crushed but instead of letting it get him down, he wrote all his teachers and pleaded for tutors. Despite concerns for his doctors he took test, studied, and constructed lengthy science experiments. Even though Johnny knows death is inevitable it does not stop him from learning as much as he can while he can. He even takes his college entrance exam and is accepted into Harvard University. Johnny shows bravery in the worst of circumstances.
Is there really a hero in The Outsiders. A hero is someone who saved the life of one or many people by risking their own life. Johnny is one of those people. Johnny is a person who is very shy until he starts standing up for himself and does things he never thought he would do. Johnny is the hero because he didn’t just save the life of one but of multiple people,he would do anything for his buddies, and he listens and comprehends people that is a real hero.
...hey don’t. Johnny just looked dead. Like a candle with the flame gone. I tried to say something, but I couldn’t make a sound.” (p.148-149)
The Allegory of the Cave has many parallels with The Truman Show. Initially, Truman is trapped in his own “cave”; a film set or fictional island known as Seahaven. Truman’s journey or ascension into the real world and into knowledge is similar to that of Plato’s cave dweller. In this paper, I will discuss these similarities along with the very intent of both of these works whose purpose is for us to question our own reality.
...wisted the knife deeper into the monster's emotional wound, and drove him to commit the horrors he eventually did.
Victor Frankenstein, once a promising scientist, descends into madness. This happens because he goes too far and creates a monster. Victor slowly became obsessed with his creation until his goal in life was hunting the monster and destroying it. This change from ambitious to obsessed is scary because it happened to such a normal man.
... the first monster. Yet, when he had lost those who were dear to him, he had nothing to motivate him further than to destroy the monster. What had begun as a scientific discovery soon became a dangerous force that the creator could no longer control. Now the consequences of his failure would surpass trial and error, and end in an irreversible struggle between himself, guilt, fate, and death.
What's a hero? A hero isn't just a person with a super cool suit and fun powers, or a human who beats up villains and saves the world. A hero can be anybody and from the book “The Outsiders” by the author S.E. Hinton. Ponyboy, Johnny, and Dally are often described as heroes because of some things that they did in the book. Ponyboy is a hero because he saved children from the inside of a burning church, Johnny is a hero because of his want to help other people. Finally, Dally is a hero by his kind actions towards Johnny. These three Greasers are both brave and courageous.
Do you really know how bad smoking really is? Tobacco contains nicotine in it, and it is a highly addictive drug that is difficult for you to quit. Think of how much money you would have to spend instead of spending 5 to 10 dollars on cigarettes when you could be buying something way better for your self. In the whole United States 42.1 billion people smoke cigarettes. Cigarette smoking is preventable death and disease in the U.S there has been 480,000 deaths every year from smoking or even 1 out of 5 deaths.
After just two hours, our very large friend said he’d had enough for the day and was heading for the surface. We told him we’d be out in a few more minutes and to hang around so we could discuss what we’d found. As we began our ascent toward the entrance, we became acutely aware of the complete absence of light the entrance usually emanated. When our flashlights finally found the source of the unusual darkness we were horrified; the big guy was stuck in the cave’s opening again. This time Scott’s head and shoulders were outside, so instead of being able to pull him through, we would have to try to push him out of the opening. We pushed in every combination of ways possible, and needless to say it did not work this time. The paramount problem was that the cave floods from the interior out, so we would all drown if we couldn’t get Scott unstuck, and unstuck quickly.
