.... he first joined the Klan, it was because he needed a group to fit into that related to his problems, and he needed to direct his anger and hostility toward someone- that someone happened to be blacks. The reading doesn't really concentrate on all of the things he did as a Klan member, except to say that he did particularly “hate� one of the black people in town more than most-Ann Atwater. He claimed to hate her specifically because every time he went into town, she was leading some kind of demonstration. I didn't think she would really be all that important to the rest of the story, but in my eyes she's the most important. To ma .....

.... and interacted with one another. That was until chapter seven of the novel. Nick Carraway and Jay Gatsby have been invited to tea at Tom and Daisy Buchanan’s home.

It was very hot and all present were obviously uncomfortable. Suddenly Daisy asked, “Who wants to go to town?�(125). They eventually agree and all go to town. They end up getting a hotel room in downtown New York City which was just as hot if not hotter than where they had already been. Daisy and Ga .....

.... a tale of a world parallel to our own, Bradbury warns us of a future we are on a path to – a future of mind manipulation, misused technology, ignorance, and hatred. He challenges the reader to remain open-minded by promoting individualism, the appreciation of literature, the defiance of censorship and conformity, and most importantly, change. Bradbury’s inspiration to convey the themes involved in the novel resulted mainly from the social situation of the time. First of all, the novel was written shortly after World War II and increasing numbers of authors began writing about serious topics. Also, the invention of the atom bomb .....

.... excellent caliber of knowledge, which automatically signifies that Montresor is very jealous of him. Poe’s lack of description on Montresor’s part shows that there is an insecurity about the character and that he feels as though there is nothing note worthy or significant about him. This extreme amount of resentment and insecurity only highlights all the vengefulness that is built up inside of Montresor and gives the prediction of a conflict between the two. The setting of the event as it unfolds begins at a jovial party with costumes and such. Poe establishes a rather happy and cheerful mood to surround the situation at hand in order .....

On the other hand, all three of these books do a good job in explaining the changes that took place in the course of the first three years after Gorbachev came to power and why were these changes necessary.

This was the case with Scout and Jem when they picked up on the stereotypes going around the neighborhood about Boo. “When I got there, my breeches were all folded and sewn up�(pg 63) When Boo sewed Jem's breeches together, this was a sign from Boo to let the children realize what a kind and pleasant man he really was. Also, Boo was considerate enough to save Jem from a couple of whippings, because after all, if Atticus were to see the torn pants he would have known Jem was the culprit in the Radley's yard. “You were so busy looking at the fire, you didn't notice Boo behind you�(pg 76) This was also a s .....

.... were never even invited. This disregard for propriety illustrates the crassness and thoughtlessness that seemed to run rampant among the rich and famous during the twenties. An example of carelessness is when a large group of people at one of the huge soirees, decides to continue the party in the massive, expensive fountain in Gatsby’s lawn. They just jump right in and begin to dance without concern for their health, much less concern for the well being of the fountain. After the galas had died down, most of the participants went home, leaving a monstrous mess and sometimes even their clothes or shoes. Although Gatsby himself di .....
