Is The Narrator's Picking The Bass Or Sheila?

Decent Essays
Show More
I wonder if the narrator will pick the Bass or Sheila? I think that he will pick the bass because he loves Sheila but he loves fishing more. The bass was really big because he pulled the canoe against the current. The boy loves to fish, he can even tell what kind of fish it is when it is coming out of the water. Another possibility is that he will pick Sheila. He really loves Sheila, he tries to impress her by doing laps around the pool he also watches her every move and knows her style and way she sits. He also is taking her in a canoe down to a party. In conclusion I think that he will pick the bass because it means more to him.

The Boy is plagued by Sheila.…

    What I Lived For Analysis

    Dante Alighieri once said, “There is no greater sorrow than to recall a happy time when miserable.” Though not directly mentioned, the idea of the quote seems to be explored thoroughly in both “Where I Lived, and What I Lived For,” by Henry David Thoreau, and “Once More to the Lake,” by E.B. White. While both of these authors float around several thoughts including reality, advancements, and living in general, they take very different approaches to do so. In “Once More to the Lake,” White reminisces on his journey back to a place he spent many summers as a child. His essay takes the form of a narrative, with him explaining in great detail the beauty and isolation of the lake.…

    Theme Of Imagery And Diction In The Fish By Elizabeth Bishop

    This idea is supported by the frequented use of self-address implemented in the second half. The speaker becomes more involved. “I thought,” “I looked,” “I admired,” all produce a more active role on the part of the speaker. The turning point in the poem that triggers this alteration seems to be when the reader realizes that the fish is in fact still alive. “While his gills were breathing” (line 22) is the first action given to the fish and the first time he is addressed as a living thing.…

    What Point Does Twain Refer To Between His Two Ways Of Seeing The River Analysis

    What points of contrast does Twain refer to between his two ways of seeing the river? Twain first refers to the river as something absolutely beautiful. Twain admires the river and appreciates all of the small details, as he describes the “broad expanse of the river; in the middle distance the red hue brightened into gold, sparkling upon the water” (1). After Twain sees the river everyday and gets used to it, he begins to not appreciate the beauty as much, as he says, “the romance and beauty were all gone from the river” (3).…

    Elizabeth Wardle Guitar Playing

    Elizabeth Wardle states “If we understand writing as one tool among many through which knowledge, identity, and authority are continually negotiated, then we must view learning to write in new ways as a complex and often messy network of tool-mediated human relationships best explored in terms of the social and cultural practices that people bring to their shared uses of tools” (Wardle 290). Writing is a key resource in the fundamentals of guitar playing, and therefore must be implemented to grasp the full understanding as a literate activity. There is a vast array of levels of experience between guitarists. Each guitarist coming from a different background brings their own take to the melting pot of guitar playing. Through the use of an interview and poll, people with different levels of expertise were allowed to express exactly how they used writing to aid their guitar playing.…

    The Poor Singing Dame By Mary Robine Analysis

    The Romantic Period lasted from 1785-1832. During this time, the Democratic Revolution in France launched, which was the French Revolution. This revolution caused and shaped the Romantic period to be political, social, and economic with all three drastic changes. During the Romantic Period, many authors wrote poems, with a lot of emotion of love, passion and strong messages that we can now relate with in this livelihood. The two works I selected to work with caught my attention because both poems showed a lot of suspense and were similar in various ways.…
