    The images and words used in this logo enable consumers to understand the meaning; although, improvements can be made to ensure the message is conveyed effectively.

    The figurative language interspersed within the passage is also highly effective, causing an air of mystery, wonder, and respect. It helps to illustrate the man's feelings towards the wolf as well, without directly stating them. Cormac McCarthy tells of how "The eye turned toward the fire gave back no light", this quote helps compound the mystery of the wolf, having it seemingly consume the firelight with its eyes; maintaining dominance over its surroundings even in death. The man's respect for the wolf is apparent through the figurative language as he personifies her, believing the world to be ordained by God for her; The same God she is "among which she was among and not separate from". A great sense of wonder and mystery is conveyed through…

    Metaphor: “They’d cry, arms out stretched, dancing in the aisles, slithering around with the agility of the Pink Panther.” (Page 49) During this scene, James puts a metaphor into play to describe the odd sightings he is witnessing while in church when he notices that the people of the church “get happy”, which can be defined as losing their control and thanking God. While doing so, James compares the way that the people’s movements are so effortless and graceful to that of a Pink Panther. By comparing such sightings to one another, McBride provides the audience with something familiar that they can relate to based on the situation. This creates a more vivid imagery of what James has gone through in real life and can help us relate to and…

    Whether the main characters are survivors, or “the walking dead in a horror film” (Cormac McCarthy 55), they are “carrying the fire” (McCarthy 129) within themselves on a journey in hope to recover the civilization that had vanished in the world of depravity. McCarthy’s The Road follows the journey of a father and young boy who travel the path of a road that leads to nowhere, searching to find a way to renew the faith in humanity after an unexplained apocalypse. The setting of the apocalypse was caused by the destruction of humans and their own selfish desires for power. The setting and climate both reflect the situation of human species along with their loss of faith. This is expressed by examining the setting and climate of the novel.…

So, how does someone determine what is healthy or not because everyone in this world has a different body type. However, two authors have set out to write on such a topic. Michael Pollan, a nutritionist (Bullock 850), writes “Escape from the Western Diet” which is about Americans should completely cut out the Western diet because it consists of mostly processed food that is unhealthy for the body (Pollan 851). On the other hand, Mary Maxfield’s, a graduate student (Bullock 872), writes “Food as Thought: Resisting the Moralization of Eating” which is about how people should not moralize food because it is their body and they should be…
