Furthermore, in Rebecca, Mr. De Winter’s mansion sets a sort of lonely atmosphere. It is surrounded with woods with not much to do but hunt. Even Giles, Mr. De Winter’s brother in law comments on the lack of things to do, “There is nothing else to do around here” (Rebecca). Also, living out in the woods includes many dangers.

The estate in this movie is not in ruin for the majority of the movie but it is still threatening. A forest is full of shadows and darkness and one cannot see very far into it. Forests can hide many dangers that could harm the characters living in the mansion. Therefore, the mansion as a whole sets the potentially dangerous atmosphere because the two are living in an isolated area surrounded by a dangerous forest. Moreover, in the movie Rebecca, the scene where the new Mrs. De Winter retrieved Jasper had multiple aspects in the setting that set the atmosphere. When Jasper runs off from Mr. and Mrs. De Winter he runs to a boat house. The boat house itself is setting a dangerous atmosphere. Although the movie is in black and white it is clear that the boat house is made up of some dark colours. Light colours are very cheery but dark colours suggest a lot of negativity. Also it is made with very…

Mullis 1 Tabatha Mullis Mrs. Lee 9th Grade English (4th) 17 May 2018 One Direction Here to Stay Bon Jovi, Metallica, Michael Jackson, and AC/DC: These are all famous musicians that have withstood the test of time. A boy band would not usually be included in such a notable group of musicians like this unless it is NSYNC or the Backstreet Boys. Even so, One Direction is a group that will stand the test of time because they have many fans, they are original, and they have won many awards. In…

wide variation in lower and upper registers for each member is what makes One Direction so successful. Simon Cowell was able to find five voices that each complimented each other uniquely to create complex harmonies that most bands can’t achieve. Because of this, the band has received 281 award nominations in its 5 years, and has won 169 of them. In comparison, 5 Seconds of Summer is a pop-punk band meaning not only does each member play an instrument, there is also a designated lead singer.…

repay your mother” (line 39). The perspective of a young female child is given in “A Song in the Front Yard” by Gwendolyn Brooks. The reader is able to visualize a sheltered child that is restrained to the calm, gentle front yard through the use of imagery and metaphors. The speaker pulls the reader in and gives the exaggeration that she’s been trapped in the front yard her entire young life: “I’ve stayed in the front yard all my life” (line 1). It is understood by the reader that child has…

My phage has the wonderful name of Lorge. This name is very special because it offers information about the phage right away. I also chose this name because the first word that Tracy said when she saw my phage was, “Wow, it’s huge!” To get this wonderful phage I collected the soil sample from the flower pots across the street outside of Bessey Hall. I got the sample at the start of class on September 11, 2017. It was a clear day that was 60 degrees, with a depth of about 4cm below the surface of…
