an end result. Mario is a simple game with a simple puzzle by just pressing A to jump. For example, the author says in the game it’s important to know, “when it is advantageous to jump and how often jumping is necessary”. This is true because when I was a child, I used to think that pressing one button in Mario is too easy but due to ne constantly falling in gaps it was important to know when or how far I needed to jump.…

Linda Pastan's "Jump Cabling" is a love story like many. "Jump Cabling" however, is a short poem about jump starting a car as a metaphor for an intimate love story between the two strangers. Pastan's poem uses a peculiar but important structure and form along with alliteration, metaphor, symbol, and allusion to bring the mundane affairs of romance to life. The poem itself is a metaphor for an intimate encounter the speaker has with a stranger. The author uses the woman's car breaking down…

older students, only the 16-year-old boys remain careless and happy in this peaceful world. For the masters of Devon — and Gene, too — Finny comes to represent the "essence of this careless peace." While Finny likes to defy authority, play games, and jump out of trees — all of these essentially childish activities — Gene, by contrast, wants to become an adult and feels that he should learn how to live in the grown-up world. His basic nature points him in the direction of conventionality and…

The first scene I want to analyse is at 19 minutes. There is a sequence where the main character (Munez) has to work to get money to travel to England. The sequence of jump cuts going from one job to the other is a perfect use of speeding up the process while also using settings as a way to portray the character. Firstly, a jump cut is used to stop the continuous flow of the film. Therefore, essentially the film is switching to a different time and it is not a continuous sequence. This creates…

In one of the greatest Olympic performances of all time, Owens won gold in four events; the 100 meter dash, 200 meter dash, 4 x 100 meter relay, and long jump. This defining moment in history shattered the Nazi idea of “Aryan superiority.” Enraged by this, Adolf Hitler refused to hand out the medals. Baker does a great job making it a point that amidst the rising tension in the Berlin Olympics, Jesse Owens…

library one day, I turned to a page titled “Advanced Jumps”. I was about twelve, and I was not nearly ready for most of the jumps on that page, especially the second hardest one, a lutz jump.
