    • 2 Pages

    The primary imagery in “The Snow-Storm” is how the snow interacts with everything it touches. In the beginning of the poem it begins with a light tone, explaining how the snow covers everything with light words such as “hides”, and “veils.” It creates the imagine of the snow acting almost like a blanket that lays upon everything. Near the end of the first stanza the tone changes after the word “tumultuous” is used, creating the image of a disorderly snow storm. “Fills up the farmer's lane from…

    Gabriel, Josh, Tristan and I ride bikes. Gabriel and I wrap ropes on our back tires to create traction like chains on the rear tires. Consequently, I think the ropes work well on ice and snow, you don’t slide around on the slippery ice and can move well in the snow. My cousin Gabriel and I go through mountainous snow drifts and the ropes help enormously, so we don’t spin out. Last year we wrecked a lot while riding our bikes because the ice was like glass, causing us to slip often. Now, after…

    As the snow covered sled reached the bottom of the hill, the music grew louder, louder, louder, until he was sure that it wasn't an echo. Jonas transferred the last memory of warmth to Gabriel, and once again the flakes of heat began to travel across his frozen skin. Mustering up all his strength, Jonas lifted Gabe's frail body into his cold hands and pushed himself off the frozen sled. He trudged through the snow, Gabriel in his arms, and came to the first doorstep. He collapsed on the door,…

    The Ring of Alagaard “It was a cold and rainy night in the Rockies. . . . Oh, wait! It’s always cold in the Rockies,” grumbled explorer Tyler Spinner. “Come on, don’t be so pessimistic,” replied his sister and co-worker, Alicia Spinner, “besides, we’re almost to the bottom.” They were hiking down Mt. Robson, part of the Canadian Rockies. They were up there because a geologist had discovered what was thought to be a rare stone, but it turned out to be a plain, old luminescent amethyst. “That…

    friends over and explained my idea and convinced them to help me create this park. We skied down the track first to pack the snow, next we placed the jumps and rails in certain places. We poured water all over the sides of the rails to keep them in place when they freeze. Finally we groomed the run with a rake and poured our last bits of water over the track and waited. The snow was so powery it made it difficult to pack down. I had a brilliant idea of pouring freezing water all over the track…

    10 minutes to 11am when I reached I-81. 77 follows 81 west for a few miles then turns north into West Virginia. Surprised that I-81 was in good shape, considering the weather. Proceeding cautiously, due to the obvious black ice on the roadway. I turned north following I-77 further into West Virginia. I needed gas now, before going any further. I took the Princeton West Virginia exit. At the bottom of the exit was a semblance of a highway. Didn’t look like anybody had turned left from that…

    Western Cordillera After nearly 720 km of walking, I’ve arrived at one of the highest points in the Western Cordillera. My legs and back are sore from climbing the steep and twisting mountains, while my entire body is frozen from the ice and snow. But the sight I see now is definitely worth it. Everywhere, all of it, is beautiful. The mountains I see are the very jewels of nature, hardly affected by the booming forces of erosion. These are colossal proofs of the Western’s Cordillera’s status as…

    order for you to understand the story, we need to start from the beginning. It was a sunny day in Park City, Utah. Fresh snow fell the morning before and it was a perfect day to go snowboarding with my older Brother, Ethan. We decided to go on the lift called “Ninety-Nine 90.” Halfway through the lift, the sun suddenly disappeared and the higher we got the colder it got. Flakes of snow began to fall, faster and faster…

    a hypocrite. However, there’s a slow but gradual change in weather from snow and ice that represents Holden’s fixation with the phoniness of society, to his acceptance of reality’s lost innocence when it finally rains. Throughout the majority of the story, Holden wants to avoid being affected by the imperfections of society as he strives to protect those who are falling from innocence. Salinger uses the development of snow to demonstrate that particular mindset. When Holden wants to throw the…
