Rob Hall

about the scenery and events he is experiencing. While in Missoula, there is some variance in sentence structure, but the majority is straight and to the point mirroring his reporter-like attitude toward this subject. This style and attitude is rightfully so since most of the events discussed would better not be explained in extensive detail. He keeps an air of professionality in this book; he does not hide anything in flamboyant language. This same feeling of straightforwardness is also seen in Into Thin Air. In extremely emotional parts of the book, Krakauer does not try to dramatize this situation but instead is very direct with what happened. This use of concrete diction is seen when he writes “attempts to make radio contact with Hall… went unanswered [and they found him] buried beneath a drift of snow” (Krakauer 247). This emotionless account of Hall’s death shows Krakauer’s attempt to distance himself from the situation and it mimics his detached style in Missoula. In both, cort sentences are used to express extremely heart-rending events- accounts of rape cases and deaths on the mountain. In these two variations of Jon Krakauer’s style, he effectively and engagingly tells a story that was begging to be told. He not only reports stories that need to be brought to light, but he urges the reader to take action against the events he recounts. And although Krakauer’s style morphs when facing a dissimilar topic, his ability to narrate a complex topic is not…

alive. The colder it got the worse it got for the worse it got for the people on top of the mountain on that night. The weather on the Mount Everest started off well. Within the space of five minutes, it changed from really a good day with a little bit of winde to desperate conditions. It was horrible, with winds up to 80 miles an hour and was 30 below zero. The storm went on for 48 hours. One of the reasons why it gets so cold up on top of the mountain is because there is no protection on…

orphanage: Wendy McGuire, 8, Jeremy Nichols, 11, and Samuel Allard, 8.” I drop the newspaper. I don’t fuck with haunted orphanages. That might be the last thing I fuck with. I run out of the office but forget which way to go. My instinct tells me left so I take it. And then another left. I find my way to the spelling room, but something catches my eye. I look at the chalkboard that displayed roughly seven words last time I checked. The only word on the board now is “help”. I turn to sprint down…

The hallway is lit by a single light attached to the middle of the popcorn ceiling. There used to be two lights but one bulb flickered and died leaving the hallway dim. The popcorn ceiling is picked off and gone in some spots, mostly around the light and close to the walls. There are also a few tan stains that are darker around the edges and lighter almost white as they go in. The stains might be water stains from who ever lived in the house before. The flooring in the hallway is a worn dark…

“Basically, why are you here? I think.” I asked a final time, and Hugh took a closer look inside the cell at the man, his face rested against the bars. Hugh showed no fear. The man leapt up and took the notepad from the rock. He scurried to the puddle, fiddling for the pencil which lay submerged in the filthy water. I urged him to talk to me. “Ne!” he harked back at me, as best he could. His mood had changed. He pulled his hand away from the puddle clutching the pencil, and he scribbled…

Student Characteristics, Issues, and Factors Most students at Highland and Lacey are very responsible. They know the expectations and act appropriately. While most would think…

quiet that comes with the snowfall when every living animal is hiding at home where it’s warm. The Dungeon looked like hell but felt like Heaven. This was one ritual that she didn’t understand the point of. There were many in her community, all of which had practical purposes. This one was one of the more ridiculous ones, sending children to this hallway and then not letting them out until they passed the criteria and were allowed back home. They had to wander these halls until the elders or…
