Often called Anglo-Saxon literature, the poetry was written in the old English language. Notable poems from this period include "Beowulf" and "The Wanderer." The characteristics of alliteration and use of meter make Old English poetry distinct in sound from other forms of poetry.

Topic Sentence for Chapter 4 of War if the Worlds
zloy xaker [14]
The Cylinder Opens<span>The narrator returns to Horsell Common to discover an even larger crowd, all pushing to be able to see the cylinder. All, that is, except for one poor guy who fell into the crater and is trying to push his way back out. (Which is always the way – the grass is always greener on the other side of the crater.)Then the cylinder opens, and out comes something that no one expects. The narrator admits that he expected something sort of like a man to emerge, but instead what comes out is snake-like tentacles and a body about the size of a bear and skin that glistens like "wet leather" (1.4.12, 1.4.14). (You can only imagine our facial contortions right now.)Everyone runs away from the Martian just because it looks horrible, what with its saliva-dripping, lipless mouth and big, luminous eyes. Oh, and tentacles. Can't forget the tentacles.Since all of the people have for cover (they've found places to hide and watch), the area by the crater is now a human-free zone, with just some horses and carts.Oh, and remember the man who fell in the crater before? He's still down there. Dun dun dun!</span><span> </span>

High blood pressure, or Hypertension, is very common especially in adults. It has no symptoms unless blood levels are life-threatningly high. Symptoms include headaches and nosebleeds, though these are very rare. Getting your blood pressure checked regularly is a good way of preventing and controlling this illness but, there are better ways of doing this such as eating home cooked meals instead of McDonalds' every day. Home economics classes would teach us that and more. We would learn how to make sure our houses stay clean and how to buy a house with a mortgage, if we could afford it. A home economics class would make sure every high school student left with a sense of confidence knowing what is necessary to survive in a modern day economy, something that most high school graduates don't feel when they leave. There you go. One paragraph down, about three to go!

Song for the Deer and Myself to Return On Joy Harjo
yarga [219]
<span>A) Harjo writes that "This morning when I looked out the roof window . . . I was overwhelmed" (1-4). 

It is unnecessary to  include ellipses at the start and end of a quote that you have taken from a larger sentence. The ellispes in this example accurately represent the chunk of information that was deleted from the sentence in order to improve clarity.</span>
