Light and dark imagery pervade this story. At the beginning, we learn that the narrator's street has "dark muddy lanes" and "dark dripping gardens." His own street is "blind," as if it were also in the dark, even though “blind” also means that the street is a dead-end. These elements of darkness suggest the narrator's lack of awareness, as well as the blindness that exists in his own community.

Light is associated with Mangan's sister, the narrator's love interest, whom he knows mostly through observing her from his house and whose beauty intrigues him. He sees her figure by way of "the light from the half-opened door." The bazaar is also associated with light when the narrator is looking forward to it. Later, though, because he arrives at the bazaar late, he finds the hall with closed stalls and "in darkness."

Joyce uses light and dark to develop the theme of harboring false hopes and having them exposed. The narrator builds the expectation that Mangan’s sister and the trip to the bazaar will lift him from his drab existence. When he arrives at the bazaar, his dreams are shattered by the shabbiness of the place. The darkening hall symbolizes the narrator’s realization that his dream was an illusion.

SashulF [63]
Well.... Tybalt is Juliet's cousin. Although he is mischievous and a bit of a rogue, he is still well-loved by Juliet and the rest of her family (the entire Caulet clan).
Romeo is now a murderer (forcing him into a rapid departure), and a murderer of a member of Juliet's family to boot! If things weren't already against him in blood alone, this act would certainly sour any advancements he could have possibly made in asking Juliet's father for her had in marriage.

Read the passage. Then answer the question.
kherson [118]

The fact that the job market was in bad shape when the narrator graduated from college sets him/her to be more open to accept any kind of job, as long as he/she gets to write every day. His/her lack of success in the prior months makes him/her more attentive, in search of any opportunity when it shows up. He/she is determined to find a job as soon as possible, as can be appreciated from the fact that he/she has read job search materials. So he/she gave it a shot.

Although he/she wasn’t planning on being a reporter, he/she was set to make a good job despite the lack of experience and knowledge. He/she went out there, used the basic knowledge he/she knew about reporting (to make a good article, answer these questions: Who? What? Where? When? Why? and How?), got a “crash course in interviewing” and a list of sources for his/her future stories. So, if the job market hadn’t have been in bad shape when he/she graduated, he/she wouldn’t have het such a challenging and rewarding first job.
