The story “Departure” starts talking about George and the departure, but it does not tell the reader where George will go. The author describes each detail of the scenery which causes tension and mystery. <em>“Beyond the last house on Trunion Pike in Winesburg, there is a great stretch of open fields. The fields are owned by farmers who live in town and drive homeward at evening along Trunion Pike…”</em> The story also tells the reader a little bit of George’s past that relates to the places he looks at the moment. Further, in the story the reader learns a little about of George’s adventure, he is leaving a small town to go to a big city <em>“Tom had seen a thousand George Willards go out of their towns to the city. It was a commonplace enough incident with him”. </em>

The Story “Up the Coolly” also uses the description of scenery to build mystery and tension <em>“It all swept back upon Howard in a flood of names and faces and sights and sounds; something sweet and stirring somehow, though it had little of aesthetic charms at the time”</em>. When the main character returns to places, his memory brings him back to old days <em>“Once they passed a little brook singing in a mournfully sweet way its eternal song over its pebbles. It called back to Howard the days when he and Grant, his younger brother, had fished in this little brook for trout…”</em>

Further the reader learns that the main character left his town to become an actor <em>“He had been wonderfully successful, and yet had carried into his success as a dramatic author as well as an actor” </em>and as he approaches his brother’s house memories to come back with pleasure and excitement but also with the memory of how many times he said he would visit and did not.

Can someone Write me an essay in which you explain how travel can be educational please it can really help!!
aksik [14]

Answer:

Children learn many lessons about life and relationships just by being able to understand how in different ways certain lessons are the same, and how some aspects are entirely different.

Explanation:

Children who travel more are more likely to be adventurous, tolerant, and more interested in trying out new things.  It provides an experiential learning approach where children learn in a real environment. Traveling teaches children about different traditions, customs, cultures, and languages. There is also research that indicates that students who travel achieve better performance in school, due to exposure to practical learning.

Traveling gives the outside world view to the children from where they can learn about new food, clothing, sports, people, etc.

PLEASE HELP ME!!! There a 100 point sorry!
Ber [7]

Answer:

Let us begin with the Three Little Pigs. It is written in the third person in The Three Little Pigs. In The Three Little Pigs, the Big Bad Wolf purposefully blew down the homes of the three little pigs. The Big Bad Wolf seems to be really guilty in The Three Little Pigs. In this tale, the wolf desired to devour the three little pigs. Another distinction is that the Big Bad Wolf ends up on the dinner table of the third little pig! In The Three Little Pigs, the illustrator depicts the pigs purchasing building supplies.
