I think it’s very important because having rich vocabulary can help you or your child communicate with others and express their ideas. An educated vocabulary will help you get access to jobs etc another reason is having a wide vocabulary helps you understand the events happening in the world and become more informed of what is happening around you.

the message of the book is to say humanity will be the cause of why we will loose humanity. More specifically, they will be lost by pushing the boundaries a little too far.

reason 1) they have moved to Mars via rocket in order to avoid the anticipated destruction from the war that is being waged on Earth. Cora reminds Harry of just that when he wants to return to Earth immediately after stepping off of the rocket when she says, "One day the atom bo.mb will fix Earth. Then we'll be safe here." While they were all skeptically optimistic about their new life on Mars, they took comfort in the fact that they could buy a return rocket ticket home at any time.

reason 2) Another reason why they moved was cause in the story we see how one day Laura runs home to tell them that an atom bo.mb hit New York and all of the space rockets were blown up; and due to this they must accept the fact that they are stranded on Mars forever. Devastated, Harry decides to rededicate himself to his plot of land.

As he was working in his garden, he begins to notice that things are the "same, but different," such as the pea.ch blossoms, carrots, radishes, and other produce planted in his garden (4.) Harry begins to panic that Mars is changing him and his belongings, and he runs into town to discuss it with the other settlers

reason 3) We also find that Harry begins to notice subconscious changes in himself. For instance, one night he finds himself muttering the strange word "Ior.rt." He calls his friend to ask if he's ever heard of the word, and the friend responds that it is the old Martian word for Earth. A few days later, Cora approached Harry and informed him that all of the food from the Deepfreeze was gone.

They only had the food that was grown from the Martian soil. She urges him to slow down, rest, and join the family for a swim in the canals. He joins them and reflects on the changes he's been seeing in the people around him, and at the end of the day his son, Dan, asks to change his name to Linnl. Quickly and easily, Harry and Cora agree.

Compare and contrast the literary techniques of allegory and ambiguity by offering a scenario to explain an instance where each

omeli [17]

Allegory is a literary technique in which a message or an idea is conveyed through a metaphor. An allegory usually tells a story that is a metaphor for real-world issues or complex ideas. Allegories have been used throughout the history of art because they can make complex concepts comprehensible. These hidden or complex meanings are symbolized by events, actions, figures or images.

George Orwell's work "Animal farm" can be considered an example of Allegory. The work tells the story of animals in a farm that, trying to create a utopic society for themselves, are engaged in corruption and betrail conflicts that symbolize real political conflicts in the Communist Revolution of Russia. Orwell creates characters who are apparently just animals on a farm, to symbolize and represent his critics and points of view regarding the revolution. The animals represent human weaknesses and, their actions, human corruption.

Ambiguity is another literary technique, very different from an allegory. Works written using ambiguity are based on inexactness, they are open to more than one interpretation. Instead of representing a specific story or message, or trying to convey a specific idea, ambiguity creates a puzzle that can never be solved. It generates reflection and it leaves a doubt in the air. The ambiguity is usually expressed through a statement, and sometimes even carried by just a word, instead of being held by an entire story with situations and figures. A statement or word that ties the knot to create a puzzle or vagueness is enough to evoke an ambiguity. Although, it can be a tool to build a character or to base a story on.

An example of ambiguity can be found in the first line of the poem Ode to a Grecian Urn, by John Keats. The poem says “Thou still unravish’d bride of quietness…”. Here, the word "still" can be understood as something that doesn't move, therefore is still, or something that hasn't been changed yet. The ambiguity can't be solved, so it creates a meaning that is open and that can be changed.
