Answer:

You’re in your late 20’s or early 30’s.  Now imagine the life you have with your partner summarized in tiny bursts of sentences from today to a point 30 or 40 years in the future.  Got it?  Can’t picture it?  Well, if you can’t visualize that concept, don’t worry; instead, read “Here We Aren’t, So Quickly” by Jonathan Safran Foer.

The starts out in the first person for the first paragraph and then moves to the second person in the second paragraph.  The you in the story being the narrator’s girlfriend/wife.  After these first paragraphs the story then alternates voices or perspective every few sentences.  At times, this switching becomes fatiguing, but in a story that is two pages long, it works.  We watch as these people age, grow closer, and change.  Throughout the process, their fears, anxieties and idiosyncrasies are laid out for the reader to peruse, like a yard sale of emotion.  

What I like about this story is that it tries to do something new.  Whether or not it’s successful is up to the reader.  One thing I think about is does the story stay with me?  “Here We Aren’t, So Quickly” may not fit into a neat category, but it stays with the reader long after closing the pages.  For that reason, it’s a success.

Answer:

The structure of the story was narrated in the first person, and this narrator through short data begins to form a thread that leads to the relationship and characterization of both characters. Through the likes, dislikes and thoughts the narrator has, it spends the time for a couple that changes more and more, and it shows. The Poetic style estimates a collapse for the end, guided by the feelings described.

Answer: Civic engagement is seen by many as an activity that serves not only as a key component

to the maintenance of a democracy, but also as a force that sustains social ties across

communities small and large (Colby et al., 2000; Putnam, 1993; 2000). As defined by Thomas

Ehrlich, civic engagement can be understood as “…working to make a difference in the civic life

of our communities and developing the combination of knowledge, skills, values and motivation

to make that difference…[and] promoting the quality of life in a community, through both

Read the excerpt from the Declaration of Independence.
Anna007 [38]
Based on the given excerpt from the Declaration of Independence above, we can clearly describe that Jefferson uses words with neutral connotations in order to present a claim based on reason and precedent. This is neutral because there is no form of encouragement or some sort to initiate a form of activism. He clearly just states this claim based on his reasoning.

Hope my answer has helped you.
