"If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say this or that even, it never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death" (Orwell 126)

Explanation:

I found this quote in my packet that my teacher had made for us a couple years ago. I hope it helps! Her quote may be on a different page though, the book pages vary.

This quote is personification because it gives the Party human characteristics ("thrusting its hand" is the characteristic.)

andre [41]
Huck seems like the type of character, based just from this snippet, to overexaggerate things, even something small. He also seems to be on the glass half empty side of life. Perhaps cocky and a bit overzealous, too, judging by the "I bet I do" phrase. Does that help?

galina1969 [7]

The excerpts from "The Storyteller" which indicate that the aunt is unaware of her flaws begin with "It's a very difficult thing..." and "A most improper..."

<h3>What happens in "The Storyteller"?</h3>

In "The Storyteller," by Saki:

  • An aunt and her nieces and nephew travel by train.
  • A bachelor is in the same carriage as they are.
  • The aunt tries to keep the children quiet.
  • She tells them a story with a moral lesson at the end.
  • The bachelor tells them another story, which contradicts the moral lesson.
  • The aunt is furious at the bachelor.

The aunt in "The Storyteller" is unaware of her flaws. She does not understand that, to keep the children quiet, she must find ways to entertain them. That is precisely what the bachelor does.

The aunt complains that it is difficult to tell children stories. However, she also criticizes the bachelor's story, saying it is improper. She does not admit that the bachelor told a better story than she did.
