Read this stanza from "The Raven." Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, "Sir," said I, "or Madam, truly y

our forgiveness I implore; But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping, And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door, That I scarce was sure I heard you"–here I opened wide the door– Darkness there and nothing more. How does Edgar Allan Poe create suspense in this stanza? The darkness in the hallway foreshadows the dark bird’s entrance in the room. The pacing is slowed down as the action of opening the door is delayed. The source of the noise is not yet revealed, as no one is standing at the door. The speaker believes that he has a visitor to his room, which turns out to be true.

Rewrite the short story so it is more dramatic and descriptive.
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

All students at Elmwood Elementary School were relatively normal. Apart from one that is— A sixth grader by the name of Jackson Bean would constantly find himself in trouble. He'd act out during class and was a terrorizer to other students ever since Kindergarten. This made teachers and students alike wonder about his life at home, but none could extract such information from him. The first day of a new school year, all was normal, Jackson had been threatening an innocent classmate when he had noticed there was someone new. She was a nice person, polite and respectful to everyone she spoke to. Jackson had never seen someone who looked like her— he thought she was beautiful. When she introduced herself to him, ignoring what the others said about him, the boy couldn't find it in himself to call her names or slap her. Jackson instead made an offer to show her around, to which she accepted happily. An act in an effort to change, the other students and teacher knew not, but one thing was for certain: They were relieved the nice girl wouldn't have to go through what they had with him and maybe, <em>just maybe</em>, she could help him.

not sure if this is longer and descriptive enough, but i hope it works for you!

IN THE BOOK, BRIAN'S WINTER - Why does shooting the new bow prove challenging for Brian? What does he do in order to make himsel
zzz [600]

Answer:

On "First Arrow Day" he had successfully constructed a straight-shooting arrow, and on "First Rabbit Day" he had killed his first rabbit, using similar methods as he had used to kill the fool bird. He who knows that power is inborn, that he is weak because he has looked for good out of him and elsewhere, and so perceiving, throws himself unhesitatingly on his thought, instantly rights himself, stands in the erect position, commands his limbs, works miracles; just as a man who stands on his feet is stronger than a man who stands on his head. It tells us that Brian is a very opinionated and curious character, that loves doing new things but the right way.
