Answer:  One good example from this paragraph is in the second sentence: "It's [the house] small and red with tight steps in front and windows so small you'd think they were holding their breath." Here the windows are personified (given human qualities). after all, windows don't really need to breathe.

Reading vs. Watching
zavuch27 [327]

What sets apart the short film from the story is the director's choice of details. The setting seemed to be made as normal as possible, a simple small town in America. He added foreshadowing by doing a close up of Tess Hutchinson's nervous, smiling face and the closeup of rocks in the boy's pocket. He had the benefit of using pauses to increase suspense, and the actress was free to express Tess's outrage at the lottery.  The overall visual of the movie is more detailed because we see the expressions of seriousness and unease in each face.

There are plenty of similarities between the story and video as well. They are both heavily suspenseful, the atmosphere appears to be dark, like something doesn't feel right. The moment were the boys are gathering rocks, in both works it was a sign they were up to no good, but the audience was not aware why until the story progressed. Both were true to the simplistic lifestyle of the townspeople, and how casually they carried out this morbid tradition for agricultural purposes.  

In conclusion, they both successful covered the themes of the story regarding  mob psychology, following traditions blindly, scapegoating, and the reliance chance-based games.

Misha Larkins [42]

Full question attached

Answer and Explanation:

1. Why do we do this? Filters and other image editing tools are mostly used to make pictures appear more beautiful and shiny to anyone viewing it. Exampls are images uploaded on social media that are edited and look different from the original which may have been considered less beautiful. Other uses could be to make the picture clearer for investigative or other documentation purposes

2. People who can't upload pictures of themselves to social media without editing them begin to develop low self esteem and depression as they are not proud of what they look like. Also image editing, use of photoshop image editing app for instance, is often deceptive and can be used to defraud people.

3. Don't allow social media replace your reality. Try to reduce use of social media and even if you have to use it excessively, make sure it reflects your offline life, your true reality. Avoid editing pictures you upload unless you just wish to make it clearer.
