Read the excerpt below and answer the question. I'm really getting quite fond of the big room, all but that horrid paper. Out of
one window I can see the garden, those mysterious deepshaded arbors, the riotous old-fashioned flowers, and bushes and gnarly trees. Out of another I get a lovely view of the bay and a little private wharf belonging to the estate. There is a beautiful shaded lane that runs down there from the house. I always fancy I see people walking in these numerous paths and arbors, but John has cautioned me not to give way to fancy in the least. He says that with my imaginative power and habit of story-making, a nervous weakness like mine is sure to lead to all manner of excited fancies, and that I ought to use my will and good sense to check the tendency. So I try. In at least one hundred words, describe the main symbols used in this excerpt.
The main symbols used in this excerpt are imagery, realism, and characterization. This excerpt depicts these qualities by eliciting the specific characteristics of the setting and the individuals. While describing the surrounding environment, the reader is able to create the image of the setting hence the reasoning of the imagery that is incorporated. It sounds as if the character John is a controlling person and that the narrator is being restrained from exhibiting certain personality traits that they possess. The realism that is being displayed in this excerpt is correlated to the era in which this was written, and depicts the ways the characters interact.
