Answer:
Well for me personally I'd write an essay about when I learned to Ice Skate. It mentions to put it in chronological order, so I'd being with how I was watching figure skating and thinking to myself how easy it looks. It says to include the theme of balance, so I'd most likely mention how difficult it is to skate with your center on two small blades, and the importance of a knee bend. I'd likely add conversations that happened between my mother and I while she helped me to balance myself, and my internal realization that the faster and more comfortable you get, the easier it is.. similar to riding a bike. I'd conclude with how I am still learning how to control my center of balance, and start trying to attempt things like skating on one leg, simple spins, and skating backwards.
I hope I didn't confuse you, and I hope this example helps you with your own essay!
Please let me know if it was helpful :D
I would say that "constant cry" and "Chesterton's cat" are the obvious ones. However "echoed in our ears" is a pretty subtle one that you can definitely make a solid argument for.
1. Beatrice says that the purpose of the simplicity in her town's design is to help them forget themselves. The Abnegation have dull hairstyles and wear dull clothes, and they only eat dull food. They try to keep everything dull because they believe that forgetting yourself makes it easier to be selfless, as vanity causes selfishness.
2. When Beatrice is talking to Caleb, she hears the whistle of a dauntless train in the distance,and says that "it sounds like the Dauntless, calling me to them." She realizes that she wants to be free, and that she doesn't want to give up the part of herself that makes her Beatrice Prior. From this you can infer that she will most likely transfer to Dauntless at the choosing ceremony.
