Analyze the final quote of the novel: “Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before
Solnce55 [7]

This quote focuses on the idea that sometimes, no matter how hard people try, <em>they cannot achieve their goals or deepest desires.</em> They reach out further and further for one thing or someone and <em>never </em>get to it. Some never lose hope and "stretch out their arms farther", but that doesn't mean they'll get there. They have more optimism. These final words are just about Gatsby's struggle to achieve the American dream and his dream girl and the unfortunate events that follow his endeavors.

If you use my analysis, don't copy word for word ! :)

Romeo and juliet scenes 4-6 mastery test
Grace [21]

The order of events creates tension or surprise in the passage by waiting until King Richard is ready for battle to learn of Lord Stanley's betrayal.

King Richard is (ordinarily) a true story. Of path, there are a few adorns here or there, however for the most element, the narrative is correct. Getting overwhelmed in the front of his kids w

The King Richard power-by means of capturing scene is a cinematic surprise, recalling Butch Cassidy and the Sundance child in its combo of pain, chaos, and grim absurdity. The film dramatizes an actual, terrible, pivotal night within the life of Richard Williams — and receives the vital stakes of it precisely right.

Venus Williams speaks to ABC's Zohreen Shah about "King Richard," the biopic that tells the tale of her existence developing up. The title of the film alludes to the dad Richard Williams, who famously had his youngest daughters' fate as tennis greats mapped out before they were even born.

At the beginning of the essay, swift explains the anticipated results before revealing the actual proposal. explain the rhetoric
denis23 [38]
By explaining the great results of his proposal, he is preparing the reader to agree with him.

By writing that his proposal will end hunger and poverty, the reader is eager to hear his plan and is predisposed to agree with him. When the reader learns of his actual plan, however, the reader is moved to shock.

The overall effect is that other plans to end poverty and hunger -- which Swift dismisses as ineffective -- now appear more reasonable.
