Answer:
The above excerpt is a good example of the many storytelling devices used in 1001 Nights except surprise ending.
Explanation:
<u>The excerpt we are analyzing here does have elements of repetition, dialogue and recurring theme. However, it is not a good example of surprise ending, and the reason for that is very simple. </u>Take a look at how the excerpt ends:
<em>The porter was so dazzled he could hardly believe that he heard her aright, but he shouldered his basket in hot haste, saying in himself, "O day of good luck! O day of Allah's grace!" and walked after her till she stopped at the door of a house.</em>
<u>This is not a proper ending. As a matter of fact, this is the beginning of the story. Readers are left expecting, wondering what happens to the porter and the mysterious woman once they reach that door.</u> It might very well be that the story does have an interesting ending, but we are analyzing the excerpt only. And the excerpt does not have an ending whatsoever.
Because “it’s such an amazing experience” and there’s so much to do nowadays that it would be awesome “to just be in space”.
Answer:
In 1831, Charles Darwin received an invitation to join the HMS Beagle as the ship's naturalist for a trip around the world. For most of the next five years, the Beagle surveyed the coast of South America, leaving Darwin free to explore the continent and islands, including the Galápagos. He filled dozens of notebooks with careful observations on animals, plants and geology, and collected thousands of specimens, which he crated and sent home for further study. When 22-year-old Darwin set sail, he was a young university graduate, still planning a career as a clergyman. By the time he returned however, he was an established naturalist, well-known for the astonishing collections he'd sent ahead. He'd also grown from an observer of science into a probing theorist, and the voyage would provide him with a lifetime of experiences to ponder, and the seeds of a theory he would work on for the rest of his life.
Hope this is okay and helps!
