Question

Write a summary of the passage (The Woman in Black) (250 words)

Answer 1

In the passage the narrator heard a certain thumping and got spooked out. He arose out of bed and followed the sound to a door. He couldn’t open it. He looked through the window and saw nothing. He supposedly heard a child crying, but it was just the wind. The narrator was pretty scared, but there was almost some familiarity to it, some long lost memories. Spider, his dog, was unsettled through the whole procedure of events. The passage tells us the author’s emotions and thoughts, which is pretty funny because sometimes the reader feels the same as the author! The author almost paints an image in our minds about the authors point of view and his senses, sight, taste, smell, noises he hears, and even other adverbs relating to what he is saying. Susan Hill, the author, describes everything her character probably saw or heard in this spine tickling extract. The way she even makes us pat the dog in the extract is something quite special. In this closing paragraph, I want to conclude with a note that the description of the glistening moon and the marshes had an example of a sudden, much needed dullness. “There lay the marshes silver grey and empty”. Just before that, however, was the description of the moon with some good examples of personification. The example is as follows: “Guided by the slant of moonlight that reached out into the darkness of the corridor”. In the end then, this ghost story is a great example of English literature.

We lose the great description of this story.

She almost guides us through the house, and then all of a sudden she will add a bit of a surprise here or there. Perhaps a short sentence or some onamatopoiea here or there.
