Day After Day Dark Green
1,427 words"The sun flared down on the growing corn day after day until a line of brown spread along the edge of each green bayonet, so the earth became pale, pink in the red country and white in the gray country. In the water-cut gullies the earth dusted down in dry little streams. Gophers and ant lions started small avalanches. And as the sharp sun struck day after day, the leaves of the young corn became less stiff and erect; they bent in a curve at first, and then, as the central ribs of strength grew ...

I sit (Remarque, All Quiet VII. 151) But Baumer continues to wait and the sign does not come; quiet rapture does not occur. The room itself, and the pre-enlistment world it represents, become alien to him. "A sudden feeling foreignness suddenly rises in me. I cannot find my way back" (Remarque, All Quiet VII. 152). Baumer understands that he irredeemably lost to the primitive, military, non-academic the war. Ultimately...

Million Years Ago Five Hundred
1,312 wordsOn Saturday 12 th 2000, my family and I went on a float trip on the Huzzah River in Steelville, Missouri. The Huzzah River and its surroundings were a perfect location for me to look for my fossil. Since the water level was shallow, that enabled me to look to the river bottom. Almost immediately after I began my search near the edge of the river, I spotted a rock that appeared to have some sort of shell embedded in it. I decided this would be a good specimen for me to try to examine and identify...

Soap Operas King James
1,649 wordsFor me Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a prophet for the future. Unfortunately it is a real one. The book describes a lurid picture of our world a world where books are burned. Heinrich Heine once said that Where they have burned books, they will end in burning human beings. It is also necessary to consider that the book was written after Hitlers deeds became familiar to the world (Nuremberg trails). In our book we have a similar example a woman burned with her books. Bradbury compares the Naz...
