(The Quarrel of the Monkey and the Crab) Once upon a time a crab and a monkey were walking together. As they were going on their way, the crab found a rice ball and the monkey found a persimmon seed. The monkey wanted the rice ball, so he proposed a trade. The crab knew it was an unfair trade, but was finally persuaded by the monkey to trade the rice ball for the persimmon seed. They exchanged the two items, but immediately after receiving the rice ball, monkey gobbled it up. The crab took the inedible persimmon seed to his garden and planted. He cared for it every day and it grew and grew, from a seed to a fine tree. One autumn day the crab went out to pick some of the ripe persimmons from his tree, but no matter

    The Monkey's Paw by W.W. Jacobs is a story of misfortune. The author uses foreshadowing in the story to build tension, and suspense to keep the reader entertained. W.W. Jacob does this by creating certain plot twists, and pacing the story rapidly but still having lots of detail. This book reminds me of being careful for what I wish for and lessons learned. The story begins with the main character, Mr. White, receiving a monkey's paw from a friend.…

    Josui in her passage is explaining that advertisers use famous celebrities to promote their products. The author supports her claim by first explaining her evidence on how companies use famous actors to promote certain products. She continues by saying,”This kind of marketing is misleading and insults the intelligence of the audience.” The author’s purpose is to get the audience to see how companies use actors and famous people to promote products in order to get the audience’s attention to checkout the actual product instead of listening to a famous person talking about it on TV. The author establishes an angry tone for this passage because she wants the audience to see that you don’t need someone telling you how good the product is when you could go see the product for yourself.…

    Naidu is remembered as a virtuoso of English metrical forms and romantic imagery in her poetry, which she wrote in English. Her mastery of such difficult poetic constructs as the dactylic prompted the English writers Edmund Gosse and Arthur Symons to praise her work widely and develop friendships with her. Equally concerned with India's freedom movement and women's rights as with writing poetry, Naidu became a close associate of Mahatma Gandhi and lectured on behalf of Indian independence throughout India, Africa, the United States, and Canada. Her political career reached its peak when she was elected the first woman governor of the United Provinces in 1947.…
