CAN-CAN

The text is head-lined CAN-CAN.
The author of the text is Arturo Vivante. ARTURO VIVANTE was born in Rome and grew up in Italy, England, and Canada. He earned a medical doctorate from Rome University in 1949, but left his medical practice in the mid-1950s when his short stories began to be published. Now he lives in the United States where he has been a fuul-time writer for over thirty years. He has published two novels “A googly babe” (1951) and “Doctor Giovanni” (1969), as well as several volumes of short stories, such as The french girls of killini (1967) and Run to the waterfull (1979). This text is about one family where the head of the family i.e the husband was going to betray her wife. When he told a lie to his wife about his intention of having a drive, his wife being jealous in subtle way but very quiete and funny, doing can-can was seeing off her husbund. He was very surprised watching the wife’s behavour, because he had imagined all these in other way: expected her to do something uninteresting and unattractive such as washing or sewing but not doing can-can. That’s why being with the lover he was thinking of his wife. This text touches upon the problems concerning family problems such as disloyalty. And I think it wants to provide the reader that they should be interesting and look well for their husbands and wives. These can reduce betrayal, dishonesty and unfaithfulness. The atmosphere of the text is funy but only in outside, in inside it is very grievy. Durin the event it’s getting more stressed. The text is devided into three parts. It begins with the husband’s lie. His intention having a drive. But of course insipite of the driva he was going to meet Sarah in cofe, then going to a house on a lake his wife knew nothing about. This part is also included a very importanat moment thanks to which then the whole text developed. It is the moment when the wife was seeing off her husband, her quiete and cheerful behavour,

    Firoozeh Dumas' essay, "The F-Word," addresses the very relatable struggle every person with an ethnic name faces in the American culture. Her prime example being herself, Dumas humorously and realistically depicts the trauma a person endures from constantly having to educate people about your name. She also uses the names of her siblings to provide a comparison of the names' meaning in Persian versus their American mispronunciations. Dumas' seamless use of analogies, word choice and quotations assists in her goal of making the reader understand and sympathize with her frustration.…

    This essay use formal language. And there are any interesting connotations in this essay. First, in a sentence bound to be let down, it tells the reader that we will be disappointed if we do it continuously. Second, erratic outbursts, it is really interesting because the writer put word outbursts after erratic. This part shows the reader about the personality of the husband. It means that her husband has high temper, he get angry easily but she doesn’t want accept that. I think this choice of word show the personality of the husband that has denied by his wife. About the diction in this essay, it is depend on the choice of words. The diction in this essay is important. The diction in this essay is abstract. We can’t imagine and make any picture about the meaning of this word. But we can understand the meaning of this word by the whole story. The word “Really” explains the habit of the wife. The wife always created and stuck with her own image or illusion of her husband, the wife ignored the real quality of her husband because she thinks it will make they don’t like each other anymore. In paragraph 11, “I know many other people who live with their ideas of each other. Not with a real person but with a “really”. In this sentence, the writer wants the reader to understand about this idea. People often say that…

    Godwin opens her short story with an opening sentence that confuses the mood of the parable and confounds the reader. “Once upon a time there was a wife and mother one too many times” (39). Those first four words, the quint-essential opening of every story book fantasy that invokes beautiful imagery of princesses and green forests with colorful gardens and carefree animals and always has a way of overcoming great obstacles to endorse a long and happy life, opens the reader’s mind to a cheerful theme. The next six words present an “ah” moment, eliciting the feeling of comfort and caring that a wife and mother provides. She has extracted emotions of love and adoration that many of us endear with our mothers to passion and intimacy towards our wives. Ms. Godwin has, in the first ten words of her first sentence, devoted the reader to the main character without even mentioning anything about her. We do not know who she is, we do not know where she is, we do not know how she is, but we want to know.…

    This story has a good use of metaphors to show how the widowed wife is feeling out her husbands death. She obviously is not upset once she realizes she has no one to hold her back now. This is exemplified by how the author presents this to us, in such metaphors as ""(). This clearly shows her turning feeling, from the pain and anguish, to the joy and relief from being free. In all it shows in a very clever way how the woman changes her emotions.…

    “There were not six million Jews murdered; there was one murder, six million times.” said the Holocaust survivor Abel Herzberg. (Herzberg) Holocaust was the most terrific event in the history of civilization that comprised genocides of Jews, physically disabled, homosexual and gypsies, in death camps. Elie goes through torture and terror and is treated as animals like other Jews. Elie doesn’t see any hope of light coming to his life which is dark and unpredictable as Night. Night is a memoir inscribed by Elie talking about the dreadful incident, his relationship with his father and how he lost his faith in God. It is endured with sorrow, horror and sufferings. Revolted by the torture he must sustain, Elie questions if God really exists, “Why, but why should I bless him? Because he in his great might, had created Auschwitz, Birkenau, Buna, and so many other factories of death? (67). Elie’s faith is devastated and shaken. He has changed from how he was as a child. Holocaust changes him as a person, takes away his interest in religion, makes him loose his faith, fills him with hatred and changes his view towards the Lord.…

    The Nature of a person's writing style can sometimes show more about an individual then the words they actually write, the poetic twists in sentence flow or the professional structure of their grammar. Writing styles are as unique as fingerprints and to define them can be as arduous as mastering the skills required to properly form one. In the quest to define my own style I discovered a detail that I have determined encapsulates the style with which I write; I write with passion. When I say I am a passionate writer I don't mean that I love to write but more that my level of personal affection toward the subject I am writing on directly affects the emotional nature I write in. In other words, I write more expressively and artistically the…
