    I believe that these two stories attempt to show how much people change when the bond of a family is broken. In “St Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves”, you could see how much the girls changed when they were separated from their parents and their brothers. They were able to change their habits and behavior so that they would be accepted by society. I don’t think they would have made the same progress if they were able to live with their family. This story gave a perfect example of how people change once they are taken away from their family and introduced to a new environment.…

    What I saw was that each main character changes at the end of each story but yet still the title has an numerous meaning. Symbolism plays the main role in context of change in characters. In “Flight”, a grandfather changes his way of thinking by giving (symbolizing) freedom to the bird. As in deeper thought of it, it means he’s letting his granddaughter to choose the right path that she wants to follow. (Prove in the text) An old man said: - “Now you can go”. Which in the text was a reference to the bird but really these four words symbolized that his granddaughter is free to go. In “Young Man’s Folly”, the change occurred in the boy when at the end he’d understood that real love is where his mother was. But what hurt the boy so bad was a confusion that his dad changed, he did not understand why he needed “more space”, or why “finding himself” if he has everything he ever needed with them. Luckily mother of the boy stayed the same, and it was her love that helped him get through his crisis of change. In both stories the main characters are upset because of the change that other characters made in their life. Both characters…

    The stories I have read: "The Lottery", "Never" and "Harrison Bergeron" all can be similar by one certain theme. I believe that theme would be change. All of these stories' characters needed change in their lives. In "Never" the main character was hopeless and felt trapped and unhappy with her life. She needed to change this routine by seeing the world in a better light or leaving her past behind and catching the train mentioned in the text. In "Harrison Bergeron", the main character, Harrison fights for the right of being individual and change the law that is enforcing it. The traditions may be needed to change in "The Lottery" as innocent people were stoned to death for getting the wrong slip of paper.…

    Change is the making of someone or something become different. Every journey will bring either a large or a small change. Two short stories, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown,”, and Ernest Hemingway’s “Soldier’s Home,” and an English ballad written by Samuel Taylor Coleridge titled “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” all demonstrate in detail the changes a person experiences during a journey. The main characters, from the three previously mentioned stories, each go on a journey that significantly changes their personal outlook on themselves and with life itself afterward.…

    Change is the initial and most noticeable stage of coming of age. It occurs both physically and mentally, and it plays a major role in the configuration of characters. Change is displayed when Ping looks in the mirror for the first time in several months and thinks to herself “ my rosy red cheeks have faded into a rich cream colour and my skin looks as soft as silk…” This combination of alliteration and a simile describes the physical changes that ping has undergone and it shows that as Ping began to face more challenges her rate of development increased as well as these physical changes ping was face with many mental changes.…

    The authors of both passages, Frank Conroy (passage I) and William Maxwell (passage II) use imagery and many forms of symbolism to express a similar theme; the simplicity of a boyhood friendship. Both Conroy and Maxwell write these passages with a similar point-of-view and neither includes a conflict. Also, the boys in both passages meet under similar circumstances.…

    The most important thing that makes the stories different is the setting and the plot. Both stories may have a similar theme but the setting and plot it what separates them. For example, one story takes place in a cage and the other story takes place in a school. The climax in each story is different from each other. For example, in the story “from Boy’s Life” the student was so desperate to leave the class when the teacher told the class to leave in a single line, which makes the reader wonder what happens…

    The story of “Young Goodman Brown” by Nathaniel Hawthorne is about a man named Brown who goes into the forest and discovers more then what he bargain for on his journey. The other story “A&P” by John Updlike is about a young boy named Sammy who realizes, that he doesn’t want to work at a grocery store for the rest of his life and to look for something better. Both of these stories have two major symbolisms that affect the story and give it a deeper meaning to these characters.…

    Continuity Theory holds that, in making adaptive choices, middle-aged and older adults attempt to preserve and maintain existing internal and external structures; and they prefer to accomplish this objective by using strategies tied to their past experiences of themselves and their social world. Change is linked to the person's perceived past, producing continuity in inner psychological characteristics as well as in social behaviour and in social circumstances. Continuity is thus a grand adaptive strategy that is promoted by both individual preference and social approval.…
