What Is Jim's Trustworthy
I think Jim make people believe he's trustworthy, but deep down inside, he's not. Why I think this is because he seems very mysterious and secretive. When Daniel shows Jim and his friend his "fossils" Jim tells Daniel they aren't real fossils. Also, Jim is very interested in the fossilized turtle shell. Maybe there is something we don't know about. Daniel's and Julie's mom also seems to not like what's happening. Something long ago may have happened with Jim, his friend, and who they are working for. Last but not least, he and his buddy set up the tent with all the equipment BEFORE he went and met Julie's father.

    Analyzing Pollack's 'No Sissy Stuff'

    In chapter 27, we see Jim going against the Boy Code and expressing extreme “sissy” behavior with the realization of his actions. “I was no sooner certain of this than I began to feel sick, faint, and terrified. The hot blood was running over my back and chest. The dirk, where it had pinned my shoulder to the mast, seemed to burn like a hot iron; yet it was not so much these real sufferings that distressed me...” (Robert L.S,…

    Case Analysis

    Jim Donovan did not do a good job preparing for his appointment with Don Bird. He assumed Bird would accept him, that he would be able to observe the company and have a smooth transition into his new position. He never thought he would be put on the spot like he was. Instead of thinking he might have an interview and should prepare for anything he just decided to wing it. We think he did a very poor job in “playing” things in regards to his appointment. There are a few mistakes that he made such as, expecting that since Bird was retiring he would be pleasant and welcoming. It is hard not to assume that if someone was older and ready to retire they would be happier to give their position to someone younger and maybe even look to mentor them and help them through the first couple of months. Bird handled this the complete opposite, as he state he would not support Jim in any way and did not believe he was qualified for the position. This could have been a tactic Bird used to test Jim and to see how he handled tough situations, much like a surprise interview. The case leaves this open ended and it does not tell us how Jim reacts to these harsh statements or what happens…

    Treasure Island Novel Analysis

    Similarly, Jim overcomes the fear of the main antagonist, Long John Silver. When Jim was trapped in the enemy’s camp, he said, “I no more fear you than I fear a fly. Kill me, if you please, or spare me”(Stevenson 164), to Long John Silver and all pirates. Jims used to be fearful of John Silver, but now he was not. Jim’s overcoming of the fear to Long John Silvers clarifies that he grew to a brave boy in the adventure. Differently, Jim’s fear of pirates becomes part of his curiosity. When Jim was hiding under a bridge and pirates were coming, “[his] curiosity, in a sense, was stronger than [his] fear, for [he] could not remain where [he] was, but crept back to the bank again” (Stevenson 25). Although Jim is afraid of pirates, his fear enhances his curiosity, which leads him to the adventure, where is different that in Life of Pi, Pi’s fear of hyena strength the relationship between Pi and Richard Parker. As well, to contrast with Life of Pi, Jim and his family’s fear of Billy Bones gives him chances to go adventure and grow. At every beginning of the story, “the first monster that confronts Jim in this tale is the seaman Billy Bones, the bully who terrorizes Jim’s family at the Admiral Benbow Inn and seems to cause the death of Jim’s father” (Livingston par.2) Jim’s father’s fear of Billy Bones leads to his death, which frees Jims to the adventure, and Jim’s fear of Billy Bones works in an opposite way that increases…

    How Did Abraham Lincoln Trustworthy

    All presidents should be trustworthy and have no background of crime. Before Abraham Lincoln was president, he undermined “the foundations of the U.S. republic.” In 1861, he became president, which is surprising because he may have not been loyal and trustworthy. Also, Nelson Mandela went against his government, and became President years later. These two men were very well trusted by the people of their countries, and they also came up with many ideas. The ideas that they came up with were shared with others and the ideas began to spread, including to the government. Abraham Lincoln and Nelson Mandela are similar by freeing African peoples and becoming presidents of their country; despite them being similar, they also have their differences…

    The Witness Paper

    Indirect characterization helps to provide a deeper understanding of a character. Through the questions the children have for Uncle Jimbilly, especially the younger two, Porter demonstrates their innocence further. “The children thought Uncle Jimbilly had got over his slavery very well.” This mentality creates some questions the children believe to be harmless; they do not fully understand the emotional strain Uncle Jimbilly faces. However, with his responses, the reader comprehends his true feelings on the matter. Maria asks him to carve “Safe in Heaven” on the tombstone for her rabbit. At her question Uncle Jimbilly grows impatient and continues to reminisce about the boys in the swamp and the unfair ways they were treated. This highlights the bitter feelings he has toward his past and the fact that the children do not understand his suffering.…

    Jim's Hero Journey Fail Analysis

    Jim’s hero journey failed because he made too many wrong choices. For example, when he was buying flowers, he became distracted and unintentionally created an extremely extravagant bouquet, when he originally only wanted a few yellow roses. “But there was a problem: what were these flowers going to cost? The bouquet as she assembled it—as it came to be, in her hands—was broader and taller by far than what he’d come into the florist’s wanting” (Antrim 283). Once he realized that the situation was getting out of hand, he made an attempt to change it, but his insecurities got in the way because he was trying to impress the girl making the arrangement. “’What would you like me to take out?’ the girl asked. Was she annoyed? She had her back to him.…
