    hoping they’d provide a decent place to sleep. The girl trembled as the darkness wrapped itself around her. Every creak in the trees‚ every snapping twig‚ caused a sudden rush of fear. She curled into the fetal position trying to keep warm and make herself feel better. More so than even the noises of the forest‚ the fear that she had no idea how she got out here‚ kept her up all night. She kept her eyes open‚ staring into darkness. Thoughts raced through her head about what happened to her. Why did

    Analysis of the Final Scenes of Alfred Hitchcock’s Notorious After viewing Alfred Hitchcock’s Notorious for the first time‚ the film did not strike me as particularly complex. Nothing specific about the film lodged itself in my brain screaming for an answer—or‚ at least‚ an attempted answer. Yet‚ upon subsequent viewings‚ subtle things became more noticeable.

The darkness consumed the beauty of all the plants‚ and made all the nooks and crevices of the garden seem darker and full of mystery. The beautiful white noise we were listening too began to sound more frightening and less relaxing. Insects‚ frogs and other

This tone is exemplified through the constant speaking of how he is on a street in which nobody is there with him and he is alone.

My friends and I did an experiment on weather mealworms would rather be in darkness or in the light. After observing the mealworm’s behavior we made a hypothesis stating that a mealworm would prefer a dark environment over a light one. During our observations we paid extra close attention to whether or not they would burrow under

Then‚ just as suddenly as I noticed him‚ I saw three men in black‚ almost concealed in the darkness‚ moving swiftly up behind him. I watched as the shortest of the three pulled a gun out and began firing at the lone man. When I saw him hit the ground‚ I about fell out of my chair. Just as quickly as the three appeared‚ they vanished into a pitch

    Besides the clock’s loneliness And this blank page where my fingers move. 本段loneliness重复出现了两次,与第一行的midnight形成呼应。相似的还有no star 与darkness。同时fingers move又与loneliness所表现出的寂静形成对比。虽然深夜静谧,但作者的思绪却正活跃,不然也无法在deep darkness里察觉到something is near and entering the loneliness。 标点也值得注意,冒号后交待的都是背景环境。 Through the window I see no star : Something more near Though deeper within darkness Is entering the loneliness : 第一段交待了人物,时间,环境。提到了something else is alive。 最后一句的标点是个冒号,巧妙地与第二段构建起联系。 根据词典,to touch means

    Alfred Noyes (1880-1958) The Highwayman THE wind was a torrent of darkness among the gusty trees‚ The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon cloudy seas‚ The road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor‚ And the highwayman came riding— Riding—riding— The highwayman came riding‚ up to the old inn-door. He’d a French cocked-hat on his forehead‚ a bunch of lace at his chin‚ A coat of the claret velvet‚ and breeches of brown doe-skin; They fitted with never a wrinkle: his boots were
