In addition‚ not only does she bring examples to show the characters but she also uses the exact quotations to express the very same idea of them. Joyce Maynard’s strong ability to

The story of "The Veldt"‚ is an interesting story which concerns the issue of how modern technology can destroy the typical united family.

just cowardice‚ shrinking away from the problem‚ and poking fun at it‚ without doing anything constructive to solve the issue. To the uneducated‚ political and social satire may provide convincing arguments that can indeed sway election or public opinion. However‚ that’s not something to be marveled at.

Thus‚ English-lexicological learning is important in some aspects
