    Text and Discourse The nature of text When we think of a text‚ we typically think of a stretch of language complete in itself and of some considerable extent. However‚ there appears to be a problem when we have to define units of language which consist of a single sentence‚ but that fulfill the basic requirement of forming a meaningful whole in their own right. For example: “keep off the grass”. This text is complete in terms of communicative meaning. So‚ if the meaningful of the texts does not

In general‚ memory acts like a computer. Incoming information will be encoded‚ it is like typing data into a computer. Next‚ stored the information that we typed into the system. Finally‚ memories must be retrieved in order to be useful. According to Parente and Stapleton (1993)‚ they stated that “memory is a

    Memory Memory is defined as the persistence of learning over time through the storage and retrieval of information. Memory is a vital tool in learning and thinking process.

Memory is viewed as a three-stage process‚ which include sensory

    dictionary defines memory as the mental capacity or faculty of retaining and reviving facts‚ events‚ and impressions‚ or of recalling or recognizing previous experiences. However‚ the dictionary does not reveal the wondrous and downright horrifying things about memory. Memory is my ally‚ but a fickle one. I believe memory serves as a funnel to the past‚ except this funnel faces the opposite direction. My past moments are poured into the smaller end‚ causing most of my memories to be lost. Actually

    Throughout history and modern day texts and films‚ archetypes have been used to add significance and meaning to literature by allowing us to understand patterns of human behaviour. Looking at the archetype of the outsider‚ the reader speculates the outsider’s purpose to challenge the values and the assumed expectations of society; such as the actions of society to initiate change in the archetype? The “novel catcher in the rye” by jd Salinger‚ and the film “Gran Torino” by Clint eastwood both explore

    Willa Cather’s My Anthonia‚ in my opinion was not only easy to read but also a thoroughly enjoyable read. It tells the vivid stories of several immigrant families who move to the rural state of Nebraska to start new lives in America. A Bohemian family‚ by the name of the Shimerdas‚ is one of the main focal points of the story. The eldest daughter of the Shimerda family is named Antonia. The book’s narrator‚ Jim Burden‚ arrives in the town of Black Hawk‚ Nebraska‚ on the same train as the Shimerdas
