    The Lottery Theme

    • 2 Pages

    The lottery theme I think that the theme of the lottery is to treat others how you want to be treated. I think that this theme fits into all of this story. The whole story is about this theme.

    Theme Of Zebra

    • 252 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Zebra is a story where a young boy liked running like zebras until something bad happened and it changed his life. The theme of Zebra is working with a friend will help you overcome a disability.

One reason why i believe that the theme of Zebra is working with friends will help you overcome a disability is because on pg 204 the author wrote “ Zebra went to Mrs. English’s office and

    Macbeth Themes

    • 3 Pages

    The actions of Macbeth and other characters show that appearances are misleading and Shakespeare created dialogue that constantly incorporates techniques that represent this duplicity.

To consider the issue of the power of time and nature‚ the poet has the narrator reporting on a meeting with a traveler from ’an antique land’ or Egypt‚ who told of seeing in the desert‚ the remains
