Gray Lane, protagonist of World War Z by Marc Forster and I are not at all similar. We have different views of the world, are viewed by the world in distinctive ways and I would respond in a different way to the central conflict of the novel. Therefore, I believe given the chance, we would not be friends. My protagonist's Gray Lane views the world as of right now as a dangerous and unhealthy, because it the whole world is covered with zombies and he has to travel and find a way to stop from everybody turning into zombies. But before people turned into zombies and stuff I think that Gray viewed the world as a place him and his family could be safe and they didn’t have any worry’s about anything until the zombies came.

The world is the best of both worlds. I think the world sees me as a person cares about the animals and the vermin who would do anything to save it. It sees me as a person who cares about others and go out of my way to do something for another. Kind a like how I went to Honduras just for me to get there I went out of my way paying for my trip and the places we was going to sleep at, the traspation, sucartiy, and the 4 plane tickets to get there and back. I spent like $21,000 just for all that stuff. But I still had a great time I did a play for the little kids in the village I taught the older kids something and I went out to eat with them all in all it was a great time and I think the world sees me as a great person for doing it and I’m trying to go down there next summer. How the world views my …show more content…
And they view him as a person who already help the world without this conflict he work for the UN so he been helping the world to be fair. My protagonist response to the conflict was him acting to save the world and his family. Gary the protagonist he went with some navey seals to fly to different countrys to find patient zero and he have different conflits with the zombies like when him and some the seals was on the united airplane with a lot of other people and in the closet was zombie and somebody end up opening the closet and the zombiee started bitting everybody turning them in to zombies but Gray and the nevey seals and other people was in first class trying to block them self off but somebody dropped a bag and the zombies are attracted to nosie so they started biting people in first class so one of the Navey SEAL ha a granade so gray grabed it n pulled the pin and threw it to the back. And it exspolted so all the zombies can get sucked out the plane, but him and Navy SEAL never did because they had their seat built one. Like me, I could never do what Gray did ill just sit there and wait for my turn to turn into a

In the book seventh most important thing our character Arthur Owens is a sweet kid with an unselfish heart, but one day it all took a turn for the worst. Arthur Owens loves his family he cares for his mom, sister and he's grieving of his dad's death. He's Always thinking about his family like when a cop car showed up to his front door stated in the book "In fact when Arthur looked out the window and saw a cop car pulling into his driveway late on Monday afternoon, his fist panicked thought was something bad had happened to his mom and Barbara".

Sue Monk Kidd has introduced very complex, yet simple characters that can be easily related to by many readers of the novel. Rosaleen has a tough exterior, but truly cares for Lily Owens, as T.Ray Owens is unpleasant, and considered to be abusive toward Lily. Further on, we have Zachary Taylor, a handsome, charismatic football player while working for August in her honey house develops feelings for Lily, as there’s June Boatright with a heart of gold, yet is distrusting in regards to Lily at first. These character are just a few of the many that entail the plot, and make them relatable. Although, like I said Sue Monk Kidd has developed many character that we can relate to, I believe I relate to Lily Owens the most in “The Secret Life of Bees.”
Tyrell, written by Coe Booth, is a story about a fifteen year old young man attempting to make use of his life in Bronxwood, a town in New York City. Bronxwood is notorious for its drug abuse and criminal charges, so Ty, as referred to in the book, has troubles trying to look out for his family and friends. This book is quite the unique and one of the more straight-forward books out there. It consists of a lot of sex, profanity, fights, drug abuse, and alcohol abuse. I know most of these parts make for a unique plot, but they really catch you off guard and proceed to keep you engaged.
Cristy FredaAP Lit7 November 2017Lutie Johnson is the victim to the abuse of a cold, windy November day on 116th street. In The Street, Petry establishes Lutie Johnson’s negative relationship to the urban setting through the use of imagery, personification, and selection of detail.Petry uses imagery that affects all of the reader’s senses throughout the excerpt to establish Lutie Johnson’s negative relationship to the urban setting. The text begins with Petry describing 116th street having a cold wind that “rattled the tops of garbage cans, sucked window shades out through the top of opened windows and set them flapping back against the windows” (ll 2-5). This quote immediately establishes a negative relationship
The smallest bit of knowledge can greatly influence your chance of survival. This is shown in hatchet, by Gary Paulsen. In Hatchet Brian is a kid who is stranded in the Canadian Wilderness with nothing but a hatchet. Brian has to learn how to make tools, find food, and make a suitable shelter. Brain slowly learns and progresses until he is on top of the food chain. Through the novel, Brian slowly gets stronger physically and mentally, as he rises through the foodchain.
Do you think you would survive by yourself in the middle of the woods for 54 days? The question that I asked you is because of the novel Hatchet and this novel is written by Gary Paulsen. Out of all of the things in the story that stood out to me was the AHA moments because I think they help brian the most. The two biggest AHA moments was when he had to put his food up higher and that he can't be lazy.
One of the ways Lee shows that people are essentially good is through the people
Many people in the army feel guilty. They regret all the murders. They see the people they killed everywhere. In their dreams, outside, shadows, they are forever haunted with the faces of the dead. Christopher Lane, a boy with a broken background, is haunted by the killed. After accidentally murdering Mortimer Genever, (vowing to get his revenge) his twin brother Ernest runs away. Showing great determination, hopefulness, and honesty, Chris tracks Ernest down, to apologize for the mistaken murder.
In the novel Hatchet, Gary Paulsen portrays many different scenes that are significant to the story. Near the middle of the story Brian is all alone in the wilderness where he has to find food and water to try to survive the challenges he is facing while being all alone. While out looking for food comes across a bear “ It was black, with a cinnamon-colored nose, not twenty feet from him and big” (Paulsen 29). The encounter with the bear is significant because the reader can see that not only does the character have to worry about food, he has to worry about the animals in the forest with him.
Many events took place during the Mary Day celebration and each of the characters contributes differently to the celebration. To begin with, Neil for the umpteenth time asks June to marry her and she finally says yes. On page 222 Neil says to June "I came over here planning to ask you, for the hundredth time, to marry me'… 'All right,' she said. ' Let's get married.' " This quote indicates that June is finally going to get married to Neil after such a long wait.
The biggest belief that Chris McCandless has is that trust is essential to have a relationship with someone. This idea became clear to me in chapter twelve when I saw the quote that McCandless had highlighted in his book saying, “Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth. I sat at a table where rich food and wine in abundance, an obsequious attendance, but sincerity and truth were not; and I went away hungry,” and then the author mentions that McCandless wrote the word “truth” at the top of the page (page 117). From the fact that McCandless wrote and highlighted these words means that the quote is important, and the word truth was significant to him. Therefore, I can see that McCandless agrees with this quote and values truth more than any amount of money or love. Truth is something obviously something McCandless cant live without and I think this is because of his relationship with his dad. McCandless’s father wasn’t truthful with his family in chapter twelve when the author said, “Long after falling in love with Billie, long after she gave birth to Chris, Walt continued his relationship with Marcia in secret, dividing his time between two households” (page 121). In this quote we can see that
In the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen, a thirteen year old boy named Brian is flying in a plane to visit his father, when the pilot has a heart attack and the plane crashes. Brian survives the crash and is forced to live in the wilderness of the Canadian forest. Throughout this book, the author, Gary Paulsen, shows time and time again that no matter how rough things get, never give up. “He ripped at it until it released… somehow he pulled himself out” (29). This is an example from the beginning of the story from when Brian crash landed in a lake and tore himself out.

The sunset came forward as Young Goodman Brown arrived at Salem Village. There he saw his wife, Faith, whom he had only being married to for three months. Faith and Goodman Brown watched as the villagers tied up a so called “witch” to the stick. The villagers had accused the Indian woman of being a witch when she was seen dancing around. They had planned to get rid of the evil by burning her next morning. Tragically, in the old times this was a common practice. The people of the village considered themselves pure Christians. At least that is what Young Goodman Brown believed, till one night it he thought otherwise.
