Sonnet XII

by William Shakespeare

When I do count the clock that tells the time,
And see the brave day sunk in hideous night;
When I behold the violet past prime,
And sable curls all silvered o'er with white;
When lofty trees I see barren of leaves
Which erst from heat did canopy the herd,
And summer's green all girded up in sheaves
Borne on the bier with white and bristly beard,
Then of thy beauty do I question make,
That thou among the wastes of time must go,
Since sweets and beauties do themselves forsake
And die as fast as they see others grow;
And nothing 'gainst Time's scythe can make defence
Save breed, to brave him when he takes thee hence.

A change in point of view can lead to a change in perception. Imagine you are a young screenwriter working for a major motion picture company in the writer’s pool. You have been given the task of developing a new version of the Perseus story. However, the company executives would like to see a movie about Perseus told from another character’s point of view.

Your assignment is to provide the executives with an outline of this new screenplay. The following should be included in your outline:

list of principal characters with a description of their roles in the story
description of key plot elements
identification of central conflict and solution
the rationale for re-telling this story from your chosen character’s POV.

I know that technically in the sentence, "Whom did you call?" the word "whom" is correct, but is it still improper if I said to someone, "Who did you call?" I've hardly ever heard people use whom anyways, but .....

Carrie’s War

Many large towns and cities in Britain were bombed during the Second World War (1939 – 1945). In an effort to keep them safe, many children from towns and cities were sent to live in the country, usually staying with families. This was called being evacuated, and the children were known as evacuees.

In Carrie’s War by Nina Bawden, Carrie and her brother Nicholas are evacuated from London to Wales. In this extract, they have just boarded the train and it is pulling out of the station, leaving their mother on the platform.

________________________________________________________________________________

Sheep and mountains. “Oh, it’ll be such fun,” their mother had said when she kissed them goodbye at the station. “Living in the country instead of the stuffy old city. You’ll love it, you see if you don’t!” As if Hitler had arranged this old war for their own good, just so that Carrie and Nick could be sent away in a train with gas masks slung over their shoulders and their names on cards round their necks. Labelled like packages – Caroline Wendy Willow and Nicholas Peter Willow – only with no address to be sent to. None of them, not even their teachers, knew where they were going.

“That’s part of the adventure,” Carrie’s mother had said, and not just to cheer them up: it was her nature to look on the bright side. If she found herself lost in the jungle, she’d just say, “Well, at least we’ll be warm.”

Thinking of her mother always making the best of things (or at least pretending to; when the train began to move, mother stopped smiling) Carrie nearly did cry. There was a lump like a pill stuck in her throat. She swallowed hard and put on a serious face.




Answer number 1. What does the word evacuate mean as it is used in the passage?

Answer number 2. Which of the following words BEST describes Carrie's mother?

We boarded a flight from Orlando, Florida to Buenos Aires in Argentina. We would board a ship that would take us from Argentina to the remote Snow Hill Island in the Weddell Sea. Mom slept for the whole plane ride, but I stayed awake and researched penguins that live in Antarctica on my phone. I didn't realize how many penguins didn't live in cold areas like Antarctica. Apparently, I wasn't the only one on the plane interested in reading about animals. The boy sitting across the aisle from me was reading a book about sharks, which was pretty neat.

"Hey," I whispered to the boy so I wouldn't wake up my mom. "Where are you heading?" He said nothing at first and gave me a funny look.

"Argentina, obviously," he said sarcastically as he turned the page in his book. I felt a bit awkward and glanced back at my phone. He didn't seem very friendly. After a while, he closed his book and turned towards me.

"Hey, I'm Steven. What's your name?" he asked. He smiled at me. "Sorry. I can be weird around new people."

"I'm Sally. We're heading to Argentina, too, but only so that we can get on a ship to Antarctica, we are going to see the emperor penguins and their chicks."

a
Sally thinks animals are silly, so she wants to play with them.

Sally thinks animals are cute, so she wants to take some home with her.

c

d
Sally thinks animals are interesting, so she wants to learn more about them.

Passage

Silence

One moonlit night in May, while the nightingales sang, Father Ignatius’ wife entered his chamber. Her countenance expressed suffering. Approaching her husband, she touched his shoulder, and managed to say between her sobs:
"Father, let us go to Verochka."
Without turning his head, Father Ignatius glanced severely at his wife over the rims of his spectacles.
"That one toward the other be so pitiless!" she pronounced slowly, and her plump face was distorted with a grimace of pain and exasperation, as if in this manner she wished to express what stern people they were—her husband and daughter.
Father Ignatius smiled and arose. Closing his book, he removed his spectacles, placed them in the case and meditated. His long, black beard, inwoven with silver threads, lay dignified on his breast, and it slowly heaved at every deep breath.
"Well, let us go!" said he.
Vera’s chamber was in the attic, and the narrow, wooden stair bent and creaked under the heavy tread of Father Ignatius. Well he knew that nothing would come of their talk with Vera.
"Why do you come?" asked Vera, raising a bared arm to her eyes. The other arm lay on top of a white summer blanket hardly distinguishable from the fabric, so white, translucent and cold was its aspect.
"Verochka!" began her mother, but sobbing, she grew silent.
"Vera!" said her father, making an effort to soften his dry and hard voice. "Tell us what troubles you?"
Vera was silent.
"Vera, do not, we, your mother and I, deserve your confidence? Look at your aged mother, how much she suffers! And I. . . ." The dry voice trembled, truly something had broken in it.
Vera was silent. Father Ignatius cautiously stroked his beard, and continued:
"Against my wish you went to St. Petersburg—did I pronounce a curse upon you who disobeyed me? Or did I not give you money? Well, why then are you silent?"
Father Ignatius became silent, and an image arose before him of something huge, of granite, and terrible, full of invisible dangers and indifferent people. And there, alone and weak, was his Vera. An awful hatred against that terrible and mysterious city grew in the soul of Father Ignatius, and anger against his daughter who was obstinately silent.
"St. Petersburg has nothing to do with it," said Vera, morosely. "And nothing is the matter with me."
