.... Tom is hot tempered, ready to snap at anyone who gets in his way. He is also a racist, always talking about the “White Race” needing to conquer all. “It’s up to us who are the dominant race to watch out or these other races will have control of things.” Tom is the perfect example of the kind of amoral people described in the book. Greedy, ignorant and wealthy. Myrtle Wilson is just the same. She is dishonest towards her husband and speaks highly of herself. But she is one over Tom because she takes him for granted. He is the one buying .....

Many agents pocketed extra money that way. A man by the name of Grenville observed this and created an act, The Revenue Act, which was successful with Parliament. This act stated that the tax on molasses would decrease to a mere three pence tariff per g .....

.... is affecting his life in a bad way consciously whereas it’s his own fault not wording his thoughts to Phineas. Gene is never sure himself in many occasions and what his own properties are.

.... the French singular definite article, 'le'; 'll' on the fifth line represents two ones; 'one' on the 7th line spells the number out; the 8th line, 'l', isolates the number; and 'iness', the last line, can mean "the state of being I" - that is, individuality - or "oneness", deriving the "one" from the lowercase roman numeral 'i' (200).

The repetition of 'villian' and the assonance of 'remorseless,treacherous,lecherous,kindless' provide a feeling of hysteria to the speech before Hamlet once more turns u .....

.... as a woman. The impression that is given is that she is an immature character. Her point of view is that she will do what it takes to please the man. She is nervous but is in denial; she tries to reassure herself. She feels the man’s distance from her and tries to draw him back in to her world. The setting was very important in "" and contained a lot of symbolism. One of the first comments the girl made was that the hills were "lovely", and "looked like white elephants".
