boost badge

This badge is about how i present king lairs extract a.

In my opinion i think that this setting is presented in a  uncontrollable and aggressive mood. The reason i think so is because it says phrases such as “sulphurous and thought-executing fires”. And that it says at the start of the extract,”blow,winds and crack your cheeks!rage!blow!” The figurative language  that was being used for the first line was personification. The reason was because it was giving a naturalistic feature a human characteristic.When the reader is seeing this he would ponder how it would look if you could actually blow winds and crack your cheeks and that this doesn’t really sound positive and that he isn’t in a good mood.And that when he said rage he meant cause extensive damage to his political Empire. The “crack” of cheeks as well as the command of “Rage” and “Blow” help to emphasise how there is to be some level of destruction wrought at the hands of human beings to be evident.

And that is how i present king lairs extract.

selecct a quotation badge

the task

Your task is to find and explain the quotation from a piece of writing to support an idea that you have about a character,setting or theme.you would read the extract from Ender’s game below and answer the question provided in a single paragraph.

question

how does the author ,Orson scott card, present the character of Ender

Ender’s game by Orsons got card

Accordingto the text , the feeling that you get is that Ender is a very generous boy. However when people try to attack him he is a completely different person. Because it says in the text that “he caught one of the puncher by the arm and threw him as hard as he could. And that he butted one of the boy’s face to a helmet whilst they were screaming with blood.”

So this makes the reader feel as if Ender is not somebody you would like to mess with or bother, otherwise you are in deep trouble. But one special thing about Ender is that he doesn’t do this because he wants to but because he doesn’t like people getting on his nerves. Meaning that when people back up because they’re scared of him he feels upset and doesn’t want people to think of him in that way.
