.... for the easy way out and drugs allow us that. A further similarity of Brave New World to us, si when John is in the hospital after hos mother's death due to soma abuse, and witnesses the workers receiving their soma rations.

.... uncles, and grandparents. Also, they taught me gender roles, the behavioral expectations associated with gender. This was done by giving me specific types of toys to play with, teaching me about other men in my family, and having me observe the roles of other men in my family. To teach me the difference between right and wrong, my parents used various types of punishment. A punishment is any painful or discomforting stimulus that reduces the frequency with which the behavior occurs. For example, I used to stay out past curfew frequently. To punish me, my parents would restrict me from going out with my friends. It was these .....

.... and become very skilled. Second, if Middle School students had their choice of courses, it would reflect on the faculty as well as other students, making it more enjoyable for everyone. When the student is choosing his or her courses, they are choosing it for the reason that they feel they could do well in this subject, and because they think the topic is interesting and enjoyable. If the student wants to learn, it will make it a lot easier for the teachers and other peers in the classroom. One out of every three students has a final grade below average. There are many reasons contributing to this, but the main fact that some .....

.... to see the life Cleofila wishes to have. When we are in pain, or are hurting we don't like to show it, because of our human nature we try to cover up our pain. An example of this is when the author is describing the telenovas, "But passion in its purest crystalline essence. The kind the books and songs and telenovelas describe when one finds, finally, the great love of one's life, and does whatever one can, must do, at whatever the cost (168)". Is this what Cleofila has? We as readers can see that she does not have this "passion." But Cleofila who is blinded by her own pain thinks that this is love. She has this image of lo .....

.... her. Inside was a dusty, dank desolate realm dominated by the presence of the crayon portrait of her father. Miss Emily was described as a small, fat woman in black, with a thin gold chain descending to her waist and vanishing into her belt, leaning on an ebony cane with a tarnished gold head. Her skeleton was small and spare: perhaps that was why what would have been merely plumpness in another was obesity in her. She looked bloated, like a body long submerged in motionless water, and of that pallid hue. Her eyes lost in the fatty ridges of her face, looked like two small pieces of coal pressed into a lump of dough (55). In .....

.... in the book. Not only did these things make him feel good, but there was significance as well. When not listening to records on the record player that Donna gave him, George was listening to one of three radio stations, KRZY, KROM, or KRZE. The two stations KRZY, and KRZE obviously represent "crazy," which George was, "Hey you're my ghost,--you've got to be crazy too"(254). The other station, KROM, represents "to roam," and roam is what George did in the Big Bopper's Cadillac El Dorado. Along with the radio stations and their on-air personalities, the music plays a big role in Jim Dodge's novel. The station KRZE bro .....

.... or heritage. In this case, Orwell was pictured as a leader because he was British and he worked for the British Empire. Readers are able to relate to the fact that he does not want to be humiliated in front of the Burmese. He declares, “Every white man's life in the East, was one long struggle not to be laughed at” (101). Orwell compares the elephant to the huge British Empire, and just as the elephant has lost control, he feels that when the white man turns tyrant it is his own freedom that he destroys (100). Secretly he hates the British Empire and is on the side of the Burmese (97). The elephant is equivalent to t .....

.... each other. The character Roz constantly runs into problems in the business world. “It’s complicated, being a woman boss. Women don’t look at you and think Boss. They look at you and think Woman, as in Just another one, like me, and where does she get off?” The female characters do not “come across as more emblematic than real.” as Timson suggests. Charis decides how her day is going to be by swinging a crystal above her head. This behavior reminds me of an acquaintance who once tried to lecture me on the power of ‘crystal vibrations’. This may be because AtwoodR .....
