The running speed starts slowly but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start

Hanna Curlee I’m going to have to disagree with you there. 1) the wife was completely misunderstood she wasn’t provocative she was just extremely lonely cause she wasn’t allowed to talk to anyone and 2) she didn’t know about lennie accidental killing animals because of getting frustrated she thought he was fairly normal so how on earth would she have known freaking out was going to make him even more stressed? Lennie was the only person that didn’t treat her like she was a slut so she felt safe around him. That’s why she she felt comfortable having lennie touch her hair in the first place

@nadiakaramat84564 жыл бұрын
Hanna Curlee all of that is true yes but she couldn’t have possibly have completely understand that he was truly mentally disabled and couldn’t comprehend what to do in that kind of situation.

In the first paragraph, Steinbeck uses adverbs and adjectives to convey exactly how the nature is in that point of time. Some examples would be: “deep,” and “green.” The use of these two words together show how the water in the river is moving, “running” if you will... if you won't, for any reason, that’s ok too. In the next sentence, Steinbeck uses the adjectives: “warm” and “yellow” separately, using warm to express how the water’s temperature is, ie. It could be cold, but it is not, it is warm, not hot, not room temperature, but warm. Meanwhile using “yellow” to describe how the sand is, it is not green, blue, red, orange, purple, pink, brown, black, white, grey, silver, or bronze, it is yellow!

The effect of this is to make the reader truly feel that they have accomplished something and now they have some new knowledge about how the water moves, what its temperature is like, and how the colour sand it ran across was like.

@jammiejams49414 жыл бұрын
ok. this is a nice analysis, you’ve got the basic points right. however, you use lots of unnecessary phrases/ words and it’s obvious you’re trying to make your word count higher. for example; you don’t have to list all the colours - that’s irrelevant as you’ve already used the quote “yellow”. similarly, the tangent about the temperature is pointless when you’ve used already the quote to describe it. also “if you will... if you won’t for any reason, that’s ok too.” what? that doesn’t make sense and you don’t need to say that. furthermore, you’ve quoted the word “running” but that word wasn’t used, it was “runs” i don’t want to be rude but the whole part about it the effect on the reader makes no sense. to be honest, where you’ve used so many words, i can’t really tell what you’re trying to say. i’m really sorry and i know this is harsh but i felt like i had to say something.
@jammiejams49414 жыл бұрын
a different way of analysing it would be: in the first paragraph, steinbeck uses adverbs and adjectives to convey the liveliness of nature. This is done through describing the river as “deep and “green”. combined with the verb “runs” this makes the river feel alive as “green” is associated with life and “runs” shows it’s moving quickly. furthermore, the sand is described as “yellow” which has connotations of being energetic and happy. This pathetic fallacy makes the reader feel excited, as the river is being shown as alive and compelling, setting up the rest of the book.

I love Steinbeck. Maybe having to analyse stuff to a deadline kills some of the magic of it but if kids can't appreciate on some level what an amazing story and set of characters they've got here, then there's something wrong with them.

Here is a useful tip: Turn it up to x1.25, it will be quick at first, but will get slower in a minute or so. Then turn it up to x1.5, also will be quick at first but will get slower in a little over a minute. And then I get to x1.75, which eventually becomes the perfect speed!

Idkwhat made me think about this book but back when I was a sophomore in high school in 07 or 08 I was listening to this book on tape in my high school English class and just died laughing at this guy's southern accent. I was laughing so hard and uncontrollably that the teacher thought I was on drugs. I probably hit the bong that morning, but it wasn't the green that had me laughing that day. good times

I just ran across it. I've seen a coupla or three film adaptations -- might have even read the book decades ago. But I have never been so deeply moved by this classic -- hats off to the narrator. And of course to John Steinbeck. I had just finished a three-day listen of Stephen King's "The Green Mile" when I began "Of Mice and Men," which I finished in one afternoon. "The Green Mile" was quite enjoyable, but when I started Steinbeck, I felt like I had stepped into an open meadow after days of whacking through a dense jungle with a machete. I guess that's the distinction between a good writer and a great one.

The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20-meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start
