Hatchet - Comparison Essay
In this essay I will compare the differences and similarities of events in the book “Hatchet” and the movie “A Cry in the Wild”. I realized that the book and movie had many differences and also some similarities. In my essay I will compare some events that happened to the main character Brian. I’m going to compare the differences on how the rescue plane came to save Brian, the animals that attacked him and the food he ate while he was stranded in Canada.
When I read the book and saw the movie I found many differences between the events in the book Hatchet and the events in the movie “A Cry in the Wild.” In the book when the plane crashed in the wilderness the rescue plane came after he found food, a shelter to live, and made a fire. When the rescue plane came, Brian ran to make a fire sending signals in the sky allowing them to see him. In the movie the rescue plane came the same day as the plane crashed and he didn’t have a fire or make a shelter to live, so he screamed loudly hoping they could hear him or see him but the plane turned away. dhcvhjadcbhj bhhj gjb hv hk mbn bhj hk jjj bhj bhk b k bjk hk bj j hj hj hj hjb nhb hjb hb gbv h bhy hy vg vgh v jhzbsi cbniydbvkasgd iuae kjbdkb hdenb hjsbn hjsbndjfb hdsfh njkbgofbdkjsb dkn kbdskj bjlkbslj bdjksb jkdfsb jkdsb kjbdjk bdkjb jkbdkjb kjdjkvjkefnvkjfsjkb jkdffkjb kjbkjb

    He’d found turtle eggs and buried them so he could eat them later. Then a raccoon found them and ate them causing him to resort to catching and eating fish. Before building the fire, he got poked by a porcupine. That made him have to learn how to take out the quills so he wouldn’t get an infection. Eventually he makes his way back to where the plane crashed and discovers a survival pack, .22 rifle, and a transmitter. He attempts to make a distress call with the transmitter but thinks it’s broken since he doesn’t know how to use it. A passing plane hears his distress call and rescues…

After being the survivor of a horrific plane crash, the main character, Brian finds himself alone in the Canadian Wilderness and depends solely on himself for 54 days! This was a stunning achievement, and through it all Brian went through numerous changes that molded him into a strong human being. There are numerous examples in the novel that show how Brian changed, but two of the biggest aha moments were when he learned how to make fire with his hatchet and his bare hands, and the moment he realized he needed to be a powerful boy and fight for survival.…

    What we want to find out is that does the angle of blades on a wind turbine affects how much energy is going to be produced. The reason we feel that we that this would be a good topic to research is because wind turbines are starting to become more and more popular. Wind turbines have been used for many years for little and big things? They have been used on small farms and recently they have also been used on many large wind farms. They can vary in size depending on how much energy you need to produce. Depending on the size they can’t be too close because they can be very loud. The type of blade is also crucial to how the windmill will work. There are many different types of blades. For example: wood, metal, fiberglass and more. How many blades that are on the wind turbine will also affect how much energy the turbine will produce. There can be one to three blades. The way that the blades face is also another factor. The blades can be (as most people see them) on a horizontal axis, or (as most people don’t see them) on a vertical axis.…
