CAN-CAN

The text is head-lined CAN-CAN.
The author of the text is Arturo Vivante. ARTURO VIVANTE was born in Rome and grew up in Italy, England, and Canada. He earned a medical doctorate from Rome University in 1949, but left his medical practice in the mid-1950s when his short stories began to be published. Now he lives in the United States where he has been a fuul-time writer for over thirty years. He has published two novels “A googly babe” (1951) and “Doctor Giovanni” (1969), as well as several volumes of short stories, such as The french girls of killini (1967) and Run to the waterfull (1979). This text is about one family where the head of the family i.e the husband was going to betray her wife. When he told a lie to his wife about his intention of having a drive, his wife being jealous in subtle way but very quiete and funny, doing can-can was seeing off her husbund. He was very surprised watching the wife’s behavour, because he had imagined all these in other way: expected her to do something uninteresting and unattractive such as washing or sewing but not doing can-can. That’s why being with the lover he was thinking of his wife. This text touches upon the problems concerning family problems such as disloyalty. And I think it wants to provide the reader that they should be interesting and look well for their husbands and wives. These can reduce betrayal, dishonesty and unfaithfulness. The atmosphere of the text is funy but only in outside, in inside it is very grievy. Durin the event it’s getting more stressed. The text is devided into three parts. It begins with the husband’s lie. His intention having a drive. But of course insipite of the driva he was going to meet Sarah in cofe, then going to a house on a lake his wife knew nothing about. This part is also included a very importanat moment thanks to which then the whole text developed. It is the moment when the wife was seeing off her husband, her quiete and cheerful behavour,

First, in a sentence bound to be let down, it tells the reader that we will be disappointed if we do it continuously. Second, erratic outbursts, it is really interesting because the writer put word outbursts after erratic. This part shows the reader about the personality of the husband.

    There are many essentials to surviving in life. After the basic necessities such as water, food, intimacy, and shelter are met, finding your personal identity is the most significant to the dynamics of life. Personal identity can be defined as the distinguishing character by which an individual is infinitively recognizable or known. Personal identity makes a person who he or she is to be defined as. According to Greek philosopher Aristotle, identity is a concept that refers to the aspect of existence; therefore, the aspect of existence is something in particular, with specific characteristics. Finding who we truly are can aid in loving, identifying, and accepting ourselves. Notary short stories, “What You Pawn I Will Redeem” by Sherman Alexie, “Hollow” by Breece D'J Pancake, and “Until Gwen” by Dennis Lehane are great exemplifications of how the struggle with identity hurt or harm the develop of an individual’s character.…

    Godwin opens her short story with an opening sentence that confuses the mood of the parable and confounds the reader. “Once upon a time there was a wife and mother one too many times” (39). Those first four words, the quint-essential opening of every story book fantasy that invokes beautiful imagery of princesses and green forests with colorful gardens and carefree animals and always has a way of overcoming great obstacles to endorse a long and happy life, opens the reader’s mind to a cheerful theme. The next six words present an “ah” moment, eliciting the feeling of comfort and caring that a wife and mother provides. She has extracted emotions of love and adoration that many of us endear with our mothers to passion and intimacy towards our wives. Ms. Godwin has, in the first ten words of her first sentence, devoted the reader to the main character without even mentioning anything about her. We do not know who she is, we do not know where she is, we do not know how she is, but we want to know.…

    Does our outer appearance segregate everyone else from each other? Film director Tim Burton uses low key lighting, low angle, and music in order to express various dark childhood and gothic cinematic experiences. In his 2005 film Corpse Bride, 2005 film Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and 1990 film Edward Scissorhands, Tim Burton uses low key lighting and flashback to achieve the effect of nostalgic moments along with a gothic environment. Tim Burton gained his inspirations in his films from his childhood when he watched TV and imagined making movies of his own. In his films, he demonstrates that being different from everybody else will determine how you will be accepted by society; however, when people judge what’s on the outside of people, they never take the time to look at themselves and see that they are no different from that person they differ from others.…
