    • 3 Pages

    Lost in an Upside-Down House I knew Wonderworks would be exhilarating‚ but I had no idea how exhilarating it would truly be. It was mid-day in 2009 and my family had traveled to the Wonderworks attraction. The day had been extremely fun thus far‚ but the day quickly went from fun to scary. I was climbing on the climbing wall‚ and was all smiles. “Yay! I’m having so much fun today! Thank you mom and dad!” I screamed out‚ expecting to hear the usual‚ “you’re welcome‚” response‚ but concerned‚ I

    Clemmie‚ she felt cosy and dry. As snug as a bug‚ in a rug‚ with a pug who wanted a hug. Inside the van‚ it was a tight fit‚ yet all five of them managed to squeeze onto the padded benches in the back. At the end of the bench sat Mosaic‚ because Doctor Pax had put him in charge of opening the trunk. A squall of rain broke the silence as it buffeted the side of the van‚ although‚ at one stage‚ Clemmie thought the others might have heard the thump of her heart. Ba boom! Ba boom! Ba boom!

    his feet. Arthur had a small smirk on his face as if he’d heard the comment and Fredrick wasn’t entirely sure how to take the king pleasure in his discomfort. He was a knight of Camelot now‚ a place he’d never aspired to. His fellows who really knew him would do the same when they found out. "Now‚ take your place beside Lady Guinevere. You’ll remain her personal guard with no other duty than to protect her in my absence." Well‚ that didn’t sound too onerous. It was what he’d been doing already.

    The Birthmark Short Story

    • 292 Words
    • 2 Pages

    I chose this source from Encyclopedia‚ because I think it best relates to the subject from the short story “The BirthMark”. In this source‚ it does talk much about the Age of Enlightenment‚ not only that but the feud between science and religion. For one when there is two sides‚ just like in the short story‚ the article describes what cost it took to take one side. As in the short story‚ the wife didn’t want to get rid of her birthmark until her husband’s influence spread onto her to take the other

    The muskrat sold cologne from door to door. He had a vague sense of hope for the day his black briefcase of bottles would cease to rattle and leak. He walked from door to door‚ street to street‚ home to home. The skunk flicked him a pity scent. The chipmunk despised “such worldly vanities.” One whiff—the ancient frog croaked on the spot.
