James Joyce (1882-1941)
Eveline (1914)
She sat at the window watching the evening invade the avenue. Her head was leaned
against the window curtains and in her nostrils was the odour of dusty cretonne. She was
tired.
Few people passed. The man out of the last house passed on his way home; she heard
his footsteps clacking along the concrete pavement and afterwards crunching on the cinder
path before the new red houses. One time there used to be a field there in which they used to
play every evening with other people's children. Then a man from Belfast bought the field
and built houses in it—not like their little brown houses but bright brick houses with shining
roofs. The children of the avenue used to play together in that field—the Devines, the
Waters, the Dunns, little Keogh the cripple, she and her brothers and sisters. Ernest, however,
never played: he was too grown up. Her father used often to hunt them in out of the field
with his blackthorn stick; but usually little Keogh used to keep nix and call out when he saw
her father coming. Still they seemed to have been rather happy then. Her father was not so
bad then; and besides, her mother was alive. That was a long time ago; she and her brothers
and sisters were all grown up her mother was dead. Tizzie Dunn was dead, too, and the
Waters had gone back to England. Everything changes. Now she was going to go away like
the others, to leave her home.
Home! She looked round the room, reviewing all its familiar objects which she had
dusted once a week for so many years, wondering where on earth all the dust came from.
Perhaps she would never see again those familiar objects from which she had never dreamed
2
of being divided. And yet during all those years she had never found out the name of the
priest whose yellowing photograph hung on the wall above the broken harmonium beside the
coloured print of the promises made to Blessed Margaret Mary Alacoque. He had been a
school friend of her father. Whenever he showed the photograph to a visitor her father used
to pass it with a casual word:
“He is in Melbourne now.”
She had consented to go away, to leave her home. Was that wise? She tried to weigh
each side of the question. In her home anyway she had shelter and food; she had those whom
she had known all her life about her. O course she had to work hard, both in the house and at
business. What would they say of her in the Stores when they found out that she had run
away with a fellow? Say she was a fool, perhaps; and her place would be filled up by
advertisement. Miss Gavan would be glad. She had always had an edge on her, especially
whenever there were people listening.
“Miss Hill, don't you see these ladies are waiting?”
“Look lively, Miss Hill, please.”
She would not cry many tears at leaving the Stores.
But in her new home, in a distant unknown country, it would not be like that. Then
she would be married—she ...

Childhood To Adulthood: The Diary Of Anne Frank
Anne Frank 5 Paragraphs
The document tells the story of a couple, Mark and Emma, who move into an old mansion on Maple Street that has a reputation for being haunted. On their first day renovating the house, a fire breaks out. Mark arrives home to find the house engulfed in flames. The local fire brigade is able to put out the fire, but it seems the house may still have more surprises in store for the couple.
The document discusses several themes in Things Fall Apart including:
1) Gender roles which were very structured in traditional Igbo society, with women seen as the weaker sex but also bearing children, while men provided materially and showed prowess in battle.
2) Religion centered around nature gods and ancestral spirits who were consulted for decisions and served as judges, contrasting with Christianity's single God.
3) Respect and reputation being extremely important for men, gained through bravery, wrestling, and large yam harvests, with Okonkwo overly concerned about his reputation.
4) Family being a key unit based on mutual respect, reverence for past fathers, and unity, with defined roles of fathers defending honor
The chapter provides context for the upcoming Feast of the New Yam festival in the village. Okonkwo is stressed and takes out his anger on his second wife Ekwefi by beating her. Despite this, the festival celebrations go ahead as planned. The chapter then focuses on Okonkwo's daughter Ezinma and her inquisitive nature, as well as introducing the character of Obiageli and setting up the wrestling matches that will take place during the festival.
Okonkwo is a respected farmer and warrior in his village who fears being seen as weak like his father. He commits crimes out of this fear. When British colonizers arrive, bringing Christianity and foreign rule, they threaten Okonkwo's culture and masculinity. In a climax, Okonkwo kills a government official in protest but then commits suicide before facing arrest, showing the village's defeat by the colonizers.
The chapter provides background on Okonkwo's father, Unoka, who was lazy and always in debt. Despite having a poor father, Okonkwo works hard to achieve success through an agreement with a wealthy man to farm his land. However, a drought and flooding cause his crops to fail. Okonkwo has risen to be a respected man in his clan due to his hard work and strong will, but he is also prideful and harsh, as shown through his treatment of Ikemefuna, a boy living with his family.
The Village by the Sea is set in a small Indian fishing village called Thul located 14 km from Bombay (now Mumbai). The story follows Lila, a 13-year old girl who must care for her sick mother, two younger sisters, and manage the household due to her alcoholic father's inability to work. Her 12-year old brother Hari is the only person she can confide in. Struggling with poverty and their father's drinking, Hari decides to leave for Bombay in search of work. Alone, Lila does her best to keep the family together until help comes from an unexpected source. In the city, Hari finds work and friendship, but struggles with homesickness. Through his
The document discusses key properties of water such as its chemical formula, states of matter, freezing and boiling points, and role in life. It also defines solubility and saturated solutions, noting that solubility depends on temperature as water can dissolve more solute at higher temperatures. An example calculation is given to determine the solubility of potassium chloride in water at 60oC.
The history of atomic theory began in 600 BC when Thales discovered static electricity, and Democritus proposed the idea of atoms. In the 1800s, Dalton performed experiments leading to his atomic theory. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, discoveries were made about the electron and structure of the atom, including the nucleus. Elements are made of only one type of atom, while compounds contain different types of atoms joined together. Atoms are the smallest particle that can participate in chemical reactions.
Antígona desobedece la orden del rey Creonte de no enterrar el cuerpo de su hermano Polinices. Como castigo, Creonte la condena a morir enterrada viva. Sin embargo, Antígona se ahorca antes en la tumba. Al enterarse, el prometido de Antígona, Hemón, hijo de Creonte, también se suicida. Creonte luego se entera que su esposa Eurídice también se ha suicidado, dejándolo solo con su dolor y arrepentimiento.

Un imán es un elemento que atrae metales ferrosos. Se llama imán debido a que las primeras rocas magnéticas naturales se encontraron en la antigua región de Magnesia, en Turquía. Los polos de un imán son las zonas donde su fuerza magnética es más fuerte y pueden estar localizados en diferentes partes del imán. El magnetismo se explica por campos magnéticos y no es posible aislar un solo polo magnético ya que todos los trozos resultantes tendrían dos polos.

giggle and laugh, and Annemarie points out Sweden to Ellen, as her Uncle Henrik had
once pointed across the water and explained to Annemarie that the land visible from
the shore is the country of Sweden.
Cuando vuelven a la casa, la ansiedad del Mama es evidente. Ella desea saber si las
muchachas encontraron cualquier persona en la playa, pero la aseguran que que la
única muestra de la vida era el gatito Ellen tomó y trajo el hogar. Mamá insiste en que

8. There has been a death
As she drowses in bed the next morning, Annemarie hears Uncle Henrik go outside to
the barn with his milking pail. She rises without waking Ellen and heads to the kitchen,
where she finds Kirsti giving the kitten water from a bowl. Kirsti tells her she's decided
to name the kitten Thor, for the God of Thunder. Annemarie is amused by the name,
and happily surprised to find a fresh bowl of cream on the breakfast table. Her mother
explains that Henrik milks his cow, Blossom, every morning, and occasionally manages
to save some milk or some butter from being taken by the soldiers. Annemarie makes a
joke about the soldiers relocating butter like they are relocating Jews. They all force a
laugh to drive away the gloom, and when Ellen enters the.....

9. Why are you lying?
After supper, Annemarie heads out to the barn to have a private conversation with her
uncle. He is milking Blossom and being watched intently by The God of Thunder. He
smiles at her, but continues to milk silently. Annemarie breaks the silence to accuse
him and her mother of lying. In response, he asks her how brave she is. She admits to
not being very brave at all, but Henrik says he thinks if the time ever came for bravery,
she would be very brave indeed. However, he tells her, it is easier to be brave if you
don't know all the facts. She thinks back to the day the soldiers stopped her on the
road, and realizes she hadn't known all the facts then, or she would have been a lot

10. Let us open the Casket
Once everyone is assembled, Henrik leaves for his boat. Annemarie looks at the group
assembled in her living room. Among them there is a young mother nursing a baby with
her husband at her side, and an old man who dozes alone on the couch. Mama tells
her she can go to bed, but Annemarie chooses to stay downstairs with the Rosens and
the others. She dozes off in the rocking chair, only to be woken by a familiar, loud
pounding at the door. It is a German soldier, demanding to know why so many people
are gathered at the house this night. Mama explains that everyone has gathered for the
death of Great Aunt Birte.
Suspicious, the soldiers push their way into the house. One of them addresses
Annemarie, asking who has died......

Una vez que cada uno es montado, Henrik se marcha para su barco. Annemarie mira

madre le dice ella puede acostarse, pero Annemarie decide quedarse abajo con el
Rosens y los demás. Ella se queda dormido en la mecedora, sólo ser despertado por

11. Will we see you again soon,Peter?
The casket is filled with warm clothes. Peter dispenses them to the assembled group,
explaining that their journey will be very cold. The jacket he gives Ellen is patched and
worn, and when she sees it, Ellen realizes just how much her life has changed.
Resolutely, she puts it on without a word of complaint. Mama wraps the baby in one of
Kirsti's sweaters. Peter insists to the baby's frightened parents that he must give her a
few drops from the medicine bottle he has in his pocket. Meanwhile, Inge gives
everyone a package of the food Annemarie had helped her prepare earlier in the
evening. Then Peter gives Mr. Rosen a package to carry to Henrik, telling Mr. Rosen
only that its contents are vitally important. Peter announces that he will lead.....

sumamente importante. Peter anuncia que él conducirá.....
12. Where was mama?
Mr. Rosen slips on the loose step outside the kitchen door, and Mama warns them to
feel each step carefully with their feet to avoid tripping over roots or stones in the
darkness. Annemarie can see how important her mother's role is because only Mama
knows the area well enough to lead people through it in the darkness. The Rosens say
goodbye to Annemarie; Ellen promises to come back one day.
After Mama leaves, Annemarie waits in the now-empty living room. She calculates it
will take a half hour for Mama to lead the Rosens to the harbor where Uncle Henrik
keeps his boat. Coming back alone, she might move quicker. It's 2:30 a.m. now, and
Annemarie expects her mother should be back no later than 3:30. She thinks of her
Papa, waiting alone.....

oscuridad. El Rosens dice ¡adiós! a Annemarie; Ellen promete volver un día. Después
de que la Madre se marcha, Annemarie espera en la sala de estar ahora vacía. Ella
cuenta esto tomará media hora para la Madre para conducir al Rosens al puerto donde
el Tío Henrik guarda(mantiene) su barco. Volviendo solo, ella podría moverse más
rápido. Es 2:30 de la mañana ahora, y Annemarie espera que su madre debería ser
atrás no más tarde que 3:30. Ella piensa en su Papá, esperando solo.....
13. Run! As fast as you can!
Annemarie runs to her mother. Mama tells her she's okay and warns her to keep her
voice down. Hurrying back along the path in the dark after safely delivering the Rosens
to Henrik, Inge had stumbled on a root and broken her ankle in her haste to get back to
her daughters. Inge has been crawling along the path for an hour. Now, with her
daughter's support, she is able to stand and walk to the house. She tells Annemarie
she'll need her help washing the leaves and grass off herself before calling the doctor
to tell him she tripped on the stairs inside the house. Inge assures her daughter that the
boat will sail soon, and her friends will be safe, but as they reach the kitchen door
where Mr. Rosen had.....

puerta de cocina donde el Sr. Rosen tenía.....
14. On the dark Path
Annemarie realizes how cold the dawn is as she hurries along the path. She does her
best to run, but it is difficult in the still-dark dawn to run without falling. She tells herself
the story of Little Red Riding-Hood to comfort herself in the dark forest. She knows the
woods well and is usually unafraid. These woods are not filled with dangerous animals
like wolves, but they might be filled with German soldiers. At a fork in the path, she
chooses the path that winds deeper into the woods, rather than risk being seen running
along the road to the harbor where the other path leads. As the light increases, she
picks up speed. She's nearly at the end of the Red Riding-Hood tale, and the harbor is
just around the bend......

15. My dogs smell Meat!
Annemarie thinks immediately of her mother's advice. "'If anyone stops you, you must
pretend to be nothing more than a silly little girl"' (p. 113). She remembers the soldiers
who stopped her, Ellen, and Kirsti on the street. She and Ellen had stared fearfully, but
Kirsti had been too innocent to feel fear. Annemarie draws on that memory and
attempts to act just like Kirsti. She wipes the fear from her face and wishes the soldiers
a cheerful good morning. They ask what she's doing here, and she tells them she's
taking her uncle, who is a fisherman, his lunch. They ask why her he doesn't just eat
5. fish. She giggles as Kirsti might and explains that her uncle hates to eat fish because
he's so sick of the smell since he's around.....

Ella recuerda a los soldados quien pararon ella, Ellen, y Kirsti sobre la calle. Ella y
Ellen habían mirado fijamente terriblemente, pero Kirsti había sido demasiado inocente
para sentir el miedo. Annemarie utiliza aquella memoria e intenta actuar justo como
Kirsti. Ella limpia el miedo de su cara y desea los buena días alegres a los soldados.
Ellos preguntan lo que ella hace aquí, y ella les dice ella toma a su tío, quien es un
pescador, su almuerzo. Ellos preguntan por qué ella él solamente(justo) no come el

el pescado porque él está tan harto del olor ya que él está alrededor.....
16. I will tell you just a Little.
Dinner that night is a cheerful affair, with Uncle Henrik teasing Annemarie about the
fact that she milked Blossom herself. He promises to show her how to do it properly.
When Annemarie had returned home from the harbor that morning, she found a note
from her mother saying the doctor was taking Inge to the local hospital, and that she
would be back soon. With all the chaos, everyone had forgotten about Blossom. When
Annemarie heard her lowing uncomfortably, she had gone to the barn and done her
best to milk the cow. Kirsti wonders when Ellen is coming back; the family has told her
that the Rosens came by last night and picked her up. Mama distracts her by asking for
her help, while Annemarie and Uncle Henrik head to the barn.....
Traduccion:
La cena aquella noche es un asunto alegre, con el Tío Henrik que embroma a
Annemarie sobre el hecho que ella chupó la Flor ella misma. Él promete mostrarle

Inge al hospital local, y que ella sería atrás pronto. Con todo el caos, cada uno había
olvidado de la Flor. Cuando Annemarie oyó sus mugidos incómodamente, ella había
ido al granero y había hecho todo lo posible chupar la vaca. Kirsti se pregunta cuando
Ellen vuelve; la familia le ha dicho que el Rosens adquirió anoche y la recogió. La
madre la distrae por la petición de su ayuda, mientras Annemarie y el Tío Henrik se
dirigen al granero.....
17. All this Long Time.
Uncle Henrik was right. The war ends two years later when Annemarie is twelve. All of
Denmark celebrates in the streets, at least those citizens who are still there. Many
apartments in Annemarie's neighborhood are empty because their Jewish occupants
have long since fled. The remaining citizens of Denmark had tended to the abandoned
homes for two years, dusting the furniture and watering the plants, as Mama had done
for the Rosens. Now these same neighbors enter the empty apartments to hang
symbols of freedom in the windows.
6. The joy of this day is tempered with some painful memories, however. Peter is dead.
He was captured and executed by the Germans. The night before he was shot, he had
written a letter to the Johansens, telling them of his love for them, and that.....
Traduccion:
El Tío Henrik tuvo razón. La guerra se termina dos años más tarde cuando Annemarie

ciudadanos quien están todavía allí. Muchos apartamentos en la vecindad de

ciudadanos restantes de Dinamarca habían tendido a las casas abandonadas durante
dos años, quitando el polvo sobre los muebles y bebiendo las plantas, como la Madre
había hecho por el Rosens. Ahora estos mismos vecinos entran en los apartamentos
vacíos para colgar los símbolos de libertad en las ventanas. La alegría de este día es
atenuada con algunas memorias dolorosas, pese a todo. Peter está muerto. Él fue
capturado y ejecutado por los Alemanes. La noche antes de que él fuera pegado un

In an Afterword to the reader, the author describes the research process she
underwent prior to writing Number the Stars, and delineates for the reader which
events in the story were based on actual history. First off, she credits her friend,

and who helped Lois Lowry understand what the experience had been like from a
child's point of view. The daily deprivation, the lack of food, clothing, electricity, etc.,
had all been part of Annelise's experiences. It was from Annelise that the author
learned how courageous the Danish people had been under the leadership of their
beloved king, Christian X, who did indeed like to ride out alone to greet his people. The
story of the boy who told the.....

había sido del punto de vista de un niño. La privación diaria, la carencia de alimento, la
ropa, la electricidad, etc., toda había sido la parte de las experiencias de Annelise. Era
de Annelise el que el autor aprendió como valeroso la gente danesa había sido bajo el
mando de su rey querido, Christian X, quien realmente de verdad gustó sobrellevar
solo para saludar a su gente. La historia del muchacho quien contó el .....
Characters
Annemarie Johansen:
7. Annemarie Johansen is a ten-year-old girl trying to understand the increasingly
complex world around her. Her young life in Denmark had been filled with the normal
preoccupations of peacetime until three years ago, when German soldiers arrived and
her sister, Lise, was killed. There is much Annemarie is not told by her family at this
time. She was seven when Lise was killed and is twelve before learning that Lise was
killed at a meeting of the Danish Resistance, to which both Lise and her fiancy, Peter,
belonged. As the book opens, Annemarie knows none of this, because her parents try
to preserve the normalcy of her childhood during these troubled times.
However, Annemarie has begun to grow up, forced by circumstances to receive a
crash course on the ways of war. She is old.....
Objects/Places
Copenhagen
A gorgeous, historic city in Denmark, during World War II, Copenhagen stood as one of
the last remaining centers of culture where people could travel to and enjoy, assuming
they were able to obtain the requisite travel papers from the German government. The
city's spirit of freedom was such that, even under German occupation, life remained
much closer to normal than in other German-occupied countries. Certainly the king's
voluntary surrender prevented much death and destruction, but the country never really
surrendered in spirit. Despite public appearances, Copenhagen remained a place
friendly to freedom and freedom fighters.
Uncle Henrik's House
The house on the coast of Denmark where the Johansen's take Ellen to hide her from
the German soldiers, this house had once belonged to Annemarie's maternal
grandparents. Both her mother and Uncle Henrik were born and.....
Setting
Number the Stars is set in 1943 in Copenhagen. King Christian X of Denmark
surrendered his land to the German invaders in 1940 because Denmark's army was
small and any attempt to match military might with the Nazis would have resulted in
destruction and suffering. Even after Copenhagen is occupied by the Nazis, the king
continues his habit of riding his horse through the streets of the city every morning,
without benefit of a bodyguard. When a Nazi soldier asks a young boy where the king's
bodyguards are, the boy replies that all.....
Social Sensitivity
Number the Stars is a story that honestly approaches the tragedy of the Holocaust and
uses the events of the war to show humanity's potential for courage and decency. In
the weeks following the Jewish High Holidays in 1943, nearly seven thousand of
Denmark's Jews were smuggled across the sea to Sweden. Lowry does not talk about
the Nazi concentration camps or the Jews' struggles elsewhere in.....
Literary Qualities
In Number the Stars Lowry uses small details to illuminate larger events. A scene as
mundane as Mrs. Johansen and Mrs. Rosen sitting and sipping from cups together is
8. transformed when the reader realizes that the two mothers are actually drinking hot
water flavored with herbs. There is no coffee, tea, or sugar in wartime Copenhagen,
and this shortage is just one of many revealed matter-of-factly through Lowry's prose.
The children play with paper dolls cut from old magazines; the men who work with Mr.
Johansen roll dried weeds in paper in order to smoke; Mr. Rosen corrects school
papers at night by candlelight, because there is no electricity; Kirsti gets new shoes,
but they are ugly ones, made out of fish skin rather than leather.
Told in the third person, Number the.....
Themes
Truth
Truth is a common value stressed in children's literature. As a society, we generally
agree that we want to teach our young people the value of honesty. Lois Lowry's
approach to teaching about truth is quite different from the typical kids' book, and in
some ways, more mature. She speaks to the grey areas in life, where the truth may
best be served by lying. The most clear-cut example of this is the Danish Resistance
members' interactions with the German soldiers. Peter, Mama, and Uncle Henrik all lie
to the soldiers and take pride in their courage for having lied so well. In this way, the
adult characters in Number the Stars teach young Annemarie that truth is about
integrity and standing up for what one knows is right, even if it involves lying. If.....
Themes and Characters
Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen is the protagonist of Number the Stars; all the
action of the book is seen through her eyes. Annemarie can remember a time when
Nazis in shiny boots were not standing on every street corner; she remembers "the
music and the brightly colored lights, the carousel and ice cream" at the Tivoli Gardens.
Throughout the book, Annemarie worries that she will not have the courage to stand up
to the Nazis. When she is tested, however, she instinctively acts bravely.
The Johansens are a close-knit, loving family. Mr. and Mrs. Johansen have lost one
daughter to the Nazis, yet they continue to fight for the Resistance. Like the parents in
many of Lowry's books, they are loving and wise, and the reader can see their
influence on Annemarie's actions. Annemarie's five-year-old sister.....

Point of View
The point of view is strictly Annemarie Johansen's, but it is not told in the first person.
The story is told through a third-person narrative, but the narrator is not omniscient and
at no time intrudes into the story. We learn what Annemarie learns as she learns it.
Since the adults in her life try to protect her from finding out too much about the gravity
of their situation, the reader, like Annemarie, can only watch and pay attention for clues
in the hopes of figuring it all out. Fortunately the author is aware of how perceptive
children can be, and so, despite the fact that the adults are less than forthcoming with
the little girl, both Annemarie and the reader see enough to grasp the truth of her friend
Ellen's peril, and.....
