1. The title directly reveals the character’s interest in time and its

interplay with place. These ideas are further developed in the first

paragraph of the story, when we see that Gilbert is keenly aware

that time seems to move more quickly in some places than others.

Gilbert’s interest in the interplay between space and time is one of

his primary motivations.

2. Words used to describe time include tyrant, crawled, whipped,

eternity, flashing instant. These descriptions suggest that time—or

at least our perception of it—is imposed upon us and entirely

outside our control. It is part of the nature of humanity to be caught

in time.

3. Einstein claimed that time was similar to space, implying that one

might travel back in time. At the beginning of the story this is an

interesting idea to Gilbert, but his father’s death further increases

its appeal. If Gilbert could travel backward in time, he might be

with his father—and his mother-once more.

4. Gilbert feels trapped in and by time. His observation that the rails

limit the children’s movements through space helps reiterate his

understanding of time. It also sets up a clear point of reference for

the following section in which the bounds of both space and time

fall away.

5. Gilbert is still struggling to come to terms with his father’s death.

He wants to see his father again, and in these lines we see his

belief that this may be possible.

6. Symbol: handcar; What it represents (in outer ovals of web):

freedom, power, self-directed movement, hope, determination. The

handcar symbolizes the children’s newfound ability first to

determine their own direction in space from just two choices and

later to determine their own direction through both time and space

from an unlimited list of possibilities. The handcar symbolizes

freedom from the bounds of both space and time.

Read the excerpt from part 2 of zeitoun. zeitoun woke with the sun and crawled out of his tent. the day was bright, and as far as he could see in any direction the city was underwater. . he could only think of judgment day, of noah and forty days of rain. and yet it was so quiet, so still. nothing moved. he sat on the roof and scanned the horizon, looking for any person, any animal or machine moving. nothing. as he did his morning prayers, a helicopter broke the silence, shooting across the treetops and heading downtown. why does the author include the details of zeitoun’s morning? to suggest the hopelessness of zeitoun’s situation to illustrate the solitary existence endured by survivors to establish zeitoun’s dedication to the rituals of his faith to reveal the military’s attempts at assistance

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky

With crack on crack of thunder, zeus let fly a bolt against the ship, a direct hit, so that she bucked, in reeking fumes of sulphur, and all the men were flung into the sea. they came up 'round the wreck, bobbing a while like petrels on the waves. no more seafaring homeward for these, no sweet day of return; the god had turned his face from them. –the odyssey, homer read the passage. then, identify the theme that is supported by the passage. most ships cannot survive a terrible thunderstorm. the ocean is an angry beast that will tame any who try to control it. the gods have the power to control human destiny. men are willing to die to eat the delicious cattle of the gods.
