Introduction: An interesting thing about literature is same work can give different meaning, different emotions as per reader's choice. Harry Potter is such an example. Children find it adventurous magical story, Some may call it fantasy and say it has nothing to do with reality while some will find serious issues of real life clearly presented in the novel. The task below is part of that process of digging deep from what is on surface. Here first is film worksheet where questions are given. We supposed to find web sources for it, finding key arguments and then give examples and explanation of how that those things can be found in the film. Then three topics are described with some details and pictures and in the end self evaluation is done. No Topics Web sources arguments Illustrations 1.

The narrator narrates the story from prison. He begins by describing how kind he was in childhood. he had many pets. At young age he marries a woman who also loves pets. In their household they have a number of animals, including a large and beautiful black cat named Pluto. Although his wife often refers to the superstition that black cats are actually disguised witches, the narrator is particularly fond of the unusually intelligent cat. In subsequent years, the narrator becomes increasingly moody and irritable due to alcoholism, and he begins to verbally abuse and threaten his wife as well as his pets. He remains less harsh to Pluto until one day, when he comes home drunk and, imagining that Pluto is avoiding him, he seizes the cat, which bites him on the hand in fear. In response, the narrator loses control and cuts one of Pluto's eyes out with a pen-knife. After sobering up the next morning, he feels a modicum of remorse but returns to drinking. The cat recovers, but it conspic

If anything the narrator begins to idolize Tillford placing him, as he does Sunstreak. The narrator begins to like Tillford more than he does his own father.

Conscience is instinct bred in the house,  Feeling and Thinking propagate the sin  By an unnatural breeding in and in.  I say, Turn it out doors,  Into the moors.  I love a life whose plot is simple,  And does not thicken with every pimple,  A soul so sound no sickly conscience binds it,  That makes the universe no worse than 't finds it.  I love an earnest soul,  Whose mighty joy and sorrow  Are not drowned in a bowl,  And brought to life to-morrow;  That lives one tragedy,  And not seventy;  A conscience worth keeping;  Laughing not weeping;  A conscience wise and steady,  And forever ready;  Not changing with events,  Dealing in compliments;  A conscience exercised about  Large things, where one may doubt.  I love a soul not all of wood,  Predestinated to be good,  But true to the backbone  Unto itself alone,  And false to none;  Born to its own affairs,  Its own joys and own cares;  By whom the work which God begun  Is finished, and not undone; 

Why should I keep holiday,  When other men have none?  Why but because when these are gay,  I sit and mourn alone.  And why when mirth unseals all tongues  Should mine alone be dumb?  Ah! late I spoke to silent throngs,  And now their hour is come. Compensation is a very short poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The poem seems a death poem. Poet says that why should he keep holiday when other men are working. He says that when other are happy, he is sitting alone and mourning. Other people are talking joyfully but poet is dumb. In the end poet wants to talk with silent crowd to say that now their hour is come.

Little thinks, in the field, yon red-cloaked clown,  Of thee from the hill-top looking down;  The heifer that lows in the upland farm,  Far-heard , lows not thine ear to charm;  The sexton, tolling his bell at noon,  Deems not that great Napoleon  Stops his horse, and lists with delight,  Whilst his files sweep round yon Alpine height;  Nor knowest thou what argument  Thy life to thy neighbor's creed has lent.  All are needed by each one;  Nothing is fair or good alone.  I thought the sparrow's note from heaven,  Singing at dawn on the alder bough;  I brought him home, in his nest, at even;  He sings the song, but it pleases not now,  For I did not bring home the river and sky; —  He sang to my ear, — they sang to my eye.  The delicate shells lay on the shore;  The bubbles of the latest wave  Fresh pearls to their enamel gave;  And the bellowing of the savage sea  Greeted their safe escape to me.  I wiped away the weeds and foam,  I fetched my sea-bo

I think awhile of Love, and while I think,  Love is to me a world,  Sole meat and sweetest drink,  And close connecting link  Tween heaven and earth.  I only know it is, not how or why,  My greatest happiness;  However hard I try,  Not if I were to die,  Can I explain.  I fain would ask my friend how it can be,  But when the time arrives,  Then Love is more lovely  Than anything to me,  And so I'm dumb.  For if the truth were known, Love cannot speak,  But only thinks and does;  Though surely out 'twill leak  Without the help of Greek,  Or any tongue.  A man may love the truth and practise it,  Beauty he may admire,  And goodness not omit,  As much as may befit  To reverence.  But only when these three together meet,  As they always incline,  And make one soul the seat,  And favorite retreat,  Of loveliness;  When under kindred shape, like loves and hates  And a kindred nature,  Proclaim us to be mates,  Exposed to equal fates  Eternally;  A

Nine-year-old Claudia and ten-year-old Frieda MacTeer live in Lorain, Ohio, with their parents. The MacTeers take in a boarder, Henry Washington, and also a young girl namedPecola. Pecola’s father has tried to burn down his family’s house, and Claudia and Frieda feel sorry for her. Pecola loves Shirley Temple, believing that whiteness is beautiful and that she is ugly. Pecola moves back in with her family, and her life is difficult. Her father drinks, her mother is distant, and the two of them often beat one another. Her brother, Sammy, frequently runs away. Pecola believes that if she had blue eyes, she would be loved and her life would be transformed. Meanwhile, she continually receives confirmation of her own sense of ugliness—the grocer looks right through her when she buys candy, boys make fun of her, and a light-skinned girl, Maureen, who temporarily befriends her makes fun of her too. She is wrongly blamed for killing a boy’s cat and is called a “nasty little black bitch” by h
