...life type of background. There were trees, a river, plenty of green plants and one cloud that was going by. To the average reader, they would take this information and see it just as how it was, just the scenery that the author wanted his story to take place in. In this English class and the one I have previously taken, I have learned that there is usually a reason that authors chose the scenery and the other words that they choose. In class we discussed and started explaining how things that were used in the scenery could also be used to show the different views the couple was having on abortion. When Hemingway is saying that the one side of the crossroads was a brown, dry, lifeless looking hillside it could be him showing that that is how life would be without having this child and going through with the abortion. Her life would be just very clean and not have as many things that would be going on. it was not the prettiest of views, especially not exactly what the woman wanted for herself. On the other hand, the other side of the crossroads there was another view. One could say this would be a way of showing how life would be if they were to have this baby. This side showed a side that was full of life and other beautiful things. It had a river, trees, and plenty of green plants. When they use the color green that can stand for something. I have learned that green can be used to symbolize growth. Growth would be a significant part in their lives because they would...

...during autumn as a warning for trees –and many other organisms- that winter is coming. Many trees lose their leaves; but before that is done the green color of the leaves turns into yellow, red, and orange. These changes do not happen randomly; behind it there is a transformation of the pigments in leaves. One of the main pigments in leaves is chlorophyll and it absorbs the red and blue light from sunlight that falls on leaves; hence, the leaves reflect the "green light" and that is why leaves appear to be green. The chlorophyll is part of a bigger structure called chloroplasts. Photosynthesis, a process in which plants transform solar energy into chemical energy, takes place in the chloroplast; furthermore, it is thanks to this chemical energy that plats produce seeds, grow and flower. However, chlorophyll is not a stable compound because sunlight causes it to decompose; hence, plants have to synthesize it continuously. Nevertheless, this "synthesis" requires sunlight and warm temperatures and that is the reason why it is scarce during autumn. Carotene is another pigment found in plants; it absorbs blue and blue-green light and hence the light reflected from it appears to be yellow. Carotene is found in the chloroplasts of many plants and when it is paired with chlorophyll both absorb many "lights" and therefore the plant looks green. The light carotene absorbs is transferred to chlorophyll which uses it during photosynthesis. This compound is a lot more stable than chlorophyll...

...Being Green: A Life of Opportunity When I hear the iconic Kermit the Frog’s statement about the hardships of being green, I assume that being such an unordinary color could be seen as a difficult lifestyle because of the perpetual contrast the color places between the frog and the rest of society. Nobody else within society seems to be green, and the world must judge Kermit because he is out of the ordinary. However, in his song “It’s Not Easy Being Green,” Kermit is actually lamenting about how this life is difficult because he is in fact ordinary, blending in with the greenness of the natural landscape around him. Unlike Kermit, however, I believe that both the contrast of Kermit with modern society and the comparison of the frog with nature...

...The Great Gatsby, F Scott Fitzgerald Chapter 6 Color Analysis May 24, 2011 Jay Gatsby | -“torn green jersey” (104): The color green symbolizes wealth and money. At this time in the book, Gatsby is working for Dan Cody, the guy who greatly supplies his wealth. The fact that the jersey is torn signifies the hard work that Gatsby demonstrates which then leads to him reaping the benefits of hard work. This section furthers to talk about his parents and how they were “unsuccessful farm people” also that Gatsby “was a son of God.” This is to say that although Gatsby’s parents were hard workers, they were unsuccessful in reaching their ideal “American dream”. Gatsby is currently making those dreams happen. He was helping to complete his father’s business, and is therefore relatively “a son of God.”---- The green jersey also symbolizes the new life that he yearns for that is full of wealth. Right at this stage in the book, Gatsby is called different names: Gatsby, James Gats, Jay Gatsby, young Gats: Each name recognizes a different stages of growth towards the Wealthy life.-“His brown, hardened body lived naturally through the half fierce, half lazy work of the bracing days.” (104): Brown is the color of earth, and of “getting down and dirty”.
