to be destroyed so that no one would ever know about the park. It was just
too dangerous, perhaps when we have means of controlling the dinosaurs we
might try to bring them back again.
4. The dinosaurs on Isla Sorna, are they still there?
Yes, we believe that this time we should be studying them instead
of destroying them. We have set up a surveillance system to observe the
dinosaurs for years to come. Perhaps this way we might learn about how we
may protect ourselves from these creatures and perhaps about their
evolution and extinction.
5. You say the dinosaurs are still alive. Are you not afra .....

then realized that he is just a player in a game.

to certain people. Nobody cares what he does, as long as he does what is
expected. Towards the end of the novel, the narrator shows that he
understands his status with the white people when he refuses to consent to
sexual intercourse with a white woman.
The narrator actually does find himself. In the prologue, he says

difference between Willy and his salesman neighbour Charley who chooses
other ways of achieving success.

Importance Of Restraint In Lord Of The Flies And Heart Of Darkness
.... Towards the end of the novel, Marlow becomes becomes
very close to losing his sanity, but also has the necessary restraint to
maintain it. He confuses the beat of a drum (the call to man's primative
side) with his own heartbeat, but is still able to restrain from slipping
over the edge as Kurt did. Ralph in Lord of the Flies is constantly faced
with temptation to join Jack and all of the other boys, especially when
Piggy dies and he is all alone. This makes it even more difficult to
restrain from giving in to Jack and his animalistic tribe. Therefore, it
is evident how important restrain is in these two novels. The ability to .....

whether on the bodice of her gown, or flesh of her forehead,'" (p. 49).
To which another replied "'This woman has brought shame upon us all, and
ought to die'" (p. 49). It is a good thing they didn't have any political
power. This shows how full of evil these human self appointed judges are,
and they do not only judge Hester, they also judge judges' decision.
Hawthorne comments this barbarism by describing these .....

An Analysis On "Araby"
.... blood. (4)” He feels ashamed and ridiculed by his
earlier inability to communicate with Mangan's sister. He sees how
distracted he was by his anticipation of the bazaar. He recalls that he “
had hardly any patience with the serious work of life. (12)” The narrator
is embarrassed by the time he had wasted, and the ease with which he became
distracted. The near total worthlessness of the bazaar at the time the
narrator arrives is an extreme example of vanity. Not only does the
narrator feel ridiculed by the vanity involved in this situation, he also
feels driven by it. The simple conversation he carries on with Mangan's
