Act II scene X

The scene that I like from Act II is scene X. Rather than killing Christian; Cyrano embraces him and reveals that he is Roxane’s cousin. Christian proclaims that he simply cannot write to Roxane because he is too stupid and he thinks she will lose all feeling for him the moment she reads his words. With an idea, Cyrano offers to write letters for Christian. Though he says he is only interested in practicing his comic poetry, but really, he burns for the opportunity to express his feelings to Roxane. Christian agrees, and they begin to talk again. One thing that I hate about the scene is that it suck that Cyrano have hold back his feeling for Roxane because he know that she love Christain, but in reality Cyrano think of this as a chance to let Roxane know how he feels about her without her even noticing. It also funny how Christian was acting toward Cyrano because deep down inside Cyrano doesn’t even like him. Overall the scene was good and it was also a scene that made Christian and Cyrano become friends. The word that I learn in this scene is eloquent which mean marked by forceful and fluent expression.

Act I, scene iv

The scene that I like the most from act 1 is scene IV. The reason why I like this scene is because there was a fight in it. I will explains more of scene and it’s actions.Montfleury cries out to the group of marquises for help, and several respond. They try to quiet Cyrano, who invokes several poetic metaphors as he threatens to kill them all: “Please have pity on my sword: if you don’t stop shouting you’ll frighten it out of its scabbard.” As the crowd gasps and strains to see, Cyrano offers a challenge to the marquises, saying he will take their names and fight them each in turn. None of the marquises take his challenge. He gives Montfleury to the count of three to leave the stage, and he left
Cyrano proclaims that Montfleury is a horrible actor and that the play is wretched. Moreover, Cyrano says he has personal reasons for forbidding Montfleury to perform. The manager of the stage indignantly asks about the money he will lose from the performance, and Cyrano tosses him a purse full of gold. A meddler storms up to Cyrano and declares that Montfleury has a powerful patron. Cyrano exclaims that he himself has no patron or any need for one because he can protect himself with his sword. He accuses the meddler of staring at his nose, and he bullies him about the room. Cowed, the meddler insists that he was not staring and suggests that Cyrano’s nose is small. Cyrano angrily exclaims that his nose is magnificent.
De Guiche declares to Valvert that Cyrano is tiresome. Valvert agrees to put him in his place and, approaching Cyrano, tries to goad him by saying that Cyrano has a “very big” nose. Affecting astonishment at the man’s lack of wit, Cyrano offers a long list of better insults that he himself might have used in Valvert’s situation. He continues to mock Valvert, who challenges him to a duel. Cyrano declares that as he fights Valvert, he will speak an poem and kill Valvert on the last line.
The crowd forms a ring around the combatants. Cyrano and Valvert draw their swords and begin to fight. As they fight, Cyrano invents a poem that matches exactly the action of the duel. As promised, on the last line of the poem, he strike, and Valvert falls backward, beaten and badly wounded. The crowd cheers loudly. Later, the crowd disperses for dinner. Le Bret asks Cyrano why he does not go to eat and Cyrano replies that he has no money. Le Bret asks about the purse of gold Cyrano threw to the stage manager, Bellerose, and Cyrano reveals that it was all the money he had and that it should have lasted him for a month. The water girl offers him food. Eager not to injure his pride or betray a lack of respect for the girl’s offer, he accepts only one grape, a half of a macaroon, and a glass of water.

De Guiche

De Guiche is an opposing double to Cyrano. He represents everything that Cyrano would become if Cyrano were to use his wit for flattery and social climbing. De Guiche is a violent, vengeful, and bitter man. As the play’s villain, he constantly plans to have Cyrano killed, and he is unafraid to admit it. He serves as a symbol of misguided and ineffective leadership. His troops do not respect him. They approve of him only late in the play, when he leads a complex military maneuver for the French and then helps rescue Roxane from the dangers of battle. He does become a better person near the end of the play—a change stemming from Cyrano’s remarkable example of kindness, heroism, and respectability. Some of the reason why I like him as a character is because he is the type that would backstab a person. The other only thing that I don’t like is why he tried to kill Cyrano. To me personally I think that that De Guiche would have defeated Cyrano in a fair battle. De Guiche is also a character that cannot be trust. As in one chapter when Cyrano and the other were fighting in the war De Gucihe fake his rank in order to live. By doing that it made De Gucihe seem like a selfish person by doing anything at any cost that will benefit himself for his survival during war. Another thing to add is that I like how De Gucihe changes toward the end. As I said earlier how he changes from Cyrano action it was nice to see a change from him even if he did play as a villain in the beginning. Well De Gucihe is a well suited character that I like very much. I just wish that him and Cyrano could have been good friends.

Paranormal Activity

Ok what if one day you and girlfriend wanted to move in together. You move in with her and everything seem ok but when night time hit you feel that their something there in the house to. Well in the movie paranormal activity that exactly what happen. When this movie came out it hit big time with the money going up to $103,847,000. Well this is about two happy middle class couple named Micah and Katie which they deiced to move in with each other in a big fancy house. When Katie was little she said that there been a presence that been following her since she was little. So when they moved in with each other Katie had remained Micah that she felt as if something been watching her of following her all her life. So she wanted to see what it was and Micah bought a video recorder to see what it was.

After that Katie wanted to leave because she hasn’t been getting any sleep and she going out her mind. When Micah was ready to leave Katie wanted to sleep one more night so they did. This night as they was sleep Katie woke up out of her bed and just look at Micah so a couple of hours then she walk down stair. When she got down there she started to scream very loud and Micah went after her. When he got to her their silence, then there was loud foot step coming up the stair. Seconds later you see Micah body getting thrown to the camera and you see Katie body with blood on it and then she sniff his body and smile at the camera and that was the end of the movie. I personal think that this movie was good and it had it up and down in the beginning but toward the end it got good. So when this movie comes out on DVD people should get it. It a very good movie if you bored or want to watch a movie with your friends.

Do Videogames make you smater

Lawrence sims

Do video games really make you smarter, well that what some excerpt says. Videogames is always on the frontline of the newspapers because of the influence that it causes on kids. Kids love video games and play them for most of their free time. In the year 2004 Americans brought about 248 million, that enough for two in every house hold. For me personally I think that games make you smarter. Because when you play games they give you different tasks that you must do in order to pass to the next level. Sometimes it requires great thinking skills in order to pass such as solving puzzles to get items or use different tactics to beat the enemy. But I think that it make me smarter because I know when I’m playing around with my friends they would try to hit me and since I been playing the game my reaction time increase so I know when the punch is coming to me and I will doge it or block it. A game is like a educational tool. In some paper cities say that Video game fans would apparently have more friends, work harder at school and would therefore be ahead of their classmates, who lag behind still obsessed with GI Joe’s figurines! Also video came help out people in there everyday lives like the people in the Air Force. One man that is in the Air Force had said that he is able to fly better because of a video air craft video game that he play.
