 * 1) 2. What does Mrs. Danvers want to show the narrator in the west wing?

Mrs. Danvers: My goal for XXX is to lure her into Rebecca's room and show her the past. XXX will then be hypnotised into believing that she is Rebecca. From this Rebecca's personality will come alive and Manderley will be like the old times. If XXX does come into Rebecca's room, she will feel her presence and see a flashback of her and her scent. If this goal succeeds, Mr. De Winter will be content and the pressure and the heavy air will lift from all of Manderley. I shall find XXX sneak into Rebecca's room, then I shall catch her going in and looking at Rebecca's things. I shall tell her how I perserve her things and how they are memorable to me because I adored her so much. Of course this is all a lie. Anyways when XXX looks and touches Rebecca's things, maybe, just maybe will she then feel Rebecca's presence in the air, in Manderley, just as I do. XXX will be obsessed and wont be able to take her mind of this feeling that I feel. If she does, we have a connection that Rebecca is still in Manderley, or she is not. But XXX doesnt belong here and the only way that things will return to normal is if she has to act more like Rebecca or, she will have to go. Or if time goes backwards. Things were getting bad durring the last days of Rebecca's life. Thats why she went down. Thats probably why she had to go. But because she did go, she left Manderley, she left her soul there. Her soul is still here. In the west wing is where I shall put away XXX as well. Another show, a mere pretend. The young and inexperienced Madam wont know how to say no. She does not know anything. That part of her is just like Rebecca. An ignorant girl because she doesnt want to believe the things she hears. Rebecca just thought she was always right. She was ahead of everyone in her Manderley world. Ignorance is not the answer here at Manderley and I have not been here long enough to say but someone else does.

Dear XX,

As you might have heard about Emitt Till, I lived in the same town as Emitt. I heard the stories from the newspaper the people and decided to see what was going on. I was shocked to see that the stories were true, it wasn’t even exaggeration. At first I was shocked; I felt blood coming to my head for treating a HUMAN that way. After that rush, I felt scared, what exactly did Emitt do, who was the group or person that did this? I was scared; I was scared because it was targeted to me and my colored people. Lynching was around but I’ve NEVER seen anything like this to a child like me. By the time I was walking out, I felt sympathetic to the family and the torture the victim and the family went through. There was absolutely no way justice was going to be served. I don’t exactly know what Emitt do for being tortured the way he was but from now on, I KNOW I won’t be looking at anyone in the eye and stick with my friends all the time. I will never be alone as well as alone undefended. I’m so scared I might move somewhere else, maybe North with my family. I’ll write to you more about what is going to happen to Emitt Till’s body soon and what our family plans are.

Sincerely Anna

- i thought your story was good. The writing style was a bit confusing, but it was still good  Kayla: I thought it was a well thought out letter. I also like how you said that justice was not going to be served.

Good job...the description of your different emotions were great. -Megan Pinkerton

Well written. You made your view on the event clear and had a persuasive way of writing that could sway other opinions.--Jess

I can feel the unhappiness coursing through this letter, especially with the aid of the stressed words. Nice job! -Diana.

========================================================================================================= I couldn't do my homework, even if I //wanted// to because of the event that occurred friday. After I went off the bus, a big black van pulled up and someone big hands grabbed me and pulled me inside!! I couldn't scream but I yanked and pulled and struggled to get free. My sister, on the other hand, was running away. I guess she called the cops and the cops new it was a famous kidnapper wanted throughout the world. Apparently, they sent FBI's and made a 48-hour search for me. That's why it wasn't on the news or TV. It was an undercover work. You're actually not even supposed to be knowing this but this is the reason I didn't do my homework and I don't want any points off for not doing it. Anyways, so as soon as the FBI's were on a search for me, the kidnappers (whom i did not see their faces) threw me out of their truck on the side of a deserted highway. Because the car was still speeding when they threw me out, I was knocked out and everything went black. A random red car saw me lying there on the highway (one of the few cars that passed every hour or so) and called 911 and hurried me to the hospital. Bless that person who brought me to the hospital whoever it may be. When I eventually woke up, I was in Lancaster General Hospital and a FBI head officer told me everything what happened and that I was okay and I will be able to see my parents again. He also told me that this event was secret from the Goverment agency so other people outside my family was not allowed to know. When I was released from the hospital, it was dark, so I asked my dad what time it was. He told me it was 8 o'clock on Sunday. He also said since I was fine without major injuries, he told me I had to go to school. This is the reason I didn't have my homework done, even if I //wanted// to. My life was in danger this weekend and this isn't the only class where I didn't have my homework done.

=========================================================================================== **Are people inherently good or evil?

In this world, all people are inherently good because it is a natural feeling that is found from deep within. For example, if someone slips off the edge of a cliff and reaches their hand out towards you for help, in second nature, I'm almost positive that every person in the world, good or evil will reach their hand out to help. It is second nature, whether that person realizes or not and it comes out without hesitation. Good is found in everything and everyone, even if it is not intended. Good is a gift every person has. In order to be a really good person beyond mediocre character, people have to try and use it daily with effort. The bad or evil actions done by a person are mistakes that needs to be noticed. These mistakes are bad choices that a person decides to do. These actions are intentional or may not be but later on if they look back, I'm sure that person will regret their actions. Bad people are fools who keeps on making bad mistakes. The day they realize their mistakes and feels bad about them is the day they are good people.**
