B. 1) It definitely gives me a clear indication of the weather conditions. In london it was very veily/groggy, that as she slowly left london behind it started to thin out and patches of blue Rosamond Lehman uses many of the fabric metaphors so we get to see how the mist looks, which is in turn, describes the mist/fog much better. Lentil, saffron and fawn left behind. The course Lentil, saffron and fawn argon all brown, orangy earthy colours describing capital of the United Kingdom as she leaves it behind. London is all very built up and the the buildings are all very brown and dreary (linking back to lentil) but then the woollen day clarified , the word woollen describes the mist/fog as wool which is a fabric that you cannot see through.The phrase, drenched indigo muslin. Muslin is a very transparent type of fabric, so the mist looks very see-through . This fabric indicates a lighter colour change and lifting mist outback(a). The skies amorphous material began to quilt The ski es amorphous material are the clouds, which are beginning to thin out. The patches of blue in the sky which contrast to the white clouds are indeed like a quilt, with many patches here and there.2) It could also be describing the condition she is in and the way in which she is feeling. She has just woken up and heard the bad news, which has thrown her mind into overwind. The heavy mist/fog outside could mean that she is seriously worried as she is weighed down with worry and concern. She is still half asleep and as she sees the billowing mist, this gives us a sort of foggy appearance of what she is feeling like (like someone who has just woken up and cant distinguish anything properly). The Muslin fabric is telling us that her brain is not alert or sharp as she is looking, but not taking anything in. She is still in shock about the bad news and is still trying to wake up which further implies how she is feeling.C. 1) The sound and pace of the passage is very quick and fast flowing. Ernest Hemingway uses mainly two syllable words throughout, which adds to the already fast-flowing passage. This is vital in that the story require to be quick, so that the character in the story can finish his book and so that we dont get bored with the story line.2) All you leave to do is write one true sentence I think what Hemingway is saying is that all you need to do is to write a proper, structured sentence in order to get your story flowing again. A true sentence shows instead of tells, uses the five senses, uses strong active verbs, does not repeat oneself, doesnt use unnecessary words and uses metaphors and word pictures. That is a true sentence in which Hemingway describes.3) I think that everyone has there own outlook on life, so we therefore all have incompatible opinions on what something means. When Hemingway says that metaphorical language is ornamental, i have to agree with him, because it is a way of flowering up something and it makes people use their own imag ination. Thus, all the metaphors result be will be completely different and mean other things to other people. I do associate transparent language to truthfulness because you dont have to use your own imagination as all the facts are there. It doesnt use any many metaphors as there is literally only one floor of depth to something. I dont think that metaphorical language gets between reality and the reader. All people have different thoughts on the metaphors etc. So the issuance of one extract will be different to that off others.
