23. Foreshadowing Example
From “After Twenty Years”…
Bob says, “You’ve changed lots,
Jimmy. I never thought you were so
tall by two or three inches.”

24. Flashback Examples From “Seventh Grade”…
“[Mr. Bueller] remembered his college years when he dated a girlfriend in borrowed cars. She thought he was rich because each time he picked her up he had a different car.”

25. Examples of Situational Irony
From “Harrison Bergeron”… ‘“Harrison Bergeron has escaped from jail…If you see this boy, I repeat, do not try to reason with him” … the photograph of Harrison was gone. A living, breathing Harrison filled the screen.’ From “After Twenty Years”… The man we thought was Jimmy Wells turns out to be a plainclothes policeman. The original policeman turns out to be Jimmy Wells.

26. Example of Mood From “Harrison Bergeron”…
“In a explosion of joy and grace, into the air they sprang! They reeled, whirled, swiveled, gamboled, and spun. They leaped like deer on the moon.”
Strong verbs? Dramatic images? What if the author had
simply said…they danced.
Mood can be romantic, gloomy or sad, pessimistic,
optimistic, fanciful or imaginary, etc.

27. Tone can be… Positive: happy, cheerful, playful, humorous
Negative: angry, contemptuous, sarcastic, sad, gloomy
Neutral: indifferent, matter-of-fact, formal, resigned

28. Example of Tone From “Harrison Bergeron”… “Diana
Moon Glampers…came into the
studio with a double-barreled ten-
gauge shotgun. She fired twice, and
the Emperor and the Empress were
dead before they hit the floor.”
What is the author’s attitude?

29. Example of Dialogue
From “After Twenty Years,” Silky Bob speaking to Jimmy before he realized the original policeman was his old friend tells us about Jimmy as well as Bob himself.
“He [Jimmy] was a plodder, though, a good
fellow…I’ve had to compete with some of
the sharpest wits going…It takes the West
to put a razor-edge on [a man].”

30. Example of Symbolism From “Harrison Bergeron:”
The dance of Harrison and the ballerina
symbolizes freedom:
“And then, in an explosion of joy and
grace, into the air they sprang!
Not only were the laws of the land
abandoned, but the law of gravity and
the laws of motion as well.”

31. Example of Allusion “He flung away his rubber–
From “Harrison Bergeron:”
“He flung away his rubber–
ball nose, revealed a man
that would have awed
Thor, the god of thunder.”
refers to Harrison’s size and his acting as a protector for the people.
Thor

32. Example of Foil
Example: Silky Bob, although very like Jimmy (friends, from NYC, same age) makes Jimmy’s good qualities, e.g., honesty, more apparent.
