Writers organize their writings to make an impact on their readers. in muir's writing about the calypso borealis, he places opposing views of his journey close together. read the following paragraph and explain the opposite views present in the paragraph. what impact does muir make when he places these opposite views close together?

how long i sat beside calypso i don't know. hunger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west i splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. at length i saw maple woods on a hill and found." when i told her i had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places, and said, "it's god's mercy ye ever got out."

The opposing views in this paragraph begin in the first sentence, where Muir says that he sat so long at the side of Calypso that he lost his hunger. In this sentence, he seems bored and tired. Soon afterwards he says that his tiredness and hunger disappeared and he felt strong and cheerful after the sun went down. At this point, we have the impression that the place where Muir is a good and invigorating place, since it had that effect in his mood and disposition. But soon after, a woman arrives with a negative view of the place that had a positive effect on Muir. These opposing views make the reader wonder if, after all, the place where Muir was sitting was good or bad. The author does this, to sharpen the reader's sense of interpretation and make each one draw their own conclusions about the place.

more likely to elicit laughs and rude remarks rather than screams and rooting interest.

variety

while it's not a terribly original entry in the "creepy doll" horror subgenre, this fright flick nonetheless offers interesting characters, a strong cast, expert pacing, and a spooky atmosphere.
