story a1
the fictional world of nobel prize winner toni morrison's novel sula—the african-american
section of medallion, ohio, a community called the bottom—is a place where people and
natural things are apt to go awry, to break from their prescribed boundaries, a place where
bizarre and unnatural happenings and strange reversals of the ordinary are commonplace. the
very naming of the setting of sula is a turning upside-down of the expected; the bottom is
located high in the hills. the novel is filled with images of mutilation, both psychological and
physical. a great part of the lives of the characters, therefore, is taken up with making sense of
the world, setting boundaries, and devising methods to control what is essentially
uncontrollable. one of the major devices used by the people of the bottom is the seemingly
universal one of creating a ; in this case, the title character sula—upon which to
project both the evil they perceive outside themselves and the evil in their own hearts.

story a2
the english language premiere of samuel beckett's play waiting for godot took place in london
in august 1955. godot is an avant-garde play with only five characters (not including mr. godot,
who never arrives) and a minimal setting: one rock and one bare tree. the play has two acts;
the second act repeats what little action occurs in the first with few changes: the tree, for
instance, acquires one leaf. in a statement that was to become famous, the critic, vivian
mercer, has described godot as "a play in which nothing happens twice." opening night, critics
and playgoers greeted the play with bafflement and derision. the line, "nothing happens,
nobody comes, nobody goes. it's awful," was met by a loud rejoinder of "hear! hear! " from an
audience member. however, harold hobson's
review in the sunday times managed to recognize the play for what history has proven it to be,
a revolutionary moment in theater

In at least 150 words, discuss the comparison described in the figurative language and how the connotative language reinforces the symbol. certainly the utmost rim of my first dome was filled with the tumultuous impression of soldiers marching to death for freedom's sake, of pioneers streaming westward to establish self-government in yet another sovereign state. only the great dome of st. peter's itself has ever clutched my heart as did that modest curve which had sequestered from infinitude in a place small enough for my child's mind, the courage and endurance which i could not comprehend so long as it was lost in "the void of unresponsible space" under the vaulting sky itself.
