What kind of prewriting strategy is the writer using here? A Long-Term Goal One of my long-term goals is to travel the world. I want to be able to see as many countries as I can. Fascinating different cultures. Unique beauty of all the different areas of the world. Can't wait to see like Egyptian pyramids and Buddhist temples close up! Meet people and learn more about them. Some of the places that especially interest me are Thailand, Russia, and Africa. I'm saving money so I can take a year off and travel after I finish college.

Read this passage from “the fall of the house of usher.” which element of gothic literature is not obvious in this passage? as if in the superhuman energy of his utterance there had been found the potency of a spell, the huge antique panels to which the speaker pointed threw slowly back, upon the instant, their ponderous and ebony jaws. it was the work of the rushing gust—but then without those doors there did stand the lofty and enshrouded figure of the lady madeline of usher. there was blood upon her white robes, and the evidence of some bitter struggle upon every portion of her emaciated frame. for a moment she remained trembling and reeling to and fro upon the threshold—then, with a low moaning cry, fell heavily inward upon the person of her brother, and in her violent and now final death agonies, bore him to the floor a corpse, and a victim to the terrors he had anticipated. bleak or remote settings supernatural or otherworldly elements macabre or violent incidents strong language full of dangerous meaning
