story Kaa’s Hunting. And in the story: the Bandar-log, or Monkey People. Now, I know that some people may think that if monkeys are in the story, it means something funny is about to happen. Oh no, monkeys are not funny in this tale. They are not even close to funny. They are ignorant, want attention, can’t even think properly, and in many ways, like bullies. First off; the Bandar-log act silly, and they do this to get attention. They can do what most of the Jungle People cannot, and that is climbing

In these experiments Dr. Edward Toub surgically severed the nerves in the limbs of monkeys in order to see if the monkeys could be retrained to use their numb limbs (Smith). The goal of this experiment was to gain information that would aid in the rehabilitation
friend, who do you plant to become when you grow up?”. Jin answered, “…Well…I…I want to be a transformer!”. The idea of a transformer could represent the Americans who are all the similar or the same, robot like. This could be a reason why Jin would like to be a robot. Jin is searching for his identity in a school where he is the only male Asian American student for a time being. Ironically, Jin wants acceptance from others but when a new Asian American student arrives, Jin wants nothing to do with him
allusion of animal to human in the Jungle Book: Kaa’s Hunting. Monkeys, as you may or may not know, are normally naughty and rude to people if they are not taught the right way of doing things. Monkeys are also very scatterbrained and clueless of anything. Mowgli says “...chasing silly rose leaves with the Bandar-log.”(Kipling, 10).

Well the couple tease each other relentlessly almost like an old married couple. Anyone could see they really liked each other. It could possibly be the glint in their eyes when they are with each other. Now to Ellen, she is having fun teasing him, but anyone watching would say it was flirting. "Hey Ellen, what are you doing Saturday?" Allen asked
In David Fincher’s film adaption of the novel Fight Club, the Narrator Jack works as a traveling sales agent for a car company though it’s easy to see that his job is insignificant to him and thus, it is insignificant to the viewer. What’s more important is that Jack is an insomniac. He is incredibly bored with his life, disconnected from everything, and “Never truly asleep. Never truly awake” (Fincher).

understand how awful animal testing is because the companies don't tell us what exactly they do to the animals. Animal testing is extremely expensive for the government as well. What the government does not tell us is that scientist have come up with alternative ways besides testing on animals.
