1. Analyze the conflicts within the text in
relationship to the imagery provided.
How does the imagery support the moments of conflict within the
text? Analyze moments of imagery within
the text to explain the meaning and value that is added through the language
choices. Then, evaluate the author’s use
of imagery and judge the quality of the descriptive lines within the text.
"Out of the corner of his eye he saw Kelli lunge, raking her talons across Annabeth's arm. Annabeth screamed and fell. Percy stumbled in her direction. The vampire on his back sank her teeth into his neck. Searing pain cursed through his body. His knees buckled. Stay on your feet, he told himself. You have to beat them...This was it. His luck had finally run out."
Because of the imagery provided it is evident that Percy must kill the vampires in order for him and Annabeth to survive. This supports the conflict because it makes you fell like you are there and it makes you feel like you want to help Percy and Annabeth. The words lunge, raking, stumbled, sank, searing, and finally make the image more clear because it gives you the sense of urgency that Percy is feeling, it also gives the feeling of loss and hopelessness. These lines are good quality because you can picture what happening very well.
