Cliff

Immediately, I angled my position and went for a dead sprint toward the water. I jumped off the cliff. I never felt anything like it; the trajectory had me flying through the air for longer than I expected. A surge of adrenaline pulsed through my body, bringing a new sense of life to me. The scorching heat went away as gravity pulled my body toward

At 11:25 hours the group took a break for exploration. The group entered the Vista House. In the Vista House I saw the unique stonework of the building, saw views of bridges and tunnels that are important to the area, and read information about commercial ventures such as road houses and hotels. 1) Waterfall a) Generally, waterfalls are unique structures in terms of environmental factors since they create their own ecosystems. Waterfalls also create local winds due to falling water and house species

Admittedly, I never retained much of an interest in art as a child. Yes, I knew the basic mechanics behind mixing primary colors to make secondary ones, and had even experimented with tertiary colors on occasion. I even developed an innocent curiosity in the works of Leonardo da Vinci as I grew older, but still maintained a blasé approach towards art in general. Since participating in Art Appreciation at DCCC, my views on that matter have changed. I have gained a new fondness for the seemingly trivial

It flew straight towards her. ----------------- Doctor Pax stood at the base of the cliff. In front of him was Peggotty Whim cave. The entrance was like a large black hole, ready to swallow him up. 'There's a small cave inside the entrance, just to the right,' Mosaic said. 'It's where me and my sister played when it rained.' 'Right-o! Let's

a dynamic structure, 2003). Scholars argue that the presence and strengthening of the El Niño have detrimental impacts on coastal environments in California, (earth a dynamic structure, 2003; Sanders, 2016). These impacts include cliff erosion and the collapsing of cliffs, bigger waves eroding away beaches and the coast, landslides, and sea level rise, (Richmond & Gibbs, 1998). Coastal Erosion is a result of many physical processes occurring on earth, El Niño is just one of the processes that significantly

The shoreline loomed ominously in the distance. I could faintly make out the gray concrete fortifications that sat on top of the colossal jagged cliff, barely visible through the haze of the early morning fog that enveloped the coast of German-controlled France. I could see the Nazi flag waving slowly with the ever gentle breeze. I looked down at my watch, its hands seeming to move in slow motion. It was 06:30. My company commander ordered our assault craft forward. The boat cut through the waves

“Go!Go!Go!” Dangling on the edge of a cliff I heard the echo of Sir Rolyat’s voice. The crew had left a clear path from the edge of the mountain all the way to the safe area. I reached up and swung my legs round the branch then Eille reached up and grabbed my arms. It was a really hot day in Hawaii and the sun was setting slightly to the west- the view was perfect. After a few seconds of composing ourselves I said: “C’mon, daylight ends in a few hours” “Should we split?” “No.We started as a team

since Roman times over 28 villages have disappeared into the sea between Bridlington and Spurn Head. About a million years ago the Yorkshire coastline was a line of chalk cliffs almost 32km west of where it now is. During the Ice Age deposits of soft boulder clay were built up against these cliffs to form the new coastline. It is this soft sand and clay which is easily eroded by the action of waves, as the ocean slowly claims back the region it used to occupy. There

From the passage, “Hunting for Medicines in China”, it talks about a writer who travels deep into the mountains of China to search for a rare and special herb called, the golden hairpin. In the following paragraphs, I am going to describe how the writer involves the reader in the search for the golden hairpin by conveying how the writer builds a sense of wonder about the golden hairpin and the it’s setting, how are tension and suspense developed and the use of language. From the first paragraph
