LET ME WALK YOU THROUGH THE PEDESTRIAN

In this short story “The Pedestrian” By Ray Bradbury it is about a character who is out on a dark and lonely walk while finding out how technology has changed everyone for the worse. He must've felt really sad because people weren’t talking to him and no one was around. Also how technology was becoming a big problem in how people act these days. Also how the setting was really scary and serious for Bradbury because the whole story he was basically was by himself with no humans around him. 

         The tone is very lonely because the character Leonard Mead is the only real character introduced in this story. With only the police car to be only thing that confronts him. Also while he is walking on his regular night walk he has stated in his story that he has never came across another person on his walks in 8 years. The tone is also quite sad because he has no one to talk to and when the police car asks him if he has a wife he replied "Nobody wants me". Now there you can see that it hurts Mr Mead to even say that, but he does anyways and the police car says nothing.
     

     Mr Leonard Mead is the main character in this short story and only has one interaction and thats with the police car that stops him while he is on his night walk. He is also the only character that is introduced as an actual person. Mr Mead is impacted by how the authorities treat him and how the technology has had a huge impact on them. He feels like nobody even realizes how technology has made everyone be dumb in a sense where they don't want to be around people and interact with them.
    

     The main plot of this short story is that Mr Leonard Mead is out on a lonely night walk and is stopped by the only police car in the city at night and the police car takes him to his lit house. How Mr mead reacts to he police car about what he says to him and how calm he is about every question and how the police car reacts to his answers goes to show how much people are not used to that kind of behavior, and if Mr Mead would have responded differently the plot and the outcome would have came out differently. Mr.Mead then realises what technology has done to our society and how our people act and he knows it will only get worse if nothing is done to prevent it.

     In conclusion, the tone of the story is sad, lonely, and dark. Leonardo never changes through out the story, he doesn’t really develop as a character. The tone stays the same until he gets stopped by the cop car with no one in it. All in all, these are the reasons why “The pedestrian” by Bradbury decided to write this story as anger to him getting stopped by a cop.

MY ESSAY ESSAY

In the story on "Young Goodman Brown" there are many things that had happened to him, but I will be talking about how Goodman Brown was evil from the start and that faith knew it from the start. Faith told Goodman Brown that she would unpleasant dreams when she didn't have her husband by sleeping with her by her side. But Goodman Brown didn't listen and went on with his journey to the dark woods at night.
Goodman was evil and final realized it once he meet the so called devil in the woods on his journey. This was probably was a bad dream Goodman Brown probably had but once he had a conversation with him he began to slowly but surly realize that he was truly evil inside and felt like Faith knew this and decided that he wasn't good enough for her. Faith explains when Goodman Brown leaves that "A lone women is troubled with such dreams and such thoughts that she's afraid of herself sometimes. Pray tarry with me this night, dear husband, of all nights in the year."
