All begin with “it was...” I think the structure works well because it flows well and sounds very conversational ]]> 2021-04-13 16:00:35 UTC https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412652866 Jack https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412653684 These binaries are like right next to each other ]]> 2021-04-13 16:00:45 UTC https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412653684 “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity” https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412654174 2021-04-13 16:00:50 UTC https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412654174 Morgan Donohue https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412654472 This passage has a very uniform structure. Each part starts with “it was” which creates a sense of rhythm between the clauses. I think it stands out because of this rhythm. ]]> 2021-04-13 16:00:53 UTC https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412654472 Bellwork https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412655858 Each phrase contradicts itself, showing that this time is incredibly complex.]]> 2021-04-13 16:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412655858 Abraham https://padlet.com/akiradionne/oo8qmnkbjk2o2gd3/wish/1412656216 It provides both spectrums.
