18 years old, not a romantic, nut-brown hair, nut-brow eyes, nut-brown freckles, middling tall, slow of speech, easy smile, practical lad, had been courting Daisy Hempstock, dreamt about leaving Wall; "When he daydreamed in his father's meadow, of leaving the village of Wall and all its unpredictable charm, and going to London, or Edinburg, or Dublin"

The author:
- We think that he chose this setting to make it more exciting, because we kind of feel bad for them.

Socioeconomics:
- They are low on the socioeconomic, or at least that's what feeling we get.  
The houses are built with grey stones, which makes is seem like the people doesn't have their pockets filled with gold. 
They are a good working class.

Even the title of a work or a chapter can act as a clue that suggests what is going to happen.  Foreshadowing in fiction creates an atmosphere of suspense in a story, so that the readers are interested to know more. You can see it in the start of the tekst "stardust - chapter one"]]> 2018-09-10 09:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ceci649k/vfpjp64jlfk4/wish/279308947 Question 5: What is the language in the story like? What kind of English is it? A story becomes increasingly more difficult if the sentences are longer. How many words are in each sentence of the text and what does it say about how complicated the text is?The langauge is similar to old-english, which uses words as “taciturn”The second sentence is approximately at 53 words. The fifth at 57.Less punctuation makes the sentences longer and seem more difficult to read. https://padlet.com/ceci649k/vfpjp64jlfk4/wish/279311477 2018-09-10 09:13:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ceci649k/vfpjp64jlfk4/wish/279311477
