    Related Material for Julius Caesar

    If you could talk with sophistication about that sort of debate, then go for it. You could use techniques they utilize in their debates (eg allusion, metaphor etc) as well as techniques specific to the debate format (eg rebuttal). You should be careful to not hark on simply about whether god...

    Good related texts for Advanced and Extention 1?

    It's one thing using a 500 page novel to double up on related texts, but if you are going to use films (which is perfectly fine) you can probably spare the two hours to watch different films for each subject/module. In terms of those films: The Castle: Potentially interesting things to say about...

    literary techniques for a film ?? :/

    Techniques such as anaphora or epistrophe were originally applied to poetry and only later got appropriated into the analysis of prose.

    HSC 2013 English Advanced Marathon

    Re: 2013 HSC English Advanced Marathon From the other thread, I didn't see you had specified your text here. See if you can pick up where I left off with specifics from Romulus. (from the other thread) That question is tricky because beyond whether one belongs or not, it is asking for a...

    Get better in English Advanced- Contribute ideas/essay questions here!!

    What core text are you doing? That question is tricky because beyond whether one belongs or not, it is asking for a discussion of whether you perceive that belonging differently or at all because of context. My advice would be to break up context into 3/4 different strands. Suppose we break it...

    I 'Dislike' English to the Point Where I Don't Try

    Pete, with the right attitude I think English can become bearable, if not almost enjoyable. Although you are not choosing your modules or electives, try and adjust what you can to engage yourself. Pick related texts that you find interesting or, even better, pick a related text that you thin...

    That tower question

    For the balance, as the solenoid moved away from the north pole (I think that was the one facing up) a south pole would have been set up to try and move the solenoid back toward the magnet (ie resisting the change in flux). Therefore the magnet on the scale would have been attracted to the south...
