seems like a kiddies movie (well, in the eyes of the marker), ask your teacher though

hey thanks for that and dw, i'll look into it - it makes sense

1. P is a variable point on the parabola x² = -4y. The tangent from P cuts the parabola x² = 4y at Q and R. Show that 3x² = 4y is the equation of the locus of the mid-point of the chord RQ. 2. Show that the equation of the locus of R [a(p-1/p), a/2(p² + 1/p²)] is x² = 2a(y-a).

Yeah, conflicting perspectives, I'm doing Julius Caesar. Hey, and with conflicting perspectives, you look at them within the text or can you also do a text that looks at conlficting perspectives as a response to the text, or a text that portrays one perspective over an event/person/situation...

I was thinking of doing Frost Nixon, To Kill a Mocking Bird the novel. Are they too common? Do you think these are any good? How about the Truman Show? Any other good suggestions?

You were probably better off doing an english course that actually suited you to maximise your marks i.e. standard or esl, cos you did so brilliantly in your other courses

Public areas are usually defined by their extensive decoration usually to display the owner's status and identity (show off) as opposed to private areas, eg service areas

I've having trouble bringing together my thesis. At times I think the issues I'm addressing might be too narrow, because I wanted to focus on relationships. Is that okay? But then, shouldn't a thesis be an argument you are able to adapt to every question, and I don't know if my thesis is...

Hey That was very helpful. Thanks. I guess context is a big part of our studies. I've written a short story for Romanticism, and is it okay if you can read over it and let me know if I'm on the right track? Ta

Having two related texts that are novels is cool then right?

hey thanks for all your help:)

You wouldnt be getting related texts "for the HSC question". You would be getting related texts for belonging for your prescribed texts. And if you find trouble talking about those two poems, I suggest you try other poems, although those poems would also be good for the question. Both poems...

I wouldn't say he was "forced" to belong in Australian society, because it doesnt really imply that there in the poem. And that technique of the Gallic War doesnt really show it either. The last stanza is meant to show that he is moving away from his father's culture towards the Aussie culture...

Science wouldn't be a value as such, rather, Shelley can be seen as critiquing 19th century what with the scientific discoveries that were prevalent in her time. Essentially, shes putting science in a negative light, as a way of not only challenging but taking up the role of god which would have...

Yeah thanks for that:)

Personally, i think it would be a nice prospect to recognise these days so we could learn more about the religions of our supposedly MULTICULTURAL nation. I mean, the amount of racist and lack of diversity some BOSers exhibit is a testmony to the prejudice that exists in our society towards...

yeah I suppose some markers frown upon those kind of texts, unless its a film thats kinda complex, meaningful and sophisticated, good for yr 12 students. And its best to stay on their good side, cos once they see "Finding Nemo" on your essay, they might think they're not dealing with a serious...

In terms of study guides, I think its better if you formulate your own interpretation of the text. And then to broaden your understanding, take a look at some study guides; some are crap and unworthy, cos they have totally diff interpretations of the text, others are quite good, and Stanners is...

I just wanted to know how you would bring together your ideas in an essay. Would you keep all paragraphs addressing texts separately and at the same time keep it thematically. Eg theme then text 1 then text 2 in sep paragraphs. Or is it better to talk about both texts in every paragraph? Also...

Hey I've kinda formulated a story about belonging. But I was just wondering, is it okay if there's not much movement in the story, like no action. Is that a problem, if there is no real climax?
