Two Tone

The ham comes out glazed and punctured with sweet sweet pineapple, it sits upon the table, utterly mouthwatering. perfectly pink and moist, succulent. Its been carved to perfection each slab perfectly sliced. Upon my plate its cut into perfect squares, and covered in raisin sauce. The sauce is sweet with warm plump raisins, mixed with the juicy ham it creates a eruption of flavorful joy in my mouth. Every bite creates the same reaction much like when diet coke and mints mix together to create an explosion, just complete satisfaction. Easter ham is nothing but incredible.

The ham overcooked, and dry. I punch it around my plate with my fork and knife, unable to cut it. The fat has taken up 60% residence in the ham, destroying it. The raisin sauce is dry and cold, and the raisins are dry. i try once again to cut the stone ham. Nope its not stone its a diamond, unable to crush or cut. Easter ham is far from any food id like to eat.

Distillation

Depicting the intentions of humans in the passage, the narrator describes how people (scientists) can go past the point of feeling bad for plants and animals by hurting them to potentially help other people in the future using vivid imagery, dramatic irony, and hyperbole. Painting out dramatic images, the narrator describes when the scientists “stick pins through the miserable wretches, or cut them up, without a pang of remorse, into little pieces” to also display the irony that “nine times out of ten” scientists “take to torturing something -and they firmly believe they are improving their minds” its ironic because they are hurting living things to improve the lives of others. Hyperbole is distinct when the narrator speaks of “pouring over the spiders insides with a magnifying glass”... “or cut them up...into little pieces” reason being because its not as brutal as the narrator makes it. The narrator brings together a piece depicting the reasons a scientist can be depicted as a mindless fool, however from peoples point of view they are doing better for all humankind.
