25. Jimmy Valentine’s reformation.

The story I’m going to analyse is ‘’ Jimmy Valentine’s reformation’’ written by Henry.

Safe cracker Jimmy Valentine is released from prison after 10 month he was originally sentenced to four years but men with as many friends as Jimmy usually didn’t stay locked up for long. He goes to his old apartment packs up his tools and leaves. In the following weeks a few crash robberies are committed and the detective who landed Valentine in the first place. Ben Price is called to work on the new case. He realized that the robbers are committed in Jimmy’s style. Then Jimmy has his business and engaged Annabel. Valentine start to leave the bank after wards and he sees. Price standing by the door and realizes he had witnessed the whole incident. Sheepishly he gives himself up but much to his surprise. Price pretends not to recognize him and walks away.

SD: find in the text

I think that the main idea of the text is your life is in your hands.

27. Phraseological Units.

A phraseological unit is a more or less stable word com­bination of the vocabulary of a given language.

PATTERNS OF DECOMPOSITION OF PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS

1.Incentive;2.Implied;3.Prolonged;4.Replaced;5.Curtailed;6.Re-semantized.

EPIGRAMIt is a deliberate coinage of a phrase, a sentence which resembles a proverb. Epigrams are mostly used in publicistic style. The exposition of ideas is given in epigrammatic style.

ALLUSIONIt is an indirect reference to historical, biblical, mythological and everyday facts made in one's utterance. Allusions may be used in newspapers, everyday talk. Semantic peculiarities of allusion merit special note: the meaning of the word is a form for the new interaction of meanings. Allusion calls forth the knowledge stored in the reader's mind.

QUOTATIONIt is a SD always even in scientific prose. Quotations, unlike epigrams, need not be short: a whole paragraph or a long passage may be quoted as it suits the purpose. Quotations are often used in epigraphs. In this case it possesses great associative power and calls forth much connotative meaning.
