Contemporary Relevance- Section 2 (amarachi)


The climax is the part of the story is the major turning point that determines the outcome of the plot. It is the point to which the rising action leads. In this novel the climax is in Chapter 22, when the men make the decision to escape. This is a major decision, which permanently changes their condition of imprisonment. It was Ned Lands action that frees them from the ship. 

I find a lot of relevance just in this little part of the novel. If Nemo didn't step up at take lead then they probably wouldn't of made it out of the ship and probably wouldn't of survived.

Today, many people, especially teenagers are afraid to express what they truly feel and their talents are hidden behind fears. It is important that people know that it is important to be able to show and express yourself because when people really do need your help, you may not be there when it is actually needed. Another key aspect to why I think this is important is because it gives us a lot of information about bravery. 

Often, people will not do things they would like to do, because they are afraid or have self- doubts. It is important to dream of what you really want and then go out a do it. Even if is seems little, your action could have a major impact on yourself and on others, like Captain Nemo.

Bravery is a very rare word used in our days. You might say everyone has something or someone to fear. The opposite of bravery is fearfulness, but really, you don't have to fear anything. When we fear something, it makes matters worse. When we get rid of a fear, that is the first step to bravery.

If we all show that same bravery and courageousness, Captain Nemo did, then just think of it as us all saving lives, just like he did.
