He remembers all of the nights he spent working on his projects instead of spending time with his wife. https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574517 https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574517 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:25:22 -0400 It was when Tom began to fall and the suspense of if he would be able to remedy the situation or not that the story reached the climax. https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574512 https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574512 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:25:22 -0400 Tom started out by going out onto the ledge to retrieve the paper that he wanted. But when he was actually out there and in danger he changed his mind. He no longer cared if he got the paper, he just cared if he survived to tell the story. https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574508 https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574508 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:25:22 -0400 Time starts to pass slowly when Tom starts to realize the danger that he is in because of his hasty decision.

He measures the width of the ledge as well as the indent of the bricks to see if it would be at least halfway safe for him to go out onto the ledge. He is motivated to risk himself for the paper because of the time that he put into obtaining the information on the paper.

It shows this because in the sentences it tells how as soon as Tom saw the yellow paper he ran to the window to try to open the window with all of his strength.

At the beginning of the story it shows that Tom values his work more than other things. https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574475 https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574475 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:25:22 -0400 Tom says that the reason he is distracted is because of the heat, when really he is distracted by his guilty conscience. https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574470 https://nowcomment.com/documents/59879?scroll_to=574470 Wed, 14 Sep 2016 13:25:22 -0400 I think that mosaic plagiarism might be more serious than direct plagiarism. https://nowcomment.com/documents/57212?scroll_to=555759 https://nowcomment.com/documents/57212?scroll_to=555759 I think that mosaic plagiarism might be more serious than direct plagiarism because you clearly are intending on plagiarizing if you are willing on putting the effort of finding synonyms to substitute with.
