    Once you understand pathetic fallacy, you are well on your way to getting at least a grade 7. The skill is not just in recognising it (no, it isn't just about the weather!). Next, learn to write about why the writer has used it. And top grades become easy.

    Looking at the notion of fog and smoke across the Industrial London city. It links with the theme of Isolation and loneliness in the way it shuns him onto the periphery of society. When Dickens describes Scrooges dwelling and those around him he states that ''Although the court was of the narrowest, the houses opposite were mere phantoms''. It depicts the fog as a barrier and - as Scrooge surrounds himself with fog - he struggles to see those a few meters away. This then depicts his transformation in his ability later on in the text to see the boy down below in stave 5. His vision has become clear as there is ''no fog''.

    maybe Dickens portrays the effect the city has on children the way he does from children ultimately being the future or whats "yet to come", therefore Dickens' negative and deathly representation of the ghost of Christmas yet to come is practically an ultimatum towards his contemporary readers, saying that if society refuses to change and urbanisation continues London will become similar to the ghost CYTC, "gravely" filled with "gloom" and "horror"
    PS: Very nice video!

    Mr Salles I have a question is the reason why charity and Christmas spirit is linked to as a childhood impulse because Jesus was a child?

    Sir I got two questions.
    who are the people responsible the corruption and the industrial revolution. Are they the factory owners and the government? And was greed the only deadly sin the people at that time demonstrated?

    Would it be a good idea to make a bank of themes and characters with analyses (as essays) for all of the texts and memorise them to secure a grade 9?
