Summarize of "The Whirlpool Rapids"Summary:In this fiction, the author tells a story about Emma, a fearless woman who nearly died at a freak accident at her 21 age and subsequently became quite a different person that changed her life thoroughly. Before the accident, Emma worked as a waitress in the coffee shop of a tourist motel in Niagara Falls while her boyfriend Bill worked as a tour leader for the same travel agency. One day, Bill invited Emma to take part in the tenth rubber-raft text run for a pilot project on a new kind of tour: down the Whirlpool Rapids below Niagara Falls. Even if Emma had known the risk, she accepted this crazy idea due to the nine times perfectly safe trials, her desire to risk a challenge and the arrogance of risking the self. On the morning of the trial day, Emma, Bill and others arrived at the launching site on the American side, buckled themselves into orange life jackets, boarded the enormous rubber raft and then moved out into the current. Nevertheless, for certain, the tenth run had failed badly. The raft buckled across the middle and the front half snapping toward the back so that the raft flipped and all individuals drowned and drift in the Whirlpool rapids. With an energy that came from anger, Emma refused to die and then formulated to save herself as soon as she struggled in the rapids. Afterward, Emma was bruised and scraped last for ten minutes until the current slowed. Fortunately, she dragged herself up onto a beach in Canada and was taken to the hospital. After this accident, Emma acquired several things from this experience. She has frequently been a different person who seemed to be selfish and unfeeling. What is more, Emma also got her strong belief that makes her invulnerable, optimistic and seemed to live in eternity. In the author's words, it must be that small injection of death, that early dose of mortality, has rendered her immune. Analysis, comment, reflection:After reading this fiction, I had found some special things in "The Whirlpool Rapids". At first, this fiction is presented in a non-linear form structure instead of a chronological order. Composed of two parts, this fiction starts to tell stories about fearless women and then introduces to the readers the unique heroine Emma at the first part, while the second part goes back to a near-death experience that Emma was at the age of 21. Besides, when it comes to character, this story builds a brave, fearless and ambitious character image and shows readers the big difference taken place in Emma after her narrow escape from death. Since then, Emma became a different person who seemed to be selfish, unfeeling, invulnerable and immortal contributed to her bravery and her strong belief. What is more, many words in the novel have some significant meanings. Before the trial, the writer called Bill "the agents of Fate who had intruded on Emma's life from time to time and then departed from it" to imply the change of Emma's Fate after the accident. Furthermore, the writer mentioned that the site was on the American side because the Canadian officials refused permission to launch the raft, which means that this trial is dangerous and risky. In the end, Emma remains young when others are beginning to wrinkle. It is hard to think how the author related the small injection of death with Emma's eternity of life. As far as I am concerned, the author overstated the impact made by the near-death experience in order to shoot up the mystery of the character of this article as well as to make readers think about how a narrow escape of death can change a person so much. Moreover, I hold a firm belief that the scene is rich in symbolism that whether a person is good or not, as far as something mortal comes, he or she would be a rather different person in both the personality and the behaviour since he or she had got through and learnt from the thing that others never undergo.
