Onomatopoeia

Draw your own comic strip that uses onomatopoeic* words. The characters in your comic strip
can be drawn elaborately, or you can use simple stick figures if you don’t feel particularly artistic.
Use at least 10 words in your story.

Your story should be told in 10-20 panels. You can invent your own story, or you can flesh

out one of the plots below:

1. a male superhero rescues a beautiful damsel in distress
2. a female superhero rescues a handsome man in distress
3. a superheroic animal rescues a beautiful damsel in distress and a handsome man in dis-

tress

4. an evil creature turns a nice teacher into a frog
5. a nice teacher turns an evil creature into a frog

You can choose from these and any other onomatopoeic words you like.

*Onomatopoeia is the use of a word that sounds like its meaning.

Clichés* are such a normal part of our speech that we usually aren’t even aware that we are using
them. There is nothing wrong with using clichés in most everyday conversation. However, for
speeches or most kinds of writing, it is best to avoid them.

Why? Clichés are so common that they don’t have a lot of power. When we hear or read

them, the meaning flows right over us and we barely notice what is being said.

The first step in learning to avoid clichés is learning to recognize them. Look over the list of

common clichés in the box below. Then see how many clichés you can use in a one-page descrip-
tion of one of the following:

• what happened when the campers saw Big Foot
• the story of how Joe Schmoe and Lillian Schmillian met and fell in love

*A cliché is an expression that has lost its power or originality from overuse.

Now it’s time to eliminate the clichés. Take what you wrote for “Cliché after Cliché after Cliché,
Part I” and replace all the clichés. (Be careful not to replace them with another cliché!) Try to be
as original as possible in the new version of your story. You may want to replace some of the
clichés with only a word or two. Sometimes, simple is best.

Example

Here is the first paragraph of one student’s story, with clichés:

Here it is without clichés:

My little sister Penelope and I were fighting like that cranky couple at the end of our

block who has been married for 50 years. Mom asked us to be quiet so she could sleep, but

we were restless and just couldn’t keep quiet. Suddenly, Mom gave up any hold on patience

and yelled at us. She looked so mad that we knew we shouldn’t get in her way again. When

Mom’s mad, the best idea is to disappear and give her some time alone—then she’s always

happy to see us when we come back. Penelope and I stopped being bored and decided to go

camping.

If your grandmother gives you a hug and says, “Your voice is music to my ears,” she is using a
metaphor.* She is also using a cliché, since “music to my ears” is an expression that is used so
often. Many common metaphors are also clichés.

Below is a list of clichéd metaphors. Think about what each one means. (If you don’t know,

ask someone or look it up.) Then rewrite the sentences, replacing each clichéd metaphor with
something more original.

Example: You are the rock of this family.
Rewritten: You are the tent stakes holding this family to the earth.

*A metaphor compares or equates two different things, without using the words “like” or “as.”

What makes tongue twisters so difficult to say? Partly, it is the alliteration.* It’s hard to get our
tongues to repeat the same sound so frequently.

Try writing some tongue twisters of your own, simply by using alliteration. Choose any 10 of

the consonants below. Then write an alliterative sentence for each. Make sure each sentence is at

least

seven words long.

A statement that involves hyperbole* can also be a cliché.

Take the statement, “He was so hungry he could eat a horse.” It involves hyperbole. (No one

is really hungry enough to eat an entire horse.) But it is used so often that it is also a cliché. It has
absolutely no originality at all.

How could you change the statement so that it still involves hyperbole, but is no longer a

cliché? Here’s one idea:

He was so hungry he opened his mouth to trap bugs

while riding his motorcycle to the nearest restaurant.

Each of the following statements uses hyperbole, and each is also a cliché. Rewrite the state-

ments so that they still involve hyperbole but show more originality. Be creative!

1. He is as strong as an ox.

_________________________________________________________________________

2. I’m so tired I could sleep for a year.

_________________________________________________________________________

3. She has tons of money.

_________________________________________________________________________

4. He is older than the hills.

One of the most common—and most fun—uses of hyperbole* is in tall tales. Tall tales often
involve a hero, like the giant lumberjack Paul Bunyan and his blue ox, Babe. They were suppos-
edly so large that their footsteps created Minnesota’s ten thousand lakes. Another example is the
less well-known Alfred Bulltop Stormalong, an immense sailor whose ship was so big it was said
to scrape the moon.

You’re the writer now.
Your hero is a character named S.T. Smozenstossle.
Make a list of five amazing things about S.T. Smozenstossle.

Here are some questions to consider in coming up with your list:

• What is amazing about S.T.? Is he/she amazingly tall, smart, strong, beautiful, handsome,

talented, or......?

• Does S.T. save people? Create things? Get revenge? Save landmarks? Come up with solu-

tions to problems. Or.....?

You might want to use this form for your list:

Sometimes euphemisms* are helpful. They can make a difficult message sting less.

Suppose Simon on the television show American Idol used euphemisms. Instead of saying,

“You are the worst singer in the history of the universe,” he might say something like this:

Perhaps you could find a way to participate in the music industry in a way that doesn’t involve singing.

Imagine that the following people need to say something difficult. Supply each with a

euphemistic way of saying what they really mean.

1. Parents: We absolutely forbid you to see your friend Smart Mouth ever again!

Using euphemisms: __________________________________________________________

__________________________________________________________________________

2. President of the U.S. to a foreign power: Your country is acting real stupid.

Using euphemisms: __________________________________________________________

3. Policeman to parents: I arrested your son. He’s in jail. If you want him out, come talk to me.

When parents want their children to take terrible-tasting medicine, they sometimes mix it with a
thick tablespoon of honey. The honey makes the bitter medicine go down easier.

Euphemisms* are the honey of the world of words. They can make difficult messages less

blunt. They can also obscure the message entirely! Often, statements filled with euphemisms are
hard to figure out. What is the person really trying to say?

A. Here are some statements that use euphemisms. The meanings are not very clear. Rewrite

each statement so that its meaning is clear.

1. You are not a person I would choose to spend any time with on a regular basis primarily

because your personality is not compatible with mine and I prefer to keep my distance.

Direct: ____________________________________________________________________

2. Whenever I have to eat asparagus, my stomach feels rather unsettled and I often find myself in

the position of having my dinner show up in a manner that is rather embarrassing.

Direct: ____________________________________________________________________

3. I have determined that your employment with this company has run its course and that it is

time for you to pursue other interests as we attempt to find a replacement whose attitude is
more in line with our company philosophy.

Direct: ____________________________________________________________________

4. I see that you have bought new shoes, and they are very attractive in design and color.

However, I’m not sure they flatter your feet from the perspective of size.

Direct: ____________________________________________________________________

B. Now use euphemisms to honey-coat the following:

5. You are the worst driver ever!

With euphemisms: __________________________________________________________

__________________________________________________________________________

6. Your cooking stinks.

With euphemisms: __________________________________________________________

Idioms are very, very hard for people learning a new language. An idiom is an expression with a
meaning different from the literal meaning of the individual words. For example, if someone says,
“He sent us on a wild goose chase,” that person is not talking about anything at all involving
geese. You just have to know that “wild goose chase” is an idiom meaning, “a frustrating search
that leads nowhere.”

Similarly, if someone says, insensitively, “My neighbor kicked the bucket,” she is not talking

about anything having to do with buckets. You just have to know that “kicked the bucket” is an
idiom for “died.”

Below are sentences using 15 idioms that are common in English. Imagine that you don’t

know the meaning of these expressions and are trying to figure out the meaning just by looking at
the words themselves. Write what you might imagine the sentences to mean. The first one is
done for you.

1. Claire knew the ropes, so she showed the new student around.

Claire had met and shaken hands with the ropes and gotten to know them, so she
showed the new student around.

2. Josh knew the song by heart.
3. Mr. Gomez turned a blind eye to the misbehavior in the back of the room.
4. Little Sara burst into tears when her big brother ran over her Barbie doll with his truck.
5. “I guess it won’t break the bank,” said Elena’s father when she asked for a new bike.
6. “This report on Nebraska doesn’t even scratch the surface,” said Ms. Yamaguchi.
7. No one wanted to be around Savanna because she cried at the drop of a hat.
8. Tony’s grandpa said, “I’m as fit as a fiddle.”
9. When asked if he could fix the printer, Zach said, “It’s a piece of cake!”
10. When her neighbors asked her if she wanted to babysit every weekend for the entire summer,

Lyndsey answered, “Maybe. But let me sleep on it before I tell you for sure.”

11. “Here. Let me lend you a hand,” said Henry’s father.
12. David stared at his algebra assignment and said, “I can’t make heads or tails of this.”
13. “You can talk until you’re blue in the face,” said Audrey’s mother, “but I’m still not moving

your curfew to 2:00 a.m.”

Idioms* are so common in the English language that most of us aren’t even aware that we are
using them. See if you can find all 25 idioms in the story below.

“I got such a kick out of watching our students present High School Musical,” said Mrs.

Adducci. “Those kids made the singing look like a piece of cake and the dancing look as easy as

pie. And the acting? I thought they would be in over their heads, but they really pulled it off.”

“You’re right,” said Miss Triblehorn. “The costumes were just to die for, and the scenery was

so great it must have cost an arm and a leg. This show became the hottest ticket in town!”

“I really thought the kids were biting off more than they could chew,” said Mr. Gutting, the

director. “If I’d had my druthers, they would have picked something easier. To make it even

worse, some kids were really bent out of shape because they didn’t get the roles they wanted.

Then the flu hit, and half the cast was under the weather for many of the rehearsals. But they

kept their nose to the grindstone, and there at the end they were really burning the midnight oil.”

“They were getting on each other’s nerves during dress rehearsal,” said the musical director,

Miss Wegter, “and a lot of them were rubbing each other the wrong way. I was crossing my fingers

that a couple of them didn’t tear into each other.”

“But others were certainly getting along well. The leading man lost his head over the leading

lady,” said Mr. Gutting.

“Really? I was in the dark about that,” said Miss Wegter.

“I guess I let the cat out of the bag. They were quite the item. However, I thought he was

going to fall apart at the seams when he saw her leave with one of the other guys one night. But

they were just friends. It turns out she was head over heels with the leading man, too.”

“The two of them really brought the house down when they came out for bows at the end of

the show,” said Mrs. Adducci. “It was wonderful!”

An oxymoron combines two terms that seem incompatible or contradictory. For example, “jumbo
shrimp.” We use “shrimp” to describe something very small because a shrimp really is very small.
Therefore, “jumbo shrimp” seems contradictory, even though we know it refers to the largest of
small shrimp.

Another example: The two of them were aalloon

Alissa asked if she could go to a weekend concert and be one of the paid volunteers

taking tickets. Her father gave her a definite maybe and said he would check with

her mom.

Alissa’s mother was a student teacher who rode the elevated subway into work

each day. She wouldn’t be home until late, so Alissa knew she wouldn’t be able to

get her answer right away.

Her dad gave her a hug, put on his dress pants, and left. He was a seriously

funny man who also played in a one-man band every other Friday night. (He was

hoping his band would become a full-time hobby.)

Alissa’s parents had one adult child, her brother Aaron. Though he lived at

home, he was training for a lightweight heavyweight boxing match, so he was a sight

unseen around the house most of the time. They also had Alissa and her little sister

Jasmine. Since no one else was around, Alissa had to cook for the two of them.

“Do you want boneless ribs or jumbo shrimp for dinner?” she asked.

“Shrimp,” said Jasmine.

The two of them ate alone together in a loud silence. “This is awful good,” said

Jasmine, trying to be nice.

Then they had slices of a fresh frozen vanilla fudge twelve-ounce pound cake

with genuine imitation chocolate bits in the frosting. She cut them in approximately

equal slices.

“That cake is pretty ugly,” said Jasmine, “but it sure is good.”

Finally they heard their mother’s key in the lock. Her mother entered, then her

older brother, then her father. A small crowd then stood in the tiny kitchen.

Alissa decided to eat her cake before her brother grabbed it. She would ask

about the concert later.

Police were called to a day care center where a three-year-old was resisting a rest.

The sentence above is an example of a pun.* It involves a play on words—the similarity between “a
rest” (like a nap) and “arrest” (as in going to jail).

Puns are often used as the punch line for jokes. Here’s one example:

A chess club met in one of the meeting rooms of a hotel. After competition, a bunch of the

members were standing around the lobby, talking about their victories. After only a few min-

utes, the manager asked them to leave.

“But why?” they asked.

“I can’t stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer,” he said.

Now if you’ve never heard the holiday song line, “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,” the

pun is not funny. (And it may not be funny to you even if you do know it. Puns often cause peo-
ple to groan, rather than laugh.)

Here’s one more example of a pun:

Anna lived on one side of the state. Monique lived on the other. They both were rich and

could afford to have their hair cut by the famous Lorenzo, who lived in the middle. Both called

Lorenzo early one Saturday, desperate to have their hair done. Lorenzo had only one appoint-

ment left, at noon that day. He said he would give it to whichever woman arrived first.

Anna left immediately in her private jet, and Monique left immediately in her private

helicopter. Anna’s plane had trouble and had to make an emergency landing. Monique

arrived safely for the hair appointment.

The moral of the story? The whirlybird gets the perm.

Below are eight punch lines that involve puns. Choose two of the punch lines, and construct

a story around each. Your goal is to make the punch line make sense. (The punch line should be
the last line in the story.)

1. I’m worried I won’t find my darling Clem in time.
2. Brother, can you spear a dime?
3. They used weapons of math disruption.
4. I’m not taking this lion down.
5. Some day my prints will come.
6. Where there’s a Will, there’s a Wayne.
7. He was the lesser of two weevils.
8. Time wounds all heels.

What Happened When the Campers Saw Bigfoot?

My little sister Penelope and I were fighting like cats and dogs. Mom asked us to be quiet as a mouse so she

could catch some zzzzs, but we were climbing the walls. Suddenly, Mom blew a gasket and chewed us out. She
looked madder than a wet hen. When Mom’s mad, a good rule of thumb is to get out of her hair—it works like a

charm

. Penelope and I stopped twiddling our thumbs and decided to go camping.

We set out as the crow flies to find a good spot. We are both fit as a fiddle, so hiking was easy as pie. After find-

ing a spot, Penelope unpacked our tent while I looked for firewood. When I came back, she was all bent out of

shape

because she couldn’t figure out the tent. I gave her a hand. We took five and shot the breeze for a while. After

starting a fire and getting out the hotdogs and marshmallows, we were soon grinning from ear to ear.

When it was time to hit the sack, we heard something rustling behind our tent. Penelope looked like a deer in

the headlights

. I knew I had to be the brave older sister and check it out. Better safe than sorry! Although I had but-

terflies in my stomach

, I went behind the tent with my flashlight. I didn’t see anything.

“I don’t mean to just sweep this under the rug, but there’s nothing there,” I said, but Penelope was still scared.

We didn’t hear anything more, so we climbed in our tent, making sure all of the zippers were zipped shut. Penelope
looked at the zippers and shrugged. “You think those flimsy zippers will keep out the monsters? Fat chance!”
I told her to keep her chin up. “We have to stick to our guns and camp overnight here, or we will be afraid to go
camping again.”

She didn’t look convinced. I said, “I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I’ve been getting pretty good at

karate. I will beat up any monster that tries to come in here! Make my day, monster!” Penelope laughed as I karate-
chopped the air. Soon we were sleeping peacefully in our tent, snug as two bugs in a rug.

The next morning, we woke up early.
“I’ll start a fire so we can have sausages for breakfast,” I said as I unzipped the tent. Penelope stayed snuggled in

her sleeping bag, reading a book.

I looked out, and to my surprise, there, sitting on a log in front of the campfire roasting marshmallows, was the

spitting image

of Bigfoot!

“Did you say you’re making sausages for breakfast?” he asked in a deep voice. I gasped, shutting the tent door.

Penelope asked what was wrong. I tried to beat around the bush, but she’s a chip off the old block, and was immedi-
ately suspicious.

“Seriously, what’s wrong?”
“Bigfoot wants to eat breakfast with us,” I said.
Penelope smiled. “Yeah, right.”
“See for yourself.”

She peeked out and then quickly ducked her head back in and zipped the tent door shut. “I can’t believe it!”

“I’m in over my head on this one,” I told her. “I’m pretty sure I can’t fight Bigfoot, not even with karate.”
“I guess we should just invite him to eat sausages with us,” she said.
“What?! How come you’re not scared?”
“Well, let’s not jump the gun here. He seems nice. When I peeked out, he said ‘Hello,’ and asked if he could

join us for breakfast. I think we should give him a chance.”

And the rest is history.

What Happened When the Campers Saw Bigfoot?

My little sister Penelope and I were fighting like that cranky couple at the end of our block who has been mar-

ried for 50 years. Mom asked us to be quiet so she could sleep, but we were restless and just couldn’t keep quiet.
Suddenly, Mom gave up any hold on patience and yelled at us. She looked so mad that we knew we shouldn’t get in
her way again. When Mom’s mad, the best idea is to disappear and give her some time alone—then she’s always
happy to see us when we come back. So, Penelope and I stopped being bored and decided to go camping.

We set out to find a good spot. We are both in shape, so hiking was easy for us. After finding a spot, Penelope

unpacked our tent while I looked for firewood. When I came back, she was upset because she couldn’t figure out the
tent. I helped her. We rested and then talked for a while. After starting a fire and getting out the hot dogs and
marshmallows, we were soon smiling with satisfaction.

When it was time to go to bed, we heard something rustling behind our tent. Penelope froze. I knew I had to be

the brave older sister and check it out. I was scared, but I knew I should be sure we were safe. I went behind the tent

Penelope looked at the zippers and shrugged. “You think those flimsy zippers will keep out the monsters? They
won’t.”

I told her to trust me and be brave. “We have to be brave and stay through the night, or we will be afraid to go

camping again.”

She didn’t look convinced. I said, “Remember how good I’m getting at karate? I will beat up any monster that

tries to come in here! Just watch me!” Penelope laughed as I karate-chopped the air. Soon we were sleeping peacefully
in our tent, calm and feeling safe.

The next morning, we woke up early.
“I’ll start a fire so we can have sausages for breakfast,” I said as I unzipped the tent. Penelope stayed snuggled in

Bigfoot!

“Did you say you’re making sausages for breakfast?” he asked in a deep voice. I gasped, shutting the tent door.

Penelope asked what was wrong. I tried to act calm, but she’s too much like me. She saw I was hiding something and
was immediately suspicious.

“Seriously, what’s wrong?”
“Bigfoot wants to eat breakfast with us,” I said.
Penelope smiled. “Yeah, right.”
“See for yourself.”
She peeked out and then quickly ducked her head back in and zipped the tent door shut. “I can’t believe it!”
“I have no idea what to do,” I told her. “I’m pretty sure I can’t fight Bigfoot, not even with karate.”
“I guess we should just invite him to eat sausages with us,” she said.
“What?! How come you’re not scared?”
“Well, let’s be reasonable and look at the facts. He seems nice. When I peeked out, he said ‘Hello,’ and asked if

he could join us for breakfast. I think we should give him a chance.”

So we did, and we made a new friend.

have cost an arm and a leg. This show became the hottest ticket in town!”

“I really thought the kids were biting off more than they could chew,” said Mr. Gutting, the director. “If I’d had

Alissa asked if she could go to a weekend concert and be one of the paid volunteers taking tickets. Her father gave
her a definite maybe and said he would check with her mom.

Alissa’s mother was a student teacher who rode the elevated subway into work each day. She wouldn’t be home

until late, so Alissa knew she wouldn’t be able to get her answer right away.

Her dad gave her a hug, put on his dress pants, and left. He was a seriously funny man who also played in a

one-man band

every other Friday night. (He was hoping his band would become a full-time hobby.)

Alissa’s parents had one adult child, her brother Aaron. Though he lived at home, he was training for a

lightweight heavyweight boxing match, so he was a sight unseen around the house most of the time. They also had
Alissa and her little sister Jasmine. Since no one else was around, Alissa had to cook for the two of them.

“Do you want boneless ribs or jumbo shrimp for dinner?” she asked.
“Shrimp,” said Jasmine.
The two of them ate alone together in a loud silence. “This is awful good,” said Jasmine, trying to be nice.
Then they had slices of a fresh frozen vanilla fudge twelve-ounce pound cake with genuine imitation chocolate

bits in the frosting. She cut them in approximately equal slices.

“That cake is pretty ugly,” said Jasmine, “but it sure is good.”
Finally they heard their mother’s key in the lock. Her mother entered, then her older brother, then her father. A

small crowd

then stood in the tiny kitchen.

Alissa decided to eat her cake before her brother grabbed it. She would ask about the concert later.
