1 The west movement in the contemporary American history is known as a process of a large scaled colonial expansion, further opening-up of the western territory, urbanization, instrialization and national merging in the States. It began after the North American War of Independence, reached the climax in the mid-19th century, and basically ended in the late 19th century. It almost ran throughout the entire process of modernization of the United States.
The westward movement in American history can be divided into three phases, accompanied by three major migration flows. First, from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, large numbers of immigrants crossed the Mountain Appalachians and opened up the Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee areas. The second phase began in 1815, the immigrants moved towards two directions: one part opened up the north region of the Ohio River, and another part went into the plain areas between southern Georgia and Louisiana. The third phase began in the mid-19th century, along with the territorial expansion of the U.S. government, a large number of immigrants continued to move westward to the direction of the Pacific coast. Until 1890, the Westward Movement formally ended.
Westward Movement was an incident with far-reaching and significant impact on the history of the United States. It has significant influence on the U.S. economy, politics and society. Politically, it has helped establish the modern territory of the United States and lay the foundation of the modern United States. Economically, it has not only developed vast western lands, established the grain and fruit base, and provided a vast domestic market and adequate raw materials for instrial development, but also laid the foundation of instrial development, and changed the instrial structures and focus. Culturally, immigrants from different countries and nationalities integrated into a whole part and formed a unique national character.

那个asstrophe查不到,lz是不是拼错了。
还有,lz是不是在学 literature devices啊?
如果是按照literature devices来说的话,这些词分别是:
Personification
Where inanimate objects or abstract concepts are given human thoughts, actions, perceptions and emotions. E.g. "The moon danced mournfully over the water" - you see that a moon cannot actually dance or with mourning, therefore it is being personified in order to create artistic meaning.
contrast: the process of pointing out differences between things.
Paradox: Where a situation is created which cannot possibly exist, because different elements of it cancel each other out.
In 1984, “doublethink” refers to the paradox where history is changed, and then claimed to have never been changed.
A Tale of Two Cities opens with the famous paradox, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.”
CHIASMUS (from Greek, "cross" or "x"): A literary scheme in which the author introces words or concepts in a particular order, then later repeats those terms or similar ones in reversed or backwards order. It involves taking parallelism and deliberately turning it inside out, creating a "crisscross" pattern. For example, consider the chiasmus that follows: "By day the frolic, and the dance by night." If we draw the words as a chart, the words form an "x" (hence the word's Greek etymology):
The sequence is typically a b b a or a b c c b a. "I lead the life I love; I love the life I lead." "Naked I rose from the earth; to the grave I fall clothed." Biblical examples in the Greek can be found in Philippians 1:15-17 and Colossians 3:11, though the artistry is often lost in English translation. Chiasmus often overlaps with antimetabole.
Proverb - a short saying, usually of unknown or ancient origin, that expresses some useful thought, commonplace truth, or moral lesson and is most often expressed in simple, homely language. Sometimes, it is allegorical or symbolic. A proverb is appealing because it is succinct and uses simple rhyme, irony, metaphor, and comparison or contrast. Proverbs are common to almost all nations and peoples.
The term is from the Latin proverbium derived from verbum, meaning “word.”
Proverbs are rooted in folklore and preserved by oral tradition.
The best known collection is The Book of Proverbs following The Psalms in The Old Testament.
ANTICLIMAX (also called bathos): a drop, often sudden and unexpected, from a dignified or important idea or situation to one that is trivial or humorous. Also a sudden descent from something sublime to something ridiculous. In fiction and drama, this refers to action that is disappointing in contrast to the previous moment of intense interest. In rhetoric, the effect is frequently intentional and comic. For example: "Usama Bin Laden: Wanted for Crimes of War, Terrorism, Murder, Conspiracy, and Nefarious Parking Practices."
Repetition
When a specific word, phrase, or structure is repeated several times, usually in close proximity, to emphasize a particular idea.
ANTITHESIS (plural: antitheses): Using opposite phrases in close conjunction. Examples might be, "I burn and I freeze," or "Her character is white as sunlight, black as midnight." The best antitheses express their contrary ideas in a balanced sentence. It can be a contrast of opposites: "Evil men fear authority; good men cherish it." Alternatively, it can be a contrast of degree: "One small step for a man, one giant leap for all mankind." Antithesis is an example of a rhetorical scheme. Contrast with oxymoron.
