Another example is 'The Phantom of the Opera'. The Phantom's love for Christine is dark. He is possessive and uses threats and fear to try to keep her close. His love is born out of his own loneliness and deformity, and it takes a very dark path in the story.
Sure. 'Twilight' can be considered in a way. The relationship between Bella and Edward has some dark elements. Edward's vampiric nature brings a sense of danger to their love, and Bella's self - sacrificing love also has a bit of a dark undertone.
In 'Gone Girl', the so - called love between the main characters is extremely dark. There is manipulation, false accusations, and a lot of psychological games. Their relationship is far from the ideal love and shows how love can be warped by various factors.
In the 'Harry Potter' series, the climax of the final book is the big battle at Hogwarts. All the previous books have led to this confrontation between the forces of good, led by Harry and his friends, and the dark forces of Voldemort. The fate of the wizarding world hangs in the balance, which makes it the climax.
Sure. The story of the Good Friday Agreement in Northern Ireland is a great example. It ended years of violent conflict between different religious and political groups. It shows that through negotiation and compromise, peace can be achieved.
Another example is the Japanese Yurei ghost stories. These often have a deep - seated cultural meaning related to honor and the afterlife. Yurei are often spirits with unfinished business, which reflects the Japanese belief in the importance of fulfilling one's duties in life.

Well, we can say 'One of these days I'm going to redecorate my room.' Here, it implies that the person has been thinking about redecorating and will probably do it in the upcoming days or weeks. Also, 'One of these days we'll have a big party.' This indicates that a party is in the works for the near future, but the exact date isn't determined yet. It gives a sense of something that is going to happen without being too precise about the timing.
Sure. Take the story of the man who survived a plane crash in the middle of the ocean and drifted on a raft for months. It's like something out of a survival adventure novel, but it was real.
Think about love at first sight. It's a common trope in literature and movies. Two people see each other and instantly feel an intense, all - consuming love. But in real life, initial attraction might be just that - attraction. True love usually develops over time through getting to know someone, sharing experiences, and building a relationship. So, love at first sight is a fictional concept that contributes to the idea that love is a fiction.
Sure. In 'Romeo and Juliet', it's obvious that it's a love story between two people. But in 'The Lord of the Rings', Frodo has a love for his homeland and his friends, which drives him to go on his dangerous journey. Another example is 'To Kill a Mockingbird', where Atticus Finch has a love for justice and equality, which is a central part of the story.
Sure. 'Titanic' is a great example. Jack and Rose from different social classes fall in love on the ill - fated ship. They face many difficulties, including the disapproval of Rose's mother and the impending disaster of the ship sinking, but their love endures.
Think about the animal trainers in a circus. They are mainly concerned with getting the animals to perform certain tricks. There's no love story involved there. In contrast, in a love story like Wuthering Heights, the characters have intense, passionate love that drives the plot. The circus is a world of spectacle and performance, and love stories are about the emotional and psychological journey of the characters in love.
Sure. A simple example is a schoolyard argument. One kid says the other pushed him first. But the other kid says he was just trying to get a ball and accidentally bumped into the first kid. Another example is in a courtroom. The prosecution presents a case against the defendant, but the defense has their own version of events which could show the defendant's innocence.
