Theodore DreiserPassage 1These are the times that try men‟s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, i n this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain toocheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right (not only to TAX) but” to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER,” and if being bound in that manner, is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious; for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.Questions:1. Which book is this passage taken from?2. Who is the author of the book?1. the American Crisis2. Thomas PainePassage 2But you would have uttered moreHad you known of nature‟s power;From the world when you retreat,And a leaf‟s your winding sheet,Long before your spirit fled,Who can tell but nature said,Live again, my Caty-did!Live, and chatter Caty-did.Questions:3. Who is the writer of these verses?4. What is the title of this lyrical poem?5. What is Caty-did?3. Philip Freneau4. To a Caty-Did5. According to Freneau‟s note, a Caty-Did is a well-known insect. When full grown, it is about two inches in length, and of the exact color of a green leaf. It can sing such a song as Caty-Did in the evening toward autumn.Passage 3I celebrate myself, and sing myself,And what I assume you shall assume,For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.I loafe and invite my soul,I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass.My tongue, every atom of my blood, form‟d from this soil, this air,Born here of parents born here from parents the same, and their parents the same,I, now thirty-seven years old in perfect health begin,Hoping to cease not till death.Creeds and schools in abeyance,Retiring back a while sufficed at what they are, but never forgotten,I harbor for good or bad, I permit to speak at every hazard,Nature without check with original energy.Questions:6. This is the first two stanzas in the first section of a long poem entitled______.7. The name of the poet is _____.8. What is the verse structure?6. Song of Myself7. Walt Whitman8. free versePassage 4Because I could not stop for death,He kindly stopped for me;The carriage held but just ourselvesAnd immortality.We slowly drove, he knew no haste,And I had put awayMy labor and my leisure too,For his civility.We passed the school where children played,Their lessons scarcely done;We passed the fields of gazing grain,We passed the setting sun.We paused before a house that seemedA swelling of the ground;The roof was scarcely visible,The cornice but a mound.Since then ‟t is centuries; but eachFeels shorter than the dayI first surmised the hors es‟ headsWere toward eternity.Questions:9. Who is the writer of the lines?10. In which category would you place this poem?A. narrativeB. dramaticC. lyric9. Emily Dickinson 10. C11. The poet is noted for her uses of _____to achieve special effects.A. perfect rhymeB. exact rhymeC. slant rhymePassage 5When a girl leaves her home at eighteen, she does one of two things. Either she falls into saving hands and becomes better worse. Of an intermediate balance, under the circumstances, there is no possibility. The city has its cunning wiles, no less than the infinitely smaller and more human tempter. There are large forces which allure with all the soulfulness of expression possible in the most cultured human.The gleam of a thousand lights is often as effective as the persuasive light in a wooing and fascinating eye. Half the undoing of the unsophisticated and natural mind is accomplished by forces wholly superhuman. A blare of sound, a roar of life, vast array of human hives, appeal to the astonished senses in equivocal terms. Without a counselor at hand to whisper cautious interpretations, what falsehoods may not these things breathe into the unguarded ear! Unrecognized for what they are, their beauty, like music, too often relaxes, then weakens, then perverts the simpler human perceptions.Questions:12. From which novel is this paragraph taken?13. Who is the author of the novel?12. Sister Carries13. Theodore DreiserⅣ. Literary Terms1. Satire 12. Irony2. short story 13. Plot3. Stanza 14. Nonfiction4. Subtext 15.

Analysis of Literary WorksRip Van WinkleAt the foot of these fairy mountains, the voyager may have descried the light smoke curling up from a village, whose shingle-roofs gleam among the trees, just where the blue tints of the upland melt away into the fresh green of the nearer landscape. It is a little of great antiquity, having been founded by some of the Dutch colonists, in the early times of the province, just about the beginning ofthe government of the good Peter Stuyvesant, (may he rest in peace!) and there were some of the house of the original settlers standing within a few years, built of small yellow bricks brought from Holland, having latticed windows and gable fronts, surmounted with weather-cocks.In that same village, and in one of these very houses (which, to tell the precise truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years since, while the country was yet a province of Great Britain, a simple good-natured fellow of the name of Rip Van Winkle. He was a descendant of the Van Winkles who figured so gallantly in the chivalrous days of Peter Stuyvesant, and accompanied him to the siege of Fort Christina. He inherited, however, but little of the martial character of his ancestors. I have observed that he was a simple good-natured man; he was, moreover, a kind neighbor, and an obedient hen-natured husband. Indeed, to the latter circumstance might be owing that meekness of spirit which gained him such universal popularity; for those men are most apt to be obsequious and conciliating abroad, who are under the discipline of shrews at home. Their tempers, doubtless, are rendered pliant and malleable in the fiery furnace of domestic tribulation; and a curtain lecture is worth all the sermons in the world for teaching the virtues of patience and long-suffering. A termagant wife may, therefore, in some respects, be considered a tolerable blessing; and if so, Rip Van Winkle was thrice blessed.Questions:1.Try to explain the setting by making reference to the above passage selected from Rip Van Winkle.1. By the setting of a story we mean its time and place-its geography, era, reason, and society. Most writers invoke particular places and particular times, and their stories establish these settings precisely. Precise setting helps to establish the truth of the story, to persuade the reader of the validity of the take. In “Rip Van Winkle”, by a detailed description of a remove, isolated “little village of great antiquity”, Irving creates a quiet, tranquil, ante-bellum social aura, which may betray his personal dislike of change, revolution and war; on the other hand, this setting prepares readers for the following exotic experience of Rip.Setting can give us information vital to plot and theme. Often, setting and character will reveal each other. At the start of A Rose for Emily, Faulkner depicts Emily Grierson‟s house, once handsome but now “an eyesore among eyesores” surrounded by a gas station. Still standing refusing to yield its old-time horse-and-buggy splendor to the age of the automobile, the house in “its stubborn and coquettish decay” embodies the character of its owner.In some stories, a writer will see to draw a setting mainly to evoke atmosphere. The atmosphere is the aura or mood, or the general pervasive feeling aroused by the work which shares the reader‟s attitudes and expectations. Gothic fiction and Edgar Allan Poe‟s horror stories abound with settings of this kind.2.Daisy MillerWinterbourne, who had returned to Geneva the day after his excursion to Chillon, went to Rome toward the end of January. His aunt had been established there for several weeks, and he had received a couple of letters from her.” Those people you were s o devoted to last summer at Vesey have turned up here, courier and all,” she wrote.” They seem to have made several acquaintances, but the courier continues to be the most in time. The young lady, however, is also very intimate with some third-rate Italians, with whom she packets about in a way that makes much talk. Bring of that pretty novel of Cherbuliez‟s---Paule-- Mere-and don‟t come later than the 23rd.”In the natural course of events, Winterbourne, on arriving in Rome, would presently have ascertained Mrs. Miller‟s address at the Am erican banker‟s and have gone to pay his compliments to Miss Daisy.” After what happened at Vevey, I think I May certainly call upon them,” he said to Mrs. Costello.“If, after what happens---at Vevey--- and everywhere-you desire to keep up the acquaintance, you are very welcome. Of course aman may know everyone. Men are welcome to the privilege!”“Pray what is it that happens-here, for instance?” Winterbourne demanded.”The girl goes about alone with her foreigners. As to what happens further, you must apply elsewhere for information .She has picked up half a dozen of the regular Roman fortune hunters, and she takes them about to people‟s houses. When she comes to a party she brings with her a gentleman with a good deal of manner and a wonderful mustache.”“And where is the mother?”“I haven‟t the least idea. They are very dreadful people.”Winterbourne meditated a moment.” They are very ignorant-very innocent only. Depend upon it they are not bad.”“They are hopelessly vulgar,” said Mrs. Costello. “Whether or on being hopelessly vulgar is being …bad‟ is a question for the metaphysicians. They are bad enough to dislike, at any rate; and for this short life that is quite enough.”The news that Dairy Miller was surrounded by half a dozen wonderful mustache s checked Winterbourne‟s impulse to in straightway to see her. He had, perhaps, not definitely flattered himself that he had made an ineffaceable impression upon her heart, but he was annoyed at hearing of a state of affairs so little in harmony with an image that had lately flitted in and out of his own meditations” the image of a very pretty girl looking out of an old Roman window and asking herself urgently when Mr. Winterbourne would arrive. If, however, he determined to wait a little before reminding Miss Miller of his claims to her consideration, he went very soon to call upon two or three other friends. One of these friends was an American lady who had spent several winters at Geneva, where she had placed her children at school. She was a very accomplished woman, and she lived in the Via Gregoriana. Winterbourne found her in a little crimson drawing room on a third floor; the room was filled with southern sunshine. He had not been there ten minutes when the servant came in, announcing” Madame Mila!” Th is announcement was presently followed by the entrance of little Randolph Miller, who stopped in the middle of the room and stood staring at Winterbourne. An instant later his pretty sister crossed the threshold; and then, after a considerable interval, Mrs. Miller slowly advanced.Questions:2. In his whole writing career James is concerned with “point of view”, which is at the centre of his aesthetic of the novel. Comment on the “point of view” in this story.2. The method of “point of view” as James term ed means observing events and people through the consciousness of his characters. In Daisy Miller Winterbourne is the objective spectator, through whose eyes James reveals the conflicts between Mrs. Walker and Dairy, through whose mind James illustrates the situation and characters clearly.3. Daisy defies European conventions and falls a victim to her own innocence. Discuss the character of Daisy.3. She is fresh, pure, brave, honest, and enthusiastic. She represents American independent spirit. She likes freedom and dares to challenge old European convention and tradition. But somehow she is not well-cultured or well-refined.4. In his story Winterbourne shows contradictory attitudes toward Daisy. He tries to decide whether she is a flirt or a native girl. Illustrate his attitude by citing some examples from the reading.4. “They‟re very ignorant-very innocent only, and utterly uncivilized. Depend on it they‟re not bad.” “The poor girl‟s only fault is her complete lack of education.”5. In this selected reading, when Daisy is taking a walk with Winterbourne and Giovanelli, Mrs. Walker gets there and tries to “rescue” her from her indiscretions. But Daisy refuses her. As an American Living in Europe, what do you think Mrs. Walker represents?5. She represents European conventional opinions. As an American living too long in Europe, she is overwhelmed by European over-refined, degenerated, and artificial sophistication.6. James‟ fame largely rested on his handing “the international theme”----American innocence in contrast with European sophistication. What is James‟s attitude towards the difference in morality of Daisy Miller from that of the Old World?6. James enjoys juxtaposing American moral innocence with the somber decadence of Europe and presenting the superiority of at least some of American values to those of the Old World. However, the final death of Dairy in Some indicates that European values are strong and overwhelming.To HelenHelen, thy beauty is to meLike those Nicean barks of yore,That ge ntly, o‟er a perfumed sea,The weary, wayworn wanderer boreTo his own native shore.Om desperate seas long wont to roam,Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face.Thy Naiad airs have brought me homeTo the glory that was GreeceAnd the grandeur that was Rome.Lo! In yon brilliant window-nicheHow statue-like I see thee standThe agate lamp within thy hand!Ah, Psyche, from the regions whichAre Holy Land!Questions:7. “To take sound away from poetry”, said one poet “is like tearing the wings from a bird”. Poets, like musicians, are sensitive to the effects of sounds. Analyze the lines from To Helen and explain the device of alliteration in your own words.O Captain! My Captain!O Captain! My Captain! Our fearful trip is done;The ship has weather‟d every rack, the prize we sought is won;The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting,While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:But O heart! heart! heart!O the bleeding drops of red,Where on the deck my Captain lies,Fallen cold and dead.O Captain! My captain! Rise up and hear the bells:Rise up—for you the flag is flung—for you the bugle trills;For you bouquets and ribbon‟d wreaths---for you the shores a-crowding;Here Captain! Dear father!This arm beneath your head;It is some dream that on the deck,You‟ve fallen cold and dead.My Captain does not answer, his lips are pale and still;My father does not feel my arm; he has no pulse nor will;The ship is anchor‟d safe and sound, its voyage closed and done;From fearful trip, the victor ship, comes in with object won;Exult, O shores, and ring, O bells!But I, with mournful tread,Walk the deck my Captain lies,Fallen cold and dead.Questions:8. Read the poem lyrics of O Captain! My Captain! By Walt Whitman and analyze it terms of free verse.Invisible manXXV. The Hunting of the Invisible ManFor a space Kemp was too inarticulate to make Adye understand the swift things that had just happened. The tow men stood on the landing, Kemp speaking swiftly, the grasp something of the situation.“He‟s mad,” said Kemp; “inhuman. He is pure selfishness. He thinks of nothing but his own advantage, his own safety. I have listened to such a story this morning of brutal self-seeking! He has wounded men. He will kill them unless we can prevent him. He will create a panic. Nothing can stop him. He is going out now-furious!”“He must be caught,” said Adye. “That is certain.”“But how?” cried Kemp, and suddenly become full of ideas. “You must begin at once. You must set e very available man to work. You must prevent his leaving this district. Once he gets away he may go through the countryside as he wills, killing and maiming. He dreams of a reign of terror! A reign of terror, I tell you. You must set a watch on trains and roads and shipping. The garrison must help. You must write for help. The only thing that may keep him here is the thought of recovering some books of notes he counts of value. I will tell you of that! There is a man in your police station—Marvel.”“I know,” said Adye,” I know. Those books—yes.”“And you must prevent him from eating or sleeping; day and night the country must be astir for him. Food must be locked up and secured, all food, so that he will have to break his way to it. The houses everywhere must be barred against him. Heaven send。

This kind of writing is typical of Hawthorne, who tends to put everything ambiguous in his work and leave readers in doubts.3. A. Walt Whitman: Song of Myself.B.

Cheerful and having no worries.C. It is a classic piece in American Transcendental writings.

What symbolic meaning does Moby Dick stand for?4. Whitman is one of the most important figures in American poetic history. He has carried on a sort of experiment on the form of poetry by choosing free verse as his medium of expression. What are the characteristics of Whitman's free verse?5. Literary critics have seen Rip V an Winkle as a symbol of several aspects of America. What are the aspects that the story and its hero symbolize?D. 论述题(Topic discussion)1 .
