Warm-up Activities 1. What does “the trying twenties” mean? Why is the twenties a “trying” period? Here “trying” means straining one’s power of endurance, so the phrase means that the twenties is a period in which people undergo many ordeals that will temper their willpower and make them more mature. Twenty-somethings are presented with numerous tasks which they are not yet equipped to deal with. For example, to prepare for a career, to find a mentor who will guide you through life, to find a mate with whom you will spend your life, etc. These are the things that were once irrelevant, but now have become imminent. In a sense these are the “trials” they need to go through as they are becoming an adult.

The browser was once dominant in terms of usage share, but lost most of that share to Internet Explorer produced by Microsoft during the first browser war. By the end of 2006, the usage share of Netscape browsers had fallen, from over 90% in the mid 1990s, to less than 1%. It was later purchased by AOL that still uses the Netscape brand extensively.

Main Idea of the Text
In this short story, Somerset Maugham, by describing two brothers' attitudes toward life, examines the nature and inconsistent qualities of human beings. George was a hard-working and respectable man with a decent job as a lawyer. He was also a faithful husband and loving father to four daughters. He believed that the industry should be rewarded and giddiness punished. His brother Tom, however, was an unscrupulous and good-for-nothing scoundrel. He philandered with the prettiest girls, danced, ate in the most expensive restaurants, and dressed beautifully. He borrowed money from relatives and friends. At the beginning, he fooled George by making empty promises repeatedly. Later on he even went to such an extreme that he blackmailed his brother.

Part II (line 24—line 38)
Beginning of the story about George and his brother.
Part III (line 39—line 119)
His players are no longer popular, and his fame rests on his many short stories and four of his novels: Of Human Bondage(1915),The Moon and Sixpence(1919), Cakes and Ale(1930) and The Razor’s Edge(1944). These reveal a cynical but sometimes compassionate view of humanity.

Background Knowledge
William Somerset Maugham (18741965) was a famous English novelist, short-story writher, playwright and critic. He was born in Paris and educated at King’s School, Canterbury, and at Heidelberg. He qualified in 1897 as a doctor from St. Thomas’ medical school but abandoned medicine after the success of his first novels and plays.
4. I never saw anyone wear an expression of such deep gloom. (line 29) 5. Tom had been a sore trial to his for twenty years. (line 43-44)
6. But if George could oblige him with a couple of hundred pounds, he didn’t mind for the honour of the family giving it up. (line 7779) 7. It cost George an infinite deal of trouble and five hundred pounds to settle the affair. (line 89-90)
Loading money to his brother, George appeared to be in Tom's favor at the first sight. On a second thought, readers can find that George helped his brother only for his own sake. For instance, he gave Tom some money in order that Tom might quit his job as a bartender. By doing so, he saved his face and the good reputation of his family. But unfortunately Tom took advantage of his weakness of vanity over and over again. The story offers a new interpretation of the fable of La Fontaine The Ant and the Grasshopper whose classical teaching is that in an imperfect world industry is rewarded and giddiness punished, and reveals the dual personality of ordinary people.
