Ishmael remarks that even the wildest of rumors usually contains some truth.Whales, for instance, have been known to travel with remarkable speed from the Atlantic to the Pacific; thus, it is possible for a whale to be caught in the Pacific with the harpoons of a Greenland ship in it.

Why?Yes, it is.Because The Fourth of July is known as Independence Day,the birthday ot the United States.Here Thoreau uses the day to express his beginning of regeneration at Walden.It also means a symbol of his conquest of being.4.How could you answer the question Thoreau asked at the end of this selection?三、。

1.What are the principles of Imagism? Try to analyze animagist poem based on the said principles.Three Imagist poetic principlesi direct treatment of the thing, whether subjective orobjectiveii to use absolute no word that does not contribute to the presentationiii to compose in the sequence of the musical phrase, not in the sequence of a metronome in regarding to rhythmFor example,In a Station of the MetroThe apparition of these faces in the crowd;Petals on a wet, black bough.(1)In a Station of the Metro is an observation of the poet of the human faces seen in a Paris’s subway station in which the faces turned variously toward light and darkness. The poet, Ezra Pound, was famous for advocating free meter and a more economical use of words and images in poetic expression. He is also one of the leaders of the Imagist Movement of poetry. W ritten in 1913, In a Station of the Metro is always acknowledg ed as the best imagist poem.(2)This poem is in a succinct style which just has 14 words inthe whole poem. However, the images in this poem give us t he interior meaning. The images are apparition, faces, petals a nd bough. He uses two lines to describe a vivid picture for us. The first line is narration and the second is expression. What does the apparition mean? One is “suddenly appear” and the other is “something like the ghost”. This word nicely captures the immediate impression left on the poet’s mind and the po werful emotional impact he felt in that situation. Its associatio n with ghosts also invokes a vivid view of the people coming out of the dark Metro as if they are specters ascending from t he underground world. We can easily touch that the faces in t he subway are depressed. At this time, Pound saw a child’s lo vely face, and then another. All the world seems changed. Th e lovely faces mixed with the depressed faces. And the poet a rouses a complex of joy and fear which is hard to tell from ea ch other. Of course, in this poem, petals indicate faces. When we mention petals, we also think about smiling or some beaut iful thing. The subway is just like the bough, although it is we t, dark and black, we still should use love and smiling to face them. Actually, Pound wants to tell us a lot of things in this p oem, but he does not offer too many details so that we could have a rich imagination from the images.(3)Although there just are two lines in this poem, Pound usesa lot of figures of speech. I have mentioned that apparition has two means which is a typical pun. The petals obviously indi cate the lovely faces, so it is a metaphor. And the first line and the second line are using the contrast. With the help of figures of speech, the poem is full of Pound’s emotion. In a Station of the Metro is not a metrical poem, but it does not mean there is no musical beauty. Repeating it, you can feel the beauty of music through it’s repetition of different vowels and consonants, such as /p/ and /au/. Especially the repetition of /e/ in the second line emphasizes its sense of music.2.What is Ernest Hemingway’s style?“iceberg principle”Think of an iceberg: one eighth of an iceberg is above the water. All of the rest is underneath the water. The same is true with Hemingway's writing.His sentences only give one small bit of the meaning. The rest is implied. One must go very deep beneath the surface to understand the full meaning of his writing.His lean, economical style of writing is striking:•concrete, specific, common-found words•simple, short, even ungrammatical sentences•direct, clear and positive style, yet highly connotative●Colloquial style: influence from Mark Twain and hisjournalist career●The Nobel Prize Committee praised Hemingway had“powerful style forming mastery of the art of modern narration”.3. What is the theme of Desire Under the Elms?Desire under the Elms reveals tragedy in money dominated society, and how people’s natural emotion is distorted. They are greedy, cunning, evil, selfish and hypocritical, and they have irrational desire and actions, which eventually caused the tragedy of the life. Eugene O’Neill wrote this play not only for us to appreciate, but also lead us to think about its practical meaning.4. What are the symbols in Catch-22?⏹Chocolate-Covered Cotton⏹The Soldier in White⏹Aerial PhotographsI Chocolate-Covered CottonAided by Yossarian, Milo comes up with the idea of selling chocolate-covered cotton to the government after he discoversthat there is a glut of cotton in the market and that he cannot sell his own cotton. Milo's product hides the lack of substance beneath an enticing exterior, showing the way in which bureaucracy can be fooled by appearances and is unable to measure actual substance or real merit.II The Soldier in WhiteThe soldier in white, a bandage-wrapped, faceless, nameless body that lies in the hospital in the first chapter of the novel, represents the way the army treats men as interchangeable objects. When, months after his death, he is replaced by another, identical soldier in white, everyone assumes it is the same person.III Aerial PhotographsWhen the men go on bombing missions, they often later learn that the real purpose of the mission was either to make an explosion that would be beautiful when it showed up on aerial photographs or to clear out foliage so that better aerial photography will be possible. The photographs themselves, then, stand for the way in which the dehumanization of war—in this case, the detachment of the upper levels of military bureaucracy from the tragedy of war—allows for its horrors to be seen merely for their aesthetic effects.5. What is Harlem Renaissance?⏹Shortly after WWI, a black intelligentsia appeared on thescene. They rebelled against the values of their fathers and their way of life.⏹The Harlem Renaissance was a cultural movement thatspanned the 1920s and 1930s. At the time, it was known as the "New Negro Movement", named after the 1925 anthology by Alain Locke. Though it was centered in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City, many French-speaking black writers from African and Caribbean colonies who lived in Paris were also influenced by the Harlem Renaissance.⏹The Harlem Renaissance is unofficially recognized to havespanned from about 1919 until the early or mid 1930s.⏹Many of its ideas lived on much longer. The zenith of this"flowering of Negro literature", as James Weldon Johnson preferred to call the Harlem Renaissance, was placed between 1924 (the year that Opportunity: A Journal of Negro Life hosted a party for black writers where many white publishers were in attendance) and 1929 (the year of the stock market crash and the beginning of the Great Depression).。
