现代大学英语精读2Unit2ABcomparison
现代大学英语精读2Unit2ABcomparisonUnit 2 comparisonText A Say YesText B Arrangement in Black and WhiteThe main topic of Unit2 is the problem between black and white, both texts concentrate on this point. And through attentive reading, I find the language skills in two articles are similar to each other. They both descript the dialog between people as vividly as the real life circumstances. And though this live conversation, the character is unfolded before the reader’s eyes, and helps us to understand the article better. But there are also differences between the two, for example, the writing angle and the general position adopted by the characters.As for the writing angle, Text A happens be tween a couple’s normal talking, though the article introduces the different opinions the couple take towards the problem that should black and white get into marriage, the real contradiction is “will you still marry me if I were black”. In this perspectiv e, the black problem lead this couple to gaze at their relationship but not really be discussed. Text B happens on a party where a woman wants to be introduced to a colored singer, and then they have a conversation concerns about black.For the second diff erence, the woman in Text A doesn’t care about the color problem, she thinks lots of thing above racism such as true love, while the man thinks the because of the culture difference and the background, the two can’t understand each other.

Racism
• Definition: Racism is prejudice or discrimination based on the belief that race is the primary factor determining human traits and abilities. Racism includes the belief that genetic or inherited differences produce the inherent superiority or inferiority of one race over another. • Institutional racism: e.g. the Jim Crow laws in the US from 1876 to 1965 mandating segregation in all public facilities in the southern states of the former Confederacy with a supposedly “separate but equal” status for the black Americans; officially overruled with the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. • Overt and subtle racism: The Civil Rights Movement did away much overt racism, but racism persists in many subtle forms, in many aspects and on many levels.

His Style
• A direct writing style, obeying the “show, don’t tell” maxim, leaving much to the reader’s intuition • Non-dramatic, focusing more on the psychological dimensions of a character in dilemmas than on plot development • Often understated, forcing readers to become engaged in the collection of strands that will result in the full comprehension of a story. • Exploring alienation, the nature of lying, and the essential foundations of relationships • Hoping to instruct and inspire people to triumph over their situations through character change and development
