Reading Lolita 作业 I

Before next meeting in September we only need to read:

In Part I -- Lolita -- the first 1-4小节(about 18 pages in my trade paper back edition. You may find yours slightly different. The last sentence ends with something like this : "They kept that arrangement, faithfully, to the end. It became representative of their emotional boundaries and personal relations. And so began our first class"

That is only a very short introduction of the group. The homework for everyone is to find your part and write a paragraph or two of yourself (the characters)

If you still don't know who you are let me refresh:

1. Azar (Professor) =阿颯兒 (教授) -- Alice, 萤火虫

2. Nassrin (Cheshire cat) =娜絲琳 (柴郡猫)-- 大雁

3. Manna (poet) =瑪纳 (诗人)-- 水竹

4. Mahshid (The Lady) = 瑪荷希 (夫人)-- 阿兰,雪

5. Yassi (the youngest) -- 雅西 (最年轻的)-- 竹林子

6. Azin (The wild one) = 阿金 (野丫头)-- 紫罗兰

7. Mitra (The calmest) = 密德拉 (最冷静的) -- 姥姥

8. Sanaz (vacillated) = 沙娜姿 (摇摆不定) -- 老牛

This is the homework for this week. You can each put your homework in the Comments or in the Document in google. Everyone is required to participate, otherwise ...

姥姥的作业也太言简意赅了,书上没有说最平静的Mitra讲话简炼得只有两个字吧? :-)
