late as the 1940s.

Key: [ A ]

II. Writing Strategies
1. Flashback:
A flashback (闪回) is a technique used by writers. It is often used in movies, television and
literature. It involves a character remembering something that happened to him in the past.
Activity: Besides Paragraph 2, you’re expected to find out some other paragraphs that
contain this technique.
Tips: Besides Paragraph 2, Paragraphs 6, 8 and 9 contain or involve flashbacks.
Here is a movie clip from The Bourne Ultimatum, in which the technique of flashback is
used.
2. Symbolism
Symbolism in art tries to show not what is real but what could stand instead of what exists. It
deals with ideas that aren't physical, mostly.
e.g. Moby-Dick: representation of an unknowable God;
Scarlet Letter: The scarlet letter “A” is meant to be a symbol of shame, but instead it
becomes a powerful symbol of identity to Hester.
2 Activity: Find some examples of symbolism in the text.
Tips: “summer brightness” (Paragraph 8)
“corolla of dazzling whiteness” (Paragraph 9)
“white mottled marble” (Paragraph 15)
The repeated “white” in the last paragraph, and it reveals the phony democracy of the
United States and the false freedom of colored people, which drove our writer mad and
indignant.
III. Language Work
1. Explain the underlined part in each sentence in your own words.
1) The first time I went to Washington D.C. was on the edge of the
at the beginning of
2) Preparations were in the air around our house before school was even over.
the whole family were already either actually busy making preparations or enjoying the
ambience
3) In fact, my first trip to Washington was a mobile feast.
a large enjoyable meal on the train
4) …as if we had never been Black before.
as if we had never been mistreated for being black.
5) My parents wouldn't speak of this injustice, not because they had contributed to it.
had partially caused
6) My fury was not going to be acknowledged by a like fury.
was not going to be openly sympathized with by people displaying a similar anger
2. Fill in each blank with one of the two words from each pair in their appropriate forms and
note the difference of meaning between them.
bruise scar
Explanation: bruise indicates an injury of the surface flesh, caused by a blow that does not
necessarily break the skin and that results in a marked skin; the word can also suggest the
tendency to turn black-and-blue from small impacts. Scar refers to the forming of a mark over a
healed wound or suggests the doing of damage that will leave a lasting mark.
1) Be sure to store these tropical fruits carefully as they bruise easily.
2) She continued massaging her right foot, which was bruised and aching.
3) He was scarred for life during a pub fight.
4) This is something that's going to scar him forever.
dampen soak
Explanation: Dampen is to make or become somewhat wet, emphasizing the moist condition
that results. In a figurative sense, the word means to depress. Soak means to wet thoroughly,
implying immersion. To soak something is to place it in liquid and leave it long enough for the
liquid to act upon it.
1) Nothing quite beats the luxury of soaking in a long and hot bath at the end of a tiring day.
2) Dampen the stamp at the back and stick it on the envelope; there you are.
