VISION OF GOOD ONE CHERISHES AND THE ENTHUSIASM THAT PUSHES ONE TO SEEK ITS FULFILLMENT REGARDLESS OF OBSTACLES. BY FAITH I BY FAITH 。其一, 詩中選的詞排成兩個豎列,宛如夫婦雙方, 中間隔了一張網(wǎng),正在一來一去的擊球; 其二,詩中選的詞基本都是單音節(jié)詞,讀 來機械單調(diào),很容易讓人聯(lián)想到這對夫婦 枯燥乏味,缺乏情趣的生活;其三,詩中 的兩個關(guān)鍵詞 tennis 和 between被拆開了, 分別置于兩個豎列中,隱喻兩人的感情世 界已被一張無形的網(wǎng)隔開,不再融為一體。 一片葉子從樹上飄落。他的詩歌給讀者美的享受 , 同時也 留給讀者許多遐想的空間。 用逗號來連接 came, saw, conquered三個過程 , 從而在語法上給三者相同的地位。 Exclamation 1 .
