hi, i'm Lisa. This is my first time say something here :) well...i am a college student from english department. In this semester, we start to study some fiction. i find out that i have difficulty in reading literature. Everytime after i read a story or a fiction, i have no idea what it wants to tell me :( (by the way, we use the book named" 20th centry american short stories") i don't even know why those characters act like that in the stories When my teacher asks questions, the only thing i can do is keep silent :( because i really don't know what the authou wants to express (sometimes, i think it's because the lack of background understanding, such as native american's traditional culture) i will be appreciate if there's someone who can tell me how to read these stories ^^ thanks -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.173.142.224
