23.By John

The text I am going to analise written by John O’Hara.

This story about punctual Laura. She met her love Frank after 10 years. They discussed not consisting meeting many years ago and was found out, that he is not guilty in their separation but she is guilty. Because she hasn't arrived on a meeting.

Hyperbole: He was very polite, very attentive as though, every afternoon at four he greeted young women who were walking out on their husbands because they had fallen madly in love with someone else.

Repetitions: wait//wait/wait; why/why: I/I/I

Epithet: standing over her with his charming smile/said in flat voice

Phraseology: better never than late

Inversion: was always that way

The main idea of the text is don't do something about what you can regret

I think that it is a very sad story about circumstances which stay two lives for 10 years have left.

25. Stylistic Differentiation of the English Vocabulary.

1.Stylistic Differentiation of the English Vocabulary.

The three main layers in the whole word-stock are following, e.g. literary, neutral and colloquial.

The literary layer is bookish. The colloquial layer has spoken character. The neutral is universal.

Example: infant, child, kid. (L. it will be…N. it will be…C. it will be…)

There are subgroups in the literary vocabulary:1.common literary2. terms and learned words3.poetical words (steed-horse) 4.archaic words (yeoman)5.barbarisms and foreign words (chic)6.literary coinages (neologisms)

The common literary, neutral and common colloquial words belong to Standard English Vocabulary.

26. Lautisse Paints Again

I want to tell you a few words about story “Lautisse Paints Again” written by Smith. The story is about well-know artist. He met with a family on a ship. Nobody recognized him and he said to this family who he was. There was the fence hear the house. And Lautisse painted it. This fence was sold for very great many and Lautisse again became famous.

I like this text. It's very funny because the joke of lifThe Vergee is that this fence was sold so much money.

The main idea of this text is pun.

Sd:

repetition-he asked

hyperboly-was probable the world's best living painter

perifrasise-never touch the brush again

metaphor-coat of paint

litota-he hadn't enjoued himself so much in years.
