W: Henry, what are you doing?
M: I have been trying to solve this physics problem for the last half hour, and I still have no idea how to do it.
W: When do you have to turn it in?
M: It is due at the end of this week.
W: Well, it is only Monday. Why don’t you get some after-school tutoring tomorrow?
M: I have to sign up for it first. I guess I will go to sign up for the Wednesday session tomorrow.
W: You should reread the chapter before you show up for the session. It will help you understand the subject matter better.
M: OK, I will do that.
W: Now that your problem is solved, I need you to lend me a hand with my problem.
M: What’s up?
W: I need to give a presentation about Hemingway in my literature class next Friday, but I have no idea how to do it.
M: Well, I suggest that you collect material from the Internet first and then arrange it in a logical order.
W: What kind of material should I search?
M: For example, Hemingway’s biographies, his masterpieces and his writing style.
W: That sounds fine, but a bit cliché. To get a high score on this presentation, I have to take a unique angle,am I right?
M: Definitely.Well, you can pick one of his classics and work on it in detail, or you can just focus on his writing style. You know his economical and understated style has a strong influence on 20th-century fiction.
W: That is a good idea. And I happen to know the Nobel Prize in Literature 1954 was awarded to him particularly for his writing style.
M: Right. And you may also include some excerpts from his best works in your presentation and have a textual analysis of them from the angle of the writing style.
W: Could you recommend some of his best works to me?
M: Well, The Old Man and the Sea is considered his top work and Nobel Prize went to him because of this. Besides this, I recommend The Sun Also Rises, his first novel, and For Whom the Bell Tolls, which is based on the Spanish Civil War.
W: I will write them down in my notebook. How about his short stories? I heard that some of them are neatly written.
M: Sure. Many critics say that Hemingway’s short stories are even better than his novels in terms of its distinct modernism.
W: And Hemingway himself coined a phrase to explain his style to readers— the “Iceberg Theory”. What does that exactly mean?
M: It means that his writings are deceptively simple. The deep and almost untraceable connotation is well beneath the surface meaning of his novels.
W: Wow, you are indeed an expert on Hemingway. Thank you again for your information.
