我对这首诗主要有三个问题 恩 我有把我的答案一起附上 可是这是我第一次读英文诗 所以其实也不知道我在答什麽@@ 想请各位帮我看一下 谢谢 文章我附在问题後面 1.想请问一下这篇主要想表达的意思是什麽? 这篇文章的作者是在乡村长大的,以我的看法, 我觉得这篇主要是作者在抒发自己跟邻居的社会阶级上的差别, 不然为什麽会把狗大便从邻居那移到自己的牵牛花上?? 可是　最後一段我不知道　他主要要表达的意思 2.Why do you suppose Ciardi focuses on this particular incident to make a comment on the suburbans? What is the speaker's attitude toward suburban life? 我的答案是 people thought the villagers is nice and wouldn't be particular about trifle, but still have exception 可是还是觉得可能不大齐全恩 :) 而attitude是 He was disgusted with suburban life. 3.How does the speaker transform Mrs. Friar into a symbolic figure of the suburban? 透过Mrs.Friar很mean? 想请各位帮我看一下 谢谢^^ SUBURBAN by John Ciardi Yesterday Mrs. Friar phoned. "Mr. Ciardi, how do you do?" she said. "I am sorry to say this is isn't exactly a social call. The fact is your dog has just deposited--forgive me-- a large repulsive object in my petunias." I thought to ask, "Have you checked the rectal grooving for positive I. D.?" My dog, as it happened, was in Vermont with my son, who had gone fishing-- if that's what one does with a girl, two cases of beer, and a borrowed camper. I guessed I'd get no trout. But why lose out on organic gold for a wise crack? "Yes, Mrs. Friar," I said, "I understand." "Most kind of you," she said. "Not at all," said. I went with a spade. She pointed, looking away. "I always have loved dogs," she said, "but really!" I scooped it up and bowed. "The animal of it. I hope this hasn't upset you, Mrs. Friar." "Not really," she said, "but really!" I bore the turd across the line to my own petunias and buried it till the glorious resurrection when even these suburbs shall give up their dead. --
