o see how he applies his theories about drama to his own plays. Last night, I saw the student production of Our Town. It's too ex citing. To Wilder, a wonderful stage display is neither necessary nor suitable in a dramatic presentation. There certainly wasn't any impressive performance in Our Town. In fact, in the play there are hardly any objects or pieces of furniture are used at all. While I walked into the theater, I thought I had gone on the wrong night, since there was nothing but a bare stage, not even a curtain. A simple setting like that is exactly what Wilder insists upon. At the start of the play, the stage manager who was also the narrator, put a table and chair on either side of the stage and said they represented the houses of two families. All the other objects used in the play were imaginary.

W: I think I'd really enjoy seeing Our Town.

M: You would, especially since you've read that essay. There will be another production of it tonight and one more on Sunday afternoon. I hope you can appreciate it.

What is the woman reading for her theater course？

A．The play Our Town.

B．An essay by Thornton Wilder.

C．A critical review of Our Town.

D．A short story about New Hampshire.

y. For weeks my mother had helped me practice my lines. But once on stage, every word disappeared from my head. Then my teacher told me she bad written a narrator's part for the play, and asked me to change roles. Though I didn't tell my mother what had happened that day, she sensed my unhappiness and asked if I wanted to take a Walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day. We could see dandelions popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with bits of gold. I watched my mother carelessly bend down by one of the bunches. "I think I am going to dig up all these weeds," she said. "From now on, we'll have only roses in this garden. "

"But I like dandelions," I protested. "All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions!" My mother looked at me seriously. "Yes, every flower gives pleasure in its own way, doesn't it？" she asked thoughtfully. I nodded. "And that is true of people, too," she added.

When I realized that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry and told her the truth.

"But you will be a beautiful narrator," she said, reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.

Over the next few weeks, with her continuous encouragement, I learned to take pride in the role. The big day finally came. A few minutes before the play, my teacher came over to me. "Your mother asked me to give this to you," she said, handing me a dandelion. After the play, I took home the flower, laughing that I was perhaps the only person who would keep such a weed.
