Vocab Sentances Unit...3?

I abominate people who are mean to other people for no reason, they make me really mad.

My friend that moved to New York went through acculturation when she had to get used to people in NY.

It was adventitious when my mother won 1000 dollars on a scratch lottery ticket.

I believe I should be ascribed for creating the improv team, Katie and the Hoods.

Some teachers have a very circuitous way of teaching. Sometimes I wish they would just get to the point.

I commiserated with my friend after her Mom had passed away.

People who enjoin a lot are very annoying because they think they are taking charge for good reasons but really they are just making people mad.

When I am in statistics class my teacher tries to expedite but, it usually just ends up confusing us even more than before.

I try to expiate for things that I have done especially, if it involves any of my good friends.

I was in ferment when I found out that I made honor roll and my parents were excited as well.

When somebody hit my car they said that it was inadvertent and that he would pay more attention to the road next time.

The dent was so nominal that I could not even see it.

I am very noncommittal when it comes to knowing what I want for Christmas.

A lot of political figures peculate while in office, they steal a lot of money.

I have a proclivity to punch any person in the face who doesn't watch Glee.

I try to maintain sangfroid in intense situations and I usually can keep my cool.

I cannot be very seditious considering my father is a Police Officer.

The piece of wood was so tenuous that when I bent it it broke in half.

I can be a bit vitriolic sometimes but, everyone has sarcasm hidden somewhere inside them.

I wish I could take back time.
Go back to the time when I was in my prime.

I would make sure that I would get some cred.

I wish I could make a change in my life.
Do more for my boys and give love to my wife.

I wish I wouldn't have ruined it all.
I was the cause of my families down-fall.

Most Important Scene

I think that the most important scene in Death of a Salesman is the scene where Biff catches his dad cheating with the woman. If this scene hadn't happened Biff wouldn't have such a distaste for his Father. Willy would have a better relationship with Biff and he would be a lot happier. This is also important because it gives one of the big reasons why there is so much conflict in this play.

Reading Strategies

1. I want to find out if Willy dies the actual death of a salesman.

2. I think that Biff and Happy won't get the big job they want.

3. I have a picture of 2 men with a woman in between them..One man is macho and hot and one of them is scrawny and weird. It is from The Bridal Party

4. In this part Willy is talking with his boys and talking to Biff about the big game on Saturday and how he will score a touch down just for his dad. Also, Bernard comes in and he talks to Biff about the Regents and how Biff should study for them.


5. Why doesn't Linda do or say anything to Will? Why doesn't Biff say anything to Linda about the affair between Willy and the woman?

6. When Happy was under pressure to do well at the game it reminds me of when my parents put me under pressure about grades.

7.
Willy: Determined, Selfish, Strong-Willed, Jealous, Schizo-Like, Stubborn, Longing for popularity
Charlie: Self-Sufficient, Successful, Helpful, Well-Liked,

8. Simonizing (Death of a Salesmen pg. 20)-to polish with or as if with wax
I simonized my car with Turtle Wax.

I think that Willy says things to Charlie because he needs his pride. Throughout the whole play Willy has had to deal with different people always being better than him. (Ben, Charlie ect.) and he says things like "A man who cannot handle tools is not a man" to help him feel better about himself. Willy takes things too personally. He gets insulted when people give him money and he gets insulted when people try to help him and he got insulted when Charlie gave offered him a job. Although, He didn't get insulted when Ben offered a job he did say that he had a perfectly fine job here even though he knew that things weren't turning out so great. He didn't want Ben or anybody to think he wasn't good enough or manly enough. As I said he needs his pride because, it's the only thing he has left. He lost his job, his favorite son and, because of the mistakes his made his family is in the hole financially.He needs to defend himself by trying to make people feel bad and calling people "Disgusting". Ultimately Willy is jealous of his brother that's why he says things to him but, also his pride is in the way of right thinking.
