English 11

Please answer questions 6 - 9 on the second "Hills Like White Elephants" sheet that I distributed today.  I'll do a homework check on Monday.

Also, please note down our first five vocabulary words, which are as follows:
  1. to loathe – to feel intense dislike or disgust for something 
  2. contention –  (1) a heated disagreement; (2) an assertion, esp made in an argument 
  3. to emerge – (1) to become apparent, important or known; (2) to come into view 
  4. transience – lasting only for a short time/fleeting/momentary/passing 
  5. to digress – to leave the main subject temporarily in speech or writing 
There will be a quiz in a few weeks once we reach 30 class vocabulary terms.
