Showing that luo is clever and witty at the beginning of the play
|
"Mozart is thinking of chairman mao luo broke in. The audicity! but it worked.
|
Another quote showing that Luo had a lot of power at the beginning of the text
|
Nonetheless, our home soon became the focal point of the village, thanks to another phoenix, a smaller version, miniature almost, and rather more earthbound, whose master was my friend Luo.
|
Again showing luo is extremely smart
|
Luo had a brainwave: with his little finger he slid the hands of the clock back by one hour
|
First sign of luo not being as amazing as had first been made out
|
But Luo couldn't play volin. I reflected, he wasn't much good at basketball or football either. In fact he didn't posses a single skill that might help him become the three in a thousand.
|
Luos talent
|
The only thing luo was really good at was telling stories. A pleasing talent to be sure. but a marginal one, with little future in it
|
More signs of weakness
|
"even his poor diet, insomnia and constant worrying about the future had not stopped him from growing
|
Luo thinks that he is too good for the little seamstress
|
" she not civilized, at least not enough for me."
|
The little coal mine - the weakness of luo becomes a prominent part of the story
|
" i was sure it was luo who was crying in the dark""Luo fell ill"
|
We also see luo immediately effected by the power of literature
|
"we made love there, against the trunk. Standing."
|
Final display of the clever and witty luo
|
" i replied in my shaky mandarin that i didn't know. But my interpreter told the old miller that they were marks of real revolutionary cadre
|
Luo begins to lose his witty edge
|
Wouldn't it be nicer to sit outside faltered luo, his nerves beginning to fray
|
Luo tells us about his fear of heights
|
"you and the little seamstress would have run right over it... but i had to get down on my hands and knees and crawl i was that scared."
|
Luo is looked upon as higher
|
"Luo my beloved commander"
|
Luo is delighted that the seamstress has become civilized however now she is too civilized for him.
|
"Luo was delighted with her transformation"
