A lighting struck a tall tree at theedge of the field. Claixta put her hands to her eyes, and with a cry, staggered

10、ird person point of viewIII. Character:1. Bibi: He is a little child. When it was going to rain, he worried about his mother. We can see he is a childish and lovely boy.2. Bibi 's father: He loves his mother and his son. In the novel, h e purchased a can of shrimps that his wife likes. And befor
11、e he went bake home, he stopped to clean the dirt on clothes and thought about explanation to his wife. So, we can see that he is a hen-pecked husba nd. And he is considerable.3. Bibi 's mother, Calixta: She is a woman with a little traditional _o2欢迎下载精品文档chastity ideas. From the novel, a lighti
12、ng struck a tall tree and at that moment Ale 缶's arm encircled Calixta. But she escaped.And she is a womanwhopursuits the free sexual right and thinks little about her husband. And also, she is a woman whcwill abandon traditional chastity ideas easily. Because finally, she betrayed her husband.
13、And moreover, she was not passive.4. Alc e Laballi 4e: He is hypocritical. In this novel, he have betrayed his wife. However, he wrote his wife a love letter and showed his miss to his wife.He is also a man without traditional moral rules. Calixta has married to others and he also has his own wife.
14、But, he seduces Calixta.IV. Setting:The major setting of "the storm "was in the end of the 19 century and the beginning of 20 century. Many new things began to happen in America. The storm is a symbol of the big change of the society and also the baptism of many traditions. The storm means
15、 the coming of women's awaking and women's movement.V. Style:Kate Chopin uses much irony in this short novel, such as verbal i rony and structural irony, in order to conceal the fact and achieve s pecial artistic effect. So, it is complex, confusing and difficult to grasp the writer 's i
16、deas. About structural irony, it appears in the short novel many times. Such as, Bibi's fatherbuy shrimps for his wife and his wife betrayshim at home, Alc e goesinside without fearful and Bobinot goes home fearfully. And the most dramatic thing is that we readers have knew Alce betrays his wife
17、.However, he writes a love letter to his wife that night. So, all these satirize Alc田's hypocrisy and his wife 's naive and foolish. Then, the last paragraph of this novel is used verbal irony. After the storm passed, everyone wa s happy. On the contrary, it isn 't happiness but invisible damage and cheat.For me, I think this novel uses irony to tell readers that getting rid of traditional moral rules and pursuing the free sexual right will bring muchdamageto people. Actually, the writer is opposed to this kind of women s movement.VI. Theme:Get rid
