There were a number of young women who were very friendly to her, but there were few with whom she was really intimate. The only person who stood out in her mind was certain Mary Calligan... who had attended school with Aileen in former years and was now the teacher in one of local schools. (Dreiser) 6. Dick Stroeve, giving up his work entirely, nursed Strickland with tenderness and sympathy. He was dexterous to make him comfortable, and he exercised cunning of which I should never have thought him capable to induce him to take medicine prescribed by a doctor. I shall never forget a tactful patience with which he persuaded him to take nourishment. (Maugham) 7. A reddish, fitful light was coming from the window above. Great God! His picture gallery! He ran to foot of the stairs that led up to it. Stealthy sound, scent of burning much more emphatic, staggered him. He hurried up stairs and pulled open the door. Heavens! Far end of gallery, at an extreme left comer of the house, was on fire. (Galsworthy) 8. Rosa knocked several times without getting any answer and had stepped back in to the pavement to look up at closely curtained windows when the door opened very quietly to gap of few inches and a pale face peered out. Rosa sprang forwards with such alacrity that the owner of the face immediately shut the door again, and Rosa could hear a chain being fixed. With this additional safeguard the door opened once more to a narrow slit and Rosa could see one pale blue eye looking out at her. (Murdoch) 9. But though so bad painter he had a very delicate feeling for the art, and to go with him to the picture galleries was rare treat. I think 1 have never known the man whose judgement was surer. And he was better educated than most painters. He was not ignorant of a kindred arts, and his taste for music and literature gave depth and variety to his comprehension of painting. To the young man like myself his advice and guidance was of incomparable value. (Maugham)

10. Volterras had a six-room apartment with the hall which was like a cord holding all small rooms together. The kitchen was nearest to the front door, then came three bedrooms, and a bath, a dining room, and, at far end, the living room. Despite smallness of the rooms, they had neat cosy quality that gave Erik comfortable feeling. (Wilson) 11. Mrs. Pryor looked round her, and spoke of neighbourhood as she had once before seen it long ago. She... compared its aspect with that of other parts of England: revealing in quiet, unconscious touches of description sense of picturesque, appreciation of beautiful or commonplace, power of comparing wild with cultured... that gave to her discourse � graphic charm as pleasant as it was unpretending. (Ch. Bronte) 12. They found themselves in a matted hall, lined almost to ceiling with the pictures; through this they were conducted to a large parlour, with magnificent fire in the grate; a most cheerful of rooms it appeared as whole, and when you came to examine details, enlivening effect was not diminished. There was no splendour, but there was taste everywhere, taste, you would have said, of travelled man, a scholar, and a gentleman. The series of Italian views decked the walls; each of them was a specimen of true art; a connoisseur had selected them. (Ch. Bronte) 13. Mrs. Dubedut is __ arrestingly good-looking young woman. She has something of _grace and romance of a wild creature, with good deal of elegance and dignity of a fine lady. She has a figure on which any dress would look well, and carries herself with unaffected distinction of woman who has never in her life suffered from those doubts and fears as to her social position which spoil mannens of the most middling people. (Shaw) 14. "I know," said Darnay, "that between you and Miss Manette there is affection so unusual, so touching, so belonging to circumstances in which it has been nurtured, that it can have few parallels, even in tenderness between the father and child." (Dickens) 15. It is hard that the man's exterior should tally so little sometimes with his soul. Dirk Stroeve had passion of Romeo in the body of Sir Toby Belch. He had a sweet and generous nature, and yet was always blundering; real feeling for what was beautiful and capacity to create only what was commonplace; peculiar delicacy of sentiment and gross manners. He could exercise tact when dealing with affairs of others, but none when dealing with his own. What q cruel practical joke the old Nature played when she flung so many contradictory elements together, and left man face to face with perplexing callousness of the Universe. (Maugham) 16. Charmian, who had taken great fancy to Ellen, spoke of her warmly. At last, she felt, here was a suitable wife for me; and she did her best to jockey me into the marriage. An experience of worrying about my future was soothing one to her, taking her mind off her own troubles. (Hansford Johnson)
