Who's that Pokémon? -- Daisy Miller Flashcards

Q

“Will you give me a lump of sugar?” he asked in a sharp, hard little voice—a voice immature and yet, somehow, not young. [CHARACTER] glanced at the small table near him, on which his coffee service rested, and saw that several morsels of sugar remained. “Yes, you may take one,” he answered; “but I don’t think sugar is good for little boys.”

“I’m going up the Alps,” replied [CHARACTER]. “This is the way!” And he gave another little jump, scattering the pebbles about Winterbourne’s ears.

Q

Who is the young girl?

The young girl glanced over the front of her dress and smoothed out a knot or two of ribbon. Then she rested her eyes upon the prospect again. “Well, I guess you had better leave it somewhere,” she said after a moment.

Q

What is Daisy Millers real name?

“Her name is Daisy Miller!” cried the child. “But that isn’t her real name; that isn’t her name on her cards.”
“It’s a pity you haven’t got one of my cards!” said Miss Miller.
“Her real name is [BLANK],” the boy went on.

Q

Winterbourne reflected for an instant as lucidly as possible— “we” could only mean Miss Daisy Miller and himself. This program seemed almost too agreeable for credence; he felt as if he ought to kiss the young lady’s hand. Possibly he would have done so and quite spoiled the project, but at this moment another person, presumably [CHARACTER], appeared. A tall, handsome man, with superb whiskers, wearing a velvet morning coat and a brilliant watch chain, approached Miss Miller, looking sharply at her companion. “Oh, [CHARACTER]!” said Miss Miller with the friendliest accent.

“Oh, well, we’ll go some day,” said Miss Miller. And she
gave him a smile and turned away. She put up her parasol and
walked back to the inn beside Eugenio. [character] stood
looking after her; and as she moved away, drawing her muslin
furbelows over the gravel, said to himself that she had the
tournure of a princess.

Q

“And a courier?” said [CHARACTER]. “Oh yes, I have observed them. Seen them—heard them—and kept out of their
way.” Mrs. Costello was a widow with a fortune; a person of
much distinction, who frequently intimated that, if she were
not so dreadfully liable to sick headaches, she would probably
have left a deeper impress upon her time.

Q

“They are very common,” [CHARACTER] declared. “They
are the sort of Americans that one does one’s duty by not—not
accepting.”
“Ah, you don’t accept them?” said the young man.
“I can’t, my dear Frederick. I would if I could, but I can’t.”

Q

Who is “She”?

“She has that charming look that they all have,” his aunt resumed. “I can’t think where they pick it up; and she dresses in perfection—no, you don’t know how well she dresses. I can’t think where they get their taste.”

Q

Winterbourne listened with interest to these disclosures;
they helped him to make up his mind about [CHARACTER]. Evidently she was rather wild. “Well,” he said, “I am not a
courier, and yet she was very charming to me.”
“You had better have said at first,” said Mrs. Costello with
dignity, “that you had made her acquaintance.”
