The water is warm too, for it has slipped twinkling over the yellow sands in the sunlight before reaching the narrow pool. On one side of the river the golden foothill slopes curve up to the strong and rocky Gabilan Mountains, but on the valley side the water is lined with trees—willows fresh and green with every spring, carrying in their lower leaf junctures the debris of the winter’s flooding; and sycamores with mottled, white, recumbent limbs and branches that arch over the pool. On the sandy bank under the trees the leaves lie deep and so crisp that a lizard makes a great skittering if he runs among them. Rabbits come out of the brush to sit on the sand in the evening, and the damp flats are covered with the night tracks of‘coons, and with the spreadpads of dogs from the ranches, and with the split-wedge tracks of deer that come to drink in the dark. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>There is a path through the willows and among the sycamores, a path beaten hard by boys coming down from the ranches to swim in the deep pool, and beaten hard by tramps who come wearily down from the highway in the evening to jungle-up near water. In &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>front of the low horizontal limb of a giant sycamore there is an ash pile made by many fires; the limb is worn smooth by men who have sat on it. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Evening of a hot day started the little wind to moving among the leaves. The shade climbed up the hills toward the top. On the sandbanks the rabbits sat as quietly as little gray sculptured stones. And then from the direction of the state highway came the sound of footsteps on crisp sycamore leaves. The rabbits hurried noiselessly for cover. A stilted heron labored up into the air and pounded down river. For a moment the place was lifeless, and then two men emerged from the path and came into the opening by the green pool. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>They had walked in single file down the path, and even in the open one stayed behind the other. Both were dressed in denim trousers and in denim coats with brass buttons. Both wore black, shapeless hats and both carried tight blanket rolls slung over their shoulders. The first man was small and quick, dark of face, with restless eyes and sharp, strong features. Every part of him was defined: small, strong hands, slender arms, a thin and bony nose. Behind him walked his opposite, a huge man, shapeless of face, with large, pale eyes, and wide, sloping shoulders; and he walked &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>heavily, dragging his feet a little, the way a bear drags his paws. His arms did not swing at his sides, but hung loosely. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>The first man stopped short in the clearing, and the follower nearly ran over him. He took off his hat and wiped the sweat-band with his forefinger and snapped the moisture off. His huge companion dropped his blankets and flung himself down and drank from the surface of the green pool; drank with long gulps, snorting into the water like a horse. The small man stepped nervously beside him. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>“Lennie!” he said sharply.“Lennie, for God’ sakes don’t drink so much.” Lennie continued to snort into the pool. The small man leaned over and shook him by the shoulder.“Lennie. You gonna be sick like you was last night.” &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Lennie dipped his whole head under, hat and all, and then he sat up on the bank and his hat dripped down on his blue coat and ran down his back.“That’s good,” he said.“You drink some, George. You take a good big drink.” He smiled happily. &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>George unslung his bindle and dropped it gently on the bank.“Iain’t sure it’s good water,” he said.“Looks kinda scummy.” &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>Lennie dabbled his big paw in the water and wiggled his fingers so the water arose in little splashes; rings widened across the pool to the other side and came back again. Lennie watched them go.“Look, George. Look what I done.” &nbsp;\u003C/p>\u003Cp>George knelt beside the pool and drank from his hand with quick scoops. “Tastes all right,” he admitted.“Don’t really seem to be running,\u003C/p>","cbCaitg6cQZNI5J0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitg6cQZNI5J0","pdf",313581,134,"English","# Setting and Arrival\n## The Salinas River Scene\n# George and Lennie\n## Drinking and Warning\n## Work, Destination, and Memory","[{\"question\":\"Who are the two men introduced at the opening?\",\"answer\":\"The story opens with George, a smaller quick man, and Lennie, a huge companion who drinks heavily and needs constant reminders.\"},{\"question\":\"Where does the opening scene take place?\",\"answer\":\"It takes place a few miles south of Soledad along the Salinas River, near a green pool lined with willows and sycamores.\"},{\"question\":\"What conflict is established through George and Lennie’s conversation?\",\"answer\":\"George warns Lennie not to drink too much and repeatedly tells him where they are going, because Lennie forgets and their forgetfulness could lead to trouble.\"}]",206,"eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6IjQ1N2I3ZmM4LTI1OTktNDg0YS05ZTk3LWQxNDYxNmMzNjZiZiIsImtpbmQiOiJvcGVuIiwidHlwIjoiSldUIn0.eyJhaWQiOjg3OTYwOTUxNjU4MDMsImF0cCI6InNwIiwiYXRzIjoiYmw2cHZFSmtEIiwiYnVpIjp0cnVlLCJjaWQiOjAsImNsaSI6IkFLMjAyNjAzMDROTUFXQ0oiLCJjb2EiOjY0LCJleHAiOjE3OTI4MjM5OTUsImpzdCI6ZmFsc2UsInNwaSI6ODc5NjA5NTE2NTgwM30.gLV3__XM9sdqpPxOQcXzZH_Ly3hnhtuuMJ1cGDzMZIFijFbnLufz1GYL6X0IATtrtC73086lHWBkGWTjnNCvRA",[149,150,151,152,153,154,155,156,157,158],"https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_65baee3f611f4642900377df79a82d93","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_2854e1bf702a4fb6ac2bc6931b9e7ed9","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_6e2d334041c2467fac5d26e7ac1dc24c","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_7b0b42adbec24096a3d1adce65463cd2","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_f0e82e5e2a324cfa8fb4c5ab5d189fc5","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_1867cd931c2d4fcdba3ae9ce7b5bc0a0","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_ffe01295e4e74a84958c0d198aadedee","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_cd949f916eda4083a84e29b089778fbd","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_2a00ac1b764945bda75149878060fc43","https://hwc-ap.ag.wps.com/api/object/2_f1b7bb936cd941c297c6dd107f2d6b94"]
