Week 1 西概筆記

Today, we have 3 main points:

1.What is that?

2.What is that for? 

3.Why should we care?
In our class, the answers will be...

1.It's a course that introduced Westren Literature in Classical Literature and Bible.

 

              Gods in ancient greece literature

 












The Cover of the Bible

2.It would help us to have further understanding of the Western Literature.And, professor said that she can't turn 0 to 1, but can turn 10 to 10000, which told us must to have a sense of  English. 

3.The reason why should we care is that this will broaden our horizon and increase the ability of appreciating literature works.

Besides,we learn Roman Numbers in the class--- I think it's very interesting because I only know "I","X" and"V" before the class.Also, I realize that Roman Numbers has a rule says when it comes to figures which is end with 4 or 9 should use minus.

For example:
1=I
5=V
10=X
50=L
100=C
500=D
1000=M

Some practice:
year 2015:MMXV
Teachers' Day (928):MCXXVIII
The price of the bookworm--1403NTD:MDCIII


Last, a sentence said by the professer has deeply rooted in my memory:
"Know yourself better before you know the enemy"
