Hallo,
soll zu folgenden Text eine summary schreiben.
Unter dem Text ist meine Summary! Einfach mal korigeiren vielleicht erweitern und unbedingt ein Einleitungssatz schreiben!


One day … I went to the supermarket to buy some groceries form y wife. On the way home I stopped at an art gallery where they were holding a pop-art exhibit. Unfortunately, the carton of groceries got heavy, and I left them on the floor. Then, being so moved by what I saw, I Left the gallery and went home. “Where are groceries?” my wife demanded. “Oh, my gosh,” I cried. “I left them at the art gallery.” “Well you’d better get them if you want any supper tonight.” I rushed back to the gallery, but I was too late. The groceries had been awarded first prize in the show. “We’ve been looking everywhere for you,” the gallery owner said. “Why didn’t you sign your work of art?” “It’s not a work of art. It’s my dinner for tonight.” The gallery roared with appreciative laughter.””He’s not only a great sculptor, but he has humour as well,” a judge said. “ You can see that in his work,” another judge added. “ Notice how the bottle of Heinz catsup is leaning against the can of Campbell’s park and beans.” “I’ll never know how he was inspired to put the Ritz crackers on top of the can of Crisco,” a lady said to her escort. “It’s pure genius,” the escort replied. “ Notice the way the Del Monte can of peaches is lying on its side. Even Andy Warhol wouldn’t have gone that far.” “ I think the thing that really won the prize for him was the manner in which he crushed the Sara Lee cheesecake on the bottom of the box.” “ It makes Picasso look sick.” “Look“, I said.”I’m very grateful for all these honours, but my wife is waiting for this stuff, and I have to get it home.” “Get it home?” the gallery owner said amazement. “ I’ve just sold it to that couple over there for 1,500 Dollar.” “The groceries cost me only 18 dollar”, I replied. “ It isn’t the groceries. It’s what you did with them. You have managed to put more meaning into a box of Rinso than Rodin put into ‘The Thinker’. Nobody will ever be able to look at a can of Franco-American spaghetti without thinking of you. You have said with this bag of groceries, in one evening, what Rembrandt tried to say in 1,000 paintings.” I bushed modestly and accepted his check. That night I took my wife out to dinner, and the next day I went back to the supermarket and bought another bag of groceries, much more expensive than the previous ones, which I immediately took to the gallery. But the reviews were lousy. “Success has gone to his head,” said Washington’s leading art critics. “Where once he was able to produce simple jars of cat food and peanut butter in a wild, reckless, I-don’t-give-a-damm manner, he is now serving up elegant cans of mushrooms and mock-turtle soup. “The famous touch is gone and all that is left is a hodgepodge of tasteless groceries.”


The text “the Pop Sculptor” deals with the problem …
A men go to the supermarket to buy some gerceries for his wife.
He is getting it his way home the were holding a pop-art exhibit at the gallery where he stopped to browse. Unfortunately the groceries got heavy and he set the down for a second. Then, continued looking at the art and forgot about the bags and went home. When he got home his wife Cried:"where are my groceries" and he had to tell her that he forgot them at the gallery

The text "The Pop Sculptor" deals with greedy character of a man whoose success has gone to his head. On his way home from the supermarket he stops fascinated at an art gallery and forgets about his groceries after leaving the exhibition. Reminded by his wife he returns to the gallery where the jury has already announced his "work of art" as the winner. Amazed by how easy it is to make money with simple things in life he convulsivly tries to create other works of art only with the aim to get richer. But his luck has left him as well as the reputation of the people.

Man kann im Englischen nicht sagen whose success has gone to his head. Übrigens whose mit einem o. Und man kann auch nicht sagen his luck has left him. Eher he has no luck anymore.

The text “the Pop Sculptor” deals with the problems of being too greedy. On his way home from the supermarket,
a man forgets to take his groceries home because he gets fascinated by an art gallery. When he returns to the gallery, the jury has announced his "work of art" as the winner. Because he wants to get richer very easily, he tries to create another work of art of a bag of groceries, but because success has gone to his head (whose success geht nicht, weil es ja nicht his success heißen kann, sondern success ohne Begleiter kommt, also nur success has gone to his head), the people aren’t fascinated by his work anymore.

warum kann man nicht sagen whose success has gone to his head?

 
Antwort von GAST | 08.02.2009 - 18:10
wie gesagt, weil dann müsste es ja his succes sein, aber das kann man so nicht sagen, man kann aber sagen succes has gone to his head, also succes im allgemeinen, als abstrakter begriff.

Der letzte Satz ist zu viel. Erstens an der falschen Stelle, und zweitens sollte man in einem summary solche details nicht bringen.
