男主人公语言分析,,Para.55,“Ah, no, please,” “Don’t go just for a moment,” “I see so few people to talk to nowadays, that I have turned into a sort of barbarian,” “Have I said something to hurt you?” 这里说明男主人公只当Vera是消磨时间的对象，用她来解决无人倾诉的问题Para.57,“What I really wanted then,” “was to be a sort of carpet-for you to walk on so that you need not be hurt by the sharp stones…” 男主人公希望通过这些甜言蜜语掩盖前面认不出Vera的尴尬，自以为是的认为他们之间的回忆是美好的，却不知道Vera的愤怒Para.59,“I felt, that you were more lonely than anybody else in the world.” 这句话表明了男主人公对Vera的理解之深，能透过外表洞穿她的内心世界。
Para.61,“And then the fact that you never had made friends with people. How I understood that, for neither had I. Is it just the same now?” 男主人公希望通过这些话拉拢Vera，掩盖之前认不出她的尴尬Para.64,“But what seemed to me so mysterious then is perfectly plain to me now. It simply was that we were egoists…” 这句话表现出男主人公的自私，句中we的使用对Vera产生了深深的伤害，最终使她毅然决然的离开Para.66,“But the cream has not been touched,” “Please do not charge me for it.” 这句话充分的表明男主人公的自私和虚伪。
