Which sentences in this excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Winter Dreams" seem to foreshadow Dexter’s future obsession with “possessing” Judy Jones?
Now, of course, the quality and the seasonability of these winter dreams varied, but the stuff of them remained. They persuaded Dexter several years later to pass up a business course at the State university—his father, prospering now, would have paid his way—for the precarious advantage of attending an older and more famous university in the East, where he was bothered by his scanty funds. But do not get the impression, because his winter dreams happened to be concerned at first with musings on the rich, that there was anything merely snobbish in the boy. He wanted not association with glittering things and glittering people—he wanted the glittering things themselves. Often he reached out for the best without knowing why he wanted it—and sometimes he ran up against the mysterious denials and prohibitions in which life indulges.

What about a modern performance of a Shakespearean play could be changed without affecting the play's meaning?
Amanda [17]

Answer:

We could change the language and adapt it to reflect the contemporary English we use nowadays. That would make the play more understandable, especially for the young people and wake up their interest for the theatre.  

We could change the setting, that is, time and place of some plays and adapt it to contemporary surroundings, without changing the topic of the plays, as Shakespearean problems and inner struggles are still present in the 21st century, only in different ways.

For example, we could change characters' professions or some circumstances without changing the plot of the story. Or, perhaps, try to represent some contemporary family issues, by readapting Hamlet into a boy who is fighting against his stepfather.
