The excerpt that depicts the White family's doubt on the Major's story would be when Mr. White said:

<span>"If the tale about the monkey's paw is not more truthful than those he has been telling us," said Herbert, as the door closed behind their guest, just in time to catch the last train, "we shan't make much out of it."</span>

Answer: Why Sally looks at her feet and walks fast to the house she "can't come out from"

Explanation:

In the Vignette, "What Sally Said", Sally speak of how she is abused by her father who believes that she might bring shame to the family like his sisters did when they ran away.

In order to guard against this he is very strict with her and hits her for any perceived wrongdoing and sometimes the beating is so bad she has to miss school. The is why she walks fast to the house so as to avoid provocating hom.

The one time she manages to get a sleepover, the father comes and pleads with her to come home. This shows that she doesn't get to leave the house often either.

qwelly [4]
I guess this also depends on what the "Advanced Reading Skills" lessons talks about, but don't think of it as "really hard"! Work on one word, one phrase, one sentence, and you'll start making progress. =) 

In general, when translating, the first thing you'll have to do is to understand the paragraph, but you're right, this isn't that easy a paragraph to translate. You could use an English dictionary, or a bilingual dictionary (http://www.nciku.com<span>is good for English-Chinese) to help you. While you're doing this, try to pick out important words and translate them first, and see if you could understand what each sentence means. </span>

<span>Sometimes, words may have multiple meanings or be used as metaphors - for example, "amputated" means "having been cut off", but in your 2nd sentence, it means that the poet should not be condemned and criticised to the point where he is treated as having no value. </span>

<span>Finally, after you've translated the text, don't forget to read it to check if it makes sense in the language you're using - and if it makes for smooth reading!</span>
