Sharon:
Anita, do you know (Who painted this painting?) ?, "The Persistence of Memory"?
Anita:
I think it was Salvador Dali -- you know, the Spanish artist.
I wonder (What was he thinking about?) at the time.
Mrs. True, could you please tell us (What is the meaning of this painting?) ?
Mrs. True:
I'm not sure (What was Dali trying to say?) when he did this painting.
Maybe he was commenting on time and space.
Sharon:
Do you know (When did he paint it ?) ?
Mrs. True:
Well, Dali did his surrealist work from 1929 to 1940,
although I don't know exactly (When did he do this painting?) .
Sharon:
And do you know (What inspired him?) ?
Mrs. True:
Well, we know that Dali was interested in Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams".
Do you know (Who was Freud?) ?
Anita:
Of course! So maybe the funny clocks in that painting were part of a dream Dali had? How bizarre!
I wonder (What had Dali eaten?) for dinner that night!
Mrs. True:
Why don't you girls do some research on this? You could do a presentation on Dali for your final project.
