Module 2 Fantasy Literature—Philip PullmanPart One: Teaching Design第一部分教学设计Period 1: Reading—The Cat That VanishedGoals●To learn about fantasy literature●To learn to read with strategiesProcedures▇Warming up by learning about “fantasy”Hello, class! We have come to Module 2 FantasyLiterature—Philip Pullman. But what is fantasy? Who is Philip Pullman?Fantasy is a genre of art, literature, film, television, and music that uses magic and other supernatural forms as a primary element of either plot, theme, setting, or all three. The genre is generally distinguished from science fiction and horror by overall look, feel, and theme of the individual work, though there is a great deal of overlap between the three (collectively known as speculative fiction). In its broadest sense, fantasy covers works by many writers, artists, and musicians, from ancient myths and legends, to many recent works embraced by a wide audience today.As with other forms of speculative fiction, actions and events in fantasy very often differ from those possible in consensus reality. In many cases, especially in older works of fantasy but in many modern works as well, this is explained by means of divine intervention, magic, or other supernatural forces. In other cases, most frequently in works of modern fantasy in the high fantasy subgenre, the story might take place in a fantasy world that is wholly different from our own, complete with distinct laws of nature that permit magic.▇Warming up by learning about “Philip Pullman”Philip Pullman was born in Norwich on 19th October 1946. The early part of his life was spent travelling all over the world, because his father and then his stepfather were both in the Royal Air Force. He spent part of his childhood in Australia, where he first met the wonders of comics, and grew to love Superman and Batman in particular.From the age of 11, he lived in North Wales, having moved back to Britain. It was a time when children were allowed to roam anywhere, to play in the streets, to wander over the hills, and he took full advantage of it. His English teacher, Miss Enid Jones, was a big influence on him, and he still sends her copies of his books.After he left school he went to Exeter College, Oxford, to read English. He did a number of odd jobs for a while, and then moved back to Oxford to become a teacher. He taught at various middle schools for twelve years, and then moved to Westminster College, Oxford, to be a part-time lecturer. He taught courses on the Victorian novel and on the folk tale, and also a course examining how words and pictures fit together. He eventually left teaching in order to write full-time.His first published novel was for adults, but he began writing for children when he was a teacher. Some of his novels were based on plays he wrote for his school pupils, such as The Ruby In The Smoke.Philip still lives in Oxford, and he writes in a shed at the bottom of his garden. The shed contains two comfortable chairs (one for writing in, one for sitting at the computer in), several hundred books, a six-foot-long stuffed rat which took a part in his play Sherlock Holmes and the Limehouse Horror, a guitar, a saxophone, as well as the computer, decorated with dozens of brightly coloured artificial flowers attached to it by Blu-Tack.Blu-Tack plays a big part in Philip Pullman's writing process. With it he sticks to the wall pictures, notes, posters, reminders, postcards, book jackets, anything that will stay there.Another product of technology that Philip can't do without is Post-it Notes, the smallest yellow ones in particular. They are very useful for planning the shape of a story: he writes a brief sentence summarising a scene on one of them, and then puts them on a very big piece of paper which he can fill with up to sixty or more different scenes, moving them around to get the best order.Philip Pullman believes firmly in the virtues of healthy exercise and a moderate diet - for other people. It makes them feel virtuous, and makes them feel good if not happy. The most exercise he normally takes is unscrewing the top of the whisky bottle. If he liked the taste of tobacco, he would smoke vigorously. He is fond of sport, andplays it by watching television. He is a big fan of Neighbours, but that is the only soap he watches, as Neighbours gives him quite enough to think about.He is married to Jude. Their son Jamie is a viola player, and their younger son Tom studies music at university.As far as he can tell, Philip Pullman is moderately harmless and useful. He would like to carry on doing what he's doing now, and there seems no reason why he shouldn't, but if it suddenly became against the law to write stories, he would break the law without a second's hesitation.▇Before you readNow let’s go to page 11 to read first His Dark Materials and The Cat That Vanished.But first please go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling.▇While you readWhile reading try to cut/ the sentences into thought groups, blacken the predicates, underline the useful expressions and darken the connectives.▇After you readCopy all the useful expressions into your Expression Book and make your own sentences with them.■Reading the text again to fill in the necessary information■Closing down by reading about “The Cat That Vanished”began with The Golden Compass. That first book was set in a world。

The Cat That Vanished
The Cat That Vanished (消失的猫)威尔累得脑子都木了，他本可以继续向北走，也有可能在某棵树下头枕草地昏昏睡去，但是，正当他站在那儿，试图让头脑清醒些的时候，他看见了一只猫。
那是一只母斑猫，就像威尔家的莫克西一样。
它轻轻地走出靠着牛津一侧街道上的一个花园，威尔正站在街边。
他放下购物袋，伸出手，那只猫便跑到他身边，在他的手指间来回蹭起了脑袋，就像莫克西常常做的那样。
当然所有的猫都是那样的，尽管如此，威尔还是渴望回家以至于热泪充满了他的双眼。
终于，那只猫转身跑开了。
正值夜晚，它还要巡视自己的领地，捕捉老鼠。
它轻轻地穿过马路，朝着角树林另一边的灌木丛走去，然后在那儿停了下来。
威尔继续盯着它，这时，他发现猫的举动变得非常奇怪它伸出爪子去拍它前面空气中的某些东西，某种威尔看不见的东西。
然后它向后一跃，脊背拱起，毛发竖立，尾巴僵直地伸着。
威尔了解猫的习性。
他更加警觉地看着，只见那只猫再次靠近那个地方---角树与花园树篱的灌木丛之间的一块空草地，又拍打了一下那里的空气。
它再次向后一跃，但这次没有跳得那么远，也没有那么害怕了。
于是几秒钟的嗅来嗅去，爪子碰触，胡须抽动，终于好奇心战胜了警惕性。
那只猫向前一迈，然后就消失了。
威尔眨了眨眼睛。
然后他静静地站着，紧靠离他最近的一棵树干，这时一辆卡车转弯驶过来，车灯照到他的身上。
卡车开过去后，他穿过马路，眼睛盯着那只猫一直在打量的地方。
这并不容易，因为他无法把目光集中在某件东西上，但是当他靠近那个地方，设法仔细观察时，他看出了端倪。
终于，他从某些角度看到了。
那儿看上去就像有人在距离路边大约两米的地方将空间切开了一块，它大体呈方形，不到一米宽。
如果你与那块空间处在同等高度，从侧面看你几乎看不到它，从后面则完全看不见它。
只能从最靠近马路的一边看到它，但也很难看清楚，因为透过它，你所看到的一切与这一边完全相同：一片被街灯照亮的草地。
但是威尔深信不疑，另一边的那块草地在一个不同的世界里。
