校本选修课程之英美名著与电影片段赏析

- 160-校园英语 / 基础教育校本选修课程之英美名著与电影片段赏析宁波市鄞州区鄞江中学/潘崇村一、课程设计与课程定位英语语言学习的最佳状态是应该上升到文学的高度,而英语文学的最好形式就是英美国家的文学名著,这是英语语言学习的宝库。

但是对于高中生而言,阅读原版英美名著是较困难的,因为学生的词汇量和相应的文化背景等知识量的储备还不足以达到那么高的阅读水平。

因此我们设计的这门选修课程以英美名著为基础,选择了相应名著改编的电影为载体,通过电影可以让学生从视觉和听觉的角度更直观地理解英美名著的核心内容,使学生直接了解到国外当今以及历史上的语言的发展,历史、文化、建筑等多方面的社会状况,为提高学生的学习兴趣,了解所学语言国家的全面真实的情况提供一个直观的场景,拉近国与国之间的距离,有着身临其境的感觉。

高中阶段英语教学要培养学生用英语进行恰当的交流的能力;用英语获取信息、处理信息的能力;用英语进行思维的能力。

这里着重点在于能力的培养,这完全符合新课程标准对于英语教学的要求。

电影艺术的声情并茂,情景交融的场面感染着英语学习者,实践证明,这是一种深受学生欢迎的学习形式。

在英美文学欣赏课的教学之中运用多媒体技术可以增加单位时间内的教学内容,提高学生的学习兴趣。

二、课程纲要与内容简介本课程的开设满足了学生的学习实际,可以培养他们应用英语的能力,以适应社会发展的需要。

但由于课时的限制,我们只能节选和截取这些英美名著和相应改编的电影的精彩片段在课堂上加以呈现,让学生对这些片段进行学习和欣赏,从而体会英美名著的独特魅力和跨文化交际的差异。

英美文学名著为我们提供了有价值的权威的语言材料,文学作品可以穿越时空界限,了解所学语言国家不同历史时期的文化。

同时由于文学作品涉及不同阶层,不同阶级的形形色色的人,他们是虚构的人物,但又是生活中的人物,学习他们的语言又是学习活生生的语言,学生的语言知识会得到极大的丰富。

从一些经过改编的文学名著电影入手,采取由浅入深、逐步深入的方式进行教学是切实可行的。

其技巧上最突出的特点是讨论,该剧的结尾就是 伊莉莎和希金斯关于两人关系的深入对话。摒弃 情节而注重讨论源于萧伯纳对语言本身的信心。
剧作中的讨论不仅有讽刺的幽默,而且文字坚实 明朗。具有韵律之美,节奏丰富的言辞,尖锐辛 辣的讽刺,形成一种活泼而内敛的风格,引人深 思,耐人寻味。此外,剧中伊莉莎和希金斯唇枪 舌剑式的讨论,尽管不如情节曲折离奇,但一样 可以有面对面的冲突,使故事有想像不到的发展, 所以剧作中的讨论并不令人厌倦。在这部作品中, 萧伯纳充分发挥了他的戏剧天才,以敏锐的眼光 观察现实,用机智的技巧表现生活,正是这为他 赢得了不朽的地位。《皮格马利翁)这部作品表现 出语言对人的巨大影响,剧中的伊莉莎通过学习 语言而改变了自己的命运,这一情节颇值得深思 玩味。

After Jenny's death,with a broken heart,Gump raised his son and sent him to school,where he recalled his life experiences.
A director plays a key role in a film's production,and acts as the vital link between the production,technical and creative teams.
Directors may write the film script or have it written by others; or they may be hired after the script is completed.Directors must develop a vision for the finished film,and seek a practical way to achieve it.During pre­production,directors make important decisions,such as selecting the right cast and place for the film.They then direct the performances of the actors once the film is in production.Directors also manage the technical aspects of filming,including the camera,sound,lighting,design and special effects departments.During post ­ production , directors work closely with editors through many technical processes of editing to reach the final cut of the film.At all stages,directors are responsible for encouraging the team to produce the best possible results.

1.Do you think man lives in harmony with nature now?
No. The present relationship between man and nature is not as harmonious as before. With the population explosion and the development of the economy, serious damage has been done to nature. Natural disasters are a major threat to human beings. Each year, millions of people lose their lives and their property in various forms of disasters.
