教案说明

潜力。

在设置上，我们采取了听说读写这几个基本步骤，把英语教学法中的四部教学法应用其中，先是依据希腊神话热身，由电影《窈窕淑女》导入，通过泛读，精读，分角色朗读来让学生体会剧中人的性格特点，再通过小组讨论的形式理清脉络，辨别复杂的人物关系并深层体会这些有明显阶级特征的人的心理活动，学会享受大家的文采。

STEP I Warming up（热身）

Review the story Pygmalion T : Last period, we learned something about the Greek story Pygmalion and the play version by Shaw. Of all Shaw’s plays, Pygmalion is without the doubt the most beloved and popularly received. Several film versions have been made of the play, and it has even been adapted into a musical. In fact, the film version of 1963 helped Shaw to become the first and only man ever to win the double prize: the Nobel Prize for literature and an Academy Award. Do you still remember the story? Now who can tell it to all of us? Ask the Ss whether they know the Greek story of Pygmalion. If they know, tell the story. Picture 1________________________________________________. Picture 2________________________________________________. Picture 3________________________________________________. 请学生展示他们或她们的组为warming up部分的希腊神话故事《皮格马立翁》查余额的的资料，小组派出一名学生表述该剧本的大意。

并且说明本单元的《窈窕淑女》就是由萧伯纳根据该故事改编而来。

Further question: Will Pygmalion and his statue-wife be happy? Give your opinion. STEP 2. Pre-reading and Lead-in（导入）

Have you seen the film “My Fair Lady”(《窈窕淑女》)?

One reports his work : Pygmalion was a gifted artist. One day, he decided to make a stone statue of a beautiful woman. He worked day and night and at last he finished. Then he clothed the girl, decorated it with jewellery, and even named it the Sleeping Love. The work was so beautiful that he imagined that if the statue could be brought to life, he’d like it to be his wife. So he asked the Greek Goddess to help make it alive. The Goddess was moved by his sincerity. His wish was realized and

Pygmalion threw himself to his feet, the girl smelt down at him. Afterwards,

心理学家莫顿（Robert Merton）将此现象名之为“自我实现的预言”。这也就是在萧伯纳名剧《窈窕淑女》(My Fair Lady)中为人所熟知的“皮格马利翁效应”（Pygmalion effect）。该剧取材自希腊与罗马神话中的一个角色皮格马利翁，这名神话中的主角深信他所刻的雕像非常美丽，终于使雕像变成有生命的人。
