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________________________________________________.

In pairs try to think of some new ideas to help Professor Higgins teach Eliza better. Write them down in a list. Get into fours and discuss the lists. Choose the two best ideas and then share them with the

class. Find the similarities and differences between The story of Pygmalion and the play Pygmalion Similarities

：

1 They are both about a man who “makes” a perfect woman. 2 Both the women benefit: Galatea by becoming alive and Eliza by learning how to behave in polite society. Differences

：

1 In the story the artist admits that he has fallen in love with the statue, but in the play Henry does not admit that he loves Eliza. 2 In the story the artist and the statue get married and live happily together, but in the play they do not get married and appear to part. 3 In the story the artist changes from not liking women to loving one, but in the play Henry does not appear to change as much as Eliza.

Now in pairs discuss how the characters change in the play? Example: Galatea changes from stone into a real person. Eliza
