“The Proposal” from Pride & Prejudice

Using Language Ⅱ

(Lesson Plan)

Instructor: Fanwei (范薇) I. Teaching objectives

By the end of this period, the students will be able to

1. figure out the two basic elements when writing a proposal/a story;

2. find out how to vividly describe the time and the place that a story happens; 3. recognize what is a coherent passage; 4. write a story with sentences closely combined. 【教学目标：学生通过对本堂课的学习，了解并掌握高考新题型“读后续写”的精髓，即，1.故事写作的两个基本要素：故事发生的背景和故事情节；2.如何写好故事发生的背景：从视觉、听觉、嗅觉/味觉、触觉四个角度出发；3.如何写出一个环环相扣的故事情节：写出句与句之间的强逻辑联系——并列关系、递进关系、同近义关系、反义关系、上下义关系等。】

Ⅱ. Teaching methods 1. situation teaching method (The lesson was led in by supposing a situation where their single English teacher wanted to propose to their single geographic teacher Mr. Chen.) 2. students-based teaching method (All tasks in the class need to be fulfilled by students’ designing various proposals.) 【教学方法：情景教学法和学生本位教学法。】

【情景教学法：通过设定老师十年前单身身份，想向依然单身的地理陈老师求婚，请学生设计求婚方略。】

【学生本位教学法：老师讲解部分，以学生为主，为讲解中主人翁设计求婚方略；学生练习部分，依然以学生为主，学生为自己设计表白场景。】

III. Teaching procedures

Step 1 Lead-in

1. Review the passage—“The Proposal” from Pride & Prejudice; Elizabeth

Darcy

the proposal from Darcy to Elizabeth

2. Lead in the topic—How to design/write a proposal?

3. Draw the conclusion of how to write a proposal—by designing the setting and the plot;

Work hard beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.

【设计意图：通过回顾课文《傲慢与偏见》之求婚，引出今日主题：如何向自己的Mr. Right表白？并引导学生得出成功表白/求婚的必要步骤：选好时间地点&设计表白内容。该设计能引发学生强烈的兴趣，从而积极思考，积极参与，为整堂课打下基础。】

Step 2 How to describe the setting? 1. Get the students to guess “It is the proposal between _________ and _________ on__________ day in _________ place” by reading two examples. 2. Get the students to figure out the way to vividly describe the setting: through sight, hearing, smell/taste and touch. Example 1:

 Before my eyes, there was a large green grass stretching out. 

A strong smell of the damp soil was blowing in her face.  Lost in her mind, she could hear nothing

but the rain’s beating on the floor.

 She began running and running, splashing through the puddles.

Example 2:  There are no plants at all. All that come in sight are endless sand. 

Silence surrounds everywhere we went except the roaring sound from the engine.  I can feel a severe burn on my skin. 

What’s worse, when I swallow I seemingly have a nasty feeling—a taste of blood. 3. Get the students do exercise 1 to consolidate the way to vividly describe the setting. Exercise 1:

Directions: Design your settings where your dream love story happens. Try to describe your settings from one or two of the following 4 aspects: sight, hearing, smell/taste and touch. The story happens on ___________ day in___________.

Sight: _________________________________________________________ Hearing: _______________________________________________________ Smell/taste: _____________________________________________________ Touch: _________________________________________________________ 【设计意图：通过赏析《傲慢与偏见》Darcy对Elizabeth的求婚场景，以及荷西对台湾著名作家三毛的求婚场景，让学生悟出场景描写主要从四个方面来描写，即，视觉、听觉、嗅觉/味觉、触觉。同时让学生从四个方面来描写自己心中的求婚/表白场景，从而进一步巩固了场景描写的写作方法。】

Step 3: How to develop the story? 1. Get the students to pick out the right responses between Echo and Jose. 2. Get the students to figure out the relationship between sentences: antonyms, synonyms, repetition and specific-general. Work hard beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.

“Could you wait for me?” his voice was tender but full of enthusiasm.

Staring at him, a high school student, I made my comment indifferently, “I’ll marry a

millionaire or a billionaire.”

It seems that he wasn’t beaten by my marriage declaration, and continued, “I’m bound to marry you after 6 years.”

“And I’m bound to marry a rich guy and live a rich life,” I repeated without any hesitation.

“Yeah, what a wealthy future

we’ll have at the thought of you cooking at home and I earning a living outside.”

3. Get the students do exercise 2 to consolidate the ways sentences are combined to each other. Exercise 2:

Directions: Try to figure out Miss Fan’s responses from 9 responses pinned on the walls. M: His hands trembling, an intensely bright beam

from the diamond shot past me. “Fan, I care for you not because you need care but I want to. So can you accept my care?”

W:

“Oh, my Gosh! Oh, my Gosh! Oh, my Gosh! How can I resist? How can I resist?” The blaze of light

made me so dizzy that I myself cannot think clearly, “Yeah, Yeah. If the ring fits, why not?”

M: Palm trees lining up the broad avenue, he rode the bicycle with me sitting behind. “Do you still remember the way to ride a bike? I remember it quite well. And I love you the same way I learn to ride a bike: frightened but reckless.”

W: “For any vehicle

I operate, I have been taught to deal with them bravely but with caution especially when I’m determined to keep

them company for my rest of my life.”

M: He was rubbing his hands hard and exhaled to his hands all the time. “Cold, huh? Hold my hand; let me keep you warm. And can you hold my hand tight; I want to keep you warm all my life.”

W:

“Have you ever observed some little grass? They struggle to break through the snow for freedom even though it means colder outside. And I prefer to be free rather than be warm.”

【设计意图：通过找出三毛与荷西求婚的正确对话内容，悟出句与句之间的内在逻辑关系，即，并列关系、递进关系、同近义关系、反义关系、上下义关系等。同时通过练习题2——找出正确的求婚回答，让学生进一步意识到什么才是句与句之间的衔接紧密与连贯。】

Step 4: Proposal-writing 1. Get the students to make up a story consisting of the time and the place the story happens and the plot of the story. 2. Get the students figure out the combining way/ways between sentences.

Work hard beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.

Exercise 3: Directions: Finish and polish your love story conversation. Try hard to make your conversation combined as close as possible.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________【设计意图：通过创作一个完整的求婚/表白故事，并让学生指出句与句之间的逻辑联系，从而让学生了解高考新题型“读后续写”好故事的标准，以及如何写出一个情节饱满叙事连贯的故事。】

The end Work hard beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.
