Ⅲ. 教材分析和课时安排

1. 教材分析

本单元以皮格马利翁为话题，通过学习，使学生了解具有共同主题的希腊神话Pygmalion与萧伯纳戏剧之间在表现形式、人物塑造等方面的相同与不同之处；并能在此基础上，讨论和表演部分戏剧场景；能为该剧本写出一份评论；能模仿剧本编写一个戏剧场景，即Higgins教授如何给Eliza上第二课的场景。语法部分重点学习过去分词作状语的用法。

1.1

Warming Up 是三幅描述希腊神话故事Pygmalion主要情节的图画。要求学生根据图片提示，联系已有知识，再现这个美丽的神话故事，并能就此话题展开讨论。

1.2

1.2 Pre-reading中所列三个问题，意在让学生提炼萧伯纳戏剧与希腊神话故事所反映的共同主题，并初步酝酿可能出现的故事情节。

[来源:学科网]

1.3

1.3 Reading讲述了发生在伦敦剧院外的一幕。主要人物有Eliza, Higgins, Pickering。Eliza原是伦敦市的一名卖花女，在一次偶然的情况下遇见了以能听懂别人口音而自傲的Professor Higgins。Professor Higgins与Colonel Pickering打赌，说他能将口音其糟无比，讲话粗鲁的Eliza改造成能讲标准英文的淑女。Eliza就住在Professor Higgins的家中，受了一阵子语言训练。最后两人认为已经训练有成，便带Eliza到一个盛大的宫廷舞会。在场的人都不知道Eliza的出身。女王还对Eliza大加赞赏。Professor Higgins自傲于自己的成功，完全忽略了Eliza的感受。Eliza盛怒之下，离开了Higgins。她走之后，Higgins才发现不能没有她。最后Eliza回到了Professor Higgins身边。两人言归于好。剧中Higgins教授希望把一个街头卖花的姑娘转变成一个有修养的能跻身上流社会的人。从人物的对话中我们也可以清楚地看到不同人物的性格特征，比如Eliza的粗鲁，Higgins的缺乏耐心，Pickering的礼貌等都反映得淋漓尽致。

1.4

Comprehending分为两部分。第一部分根据课文，让学生回答相关问题；第二部分要求学生从课文中找出这三个不同社会阶层的人物对不同于自己阶层的人们所持的态度；第三部分要求学生思考除了语言以外，哪些方面还能显示出人们社会地位的不同；第四部分要求学生运用所给词汇描述剧本中不同人物的性格特点；第五部分要求学生纠正Eliza语言中的语法、拼写等方面的错误。

1.5

Learning about Language分词汇和语法两部分。词汇部分要求学生能在具体语言环境中运用所学词汇和短语；语法部分主要通过大量的例句和习题要求学生自主学习，总结-ed形式在句子中作状语用法。

1.6

Using Language中Reading and acting部分紧承Reading部分的剧情。这一幕的地点是在Higgins的家里，主要人物有Eliza, Higgins, Pickering和Mrs Pearce。主要讲述的是Eliza来这里找Higgins教授，并请求他担任她的老师，帮助她改变命运的事。该部分从听、说、读、写四个方面来学习和巩固所学语言知识。

2．

The First Period Background knowledge and warming-up Step 1 Background knowledge I. Pygmalion

Two old gentlemen meet in the rain one night at Covent Garden. Professor Higgins is a scientist of phonetics, and Colonel Pickering is a linguist of Indian dialects. The first bets the other that he can, with his knowledge of phonetics, convince high London society that, in a matter of months, he will be able to transform the cockney speaking Covent Garden flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a woman as poised and well-spoken as a duchess. The next morning, the girl appears at his laboratory on Wimpole Street to ask for speech lessons, offering to pay a shilling, so that she may speak properly enough to work in a flower shop. Higgins makes merciless fun of her, but is seduced by the idea of working his magic on her. Pickering goads him on by agreeing to cover the costs of the experiment if Higgins can pass Eliza off as a duchess at an ambassador’s garden party. The challenge is taken, and Higgins starts by having his housekeeper bathe Eliza and give her new clothes. Then Eliza’s father Alfred Doolittle comes to demand the return of his daughter, though his real intention is to hit Higgins up for some money. The professor, amused by Doolittle’s unusual rhetoric, gives him five pounds. On his way out, the dustman fails to recognize the now clean, pretty flower girl as his daughter.

For a number of months, Higgins trains Eliza to speak properly. Two trials for Eliza follow. The first occurs at Higgins’ mother’s home, where Eliza is introduced to the Eynsford Hills, a trio of mother, daughter, and son. The son Freddy is very attracted to her, and further taken with what he thinks is her affected “small talk” when she slips into cockney. Mrs Higgins worries that the experiment will lead to problems once it is ended, but Higgins and Pickering are too absorbed in their game to take heed. A second trial, which takes place some months later at an ambassador’s party (and which is not actually staged), is a resounding success. The wager is definitely won, but Higgins and Pickering are now bored with the project, which causes Eliza to be hurt. She throws Higgins’ slippers at him in a rage because she does not know what is to become of her, thereby bewildering him. He suggests she marry somebody. She returns him the hired jewelry, and he accuses her of ingratitude.

The following morning, Higgins rushes to his mother, in a panic because Eliza has run away. On his tail is Eliza’s father, now unhappily rich from the trust of a deceased millionaire who took to heart Higgins’ recommendation that Doolittle was England’s “most original moralist.” Mrs. Higgins, who has been hiding Eliza upstairs all along, chides the two of them for playing with the girl’s affections. When she enters, Eliza thanks Pickering for always treating her like a lady, but threatens Higgins that she will go work with his rival phonetician, Nepommuck. The outraged Higgins cannot help but start to admire her. As Eliza leaves for her father’s wedding, Higgins shouts out a few errands for her to run, assuming that she will return to him at Wimpole Street. Eliza, who has a lovelorn sweetheart in Freddy, and the wherewithal to pass as a duchess, never makes it clear whether she will or not. Ⅱ. My Fair Lady

The musical was based on George Bernard Shaw’s 1913 play “Pygmalion”. The following is the plot of the play.

We find Eliza Doolittle (Audrey Hepburn) selling flowers and spewing out the

- 3 -

most dreadful words in a Cockney accent. It is really almost unbearable, but don’t turn the movie off as it doesn’t last too long. Audrey Hepburn is perhaps the most beautiful actress to ever grace the screen in my humble opinion. Here, she shines and is only a wall flower for the first part of the movie. Later she blossoms into an exquisite woman who could win the heart of any man. It is truly her best acting.

Professor Henry Higgins (Rex Harrison) and Colonel Pickering discover her selling flowers and after Professor Higgins throws money into her flower basket we expect the two will never meet again. Eliza has other ideas and proudly marches up to the professor’s home and demands to be taught to speak like a lady.

Colonel Pickering then makes a bet with Professor Higgins and says that if he can turn this uncultured “gutter snipe” with a “simply ghastly” accent into a sophisticated, elegant duchess, he will pay for all the expenses. (Reminiscent of “Trading Places” to give a modern example). It is just irresistible to the professor and so he takes on a challenge for six months.

Higgins’ arrogant attitude will make you laugh. He is humorously as unaware of other’s feelings as he is of his own. He is at first very unlikable, yet made me laugh through the whole movie. You will enjoy his eccentric view of life and cunning attitude as he tempts Eliza with chocolates.

When you hear “I Could Have Danced All Night,” you will know why this will become one of your favorite musicals. “On the Street Where You Live” always makes me cry. The script is superb and humorous in so many places. You will find yourself crying, laughing, and becoming increasingly enchanted as the movie progresses. I love this line: “The great secret in life is not a question of good manners or bad manners, or any particular sort of manners, but having the same manner for all human souls.”—Professor Higgins

Higgins and Eliza have quite a few passionate verbal exchanges which are quite amusing. Eliza says: “I want a little kindness.” and we immediately know that love is the only aspect missing from this relationship. Higgins has to learn to love and that to me is the undercurrent in this movie. While Eliza learns to speak well, Higgins learns to love well. Ⅲ. George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950)

Irish dramatist, literary critic, a socialist spokesman, and a leading figure in the 20th century theater. Shaw was a freethinker, defender of women’s rights, and advocate of equality of income. In 1925 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Shaw accepted the honour but refused the money.

George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin, where he grew up in something close to genteel poverty. “I am a typical Irishman; my family came from Yorkshire,” Shaw once said. His father, George Carr Shaw, was in the wholesale grain trade. Lucinda Elisabeth (Gurly) Shaw, his mother, was the daughter of an impoverished landowner. She was 16-years younger than her husband. George Carr was a drunkard — his example prompted his son to become a teetotaler. When he died in 1885, his children and wife did not attend his funeral. Young Shaw and his two sisters were brought up mostly by servants. Shaw’s mother eventually left the family home to teach music, singing, in London. When she died in 1913, Shaw confessed to Mrs. Patrick Campbell: “I must write to you about it, because there is no one else who didn’t hate her mother, and even who doesn’t hate her children.”

In 1866 the family moved to a better neighborhood. Shaw went to the Wesleyan Connexional School, and then moved to a private school near Dalkey, and from there to Dublin’s Central Model School. Shaw finished his formal education at the Dublin English Scientific and Commercial Day School. At the age

- 4 -

of 15, he started to work as a junior clerk. In 1876 he went to London, joining his sister and mother. Shaw did not return to Ireland for nearly thirty years.

Most of the next two years Shaw educated himself at the British Museum. He began his literary career by writing music and drama criticism, and novels, including the semi-autobiographical IMMATURITY, without much success. A vegetarian, who eschewed alcohol and tobacco, Shaw joined in 1884 the Fabian Society, served on its executive committee from 1885 to 1911. The middle-class socialist group attracted also H. G. Wells. The both writers send each other copies of their new books as they appeared. “You are, now that Wilde is dead, the one living playwright in my esteem,” wrote Wells after receiving Shaw’s THREE PLAYS FOR PURITANS (1901).

In 1895 Shaw became a drama critic for the Saturday Review. Articles written for the paper were later collected in OUR THEATRES IN THE NINETIES (1932). Music, art, and drama criticism Shaw wrote for Dramatic Review (1885-1886), Our Corner (1885-1886), The Pall Mall Gazette (1885-1888), The World (1886-1894), and The Star (1888-1890). His music criticism was collected in SHAW’S MUSIC (1981). During this period he wrote CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA (1901) and THE PERFECT WAGNERITE (1898).

Pygmalion was originally written for the actress Mrs. Patrick Campbell. Later the play became the basis for two films and a musical. (Shaw’s correspondence with the actresses Ellen Terry and Stella Campbell is available in book form.) Shaw’s popularity declined after his essay ‘Common Sense about the War’ (1914), which was considered unpatriotic. With SAINT JOAN (1924), his masterpiece, Shaw was again accepted by the post-war public. Now he was regarded as ‘a second Shakespeare’, who had revolutionized the British theatre. Shaw did not portray Joan of Arc, his protagonist, as a heroine or martyr, but as a stubborn young woman. And as in classic tragedies, her flaw is fatal and brings about her downfall. Uncommonly Shaw showed some sympathy to her judges. The play was written four years after Joan was declared a saint.

In his plays Shaw combined contemporary moral problems with ironic tone and paradoxes, “Shavian” wit, which has produced such phrases as “He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches”, “England and America are two countries divided by a common language”, “Christianity might be a good thing if anyone ever tried it”, and “I never resist temptation because I have found that things are bad for me do not tempt me.” Discussion and intellectual acrobatics are the basis of his drama, and before the emergence of the sound film, his plays were nearly impossible to adapt into screen. During his long career, Shaw wrote over 50 plays. He continued to write them even in his 90s. George Bernard Shaw died at Ayot St. Lawrence, Hertfordshire, on November 2, 1950. He was cremated and it was his wish that his ashes be mixed with those of his wife, Charlotte — she had died seven years before, “an old woman bowed and crippled, furrowed and wrinkled,” as Shaw depicted her in a letter to H.G. Wells.

Since the days of the silent films, Shaw had been a fan of motion-picture. He also played in the film Rosy Rapture — The Pride of the Beauty (1914). Shaw did not like much of the German film version of Pygmalion (1935), and the penniless producer and director Gabriel Pascal persuaded the author to give him the rights to make films from his plays. “Mr Pascal, you’re the first honest film producer I have ever met,” Shaw told him at their first meeting and gave him a pound note. Pygmalion, produced by Pascal and directed by Anthony Asquith and David Lean (uncredited), was a great success. In one article, Pascal was picked with the Pope

- 5 -

and Hitler as one of the ten most famous men of 1938, but his career ended in the financial fiasco of the spectacle Caesar and Cleopatra (1945). Among several other films inspired by Shaw’s plays were Saint Joan (1927), How He Lied to Her Husband (1931), Arms and the Man (1932), Major Barbara (1941), and My Fair Lady (1964). Pascal’s co-director in Major Barbara was David Lean, but for thousand pounds Lean agreed to give the full credit to Pascal. Ⅳ. Quotations from Bernard Shaw Behind every successful man, there is a woman and behind every unsuccessful man, there are two.

每个成功的男人后面都有一个女人；每个不成功的男人后面都有两个女人。

I was born intelligent — education ruined me.

我生下来时很聪明的——教育把我给毁了。

Practice makes perfect... But nobody’s perfect... so why practice?

完美无缺苦练来……但没有一个人是完美无缺的……所以干吗要苦练呢？

Since light travels faster than sound, people appear bright until you hear them speak.

由于光速比音速快，所以在我们听到人们开口之前，个个都显得很聪明。

The Second Period Reading

Step Ⅰ Revision and lead-in Review the story Pygmalion.

T: Last period, we learned something about the Greek story Pygmalion and the play version by Shaw. Of all of 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 1938 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 retell it to all of us? A sample retelling version:

Pygmalion was a gifted artist. One day, he decided to make a stone statue of a beautiful woman. After that, he spent day and night carving it, and then he clothed the figure, gave it the jewellery, and even

named it the Sleeping Love. How he wanted to bring it to life and made it his wife. Therefore, he asked the Greek Goddess to make it alive. And finally the Goddess was moved by his sincere feeling. His wish was granted. Pygmalion threw himself to his feet, the girl smelt down at him. Afterwards, they loved each other and married. T: Can you tell me the theme of the story? S: People tend to behave as you expect they will. T: Excellent! Based on classical myth, Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion plays on the complex business of human relationships in the social world. Phonetics Professor Henry Higgins tutors the very Cockney Eliza Doolittle, not only in the refinement of speech, but also in the refinement of her manners. When the end result produces a very ladylike Miss Doolittle, the lessons learned become much more far reaching. OK, today we will read a story about it. It’s written by the famous English playwright, George Bernard Shaw. Step Ⅱ Reading Deal with the Reading part. Play the tape for the students to listen. Then analyze the play. Ask the students to read through the text. While reading, pay attention to the writing style.

Skimming

Ask the students to read the play quickly and answer the questions. T: Now please read the play. After a few minutes, I’ll ask you some questions.

After a few minutes.

T: Who would like to answer the first question: How many characters are there in the play? S1: There are three characters in the play. They are Eliza, Professor Higgins, and Colonel Pickering. T: What is the weather like when the play begins? S2: When the play begins, it is pouring with rain.[来源:学科网]

T: Very good. Do you think Eliza a well-educated woman? Why? S3: No, I don’t think so. In fact, she is poor-educated. We can know it clearly from what she said. For example, come over’ere, cap’in, and buy me flowers off a poor girl. For another, I ain’t done nothing wrong by

speaking to that gentleman. T: Also, we can learn it from her behavior. For example, “pushes it back at him.” OK. Next one: Why did professor Higgins want to make notes

of what Eliza said? S4: He wanted to make a speech, because it’s his profession.

T: Very good. Next: What’s the meaning of “the age of the newly rich”?

S5: It means people begin their working life in a poor neighbourhood of London

- 7 -

with 80 pounds a year and end in a rich one with 100 thousand. Scanning

Ask three students to read the play.

T: Next I will ask three students to read the play again. One

will be Eliza, one Professor Higgins, and one Colonel Pickering. OK? Now begin! After several minutes.

T: Great. Now I have some more questions. First: According to Higgins, if a person is very poor, he or she can still be better off at last. Do you agree with him? If so, how to realize the aim? S1: Yes. I agree with him. However, in order to realize the aim, he or she must get educated. T: Who can complete the last sentence: in the first line on page 29: Now once taught by me...? S2: Let me try. Once taught by me, she will soon become a lady in the upper class. T: Well done. What other things show one’s statue in society apart from how one speaks? S3: One’s clothing and behavior can also show his statue. T: Do you think Pickering is of the upper class? S4: Yes. I think he is well educated. We can learn it from the way he speaks. For example, “May I ask?”

T: Great! Now please listen to the tape carefully and try to catch the main idea of this act. Step Ⅲ Comprehending

This time the students should listen to the tape as carefully as possible. They should not only pay attention to the pronunciation and intonation but get the main idea of the play as

well. T: Pygmalion is a play about recognizing a person’s position in society by the way they behave and speak.

Step Ⅳ Discussion

Ask the students to do Part 5 on page 31.

T: Suppose you have a chance to help Eliza improve her use of the English language. Look at the sentences on page 31 in Part 5 and help her correct all these sentences in terms of grammar, spelling, etc, so that she can use them properly. Sample answers:

1. Come here, and come in. Buy flowers from me—a poor girl.[来源:学+科+网]

2. I did nothing wrong when I spoke to that gentleman. 3. I thought you maybe was a policeman in disguise. 4. How do I know whether you wrote down my words or not? 5. You say I can work as a shop assistant? That’s definitely what I want.

Then ask the students to read the play again and do Part 2 on page 31.

T: We have learned that the social position of the characters influences the way they behave to each other. Generally speaking, people are more polite to those whom they think are of a higher social class (H) and less polite to those they consider are members of a lower class (L). Is this true of the characters in Shaw’s play? Now please finish Part 2 on page 31.

Sample answers to Part 2: Relationships between characters Evidence from the play Henry Higgins: 1. My dear man 1. Attitude to Colonel Pickering (H) 2. Dismissively, ignore, carelessly 2. Attitude to Eliza (L)

throw

Is the statement above true? The statement is not true. Eliza: 1. Pushes it back at him 1. Attitude to Henry Higgins (H) 2. ... 2. Attitude to Colonel Pickering (H)

Is the statement above true? The statement is not true.

The Fourth Period Grammar

StepⅠ Revision Check the homework.

Ask the students to act out the play.

T: Yesterday I asked you to prepare for the play-acting. Have you prepared? Now I want to ask three students to have a try.

After they

finish, make some comments on their performances. Step Ⅱ Word study Ask the students to finish Exx. 1 and 2 in Learning about Language.[来源:学#科#

Then check the answers with the class.

Step Ⅲ Grammar

First ask the students to find out the examples of the past participle as the adverbial in the play:

Sample sentences:

1. An expert in phonetics, convinced that the quality of a person’s English decides his/her position in society. P28

2. But, sir, (proudly) once educated to speak properly, that girl could pass herself off in three months as a duchess at an ambassador’s garden party. P30

Explanation: T: The past participle as the adverbial is a very important grammar, and it can indicate time, condition, reason, and way. We can add when / while / if or other conjunctions before the past participle in order to make the meaning more clearly. For example: Show the following.

If bitten by a snake, you should send for help and don’t walk.

The room, although supposed to be kept locked, was often left open. T: Now please look at the following examples. Can you rewrite these sentences?[来Show the following.

1. Given more time, we could do it better. 2. Heated to a high temperature, water will change to vapour.[来源:学科网]

The Fifth Period Extensive reading Step1 Revision Check the homework.

Ask the students to review Act One: Fateful meetings. A sample summary of the act:

Eliza Doolittle, is a poor, dirty flower seller in the turn of the century England. The Pygmalion in this film is Henry Higgins (Harrison), a linguist and phonetic expert who believes that speech is what really sets the classes apart. He bets with his friend Colonel Pickering that through a change in dress and speech, he can turn the lower class Eliza into a lady that will fool high society. The only thing in the bet for Eliza is that she might be able to open her own flower shop and somewhat escape her lower class roots. Step2 Reading

Have the students read the play carefully and then answer the following questions. After a few minutes.

T: Now answer my questions. First: Do you think Eliza is very ambitious? S1: Yes, I think so. Because she still likes to learn even if Higgins treats her rudely. T: Why did Pickering fancy himself? S2: Because he can pronounce twenty-four distinct vowel sounds. T: What habits did Eliza have? S3: She has never had a bath in her life; not over her whole body.[来源:学科网]

T: What do you think Higgins would have to do to change Eliza into a lady? S4: In order to have Eliza make a big change, Higgins has to teach her the alphabet. T: How do you think Colonel Pickering? S5: I think Pickering is very kind and well-educated. T: Why does Eliza collect Henry’s slippers for him although she is not a servant?

S6: Although Eliza is not a servant, from her deep heart, she looks down upon herself, and think she is in the lower class. But Henry is in the higher class. So I think she collects his slippers willingly. T: Why does she throw the shoes at him? S7: Because Henry looks down upon her, which deeply hurts her. She is very angry. T: Why does Henry think he wins the bet? S8: Because he thinks it is he who makes Eliza attractive in the party.[来源:学_科_

T: Why does Eliza get upset when Henry does not congratulate her? S9: Because in Eliza’s opinion, it is she that tries her best to make

other people attracted to her.[来源:Z,xx,k.Com]

T: Why does Henry get upset when he hears Eliza will marry Freddy? S10: In fact, he loves Eliza, I think. After that, the teacher can lead the students to have a discussion about the ending of the play. Show the following.

1. Do you think Eliza should marry Henry? 2. Do you think Eliza should marry Freddy? 3. If Eliza loves Henry and marries him, do you think he will become a good husband? About ten minutes later, ask the students to present their answers.

Sample answers:

I think Eliza will marry neither Freddy nor Henry. After all

Freddy does not know the past of Eliza. If one day Freddy learns about that, he will not accept all of this. He belongs to the upper class and maybe in his deep heart he looks down upon Eliza. As for Henry, I think he is very greedy and proud. He only treats Eliza as his bet. He only wants to prove he is capable, although at last he falls in love with Eliza. However, when he truly marries Eliza, the selfishness will again appear. He will not become a good husband. As a matter of fact, Eliza has become a confident girl after experiencing these things. Maybe she will find

her true love at last.
