三、课文主要语言点【注意】以下课文内容选自外研社出版的《新概念英语》第二册的教材,请大家根据需要购买教材,支持正版!People will do anything to see a free show - even if it is a bad one.1)People will do anything to do...,可作为套话来用,表达人们为了达成某个目的可以做任何事情。2)a free show,免费的演出。3)even if,即使。When the news got round that a comedy would be presented at our local cinema by the P. and U. Bird Seed Company, we all rushed to see it.1)get round,四处传开。the news gets round that...,可以用作套话,表示“...消息传开”。2)comedy,喜剧。注意悲剧为tragedy。3)present,演出。其名词为presentation。4)rush to do,匆忙去做某事。5)注意公司的名称中,一般每个单词的首字母都要大写。We had to queue for hours to get in and there must have been several hundred people present just before the show began.1)queue,排队。注意该词的发音为[kju:]。2)get in,进去。3)注意句中的must表对过去发生的事情的猜测,所以用了must have been的结构。4)present,在场的。5)just before,就在...之前。Unfortunately, the show was one of the dullest we have ever seen. Those who failed to get in need not have felt disappointed, as many of th artistes who should have appeared did not come.1)unfortunately,不幸的是。源自名词fortune(命运、运气),其形容词为fortunate(幸运的)。2)dull,乏味的、枯燥的。3)we have ever seen用作先行词the dullest的定语从句,中间省略了关系代词that。4)who引导的定语从句,用来修饰先行词those。5)fail to do,没做做成。6)注意need在此用来表示对过去发生过的事情的评论,所以采用了need not have done的结构。7)artiste,艺术家。8)should have done,本该...。这往往表达的是与事实相反的结论。The only funny things we heard that evening came from the advertiser at the beginning of the programme.1)注意we heard that evening用作先行词things的定语从句,中间省略了关系代词that。2)advertiser,主持人。该词原本表示的是广告商。3)at the beginning of,在...的开端。4)programme,节目。美式英语的拼写为program。He was obviously very nervous and for some minutes stood awkwardly before the microphone. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone burst out laughing.1)obviously,明显地。2)nervous,紧张的。源自名词nerve(神经)。3)awkwardly,尴尬地。4)burst out laughing,哄堂大笑。We all know what the poor man should have said, but what he actually said was: 'This is the Poo and Ee Seed Bird Company. Good ladies, evening and gentlemen!'1)注意should用了斜体,起着强调作用,朗读时需要重读。2)actually也用了斜体,起到强调作用,与前面的should形成鲜明对照。3)drill through,钻空。4)lose heart,失望、丧失信心。注意该短语中间不能插入任何成分。5)注意句中的it是形式主语,其逻辑主语是to drill through the hard rock.。
四、课文摘要The local cinema was packed, because the P & U Bird Seed Company was presenting a free comedy show. But many of the artistes who should have appeared failed to show up. Because of this, the show was very dull. The funniest thing we heard came at the beginning from the advertiser who introduced the programme saying, ‘This is the Poo and Ee Seed Bird Company. Good ladies, evening and gentlemen!’
五、语用文化喜剧的种类喜剧是戏剧的一种类型,一般以夸张的手法、巧妙的结构、诙谐的台词及对喜剧性格的刻画,从而引人对丑的、滑稽的予以嘲笑,对正常的人生和美好的理想予以肯定。喜剧源于古希腊,由在收获季节祭祀酒神时的狂欢游行演变而来。在喜剧中,主人公一般以滑稽、幽默及对旁人无伤害的丑陋、乖僻,表现生活中或丑、或美、或悲的一面。由于艺术家的表现的角度不同,手法不一致,所以,喜剧可划分出不同的类型。其中包括讽刺喜剧、幽默喜剧、欢乐喜剧、正喜剧、荒诞喜剧与闹剧等。欢乐喜剧则强调人的价值,正喜剧从表现生活的否定方面变为表现生活中肯定的方面,喜剧不再用来针砭人的恶习、缺点、卑下,而主要用来歌颂人的美德、才智、自信。荒诞喜剧则把人生最深层的苦难与将死扭曲,送进颠倒的喜剧王国。而闹剧一般属于粗俗喜剧之列,即通过逗乐的举动和蠢笨的戏谑引人发笑而缺少深刻的旨趣意蕴。喜剧通过运用各种引人发笑的表现方式和表现手法,代表性的有电影,电视剧,用诙谐的语言和台词修饰,产生让人大笑的效果。在中国,约12世纪才产生出成熟的喜剧艺术。但它的起源却很早,雏型可追溯到秦汉,当时的俳[pái](即俳优),乃是以乐舞戏谑为业的艺人。到唐宋流行的参军戏,主要由参军、苍鹘[hú]两个角色表演,通过滑稽的对话和动作,引人发笑,实际上也是一种以调侃诙谐为主的表演形式。直到宋代以后,这些表演形式才有了完整的情节内容,产生出戏剧意义上的喜剧。欧洲最早的喜剧是古希腊喜剧,代表作家是阿里斯托芬;16、17世纪以莎士比亚、莫里哀为代表;18世纪意大利的哥尔多尼及法国的博马舍是欧洲启蒙运动时期喜剧的代表;19世纪以俄国的果戈理为代表。中国古典戏曲中也有丰富的喜剧遗产,如《救风尘》 ;传奇《玉簪记》;传统剧目《炼印》等,都是优秀的喜剧作品。
六、学习建议1、在所有情态动词中,注意:must的否定为needn't;need为半情态动词,要注意need to do的实义动词用法;should要注意should have done的用法;have to不是情态动词,所以其否定和疑问句的变化要借助助动词do/does/did等。2、注意本课课文的标题的解释:a slip of the tongue,说漏嘴;失言。其中,slip表示“疏忽;失误”。
