Step I Lead-in
Talk about the Pygmalion Effect.
T: Has anyone heard of “the Pygmalion Effect”? What is it?
S1: The Pygmalion effect is that people tend to behave as you expect they will. If you expect a person to take responsibility, they probably will. If you expect them
4、not to even try, they probably won’t.
Step II Warming-up
Ask Students to look at a group of three pictures and try to describe them in their own words.
T: Yes, today we are going to learn about a Greek story Pygmalion. First, look at the pictures on page 28. Please wo
5、rk in pairs and work out the story.
S1: Let me try. Pygmalion was a very gifted artist. He spent a long time making a stone statue of a beautiful woman. It was so beautiful that he couldn’t help loving it and wanted it to be his wife.
S2: But it was only a stone. How could he make his dream become
6、 true? He thought and thought and at last he asked the Greek Goddess to help him to bring it to life.
S3. The Greek Goddess agreed to help and his wish was granted.
Then ask a student to present the complete story.
T: Now, who can present the complete story based on the story?
S4: Let me try. Py
7、gmalion 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 figure, decorated it with jewellery, and even named it the Sleeping Love. The work was so beautiful that he couldn’t help thinking that i
8、f the statue could be brought to life, he’d very much like it to be his wife. Therefore, he asked the Greek Goddess to help make it alive. Finally the Goddess was moved by his sincerity. His wish was granted. Pygmalion threw himself to his feet, the girl smelt down at him. Afterwards, they fell in l
9、ove with each other and married.
T: Wonderful! You did a good job! Now let’s have a discussion. Do you think that Pygmalion and his statue-wife will be happy together?
S: No, I don’t think so.
T: What problems do you think they will have?
S1: Maybe they can’t understand each other, because they
10、come from different world.
S2: It’s very hard for Pygmalion to understand his wife, because his wife is made form a stone. She doesn’t know the words, behavior, anything about him.
…
T: How do you think they might solve them?
S3: Pygmalion loves the girl so much that he decides to teach her how
11、to speak and how to behave herself. Little by little, they understand each other well and live happily.
T: Good imagination! The story is so interesting that it was made into a film My Fair Lady, which was based on the play by Bernard Shaw. Do you know this famous playwright?
Step III Discussion
12、
Make a brief introduction about Shaw.
T: George Bernard Shaw, Irish dramatist, literary critic, a socialist spokesman, and a leading figure in the 20th century theater. Shaw was a freethinker, defenders of women’s rights, and advocate of equality of income,. In 1925 he was awarded the Nobel Prize
13、 for Literature. Shaw accepted the honor, but refused the money. He was a very humorous playwright. Here is a story about him. One day, Shaw took part in a grand party, in which he met the then Prime Minister Churchill. Churchill was very fat at that time whereas Shaw was very thin. Churchill said t
14、o Shaw very sharply, “When people see you, they will know how poor your country is”. And then Shaw answered very quickly, “When people see you, they will know the reason why our country is so poor.” From it we can see how witty Shaw is!
T: Have you seen the film My Fair Lady? Do you like the film?
Say something about the film.
