Writing

Learning objectives
When writing a summary of a long story, your purpose is to convey the basic ideas of the original: what is it about and what does the author want to communicate First, identify the title and author of the piece. Then use your own words to describe relevant details that lead to the climax of the story. State the central idea of the story but don't give your own opinion of it. A good summary needs to be concise, precise and to the point.
You can say the details in another way or use the words with the similar meanings.

Now answer the questions based on the summary.

The first paragraph.
2. What is the climax of the play
The climax of the play happens when Tyltyl discovers the Blue Bird has been there in his home all the time.
3. What is the theme of the play
The theme of the play is that happiness is to be found not in luxuries, but in simple things, such as family life, acts of friendship and kindness.
英文概要(summary) 简单地说就是用尽可能少的词汇集中展现原材料的主要思想及观点。概要是简写或再现其他人的观点、思想,是再现(representation) 。
写概要无须加评论,只需:提取文本的关键信息,用自己的语言对关键信息重新措辞,最后要清晰、有逻辑、连贯地呈现要点。
1. 先要读懂、读透原作。然后在概要中,应包括原文中的主要事实,略去不必要的细节。
2. 安排好篇幅的比例,概要应同原文保持协调,用较多的文字写重要内容,用较少的文字写次要内容。
3. 注意要点之间的衔接,要用恰当的关联词语贯通全文,切忌只简单地罗列一些互不相干的句子。
4. 多用短句,多用概括性词语,少用具体描述性词语。不排斥用原文的某些词句,但不要照搬原文的句子。

The Merchant of Venice is one of Shakespeare's plays. Bassanio, a noble but penniless Venetian, asks his friend Antonio for a loan so that Bassanio can undertake a journey to woo Portia. Antonio, whose money is invested in foreign ventures, borrows money from Shylock in order to be able to assist Bassanio. However, if the loan cannot be repaid in time, Antonio will give Shylock a pound of flesh.
Title and author of the play
Main character(s)
Start of the play
News arrives that Antonio‘s ships have been lost at sea. Unable to get his money back, Shylock attempts to use justice to enforce a terrible revenge on Antonio: he demands his pound of flesh. Shylock’s revengeful plan is foiled by Portia, who turns the tables on (扭转局面,转败为胜) Shylock by an argument: he must take flesh only, and Shylock must die if any blood is spilled. Thus, the contract is cancelled. The play ends with the news that, in fact, some of Antonio's ships have arrived safely.
Climax
This play, in my opinion, focuses on several main themes, such as the strong friendship between Bassanio and Antonio, the strength of women's character of overcoming the restraints set by society of that time, and so on.
Conclusion
Make improvements to each other’s summaries and share them with the class.
Think about how well you used concise and precise language to summarise the play and what you could do to improve.
