ProjectA short filmWhat did you see in the film?
What do you know from the film?For reference:
It’s a group of pictures about Romas. Form it we can know the history of this special people. In the history, they were not accepted for many reasons.Discussion:1. Do you know that there is a group of people in the world who keep traveling from place to place?
2. Have you ever read some books or watched some films or TV programmes about these people?
3. Do you know who they are and why they are always traveling?Questions1) What does the word ‘wander’ mean and what does the title ‘the wondering Roma’ mean?
2) What do you think the article is going to tell us after reading the first paragraphs?Answers:
The word ‘wander’ means to move about or from place to place without any purpose. From the guidelines, we can know the title refers to the group of people, the Roma, who keep moving from place to place.
2. From the first paragraph, we can know that the article is about the history of the Roma including their society and language, and the historical and political reasons for their movement.Read the article once more to point out the two aspects of reasons for the Roma’s movement. For reference:
● the historical reasons for their movement
They were nomadic, meaning that they traveled between several locations during the year.
The Roma have traditionally resisted making permanent homes.● the political reasons for their movement
They objected to becoming citizens of one country and being forced to vote and pay taxes.
They refused to submit to any government regulations, preferring to engage in trade and live peacefully.
They had a bad reputation in Europe as liars and witches, and some of the Roma pretended to be religious pilgrims. They have been sent away to other parts of the world because of the collision between European culture and that of Roma.
They German Nazi Party plotted to wipe the Roma out because they identified the Roma as a dangerous group. Discussion:1) What differences are identified in the article that shows the Roma are a distinct cultural group?
2) What examples are given that show European’s prejudice against the Roma throughout history?Sample answers:
1. The article mentions that the Roma are nomadic and that they had a distinct native language. They also prefer to live in closed groups and dislike making permanent homes and submitting to any government. These differences show that the Roma are a distinct cultural group.2. Many Europeans disliked the Roma’s appearance as they were often in rags. The Roma’s traditions, such as fortune telling also caused people to think of them as witches. Some Roma also falsely claimed to be pilgrims in order to get food and many people thought the Roma were liars. Laws were in nearly every European country banning the Roma. During World WarⅡ, many Roma were killed by the German Nazi party, and in Switzerland Roma children were taken away from their parents until 1973.Language points1. This is perhaps most clearly seen in Roma’s native language, of which there are now approximately sixty different dialects. (P30) 这在罗姆人本族语言上可能最明显地表现出来,他们的语言现在大约六十种不同的方言。1). Attributive clause
Attributive: A word or word group, such as an adjective, that is placed adjacent to the noun it modifies without a linking verb; for example, pale in the pale girl. While a clause is used as an attributive, it is called attributive clause. 高考链接1.
