Unit 4 Pygmalion
【导语】 阿瑟·米勒(Arthur Miller)，美国剧作家。主要作品有戏剧《推销员之死》《萨勒姆的女巫》等。阿瑟·米勒对戏剧的理解鲜明而具有个性，他用平凡人、小人物的喜怒哀乐和悲情人生来反映残酷的社会现实。
Arthur Miller was an American playwright，best known for his plays Death of a Salesman and The Crucible，and his high-profile(高姿态的)private life.He was born in 1915，in New York City，and died in 2005 at the age of 89.
Arthur Miller was born to upper-middle class Jewish parents.When he was only a teenager，his family's business failed，and the family was forced to reduce the cost of living greatly，settling into a more comfortable middle-class life.Then Miller was forced to take up a number of simple jobs to earn money to pay college tuition fees，and at that time he read Dostoevsky's The Brothers Karamazov，which inspired him to become a writer.Eventually he saved enough money to pay tuition fees，and was able to attend University of Michigan，where he wrote No Villain，which won the Avery Hopwood Award.
Out of college，Miller immediately began working professionally as a writer.He was in the Federal Theatre Project until it was shut down，after which he wrote screenplays.During this time he also continued to improve
his playwriting abilities，and in 1940 he had his first play The Man Who Had All the Luck produced，and it afterwards won the Theatre Guild's National Award.
In 1947 he had All My Sons produced，which enabled him to win his first Tony Award，ensuring Miller's place in Broadway Theatre.His next play，Death of a Salesman，produced in 1949，cemented his reputation as a giant of a playwright.
At the time of its release，Death of a Salesman won a Tony Award for Best Author，the New York Drama Circle Critics' Award，and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama，making Arthur Miller the first playwright to win all three of these major awards for one play.

如何续写故事
文体特点
故事续写既考查学生对所学语言知识的运用能力，又考查学生的发散思维能力和创造力。该题型要求考生首先要读懂已有信息，不仅能读懂字面含义，还要合理想象，理清文章的脉络和关系。续写故事时，考生需要明白故事的发展进程、前因后果、地理位置变化、人物特征和情感等。在此基础上，考生顺着文章的思路，根据线索，发挥想象，对其后的情节进行合理预测，并用英语表达出来。同时，在组织语言时，续写故事表面看来难度不小，但在平时学习过程中，若能抓好词汇学习，注重词汇运用能力的培养，写出好的续写篇章是不成问题的。至于发散思维的培养，如果能按话题进行词汇复习，将孤立的词汇通过话题联系起来，必然能起到事半功倍的效果。
某英文杂志现举办英语故事续写大赛。请你根据所给故事的开头，展开合理的想象，将故事补充完整。

B级 能力提升
Ⅳ.阅读理解
阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
Pygmalion is a drama in which Shaw has made sentiments one of the principle themes of discussion.The Greek sculptor Pygmalion carved a statue and fell in love with it.Aphrodite (the goddess of love) turned the statue into a living woman named Galatea，who then became Pygmalion's wife.
The Shavian Pygmalion is Henry Higgins，a professor of phonetics，who picks up a flower girl，Eliza Doolittle，teaches her to speak as educated people do，and then successfully passes her off as a duchess.But she is a human being and cannot be treated as a machine.In the course of all his experiments and exhibitions，the professor only thinks of his own skill success and failure，but never stops to consider how the girl feels.When the experiment is over，he has a profound sense of relief that he has achieved triumph and has won his bet.Even now，the sentiment of the girl is of no account.The girl naturally protests against this dehumanized relationship between her and her teacher.She hurls the professor's slippers at him when he wants them and then leaves his place.But evidently，she has begun to feel for the professor and wants also to be felt for.
Now the question is what is the nature of Eliza's feelings for the professor with whom she has lived in close association for so long? In the last act，the girl says she would not marry him even if he had proposed (求婚)to her.The professor，curiously ineffectual (无效的) to sexual emotions，does not love any girl because he finds them to be rivals(对手)to his own mother.He wonders，if Eliza does not want to marry him，then what does she want from him? Old Mrs Higgins，who knows much about a woman says that it would have been better if he had thanked her and petted her and told her how wonderful she had been.Then perhaps she would not have fought with him.Every girl loves to be loved.Eliza herself says that she loves Freddy and he also loves her.Professor Higgins，however，remains as ever，an old bachelor.
【语篇解读】 本文描述的是语言学教授希金斯如何把一名卖花姑娘训练成英语发音被上流社会接受并认可的故事，从而抨击了当时英国腐朽保守的等级意识。
1. What does the underlined phrase“passes her off as”in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．Let her pretend to be. B．Dress her up as.
C．Make her become. D．Turn into.
解析：词义猜测题。根据前文“teaches her to speak as educated people do”以及下文“In the course of all his experiments and exhibitions”可知其意是“把某人冒充或假装为”。
答案：A
2．What kind of person do you think Higgins is according to the second paragraph?
A．He is a kind man.
B．He is a considerate man.
C．He is a selfish man.
D．He is a rude man.
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段第三句可知，希金斯只考虑自己的成败得失，从不考虑伊莱扎的感受，显然他是一个自私的人。
答案：C
3．Why does not Higgins marry Eliza?
A．Because she does not love him.
B．Because his mother does not like any girl to be her rival.
C．Because he likes to be a bachelor.
D．Because he doesn't love any girl for fear of them being his mother's rivals.
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段可知希金斯担心未来的妻子会成为他母亲的对手。
答案：D
4．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Shaw was in fact a Greek sculptor.
B．Higgins was experimenting with Eliza.
C．Eliza wanted to become an educated lady very much.
D．Higgins fell in love with Eliza at first sight.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段可知希金斯只是把伊莱扎当成一个试验品。故B正确。
答案：B
Ⅴ.七选五
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Curiosity is at the heart of lifelong learning.It not only gives children an advantage in school，but today's business leaders agree that it's also at the heart of successful organizations.
Psychologists view curiosity as a life force，vital to happiness，intellectual growth，and well-being.__1__It points students toward the knowledge，skills，relationship，and experiences that they need to live full and productive lives.
·__2__
Often，the temptation(诱惑)is to reward students when their curiosity leads to a desired outcome or good grade.But it's more important to notice and reinforce (加强)curiosity when you see it in action.When you praise students by describing how their questions and explorations are contributing to their own or classroom learning，you let them know that they are valued for their motivation，regardless of the grade they achieve.
·Teach students how to ask quality questions.
Quality questions are vital for curiosity.Google is great at finding answers but doesn't stimulate(激励)the formation of questions.__3__An excellent book for understanding the art of questioning is A More Beautiful Question by Warren Berger.
·Spread the curiosity around.
__4__Curiosity is contagious(有感染力的)in groups working toward a real-world common goal，helping to inspire questions and new ideas.
·Explore a variety of cultures and societies.
How is one culture or society uniquely different from another one？Encourage students to explore their genetic(基因的)or emotional links to other cultures.
__5__
A．Value and reward curiosity.
B．Teach students to be skeptics.
C．Good questions contain “why”“what if”and “how”．
D．Why do they relate to certain beliefs or values that other societies hold?
E The greatest advantage of curiosity lies in its power to motivate learning.
F．Create opportunities for more curious and less curious students to work together in learning.
G．How can students create a new poem，science experiment or product from their explorations?
