35、.be dying/anxious/eager for/to do sth.be hungry/thirsty for sth.be keen on/to do sth.课文预读海伦凯勒第12段译文海伦凯勒是一个很特别的女孩,她需要一位出色的老师。直到七岁的时候,她仍然不会说话、阅读和写字。这是因为海伦看不见,也听不到。因为交流上有这些严重的障碍,海伦的行为经常令人难以忍受。她固执、易怒,在别人不明白她的意思时,就常打破东西。安妮沙利文被请来帮助海伦。安妮是波士顿一所盲人学校的老师,她也曾在那里就读。安妮年幼的时候也曾有过视力问题,所以能够对海伦的困难产生共鸣。她的第一个目标是要停止海伦常引起
36、麻烦的行为。为了学习语言,海伦需要做这样重要的准备。她也需要很多的爱。当安妮和海伦第一次见面时,安妮就紧紧地拥抱了海伦。 第3段译文海伦将要学会理解拼写在她手上的单词。安妮的方法简单而直接。她将一件物品放在海伦的一只手里,然后在她的另一只手里拼写单词。安妮从玩具娃娃开始。她让海伦玩娃娃,然后在她的手里拼写字母“DOLL”。海伦以为这是个游戏。她在她的书我的生活故事中准确地描述了自己的兴奋:“我冲下楼梯跑向妈妈,举起手,拼写玩具娃娃的字母。我不知道自己在拼写一个单词,更不知道单词的存在;我只是简单地像猴子般地模仿着移动手指。” 第46段译文后来有一天,安妮带海伦来到了水井边。安妮将海伦的手放在水
37、的下方。当水流过一只手时,安妮在另一只手里拼写“water”一词。一瞬间,海伦突然明白了:手指的运动表示清凉的水正在流过她的手。这一宝贵知识给了她希望和欢乐。终于,词语世界向她敞开了。由于海伦理解了语言之谜,她非常渴望学习更多的词语并且尽可能多地使用它们。能看和听的孩子学语言很容易,但是对海伦来说,这是一个渐进的,有时是痛苦的过程。然而,结果是令人惊叹的。随着知识不断拓展,词汇不断丰富,海伦问的问题越来越多。这很快就使她发现更复杂的词汇,并且改变了她的思考方法。试着学习“爱(love)”这个词的过程是她记忆深刻的一次经历。她在自己的书我的生活故事里是这样描述的:第78段译文“我记得我第一次问爱
38、这个词的意思的那个早晨。这是在我知道很多词之前。我在花园里发现了几枝早开的紫罗兰花,我把花拿给我的老师沙利文小组轻柔地将她的手臂环抱着我,在我的手里拼写我爱海伦。什么是爱?我问道。她将我拉近一些,然后指着我的心说,它在这里。她的话使我感到非常困惑,因为那时我若不用手触摸就什么都不理解。”海伦对爱的意思还是不明白,但是她继续努力去理解。“我闻到她手里的紫罗兰花,一半用单词,一半用手势,我问了这样一个问题,爱是花的甜蜜吗?不是,我的老师说。”第910段译文海伦感觉到照耀着她们的太阳的温暖,指着上面问那是不是爱。当她的老师否定时,海伦既困惑又失望。“我感到奇怪的是老师不能告诉我什么是爱。”“思考”这
39、个词对海伦来说也是一个很难学的词,但是在做一件简单的事情时,她取得了突破性的进展。海伦正在沙利文小姐的帮助下制作项链时,注意到自己出了一些错。由于不能确定怎样改正,她停下来仔细地思考。当她这样做时,沙利文小姐摸摸她的头,在她的手里拼写“思考”这个词。“一瞬间,我明白了这个词便是我头脑中正在进行的这个过程的名称。”第1112段译文这是海伦第一次理解这样一个复杂的词一个她触摸不到实物的词。在那一刻,她的思想回到了“爱”这个词。当她再次思考它的意思时,太阳出来了。海伦指着太阳,又一次问老师那是不是爱。安妮回答海伦,解释说爱在某种程度上就像太阳和云。,“你知道,你不能触摸云彩,但是你能感觉到下雨你同样
40、触摸不到爱,但你却能体会到爱注入万物之中的甜蜜。没有爱,你不会快乐,也不想玩耍。”在那生动的一刻,海伦终于明白了“爱”这个词的美丽真谛。课文理解Task One:Fast Reading.Skim the text and finish the following question.What is the main idea of the text?The passage is mainly about the_experiences_of_Helen_Keller when_she_struggled_against_life.Judge the following statements t
