《英美文学基础》小组讨论发言稿 一、班级：07级英语教育四班第三组：510宿舍二、主讲：张烈红 三、讨论成员：王莉刘妍罗晓晴郭婷婷刘臻张莉娄枫琴陈金霞 四、主题：The Victorian Period--Charles Dickens & William Makepeace Thanckeray Victorian literature A.Background Chronologically the Victorian period roughly coincides with the region of Queen Victoria who ruled over England from 1836 to 1901.The period has been generally regarded as one of the most glorious in the English history.As a result of the Industrial revolution .England reached the highest point as a world power and the struggle between the working class and the capitalists became the basic contradiction in English social and political life. At the same time,the working conditions under which workers toiled were unimaginably brutal, especially in texible factories and coal mines where women and children were widely employed.The worsening living and working conditions, the mass unemployment and the new Poor Law of 1834 with its workhouse system finally gave rise to Chartist Movement (1836-1848).Amid such a class-struggle period, many writers turned to social criticism.So appeared a new literary trend:critical realism.These realists are mainly concerned with the society, the social system and the people in the society. B.Features of Victorian Literature Victorian literature,as a product of its age,naturally took on its quality of magnitude and diversity.It was many-sided and complex, and reflected both romantically realistically the great changes that were going on in people's life and thought .Besides, it truthfully respresented the reality and spirit of the age. The high-spirit vitality, the down-to-earth earnesteness,the good-natured humor and unbounded imagination are all unprecedented .In almost every genre it paved the way for coming century ,where its spirits,values and experiments are to witness their bumper harvest. Great writers and great works abounded. I.Charles Dickens 1.Life of Dickens Charles Dickens(1812-1870) was born in Portsmouth ,a poor British family,in 1812.He was a son of a petty navy office clerk.Because his father had been taken into prison for debts,he was forced to leave school to work at a blacking factory.In the factory,as a child he always felt hungry,lonely and ignored.The hardship and suffering inflicted upon the sensitive ,young Charles had left an ever-lasting bitter remembrance in his later life.In 1827,Charles entered a lawyer's office,and two years later he became a parliamentary reporter for newspapers.The journalistic experience not only enabled him to get acquainted with some inside knowledge of the British legal and political system,and gave him a chance to meet people of all kinds,but also laid a good foundation for his coming literary career.From 1833, Dickens began to write,occasional sketches of lond life,which were later collected and published under the tittle Sketches by Boz (1836),soon the Posthumous Paper of the Pick-wick Club(1836-1837) appeared in monthly installments.It made him the most popular English author of his time.Dickens was not only an editor but also an ower of several newspapers and magazines.He was also an enthusiastic participant or organizer of some charity activities. Dickens is one of the greatest critical realist writers of the Victorian age and also is known as an outstanding master of the Language.During his 34 years' creating,Dichens wrote 14 novels[The myster of Edwin Drood (《艾

大学英语专业学习计划 篇一：大学英语专业规划 英语专业学习规划 英语小教093 陈盼盼 对于英语专业的学生来讲，进入大学校园后会发现专业课程交相出现，英语有关书籍种类繁杂。不由得觉得科科重要，本本经典。但是只有科学的规划，合理的时间安排才会平衡自己学习上的需求与学校授课步伐上的差异，使听说读写译五种技能得到锻炼及提高，四年之后达到熟练掌握英语这门语言工具的能力。 大一： 这一年是英语专业学习压力比较小的时候。主要开设的课程有综合英语，语音，语法，教师基本技能及如思想品德等基础课程。从中可以看到这两个学期是在为专业打基础的时候。可以做的事情首先是锻炼自己的口语，这与一般学校头一二个月的时候进行规范语音的工作相一致。平时进行语言模仿，可以选择语音质量较高的电影，歌曲，配乐诗歌，散文朗诵及演讲等材料进行逐句模仿，大段背诵的形式来锤炼语音，让人在听觉上感到一种享受。其次是对单词的积累。可以结合大学英语六级或是专业英语四级的词汇手册作为参考，加大平时背诵的单词数量，为大二下学期专业四级的考试打下基础。通过阅读有关词根词缀构词法或相关的书籍
和其它形式的材料可以帮助揭示单词内在的规律。再次是对语言基础知识的积累。多读些关于语言学习的书和杂志，报刊。如各种简装本的名著，新兴词语汇集，英语学习，二十一世纪报等，它们可以提高对语言的感性认识，增强语感，而另一个非常实用但却容易被忽略的材料是像新概念这样的经典教材，语言准确，句型精美，通过精听，模仿，背诵这三个步骤可以在短时内提高语言基础。 大二： 如果还没有完成如语音表达标准，词汇捕捉敏锐这样的对语言表层现象的掌握，那么这一年要做的事情就显得很多。除了对上述能力的加强外，这个时期对语法的把握也是比较重要的事情。不要相信他人的观点：语法不再重要，没有语法也可以交流。这样的观点看起来是十分荒谬的。英语语言高度的逻辑性就体现在其精准的语法结构上。中西方思维逻辑的判别在这里也可以窥见一斑。阅读专业的语法教材或者参加语法培训都是可取的。在第二个学期，我的学习重点会转向英语专业四级考试。但经过上面三个学期的积累和第四学期大量做题实战加之权威书籍的指点想必我一次性通过的比例应该不小。 大三： 无论是什么专业的同学在这时都应该提早做前途归化。考不考研，考什么研是英语专业学习一直疑问的问题。但不
