Unit 4 ADVERSITY AND COURAGE

Reading and Thinking: A Successful Failure

文本简析

本单元阅读文本的话题是英国探险家沙克尔顿带领一支28人的探险队乘坐“坚忍号”远征南极，被困长达两年，历经磨难却不放弃，最终全部生还的经过。旨在让高中生了解20世纪一次伟大的南极探险经历，以及船长沙克尔顿在极度恶劣的环境下冷静应对、坚韧不拔的精神和高超的领导智慧。通过学习，高中生能以勇于探索、顽强拼搏的心态去迎接生活的种种考验。

文本采用日记叙事文体，主人公珀西是一名19岁、崇拜沙克尔顿、对航海探险充满渴望的小水手。文本包含一则招探险队员的公告和三篇跨度约两年的日记。日记按时间为序，以第一人称的口吻记录了珀西从报名被拒到偷偷上了“坚忍号”，再到“坚忍号”被冰困住他们弃船在冰上扎营，和他们在大象岛等待救援时经受的煎熬和考验。主人公年龄与学生相近，以日记的方式呈现探险队经历的磨难，使得文本内容和立意容易为学生所接受，进而产生共鸣。标题“A

Successful Failure”是整个文本的浓缩提炼，说明他们经历生死考验，虽然没有到达原本的目的地，却在沙克尔顿的正确指挥下九死一生，安然归来。文本还使用了少量的心理描写和对话，生动刻画了环境的恶劣以及沙克尔顿的人格魅力和他在队员中传递的公正、关爱他人和坚韧不拔的精神力量。

在进行文本教学设计时，要帮助学生梳理关于逆境与坚毅的话题类语言，其中包括有关极度恶劣环境以及与之相关的情感的表达。此外，表示转折和强烈反差的功能类语言，如：but，however，otherwise等，也值得梳理。
