Unit 7 Lesson 3 名师教学设计课时内容：A Musical genius主题语境：人与社会主题群：文学、艺术与体育子主题：音乐等领域的概况及其发展语篇类型：人物传记文本分析：[What]“A Musical genius”是一篇记叙文，讲述的是音乐天才贝多芬创作D小调第九交响曲的过程及这部交响曲首演的故事。

贝多芬是德国作曲家，被认为是世界音乐史上最伟大的作曲家之一，一生共创作了130多部音乐作品，其中D小调第九交响曲是在贝多芬失聪的情况下耗时几年完成的。

第九交响曲的首演是在维也纳一个非常著名的剧院里，这部交响曲取得了空前的成功。

[Why]通过阅读故事及补充的课外资料，使学生了解贝多芬一生坎坷，尤其是双耳失聪，这对于音乐家来说，是致命的打击，但是贝多芬没有接受命运的安排，他一生忍受着痛苦，不断地与自己苦难的命运作斗争，创造了一曲又一曲享誉世界的名曲。

这些乐曲或雄壮、或欢快、或静逸、或优美，都是他对命运最有力的反抗。

他的名言“我要扼住命运的咽喉，它休想使我屈服”，正是他对生活的态度，也是他一生的精神写照。

从贝多芬身上，学生可以学习他与命运抗争的不屈精神。

[How]本文作者以时间顺序，从what，who，when where，why，how及用第三人称展开描述，直接把故事的情节展现在读者面前，文章的客观性很强。

作者最后用直接引语代替间接引语的陈述，可以更客观、生动地反映他人对贝多芬的真实评价，使文章更加生动、具体。

1. When and how was Symphony No. 9 completed What was Beethoven thinking when he finished the symphony
Suggested Answers 1. “The whole time, Umlauf stood quietly by his side, skillfully guiding the orchestra.” The music ended but Beethoven continued to conduct. “It was not until Caroline Unger took his arm and turned him to face the audience that the great man had realized his symphony was a success.” The audience might think Beethoven was deeply lost in his own music. 2. She felt very very sorry that Beethoven couldn’t hear the music he composed. It was such a pity and she might feel it unfair for him. She must have wished Beethoven was not deaf.
1. ...but few might know how he created Symphony No. 9 in D minor and how its first show went. ……但是很少有人知道他是怎样创作D 小调第九交响曲的，以及这部交响曲首演是怎么进行的。 minor adj. (音乐)小调的，小的，不很重要的
