AGeorge Bernard Shaw was an Irish playwright who was born in 1856, and died in 1950. Although he wrote music as well, he most enjoyed writing plays, with the purpose of explaining a social message, and making it more memorable with the use of comedy while doing so. Some of his plays direct people's attention to the problem of education, religion and government, however one topic he often considered was the exploitation (剥削) of the working class.As a socialist, he played a role in the Fabian Society, whichwas a British socialist movement, writing brochures and leafletsfor them. He even married a fellow member of the Society, calledCharlotte PayneTownshend. He was a w onderful speaker, and gavespeeches on equal rights in politics for men and women, how tolive healthy lifestyles, and condemning the attitudes of the rich towards the poor. This socialist attitude of Bernard Shaw influenced many of his writings, including Pygmalion, which has become a classic.The play was first shown in 1913 in Vienna, with Shaw himself as the director. Shaw chose Mrs. Patricia Campbell to play the role of Eliza, although many thought that she was too old for the role at the age of 49. Shaw claimed that he had written the role with her in mind, and only she would play Eliza. Higgins was played by Sir Herbert Tree. It has now become more popular, due to the 1964 musical My Fair Lady, which is based on Pygmalion.语篇解读:本文为记叙文。

2019-2020年高中英语 Unit 4 Pygmalion George Bernard Shaw素材新人教版选修8Irish dramatist, literary critic, a socialist spokesman, and a leading figure in the 20th century theater. Shaw was a freethinker, defender of women's rights, and advocate of equality of ine. In 1925 he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. Shaw accepted the honor but refused the money.George Bernard Shaw was born in Dublin, where he grew up in something close to genteel poverty. "I am a typical Irishman; my family came from Yorkshire," Shaw once said. His father, George Carr Shaw, was in the wholesale grain trade. Lucinda Elisabeth (Gurly) Shaw, his mother, was the daughter of an impoverished landowner. She was 16-years younger than her husband. George Carr was a drunkard - his example prompted his son to bee a teetotaller (滴酒不沾的人). When he died in 1885, his children and wife did not attend his funeral. Young Shaw and his two sisters were brought up mostly by servants.A man of many causes, Shaw supported abolition of private property, radical change in the voting system, campaigned for the simplification of spelling, and the reform of the English alphabet. As a public speaker, Shaw gained the status of one of the most sought-after orators in England. In 1895 Shaw became a drama critic for the Saturday Review. Articles written for the paper were later collected in OUR THEATRES IN THE NINETIES (1932). Music, art, and drama criticism Shaw wrote for Dramatic Review (1885-86), Our Corner (1885-86), The Pall Mall Gazette (1885-88), The World (1886-94), and The Star (1888-90) as 'Corno bi Basetto'. His music criticism were collected in SHAW'S MUSIC (1981). After lacing a shoe too tightly, an operation was performed on his foot for necrosis; Shaw was unable to put his foot on the ground for eighteen months. During this period he wrote CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA (1901) and THE PERFECT WAGNERITE (1898).The Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen had a great influence on Shaw's thinking. For a summer meeting of the Fabian Society in 1890, he wrote THE QUINTESSENCE OF IBSENISM (1891), in which he considered Ibsen a pioneer, "who declares that it is right to do something hitherto regarded as infamous." Shaw's early plays, WIDOWER'S HOUSES (1892), which criticized slumlandlords, as well as several subsequent ones, were not well received. His 'unpleasant plays', ideological attacks on the evils of capitalism and explorations of moral and social problems, were followed with more entertaining but as principled productions. "To a professional critic (I have been one myself) theatre-going is the curse of Adam. The play is the evil he is paid to endure in the sweat of his brow; and the sooner it is over, the better." (from 'Preface' to Saint Joan) . CANDIDA was a edy about the wife of a clergyman, and what happens when a weak, young poet wants to rescue her from her dull family life. But it was not until JOHN BULL'S OTHER ISLAND (1904) that Shaw gained in England a wider popularity with his own plays. In the Unites States and Germany Shaw's name was already well-known. Between 1904 and 1907 The Royal Court Theatre staged several of his plays, including Candida.In his plays Shaw bined contemporary moral problems with ironic tone and paradoxes, "Shavian" wit, which have produced such phrases as "He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches", "England and America are two countries divided by a mon language", "Christianity might be a good thing if anyone ever tried it", and "I never resist temptation because I have found that things are bad for me do not tempt me." Discussion and intellectual acrobatics are the basis of his drama, and before the emergence of the sound film, his plays were nearly impossible to adapt into screen. During his long career, Shaw wrote over 50 plays. He continued to write them even in his 90s. George Bernard Shaw died at Ayot St. Lawrence, Hertfordshire, on November 2, 1950. He was cremated and it was his wish that his ashes be mixed with those of his wife, Charlotte - she had died seven years before, "aowed and crippled, furrowed and wrinkled," as Shaw depicted her in a letter to H.G. Wells. Since the days of the silent films, Shaw had been a fan of motion-picture. He also played in the film Rosy Rapture - The Pride of the Beauty (1914). Shaw did not like much of the German film version of Pygmalion (1935), and the penniless producer and director Gabriel Pascal persuaded the author to give him the rights to make films from his plays. "Mr Pascal, you're the first honest film producer I have ever met," Shaw told him at their first meeting and gave him a pound note. Pygmalion, produced by Pascal and directed by Anthony Asquithand David Lean (uncredited), was a great success. In one article, Pascal was picked with the Pope and Hitler as one of the ten most famous men of 1938, but his career ended in the financial fiasco of the spectacle Caesar and Cleopatra (1945). Among several other films inspired by Shaw's plays are Saint Joan (1927), How He Lied to Her Husband (1931), Arms and the Man (1932), Major Barbara (1941), and My Fair Lady (1964). Pascal's co-director in Major Barbara was David Lean, but for thousand pounds Lean agreed to give the full credit to Pascal.。

While mostpeople were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometres away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性) as a whole. And it has influenced(影响) us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.50. Why was the bike so important to the couple?A. The man’s job was bike racing.B. It was their only possession(财产).C. It was nice Kona 18 speed.D. They used it for work and daily life.51. We can infer from the text that____________.A. the couple worked 60 hours a week.B. people were busy before Christmas.C. the stranger brought over the bike.D. life was hard for the young family.52. How did people get to know the couple’s problem?A. From radio broadcasts.B. From a newspaper.C. From TV news.D. From a stranger.53. What do the couple learn their experience?A. Strangers are usually of little help.B. One should take care of their bike.C. News reports make people famous.D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.1-5 A BAAC6-10 CAADB11-15 BBCDB16-20 BAADB21-25CCBBD 26—45 DBABC DBADD BCCAA BBCBC46-53 DCBA DDBD。

AIn mid- November of 1963, an island was born in the North Atlantic, some 20 miles off the southwester n coast of Icela nd.lt had give n only one sig n of its comin g.For three days, farmers on the neighboring Vestmann Islands had noticed a bad smell in the air like the odor of rotten eggs.Early on the morning of November 14, the captain of an Icelandic fishing ship saw black columns erupting from the sea through his telescopes.He suspected that he was seeing a volcano rising from the ocean.The hours that followed proved him right.He was watching the volcanic eruption that built the island later named Surtsey.Some days earlier, a volcano had started to erupt 425 feet below the surface of the sea.It poured out gases and volcanic ash and cinder.They began to build a mountain.By the morning of November 15, the top of the volcano was 33 feet abovethe water and still growing rapidly.Columns of smoke and gases rose two miles intothe air.Violent eruptions continued through the winter.In April 1964, the violent eruptions stopped, andlava began to flow.Surtsey ,it seemed, had come to stay.To earth scientists and to biologists, Surtsey was endlessly fascinating.It offered a chance to study a new volcano and to see new land take shape.Earth scientists hoped that by studying what was happening to Surtsey, they would gain a better understanding of the forces behind its growth.Surtsey rose from a huge underwater mountain range that runs down the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and is called the Mid- Atlantic Ridge.The ridge is the center of many earthquakes, and it is highly volcanic.Here and there its volcanic action has built mountains that thrust( 猛推)through the surface of the ocean, creatingsmall islands such as Surtsey.Long ago vast outpourings of lava from the ridge built the big island of Iceland.The ridge, however, is much more than a builder of islands.It is a sign of powerful forces at work within the earth.Many earth scientists are certain that these same forces are builders of continents and mountains and are the cause of the earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.They see the ridge as a key to understanding the most basic secrets of the earth.These forces helped to shape our planet when it was young, to give it land and sea and air, and so to make it the kind of planet where life could develop.( )1.What was the very first sign of Surtsey?A.Some smoke.B.Explosions.C.An unusual smell.D.A violent storm.( )2.What do we know about Surtsey?A.It is a huge underwater mountain range.B.It is located 20 miles off Vestmann Islands.C.It took Surtsey almost one year to come into being.D.It was produced by the strong forces within the earth.( )3.Why is studying Surtsey important to scientists?A.It tells more about the formation of the earth.B.It warns people of dangerous volcanic eruptions.C.It leads to the discovery of new energy sources.D.It helps predict when new islands will be formed.( )4.What is the passage mainly about?A.How an island was born.B.Where Surtsey rose from.C.What are the secrets to volcanic eruptions.D.Why the Mid - Atlantic Ridge is important.BLiterature arts in high school were absolute torture ( 折磨) for me.I hated reading stories and novels that my English teacher picked only to have discussions about the stories because I didn't even understand.One day ,my teacher picked The Gift of the Magi byO .Henry.Because I liked this story so much ,I began to readmore of his work.The endings in O .Henry's stories always leave the readers surprised and his eye for detail is almost poetic and can make the readers feel as if they were part of the story. The Gift of the Magi is about a young married couple who sacrifice their only two worthy possessions to buy each other a Christmas present.This story is about true love and sacrifice.Now ,many years later ,I still remember this story. The Furnished Room is a horror story about the love and devotion from a young man ,who is desperate to find his missing lover.The story is tragic. The Ransomof Red Chief is actually a humorous story about a kidnapping that has gone all wrong. A Retrieved Reformation tells the tale of a thief who decides to give up his criminal career and do good deeds ,which is moving.These are just a few of the many ,many stories that O .Henry wrote and that I've enjoyed over these years.O.Henry was the pen name of the American writer William Sydney Porter.He was born on September 11,1862 and died of illness on June 5,1910.His first story was published under his pen name,O.Henry.He published hundreds of stories.In honor of O.Henry's contributions to American literature ,the O .Henry Memorial Award was founded in 1918 to award the author of the best American short story.( )5.Before reading The Gift of the Magi,the authorA.had little interest in English classesB.doubted his English teacher's teaching methodC.disliked the reading materials picked by his teacherD.liked to discuss the stories he had read with his teacher( )6.What's the main characteristic of O .
