16、owing of a motion picture on May 22, 1891, at Thomas Edisons workshop in New Jersey consisted of a polite man who bowed to the audience, smiled, waved, and took off his hat. Thus, the motion picture industry was born and began to develop quickly. Today, we can see many kinds of films, such as action

17、 films like “House full of flying daggers”, war films like “The Boys in Company”, etc. Today well mainly talk about horror films. What is a horror film, do you know?S1: A horror film is a kind of film in which strange and frightening things happen. Horror films often cause fear or shock in the audie

19、ter was out of control and killed many people. In the end Frankenstein died in the chase of the monster and the monster ended his life in the ice and snow.

20、 ugly, with wrinkled skin, yellow eyes and black lips. Ask the students to read the short passage. T: Frankenstein is the world-famous story of a doctor whose brilliant mind gets the better of him, one of the first and certainly most enduring Gothic novels of the English literary tradition. Many fil

21、ms have been made on it. The classic monster or horror film of all time, director James Whales Frankenstein (1931) is the screen version of Mary Shelleys Gothic 1818 nightmarish novel of the same name. Now read about the background passage and say what new things you have learnt. S4: Ive learnt that

26、nkenstein. Now please read the text about the story and finish the Exercises 2 and 3.Check the answers with the students. Task 2: Ask the students to read the text again and then finish Exercises 1 and 4.Sample answers to Exercises 4: 1) The monster has human emotions, he has eyes, he can breathe, h

27、e has veins, hair, skin, teeth, lips, hands and he can make sounds.2) Frankenstein created the monster by using bones from dead bodies.3) Because the monster had killed his wife, his brother and his best friend.4) The monsters appearance: ugly, huge, with wrinkled yellow skin, yellow eyes, black hai

28、r and lips and white teeth.5) Because the monster he created was too ugly. 6) What Frankenstein had wanted more than anything in the world is to give life to the lifeless matter. 7) Because Frankenstein had a nightmare. 8) Because the monster wanted to kill him. 9) Frankenstein hid in the garden and

29、 stayed there till morning after running out of the room for the second time. 10) Because the monster was too ugly, frightening and had killed many people. Task 3: Ask the students to discuss the questions in Exercise 5.Sample dialogues:1. S1: Frankenstein had successfully created the monster, so it

30、 was easy for him to make a wife for the monster. But he refused, why?S2: I think he was afraid to make another ugly monster, which might make things worse. S1: I dont think so. If Frankenstein had created a wife for the monster, things would have become better.S2: You mean, it would make the monste

31、r happy?S1: Yes. And maybe the monster could be under the control of his wife.S2: That would be better. 2.S1: Dreams are sometimes very strange. You might dream about something that would happen in real life. Why do you think the scientist dreamt about his fiance?S2: Maybe the same story went with t

32、he scientist. He had already sensed something. He had already felt that something bad would happen. Just as we often say, dreams are but what human beings think of. S1: You are probably right. But I think it was because Frankenstein was too frightened at his creation.3.S1: When the scientists woke f

33、rom his nightmare, he saw the monster was standing by his bed as if he wanted to say something. What do you think the monster might have said?S2: He might have said, “Hey, my creator. I really feel lonely and unhappy without any friends to talk and play with. Since you have given me life, why not gi

34、ve me happiness?”S1: And I think he might have said like this, “My master! Youd better create a wife for me because I feel lonely and unhappy. Or else, I would kill your fiance!”S2: Or, he might have said, “Oh, God! I feel terribly lonely and unhappy, could you please make a wife for me?”4.S1: Frank

35、enstein created the monster, but he was frightened to see it. Maybe he didnt know how to face his ugly creation. Perhaps it was not the kind of thing that he had expected. How do you think of it? S2: I dont think Frankenstein was right to be frightened by the monster. Because when he made the monste

36、r, he should have known how to control it.S1: I think Frankenstein was right to be frightened by the monster. Because he just awoke from a nightmare, maybe his heart was still fluttering with fear. When he suddenly saw the monster standing by his bed and trying to keep him there, he couldnt help fee

37、ling frightened. 5.S1: In the story, the monster killed the scientists brother, fiance and his best friend and then ended his life in the ice and snow. The scientist himself died too in the arctic. Do you think the scientist could have done something to prevent these happening?S2: Yes. I think he sh

38、ould have made some other things to guard against the monster. S1: He should have thought of what else he would bring to the world with his creation.S2: The monster killed human beings and escaped. So the scientist should have taken some measures to limit the movement of the monster. Maybe he should

39、 have taught him something in case he did something terrible. S1: I quite agree with you. The scientist should have made a remote control to guide the monsters behavior. 6.S1: The monster was really a great imagination of the novelist, so did the way the scientist created it. How do you feel about t

40、he monster? And why?S2: I think the monster is a terrible creation. When he was created, he became powerful and out of human beings control. He might have done everything he had wished. S1: I think the monster in the story is just like something in our society. Humans may do something without realiz

41、ing the terrible results they would bring about. For example, the abnormal babies, the new and strange diseases these years, etc. And whats more, many people today want to clone human beings. This sounds more terrible. S2: I think the monster, to some extent, is like an animal which is badly treated

42、 by human beings. The monster had emotions and could feel loneliness and unhappiness. That is the way most animals feel. So I think if the monster was treated well by the scientist, things would have been better. 7.S1: Though the story is horrible and unbelievable, I think it was the initiation of c

43、loning today. So we should draw lessons from the story and prevent the story from happening in reality. S2: Youre quite right. This story reminds us of the terrible disasters that happened these years, such as the tsunami, the SARS, etc. It warned us that human beings might create something unexpect

44、ed and absolutely out of control. S1: From the story, we can see the shadow of cloning today. Frankenstein created the monster which resembled a human being. Actually, it was kind of cloning. Once it had been created, it might have become anything terrifying. So I think scientists must be careful wh

45、en they begin to create something. Task 4: Text analyzing T: The text is obviously divided into two parts. The first part is a simple introduction of the story. What is the second part mainly about?S1: The second part is an extraction of the story. It is mainly about how Frankenstein felt about his

46、creation. T: How did Frankenstein feel about the monster?S2: He felt the monster was too frightening and ugly. And he regretted for what he did. T: The second part is mostly about Frankensteins feelings about the monster. Now read the text and find out the expressions the author used to describe his

47、 feelings. Sample answers:. and horror and disgust filled my heart. I wish I had not created this creature, I wish I was on the other side of the world, I wish I could disappear!I felt unable to stay in the same room as him.I hid in the garden and stayed there till morning, terrified by what I had d

48、one. I wish I had not done this terrible thing, I wish I was dead!Task 5: Summary T: In the summer of 1816, nineteen-year-old Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin and her lover, the poet Percy Shelley (whom she married later that year), visited the poet Lord Byron at his villa beside Lake Geneva in Switzerlan

49、d. Stormy weather frequently forced them indoors, where they and Byrons other guests sometimes read from a volume of ghost stories. One evening, Byron challenged his guests to each write one themselves. Marys story, inspired by a dream, became Frankenstein. Later on, films began to be made on it. Th

50、e monster in the story was just an imagination, but it might be the origin of todays cloning. The more you think, the more time you have. So do more thinking and imagination from now on, youll get more than others. Step III Homework1. Find more about the film Frankenstein and retell the story. 2. Pr

53、ry. T: Frankenstein is both a best science fiction and a most famous horror film. The monster was the creation of Frankenstein, who sought to gain full and complete understanding of life and death by discovering a way to give life to lifeless matter. Frankenstein worked for several years to bring hi

54、s creation to life, only to immediately avoid seeing his creation the moment he succeeded. Why? What happens to Frankenstein and his monster? Now please retell the story. Lets do it this way: The whole class will be divided into two teams. Each one of the members has thirty seconds to take turns to

55、retell the story. When one member of a team finishes, one member of the opposite team should continue the story where the former team member ends his / her story. A sample retelling of the story: S1: It was a dark night. Frankenstein and his hunchback assistant Fritz stole a body from a grave and an

56、other from a gallows. Later Fritz was sent to a medical university where he was to steal a brain for Frankensteins creature. Sa: He accidentally dropped the glass jar with the brain and instead took another, without noticing the jars label “abnormal brain”. Meanwhile Frankensteins fiance Elizabeth a

57、nd his friend Clerval planned to visit Frankenstein in his laboratory. S2: After receiving a strange letter from Frankenstein, Elizabeth became worried about Frankenstein. Dr. Waldman told her that her husband-to-be had left university and was involved in strange experiments. This made her more anxi

58、ous. Sb: The three arrived just in time to attend Frankensteins final experiment, the creation of an artificial human being, which Frankenstein gave it life by exhibiting it to electricity created by a thunderstorm. S3: Unfortunately, the creature turned out to be an ugly and huge monster unable to

59、make any sound. When the enraged creature becomed troublesome, Frankenstein locked it away in the cellar. Sc: But the monster broke free. Unable to truly see, and having no understanding of his surroundings, the monster left Frankensteins lab and eventually ended up in a forest, where it slowly beca

60、me aware of its environment. Learning to feed itself, the creature made the mistake of wandering into a local village, only to be driven off by a hail of stones. Lost and alone, the creature then took shelter in a small shed set next to a tiny cottage. S4: Spending almost two years in this shed, the

61、 creature observed the actions of the people who lived in the cottage and thus learned to speak. He also learned to read, and perused at length a number of books he discovered in a lost suitcase. Desiring companionship, he helped the cottagers in the night, cutting wood and clearing the ground as ne

62、eded. Eventually, he attempted to befriend them by speaking with the eldest of the villagers, a blind man. Interrupted by the rest of the family, he was beaten and chased off.Sd: Realizing he was truly alone, the creature retreated to the Swiss Alps, encountering Frankensteins younger brother along

63、the way. He murdered the child and implicated Justine, a servant for the Frankensteins, for the crime, which resulted in her execution. Discovered by Frankenstein himself, the creature asked for forgiveness, and negotiated a deal with him. If Frankenstein would build a mate for the monster, he promi

64、sed to leave human habitation for some desolate place. Frankenstein, torn between guilt at his creation, and hatred for the monsters actions, agreed.S5: Frankenstein traveled to the Orkney Islands to make his creature and was about halfway finished when he decided he could not inflict a second monster on the human race, and destroyed his latest creation. The monster, enraged by this, informed Frankenstein “I shall be with you on your wedding-night.” Frankenstein then left the island, spending ti
