某英語雜志的English Play欄目正在征集微型英語戲劇稿件。請根據(jù)下面的寓言故事用英語編寫兩個場景的話劇向其投稿。
在很久以前的一個陽光明媚的春天,一只獅子在草地上睡覺,一只老鼠來到草地上曬太陽。獅子醒來發(fā)現(xiàn)有些餓,決定吃掉老鼠。老鼠懇請獅子饒他一命,并承諾日后報答他。于是,獅子放走了老鼠。
過了一段時間,有一天獅子掉進了獵人布置的陷阱中的羅網(wǎng)里,直呼救命。聽到獅子的呼救聲,老鼠立馬趕到。他告訴獅子他要救他。隨后老鼠迅速咬斷了繩子,救出了獅子。從此,他們成了好朋友。擊生詞提示

?寫作支招
一) 寫作定性
本文定性為戲劇文體,具有人物對白口語化,情景敘述多樣化,語言運用簡練化,單場描寫話題化等特點。時態(tài)多為一般現(xiàn)在時、一般過去時、一般將來時、過去將來時、現(xiàn)在完成時和過去完成時等。語態(tài)視情況而定。表達形式上多為陳述句、疑問句和省略句;表達結(jié)構(gòu)上多為簡單句和并列句。表述時充分利用語境。
二) 難點突破
1.可用詞匯
On the grass, enjoy the sunshine, let sb. go,keep sth./sb. in mind,pay back/repay, for the sake of God,fall into,set free,after that, hence,from then on
2.結(jié)構(gòu)模仿
序言和結(jié)束語(Prologue and tag) ;用含一般現(xiàn)在時的簡單句描寫劇情的發(fā)生的背景和結(jié)局,降低讀者對劇情的理解難度和拉近讀者同劇情發(fā)生的時間距離。
It is the summer of 1903. Two old and wealthy brothers, Roderick and Oliver, have made abet ...(《百萬英鎊》第一幕第三場的開場白)
The owner, the hostess and the waiter all bow as Henry leaves.(《百萬英鎊》第一幕第四
場的結(jié)束語) .
舞臺說明(stage direction) :用形容詞、副詞、分詞或短'語等描寫說話者說話前、說話中和說話后的動作、表情或心理狀態(tài),言簡意賅地增強對白的感染力和讀者對劇中人物當(dāng)時心理的理解力。
Oliver; (happily) What luck!Brother,what luck! (Claps his hands together.) 對白(dialogue) :緊扣語境,充分運用省略句使得結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊,對白流暢;充分運用口語使得交流自然逼真。
Roderick:Young man,would you step inside a moment, please? Henry; Who"! Me, sir?
3.參考句型
sb. is doing sth. when sth. else happens.某人正在f故某事這時另夕卜一件事發(fā)生了If…,I'll ... Would you do sth.?
Scene I
On a sunny spring day long ,long ago ,a lion is napping on the grass when a mouse comes out to enjoy the sunshine next to the lion. Later the lion wakes up from his

科目:高中英語 來源: 題型:
One of my Chinadialogue colleagues in Beijing recently bought a Philips energy-saving light bulb to replace a standard one. He was happy with his choice. It may have cost 30yuan (just under US $4. 50) ―ten times the price of a filament(燈絲) bulb―but he wanted to save energy as part of his low-carbon lifestyle. And according to the shopkeeper, he would save,in the long run,much more than the 30yuan he was spending.
Yet only one month later,his expensive light bulb blew up,before he had saved even a small part of the purchase price. Will he stick to his high-cost, low-carbon lifestyle?
China's environmental organizations have started to advocate low-carbon lifestyles and the decrease of carbon footprints to help fight against climate change. But they have overlooked one fact;in China, low-carbon living comes at a high cost.
It means buying energy-saving bulbs and appliances, and environmentally friendly building materials and daily goods. Cost can no longer be the only standard for purchases. An energy-saving and environmentally friendly product is more expensive than a standard alternative― whether it's a simple light bulb or the house it shines. For average consumers, even buying an ordinary bulb is a huge burden. How can we persuade ordinary people to choose an energy-saving residence? This is not a trend they can afford to follow;perhaps this fashion is only for the rich.
Most consumers today do not cause huge carbon dioxide (C02) emissions. Their responsi?bility lies not in choosing a low-carbon lifestyle today, but in avoiding a high-carbon life in the future. The principle of "common but differentiated responsibility"―a basis of sustainable de?velopment―can be applied here as well.
In China, low-carbon living still is resisted by a lack of social infrastructure(基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施) .E-ven if your salary allows you to make that choice,nobody is there to help you accomplish it.
Consider energy-saving homes. You need to find out whether or not the developer has used natural materials wherever possible;how effective the insulation(纟色緣物、隔熱物) is;and what the green credentials of installed equipment are. You can read up a little, but you'll still be luck to avoid being puzzled by the developers' marketing. Many so-called energy-saving buildings are nothing of the sort,and some are even more energy-hungry than the average home―as Li Taige warned in his article "Energy-efficient buildings? Not always",on Chinadialogue last August.
( ) 1. What may probably be the best title of this passage?
A.To purchase a cheap bulb―your wise alternative.
B.To choose an energy-saving residence―a must of your life
C.To learn a low-carbon lifestyle―each citizen's responsibility
D.To learn a low-carbon lifestyle―a promising but difficult purpose ( ) 2. Why did the writer's colleague get an energy-saving light bulb?
A.He wanted to save some money.
B.He wanted to use a more powerful light bulb.
C.He was asked to do so by some organizations.
D.He wanted to try learning his low-carbon lifestyle.
( ) 3. We can infer from the passage that .
A.Using energy-saving bulbs and appliances is a fashion.
B.It's difficult for most Chinese to try to learn a low-carbon lifestyle.
C.Not all citizens have the same responsibility―learn a Sow-carbon lifestyle.
D.Most Chinese families cannot afford to purchase an energy-saving residence
( ) 4. What is the writer's attitude towards the low-carbon lifestyle?
A. infomative and entertaining B. supportive but cautious
C. negative but wise D. positive and active

What is it that makes people laugh? More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher(哲學(xué)家) Aristotle defined(定義) jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by showing we're better than someone else in a certain way. According to Aristotle and many other philosophers,all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons ― that is, putting it clearly, on showing that they are worse off than ourselves. Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone else's expense.
Showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes. Some?one may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty (殘酷) or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us. We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a ba?nana skin. The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society. This is probably the reason why some of the jokes,especially those involving cruelty,are so popular with certain people.
Besides, all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it's different from things which are happening around it. The same situation can be either sad or pleasant, depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is. If a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool, we don't laugh because nothing unusual has happened. But if a man in a smart suit falls in,the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh. A good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens, and so we laugh.
( ) 1. The underlined word "inferiority" in Paragraph 1 means .
A. someone that is better than someone else
B.something that is better than something else
C.someone that is as good as someone else
D.something that is not as good as something else
( ) 2. According to Aristotle all jokes depend mainly on .
A.resulting in a sense of success
B.showing inferiority in another person or group
C.having a good opinion of other people
D.making people laugh unexpectedly
( ) 3. What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A.To express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we like jokes.
B.When people are angry they would like to hear jokes.
C.People who like jokes are usually cruel.
D. Showing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes.
( ) 4. What will a good joke-teller always try to do?
A.Make an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation
B.Make different things happen at the same time.
C.Make a sad situation into a pleasant one.
D.Make people laugh at something unusual and out of place.
