高中英語作文教學之二
學生的創新精神和實踐能力在各方面的延伸乃至終身發展提供良好的基礎。因此,在英語寫作訓練中有時借助音樂等藝術形式,對豐富學生的想象力是一種有益的嘗試。
如Senior Book Ⅵ ,Unit 7中的The Waltz king 這一課文,根據內容,可設計讓學生聽一首Beethoven的命運(Fate),讓學生根據自己的理解,寫一篇作文,一位學生這樣寫到:
I am a graduate from high school, and I will enter for the Collage Entrance Examination. Whether I will be admitted to a collage, I will work harder than before , since our country is still poor and weak.
從作品中我們可以發現,借助音樂,學生的想象力得到了較大幅度的拓展。音樂藝術對學生的創造能力的發展具有獨特的作用。
四、靈活方法,發展想象
創造想象是嚴格的構思過程,它是由思維調節的。想象會產生全新的物象與情景、獨特的認識和感悟。一段文字、一篇文章,給不同的讀者,就有不同的想象余地。正如:A thousand readers, a thousand Hamlets.(一千個讀者,就有一千個哈姆雷特。)在英語作文教學中根據一定的線索或情節,提供學生廣闊的思維空間,讓學生進行想象描述(創造性的描述),會收到很好的鍛煉效果。
例如 After Twenty Years (Senior Book Ⅵ,Unit 5) 這一課,可要求學生在學完之后, 簡單續寫一個結尾。這是一篇根據O. Henry 同名原作改寫的文章。文章的故事情節雖然簡單,但很能挖掘、發揮學生的創造想象力。學生這樣寫到:
As soon as the police officer wanted to catch Bob by the arm, he took out a gun, aimed at the officer and said, I knew I was wanted, but I don''t want to be arrested anyway. Tell Jim Wells I will come to visit him one day. Just at that time, the police officer found himself surrounded by some strong men, gun in hand, pointing to him. Bob then walked into the street and got into a car parking there, followed by those strong men. The car soon disappeared.
另有學生這樣寫到:
The moment the officer caught Bob by the arm, he got rid of it and ran away at once. He was running down the street as fast as he could, when he was shot on the right shoulder. He turned round. To his great surprise, it was Jim Wells, his o ld friend. He fell on the ground and fainted.
在作文教學中,通過對一定的語言材料進行不同方式的處理,確實是鍛煉學生的思維,發展學生的想象力的一條重要途徑。當學生對當前的語言材料進行閱讀、處理時,進行了充分的分析、比較,又充分展示了自己的想象力,其思維得到了充分的發散。心理學研究已經證實,發散思維對個體的創造性有著重要影響,我們應該根據教材特點,結合教學內容,注意這種思維能力的訓練,并創造一些行之有效的教學技術??梢哉f,續寫結尾、續寫故事、改寫、擴寫等,都是高中英語作文教學中鍛煉學生思維,發展學生想象力的有效手段。
