Every moment Esmeralda discovered some fresh defect in Quasimodo, as her glance travelled from his knock knees to his hunched back, from his hunched back to his single eye. How anyone could be formed in such a way was beyond her comprehension. Yet there was so much melancholy and so much gentleness spread over all this that she gradually adjusted to it.

In any case, he would not have heard her. He continued: 9 “Never have I viewed my ugliness as at the present moment. When I compare myself to you, I feel an immense pity for myself, poor unfortunate monster that I am! Be honest, to you I must resemble some savage creature. You, you are a ray of sunshine, a drop of dew, a birdsong, whilst I am something terrible, neither human nor beast.

You have forgotten an unfortunate person who attempted to kidnap you one night, this same person to whom you showed kindness when he was being punished. A drop of water and a little pity – that is more than I can repay with my life. You have forgotten that unfortunate soul, but he remembers it.” 15 She listened to him with profound tenderness. A tear swam in the eye of Quasimodo, but did not fall. He seemed to make it a point of honour to keep it at bay. (Adaptation from The Hunchback of Notre-Dame by Victor Hugo) =hold it back =consider it a matter of honor What does the sentence "A tear swam in the eye of Quasimodo, but did not fall” tell us about Quasimodo's personality? On one hand, it shows that Quasimodo is sensitive and gentle; on the other hand, it shows his strength and pride. 19 Activity 4 After Reading In what different ways do the two reading passages in this unit raise our awareness of physical appearance and personal qualities?

Activity 1 Lead-in Read about the author. Read the introduction to the novel and answer the questions.(Ex5) 1 What kind of person is Dorian Gray? 2 What message do you think the novel conveys? A corrupt (堕落的) young man who pursues eternal (everlasting) youthful beauty, but reveals his inner ugliness to all. We must learn to find beauty, understand beauty, and appreciate beauty. And we need to know inside beauty is more important than outside beauty. Activity 2 Reading This book by Oscar Wilde tells the story of Dorian Gray, a very handsome young man who spends his life only concerned with his own pleasure, regardless of the suffering he brings to others. The story starts with young Dorian having his portrait painted. His friend Lord Wotton talks about beauty and pleasure being the only important things in life. Fascinated by his words, Dorian wishes he could remain young and goodlooking always, with his portrait growing old instead of him. Soon afterwards, Dorian is surprised to find his wish has come true, after he meets Sybil, an innocent actress who falls in love with him. Dorian heartlessly abandons her just because she performs poorly one night. When he learns that Sybil has killed herself, Dorian finds his face in the painting has taken on a cruel look. He hides the painting away so that no one else may see it. For the next 18 years, Dorian engages in various evil deeds, even murdering the painter of the portrait. But he never feels guilty about the harm he is doing. His portrait ages and reveals his inner ugliness. One day, he suddenly comes to be fearful of his past crimes and wants to start a new life. But his portrait remains the same and reminds him of everything he has done. Feeling desperate, he tries to destroy the portrait with a knife, but it is he who is killed. His body is discovered,old and awful, while his portrait is young and handsome once again. In the story, what matters most to Dorian Gray is that he is good-looking, not that he has a good heart. He sacrifices his true self in pursuit of physical beauty and pleasure, which leads to his destruction in the end. Read the introduction again and find its structure.

Activity 3 Writing Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte Bronte and first published in 1847 tells the timeless story of the love between a poor young governess and a rich and mysterious gentleman. After leaving the orphanage where she has spent most of her childhood, Jane Eyre goes to work as the governess of the daughter of a wealthy but troubled landowner. As she comes to know the great house and the people who live and work within it, Jane begins to un cover the secret responsible for Rochester's temper and reticence. They fall in love but just when their happily ever after seems to be in sight, that secret threatens to tear them apart. Jane Eyre looks at how people should not be underestimated because of the way they look Jane might be small and plain, but she is also strong, courageous and independent. Although she is a woman and from a lower social class than Rochester, she wants to prove herself his equal in spirit. sample 1 Shylock is one of the literary characters of the Merchant of Venice, which is a famous novel around the world. Shylock had always been regarded as a greedy businessman all the time. But this was the surface view. He was a usurer, greedy and insatiable. When Antonio could not pay his debt on time, he refused the tenfold repayment. What he wanted was a pound of Antonio’s flesh, which was a reflection of his revenge. He was a Jew. The Jews were suppressed at that time. When Shylock got a chance to fight back, he became aggressive. Only when we understand the situation of the Jews at that time can we understand Shylock’s behavior. On the whole, Shylock is a complex character, greedy and pathetic. sample 2 By Mr. Able Book 6 Unit 1 Face values Presenting ideas 外研社2019版 选择性必修第二册 Work in groups.

Consider the following： Give your presentation and recommend your candidate to the class. Vote for the best presentation. the structure of your presentation useful words, expressions and structures VIRTUE is like a rich stone, best plain set; and surely virtue is best, in a body that is comely [ˈkʌmli] (秀丽的), though not of delicate features; and that hath rather dignity of presence, than beauty of aspect. Neither is it almost seen, that very beautiful persons are otherwise of great virtue; as if nature were rather busy, not to err, than in labor to produce excellency. And therefore they prove accomplished, but not of great spirit; and study rather behavior, than virtue. But this holds not always: for Augustus Caesar, Titus Vespasianus, Philip le Belle of France, Edward the Fourth of England, Alcibiades of Athens, Ismael the Sophy of Persia, were all high and great spirits; and yet the most beautiful men of their times. In beauty, that of favor, is more than that of color; and that of decent and gracious motion, more than that of favor. That is the best part of beauty, which a picture cannot express; no, nor the first sight of the life. Extended reading Of Beauty By Francis Bacon There is no excellent beauty, that hath not some strangeness in the proportion. A man cannot tell whether Apelles, or Albert Durer, were the more trifler; whereof the one, would make a personage by geometrical proportions; the other, by taking the best parts out of diverse faces, to make one excellent. Such personages, I think, would please nobody, but the painter that made them. Not but I think a painter may make a better face than ever was; but he must do it by a kind of felicity (as a musician that maketh an excellent air in music), and not by rule. A man shall see faces, that if you examine them part by part, you shall find never a good; and yet altogether do well. If it be true that the principal part of beauty is in decent motion, certainly it is no marvel, though persons in years seem many times more amiable [ˈeɪmiəbl] (可爱的); pulchrorum autumnus pulcher; for no youth can be comely but by pardon, and considering the youth, as to make up the comeliness(美丽). Beauty is as summer fruits, which are easy to corrupt, and cannot last; and for the most part it makes a dissolute [ˈdɪsəluːt] (放荡的) youth, and an age a little out of countenance [ˈkaʊntɪnəns] (害羞的); but yet certainly again, if it light well, it maketh virtue shine, and vices blush.

Complex Characters Historical Context Social Commentary Symbolism Emotional Impact Innovation Overall, "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" is celebrated as a masterpiece of literature due to its compelling(引人入胜的) characters, rich historical detail, profound themes, and enduring relevance. The book is not only a compelling narrative but also a reflection on the human condition and the complexities of society. The novel explores themes such as social injustice, fate, love, and the clash(conflict) between the secular (世俗的) and the sacred. It vividly portrays the architectural splendor of Notre-Dame Cathedral, which serves as a central symbol throughout the story. Hugo's detailed descriptions of Paris immerse readers in the atmosphere of medieval France. Quasimodo, despite his physical deformities, possesses a kind heart and a deep sense of loyalty. Esmeralda, on the other hand, faces persecution (迫害) due to her ethnicity and is pursued by various characters. The story unfolds amidst political intrigue /ɪnˈtriːɡ/ (阴谋), religious fervor /ˈfɜːrvər/ (热情), and personal conflicts, resulting in a tragic climax. theme exploration comprehension [ˌkɒmprɪ'henʃn] n. an ability to understand the meaning or importance of something comprehend ___________________ adj.综合性的；全面的；有理解力的 comprehensive __________________vt.理解；包含；由...组成 beyond one’s comprehension ______________ beyond one’s understanding 44 Lavf58.29.100 Bilibili VXCode Swarm Transcoder v0.7.52 $$
