1. Warming up by leaning about Pygmalion
Pygmalion
Pygmalion (1938) — the non-musical film adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's 1913 stage play
Phonetics Professor Henry Higgins makes a bet with Colonel Pickering that he can turn a Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle into a lady within three months. To do so, he must transform her thick-accented voice, by coaching her to speak proper English, teaching her manners, and drilling her so she will be educated. “We were above that in ConventGarden… I sold flowers. I didn't sell myself. Now you've made a lady of me; I'm not fit to sell anything else.〞 “I'm a good girl, I am.〞
At a tea party, in her first public testing, she blurts out, “Not bloody likely.〞 However, she makes a spectacular debut at a society ball proving him right. The movie drastically diverges from Shaw's play at the end by indicating that Higgins falls in love with Eliza. This is really not a love story.
2. Pre-reading---about My Fair Lady
A priceless classic, My Fair Lady has bee one of the most popular musicals of all time. Based on George Bernard Shaw's 1913 play Pygmalion, the film swept the Academy Awards.
《窈窕淑女》可谓无价经典之作，是有史以来最受欢迎的音乐剧之一。该片以萧伯纳1913年的剧作《皮格马利翁》为蓝本，夺得了多项奥斯卡奖。
It tells a tale of a waif who was educated into being a lady.
该片讲述一个流浪者被教育成一位淑女的故事。
Egotistical linguist Professor Henry Higgins (Oscar winning Rex Harrison) bets his friend, Colonel Hugh Pickering, that he can transform Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle (Audrey Hepburn) into a lady in time for an important society ball.
chief executive officer自负的语言学教授亨利·希金斯〔奥斯卡奖获得者雷克斯·哈里森饰〕同他的好友休·皮克林上校打赌，他能及时将伦敦穷人区的卖花女伊莱扎·杜利特尔〔奥黛丽·赫本饰〕变为一位淑女，以便她能参加一个重要的社交舞会。
His gamble could pay off but the spirited Eliza is more of a handful than the Professor could have predicted. As she slowly bees more refined, and less reliant upon him, Higgins realizes, to his confusion, that he can’t live without her.
他的打赌也许会赢——但是活泼的伊莱扎远比教授想象的要难对付。随着她慢慢地变得越来越优雅，越来越独立于他，希金斯困惑地意识到自己已离不开她。
The film was nominated for 12 Oscars and won eight, including Best Picture and Director.
该部影片获得12项奥斯卡奖提名，最终赢得8项，包括最正确影片和最正确导演奖。
Professor Henry Higgins: Now, try it again.
Eliza Doolittle: The rime in spine sties minely in the plain.
Professor Henry Higgins: The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain.

Eliza Doolittle: Didn't I say that?
Professor Henry Higgins: No, Eliza, you didn't “say〞 that, you didn't even “say〞 that, now every night before you get into bed, where you used to say your prayers, I want you to say “The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain〞 fifty times. You'll learn to get much further with the Lord if you learn not to offend His ears.
Eliza Doolittle: I sold flowers; I didn't sell myself. Now you've made a lady of me, I'm not fit to sell anything else.
Mrs. Higgins: However did you learn good manners with my son around?
Eliza Doolittle: It was very difficult. I should never have known how ladies and gentlemen really behaved, if it hadn't been for Colonel Pickering. He always showed what he thought and felt about me as if I were something better than a mon flower girl. You see, Mrs. Higgins, apart from the things one can pick up, the difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves, but how she is treated. I shall always be a mon flower girl to Professor Higgins, because he always treats me like a mon flower girl, and always will. But I know that I shall always be a lady to Colonel Pickering, because he always treats me like a lady, and always will.
3. Readingfor forms
It is unlikely that you will understand 100 percent of the vocabulary in the text, especially at a first reading. Use first the context and then your own knowledge of the subject to help you guess the meaning of unknown words.
Read the text to: cut/ the sentence into thought groups, blacken the predicates, darken the connectives and underline all the useful collocations.
4. Copying and making sentences
Why learn collocations?
•javascript进度条    Your language will be more natural and more easily understood.
•    You will have alternative and richer ways of expressing yourself.
•    It is easier for our brains to remember and use language in chunks or blocks rather than as single words.
You are asked to read the text to find and copy all the useful collocations. You may make your own sentences with each of these collocations.
