StepⅠRevision

Check the homework.

Ask the students to review Act One: Fateful meetings.

A sample summary of the act:

Eliza Doolittle, is a poor, dirty flower seller in the turn of the century England. The Pygmalion in this film is Henry Higgins (Harrison), a linguist and phonetic expert who believes that speech is what really sets the classes apart. He bets with his friend Colonel Pickering that through a change in dress and speech, he can turn the lower class Eliza into a lady that will fool high society. The only thing in the bet for Eliza is that she might be able to open her own flower shop and somewhat escape her lower class roots.

Step Ⅱ Reading

Have the students read the play carefully and then answer the following questions.

After a few minutes.

T: Now answer my questions. First: Do you think Eliza is very ambitious?

S1: Yes, I think so. Because she still likes to learn even if Higgins treats her rudely.

T: Why did Pickering fancy himself?

S2: Because he can pronounce twenty-four distinct vowel sounds.

T: What habits did Eliza have?
